Music Party

First low-light event for the D700, so no flash at all, and I let the ISO go all the way to “H.02” (I believe that’s Nikonese for “Oh shit! Two stops underexposed!). Interestingly, I found that, though some of these are fairly noise (especially where the ISO is in 5 figures), they look a lot worse if I run Noise Ninja on them. I need to experiment more with that, maybe find better settings or something.

Photosynth of Minnehaha Falls

My first try at shooting specifically for photosynth is not a total failure; parts of the main falls bowl, in particular, seem to have come out fairly well.

Looks like it has mis-identified some matches, and I’ve probably tried to cover too big an area.  I shot some more down at Carleton later today, will be interested to see how those come out.

Fascinating toy!

Edited to add: But, of course, since it’s cool, Photosynth isn’t around any more. There’s an article on that.
