I got here and totally got up on my first impression skills and now it seems like half the people I met are leaving. Its pretty interesting being at going away parties for people you just met - watching how friends act when it gets down to the wire with goodbyes and well wishes.
Also, at most of these things someone knows how to use my camera better than I do...Thats pretty much the only place I learn anything about it.
This was Nick's going away party - all of them are on super high ISO after I was specifically told not to put it on super high ISO...I'm still into it.
And this song all day...
Incredibly well shown Esther. The photos tell a story we've been party to over and time again. It's strange how, for some, the love they felt towards a person suddenly blasts out on that day - an acceptable platform for its expression. Whereas for others, the day of goodbyes is an oddity - a hindrance - to honest demonstrations of our affections for our friends who leave. I think your goodbye made me feel like it was true that you were leaving but that in many ways, you'd left with your decision to go. I still wish you were closer. I talked about you and how I love your dancing last night at Grippin Grain with a friend of Viz's. We poured a drink for you :) I'm excited for you to visit!

Some people have a fear of high ISO. I say if the shot calls for it (like a dank pool hall) use it.
ReplyDeletep.s. I love the three of the girl bringing a drink to the fella and then the hug. Sneeky candid. Oh and the dude with the helmut and no-pants, oh and are those stockings or leg tattoos? Cause if they're leg tattoos.... hoooowaaa.
I thought top-button done up with handle bars was your favourite?! It was my treat :) Um, Duncan totally knows - he knows - the sneaky sneaky is MY favourite set of shots too. I like the looks, the leans, the muscle flexes...
