A storm came through about 2 hours before game time. Cooled the air a bit which was a nice change from the 80s during the day. The game was fabulous! The Bulls hit 4 homeruns and won over the Mud Hens 9-3.
During the game, I played around with our new point & shoot camera. We replaced our 5 year old digital camera a couple of weeks ago so I'm still learning the settings on this one. One option is for panoramic photos. What better place to try that than at a stadium? I got a couple of neat shots. Here was my second attempt. You can click on it to see it larger. Do you notice anything unusual?
And I tried the fireworks setting during the post game show. While I had taken some pretty cool fireworks shots with the old camera, they don't compare to the detail I managed to capture with the new one:

ReplyDeleteTheresa, thanks! :) It's the Kodak M1033. This is my 3rd Kodak digital and I've been very pleased every time.
ReplyDeleteglad the weather worked out for you!
ReplyDeletegreat photos!
beautiful pictures!!
ReplyDeletelove the colors in the fireworks
The fireworks are great. Very hard to catch! I have a point and shoot and have had it for years and only recently started playing around w/the settings! I'll definately have to take a closer look at it.
ReplyDeleteBTW: I couldn't figure out what was "unusual" in the first photo?!!
To take the panoramic shot, the camera prompted me to take 3 shots. After the first & second, it showed a small strip of the previous so I could line them up. After all 3, the camera stitched them together. Of course the game didn't stop during this time so there are 2 shortstops in my photo. Shame on that guy for moving! LOL ;)
ReplyDeleteWow great shots with your new camera!
ReplyDeleteI was gonna ask what was unusual about the photo, but you mention it in your comments. I wouldn't even notice, simply because I don't know anything about sports! lol
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! Love the panorama pic!
