Weekly Photo 15 & 16 / 52 for 2013: Fish & Cosplay

Weekly Photo 15/52 for 2013: Panda Cory by Kristen Koster on FlickrI didn’t have a chance to post a weekly photo last Sunday and by the time Monday rolled around, I didn’t feel much like sharing a cute little cat fish with the world. Life goes on with sweet, cute and innocent right beside the horrible, shocking and evil.

I need to remember to use my tripod for these aquarium shots. Using just the tank light, really slows the shutter speed down if I take it off auto. If I leave it on then I have to fight the flash and worry about the fish darting. I should look into the hand-held dusk dusk option as well. I definitely have to play with this more as the tank is looking quite nice, but I can’t do it justice.

Weekly Photo 16/52 for 2013: Humanized GladOS from Portal by Kristen Koster on FlickrThis second photo is from this past week when my daughter decided she wanted to get some pictures of her humanized GladOS cosplay since she has a portal gun now. Yeah, I liked how this one with the companion cube came out better. There’s lots of post-processing on it, but only things you can do in iPhoto. I’d be really scary with a copy of Photoshop! Anyway, she gave me permission to share this one with everyone. And yes, our son does exist, but the birthday boy escaped the camera once again.
