New Kid on The Block

It has been a week since my last post but it is one that has not been without serious busyness in my life. Last week I was at work hurried in a project until I headed home on Wednesday. Got home around 9:00pm and in bed by 12:15 am. So why is that remotely important to this post? I was up three hours later getting ready to catch a flight out to Maryland on Thursday. The 7th being our grandsons birthday and Friday was my daughter was going to deliver her second child which by the way came off without a hitch.




Raegan Michelle was born at 12:05 on April 8th. One of the images was on of my daughter the morning of the delivery to which I added a few touches in Photoshop but she liked the picture treatment.








Yes I did take a number of images in the hospital room with the 5D Mk II and an EF 50 f/1.4 prime to get as much light as possible. Of course most every image looks good on the back of the camera, when you get them in Lightroom things change just a bit. Here is what I think is the best to pics from the opportunity I had. I definitely made the right decision to bring the 5D Mk II rather than the 40D as I was running at ISO 3200 most of the time.

Well, it's home tomorrow and back to some form of normalcy.

Take care... Doug
