Full Title: Do You Know the Way to San Jose

Do you know the way to San Jose?
I've been away so long. I may go wrong and lose my way.
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose.

Just kinda has that fiesta-ish look to it I think.

Actually doing this for a project in class... stop motion using the Shutter Priority only. No manualling it this time around unfortunately, so I couldn't adjust aperture to get the whole depth of field so... more of it's blurred out a bit... but it's all good. I like it :D

. : Technical Info : .

Background is tissue paper from target reflecting on the water :D

Hi Tracy, this is an absolutely stunnig shot and the colour is just ...Wow!
Just wondering have you thought about a smaller aperture (higher F stop)? This was shot at F3.2 giving you a very shallow depth of field and the back of the splash is out of focus.
Of course, this is a wonderful shot as are all your water drops, and this might be the effect you were going for but I'd love to see this with a bit more of the drop in focus.
Just my 2 cents...

Mick

OH yeah, the reason I have to do it this way, is because my professor wants it strictly on shutter priority. Otherwise I would manual it and do it my way. But I wanted to see if it could be done :D Trust me, I normally manual it, but he wanted to see what I could do with shutter priority only :D

Try popping off 2 at a time. I figure my best tries are when I do them in succession real fast dropdrop. Try that and tell me if it works. Also, try not to think about it... get in a rhythm, into a zone, and remember to time your shot as you're dropping. It's not so much the dropping it's the trigger finger :(

Thank you! I'll find out tonight :D
