from my Flickr stream, going thru the pics in order that they have been viewed the most to least, making some changes that gets them looked at more. just because it`s a old photo, doesn't mean I don`t want people to enjoy it, otherwise i`d just delete it right?

STOP OR YIELD

Ironicly, here in Saskatoon most drivers treat the stop signs as yield signs (or suggestions). Maybe this slows more people down?

Day5 of my 365

New toy

Got my birthday present to myself today (a bit early)!!!!

 Ordered a new 24mm f2.8 wide angle lens. Came in today!! Whoohoo!

Haven`t played with it yet :-( My very first Prime lens.

 While I was at my store, I asked if they would price match a sale at Best-Buy on another lens I want. They said sure until I showed them the ad. The boss looks up the lens on the computer and laughs, say nope, the sale is far below actual COST, and there`s no way Best-Buy even planned on stocking any of them. They use the ad to sucker you in then hope you buy something while your there...not leave pissed off like I do. lol.
 I looked at there site online the DAY the sale started and they were "SOLD OUT".

P&S high ISO in pitch black

 Was from my shots on walk in the dark alley`s tonight. Thought of using this as my 365 pic but it`s something I`ve done to death, running hi ISO`s. so went with the built in flash. I`m impressed on the next shot, that it focused very well!

Not an impressive photo, I agree, however part of a 365 project is stepping out of your comfort zone.

  I struggled with using a better photo; that although was better (using the techniques I already have a handle on), I used features of the camera I don`t like much... flash. Not just flash, but in a place were I was still trying to control exposure and focus and I could not see what I`m doing.... was using a P&S !
