Old Photographs (from N1) 2

More Flickr retroactive albums are online. A new Flickr collection was created, titled "Travels".

They include:
Hoover Dam
Las Vegas
Disneyland

Old Photographs (from Sony N1)

I have decided to engage in the process of adding some of my previous photos, taken prior to getting a Flickr account.

These albums and sets span most of what happened post-graduation in 2006. I am doing them in reverse order, with the more recent albums first. These were before I started to truly care about photography, so they are more documentary than artistic. I tried to fix them in post, but to little avail.

They include:
Fall 2007 Misc
Thanksgiving Day Parade
Keli at Cornell
Fall Break with Will
Move In, Rush, and Random

Aspect Ratio for POTD

After playing with the D40 yesterday, I have decided to switch POTD's aspect ratio from 4x3 to 3x2. The result will be more of a widescreen view, thereby making things appear better that they are. Check out today's POTD.

In case you did not know, most cameras (of the point-and-shoot variety) give an aspect ratio of 4x3. This is similar to what televisions project as letterbox. These days it just doesn't look too appealing. DSLRs on the other hand, shoot in 3x2 (or 6x4) and it is more standard. After being reminded of this fact, I will be switching the POTD aspect ratio to 3x2. I will still shoot with the Sony N1, however. I just have to be more careful with my framing, since I will fix it in post.

Edit: There is a 3x2 mode on my point-and-shoot that I forgot about. Nice...
