Thanks for a completely new photographic experience! These pics are: 1) unedited jpg’s 2) aren’t sufficiently bright for what we were trying to accomplish, but 3) do seem to say “Jack-o-Lantern” to me. Hey, it’s *almost*October :).

I’ve been using Apple’s Aperture software for more control over exposure after the fact. Many of you may have been wondering about shooting RAW. These are larger files than the basic JPEGs we started shooting, but the nice thing is you have much more control over brightening or darkening exposure in each photo. The nice thing that Aperture brings to the table is the ability to use “brushes” to selectively apply changes to only certain parts of the image without having to pull the image into something like Photoshop.

Feel free to ask if you’re interested in help from Learning Studio staff in improving your photos once you bring them back to your computer.

Here are a couple from the scouting trip with Nil and Donald in June. You can see what a big difference it makes shooting the same locations with the moon in play. Of course, it also made it significantly easier doing basic things like focusing and changing settings on the camera.
