Burgudy E-Session Part II - San Francisco

Recently, Burgess and Judy were gracious enough to be models, yet again, for Myron and me to shoot. This time we went to San Francisco. The day before the weather was in the 70's without a cloud in the sky. The day we went to shoot, it was freezing cold and completely cloud covered. Less than ideal, but we decided to shoot anyways. Here are some of the shots. For the full set, go to my flickr page.












This last one, for some reason I really like it. Although the pose was incredibly uncomfortable for Judy. Thinking back, maybe just one arm around Burgess' neck would've been a better pose(and more comfortable).

High ISO. Good Enough???

So, with the spiffy new camera came some questions as to how good really is the high ISO performance. Here are a couple samples. Decide for yourself:

Shot at ISO 4000. Straight out of camera.


Same shot, with some post processing.


ISO 3200. Straight out of camera.

Ashley Herman - Happy 1 Year Birthday!

Many years ago, I used to know Sherri as Sherri Sakamoto. Years after goofing around in our high school Calculus class, she's now happily married with a beautiful baby girl, Ashley. I was fortunate enough to join them in a little picnic to celebrate Ashley's first birthday. It was a super hot day at Heather Park in Walnut Creek so we spent a lot of time huddled up in the shade. Babies everywhere!
