Saturday snapshot – April 21st. 2012 | UTSIKT FRÅ LIA ~ VIEW FROM THE HILLSIDE

Three pictures this week

Solan did some posing for me again. The light was fairly low, but I didn’t want to use flash, so I ended up with a fairly high ISO and some grain in the photo. Still, I’m very pleased with the result. 1/200s, f/2.2, 60mm, ISO-5000.

The next one is of my new shoes. It’s all a bit of a lovestory really.
This was taken in bright sunlight and I wanted a little more depht, so naturally some of the settings are different. 1/1000s, f/2.8, 60mm, ISO-100

The last one is taken with my phone and has been played around with in a couple of different android photo apps, so no info on settings.

To participate in the Saturday Snapshot meme you must post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken and then leave a direct link to your post in the Mister Linky at that Saturdays Snapshot post at At Home With Books. Photos can be old or new, and can be of any subject as long as they are clean and appropriate for all eyes to see. How much detail you give in the caption is entirely up to you. All Alyce asks is that you don’t post random photos that you find online.

Awesome photos. Is your cat a ragdoll? I love the red shoes as well – very sharp and they look comfy as well.

  I always liked taking photos, but it is so much more fun after I started taking classes.

Very cute cat…and shoes! I also enjoy seeing different photo effects in photos.

What a wide variety of photos. The cat’s pupils look huge!! Lovely shoes. Are they comfortable? I need some new ones and I think I’ll avoid plain black. Here’s Mine

  Yes, his pupils were huge, there wasn’t that much light
  The shoes are really comfortable, and I’ve been looking for something like them for a long time.

LOOOOVE those shoes!

Solan is just so stately, so gorgeous. My own ragdoll Jack even had to admit — yep, Solan’s got the goods!

  Solan says thank you (by licking himself in a very undignified spot)

Great shoes! Red is my favorite color for shoes, I think.

That last one looks like a painting.

What a cute cat!! I’ve never been a woman who loves shoes(gasp!)unless you can count walking shoes which I have about 6 pairs of, but those are neat! Love the colored swirls!

A cat Mona Lisa.
Thank you for the good advice for taking photos.
I love the red shoes.

Leslie on April 22, 2012 at 19:43 said:

For an ISO of 5000, Solan doesn’t look grainy at all. Now that I know a little bit about how the settings work taking pictures is much more fun.

  I agree, it’s so much more fun now that I’m starting to know what I’m doing
