Well, it’s been a while since I last posted, but not much happened. Summer days are gone and autumn is in full swing right now. It’s pretty cold and humid at times, but autumn also brings great light and awesome colors! So when the sun comes out and we go for a walk I always bring my camera. Below you can see the results of the latest strolls we took around Karlsruhe Waldstadt.

I have to admit that all of these shots were edited with my brand new copy of Photoshop Elements 9 to bring out the mood I wanted and get them closer to how things “really” looked like. I used my Canon zoom lens for all of the shots, I like the depth of field it gives more than the kit lens. Still learning to use the camera settings to get the feel I want and to get to know what lighting conditions need what settings.

In other news I got several steps closer to completing my basic equipment. Last week Amazon delivered some nice things, including a speedlight (Canon 430EX II) and several days later I also got a diffusor for that and a remote cable to unleash it from the camera mount. I really like the speedlight, shooting indoors it makes an enormous difference. And *drumroll* last but not least I finally got myself a tripod. Went with the recommendation from my friend Tilo and bought a Velbon Ultra Luxi L, pretty darn good thing. Now there’s only two more things on my wishlist: a remote trigger for the camera and a 50mm lens
