Crop Circles

There are two new galleries available for viewing in the pictures section of Kevo.ca. The photos are taken from recent Ultimate tournaments on Toronto Island and Fergus. The weather for these tournaments was incredible and the memories, of course, needed to be captured in still photography. Enter the Kevo with digital camera at the ready.

I've read a few photography books and have learned a few tricks to make the photos look better. It really is quite amazing to see the effects of fill-in flash on a bright day or the use of a steady hand without flash in night photography. Looking back at the older galleries, I wonder what those pictures would look like if I had taken more care back then.

Part of the fun of putting these galleries up on the website is sharing the pictures with friends and family. But even more fun is the fact that I get to go back and enjoy the memories myself. Since I purchased my camera, I've taken more than 2000 shots with it. That's easily more pictures than I've taken in my entire lifetime up to this point. So it's safe to say that the digital camera fits right in with the way I do things. And for once in my life, the activities in my life are actually being documented.

As for digital photography, it's got me sold.
  • I don't miss the hassle of finishing a roll of film.
  • I never need to go to the photo shop to develop film.
  • I take as many pictures as I want.
  • I can share photos as quickly as I need.

Now, what about that digital SLR, tripod, and mega-zoom lens?
