Renaissance Festival Photos Galore
October 5th, 2009
Good-looking Renaissance family, originally uploaded by Yenra.
I took over three thousand photos at the Maryland Renaissance Festival on the first Sunday in October, a record for me. I’m learning my camera (a Nikon D300) better each time I go out on a shoot. This time I learned better how to keep focus with moving subjects; how to reestablish focus when shooting many photos in quick succession, how to rapidly spot meter, where best to stand when taking long shots, and how to keep myself fed and hydrated during a long shoot. Perfect weather, cool and sunny. It will take months to process the pictures the way they deserve.
