Sorry about Thursday and Friday but it was the last couple of day of our son being home and I wanted to spend time with him rather than tapping keys on a keyboard blogging. So there!
Anyhow on with the show. A week ago Saturday we were up well before dawn in Chicago (actually it was 4:00 a.m.) to take an airplane down to West Palm Beach Florida. As we were ferrying the airplane (no pax), my first officer was flying from the left seat (don't freak out, we can do that under the rules we fly) and I took the opportunity to get a grab shot of the pre-dawn sun rise. Yes the image is slightly blurred and when you see the camera specs you will understand why. Canon G9 2 second exposure at f/5 and ISO of 100, and get this, hand held. Actually the hand holding was true but I was suspending my hand from the sun visor rail so the vibration from the aircraft would not shake the camera.
So you ask what I was doing shooting at ISO 100 in the light. Well the G9's noise level goes up exponentially when you get off the 100 setting. I was much more willing to have a little shake in this image rather than noise. So that is why.
Hey, I am in Louisville right now getting ready to do something for my day job so I am going to cut it loose right now.
Cya tomorrow... Doug
