One photo every day: A better skating photo. (228/365)

in onephotoeveryday •  7 years ago 


Some kind of game of catch they concocted.

Camera body: Canon EOS 550D
Lens: Sigma ART 50mm ƒ/1.4
Aperture: ƒ/2.0
Exposure: 1/200 s
ISO: Dual-ISO 800+1600

It's been pretty hard to set aside time for taking photos and editing them. I feel like all my time is spent on either moving the kids from place to place (school, hobbies), or doing groceries, or preparing food/smoothies. I also had to send my father some photos of my nephew Noa I took, but my laptop (where the photos were) ended up frying its graphics adapter while I was editing them.

This photo was taken after Leo's piano class. I took Miro skating while we were waiting Leo to finish his piano practice.

I wonder if, and hope that I can wake up tomorrow morning, as I have to take the car to the repairs again, as the steering wheel radio control buttons and the honker still don't work. It's 1:35 am now...

Anyway, I'll go to bed now. Good night!

@gamer00,
Ha ha they do it well! Pretty great photography! How did you make it? Are you get that photography while you are skating too?

Cheers~

Yes this is the life of a father (or uncle "father" XD)

but my laptop (where the photos were) ended up frying its graphics adapter while I was editing them

I hope it is repairable, here if it happens to me that I would still be crying
: P

as I have to take the car to the repairs again, as the steering wheel radio control buttons and the honker still do not work. It's 1:35 am now ...

I have seen that you have had a lot of problems with the car :(

btw, I can see that Miro was having a good time skating in the snow :)

You're pretty busy right now lol.
But soon your kids will grow up and will be moving you instead from place to place and do groceries :d

These photos look much better compared to the ones you took on your phone.

I hope that my first car which I will buy soon won't break down every other day. I would hate having an inncovenience such as that.

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

I got my car back, and guess what. The honker and the radio control buttons still don't work.

It appears that the part that was broken had caused a short circuit, breaking the whole steering wheel console with it.

Now I need to take the car next Friday in for repairs for the fourth time. This is just my luck.

Haha. You just have to love cars :D

You got double whammy to deal with on top of things! The car and laptop are both a must have..It's fun watching your children skate, isn't it? :-) Good luck with everything..

I feel like all my time is spent on either moving the kids from place to place (school, hobbies), or doing groceries, or preparing food/smoothies.

It should be best thing in the world :)

Great shot, you catch the moment well!

I took Miro skating while we were waiting

Miro was obviously enjoying it and having fun. I can feel it from the picture. Lol. I hope your car gets fixed soon enough.

Lol with busy schedule, I understand how can one reach to the end of the day in just a blink, haha.

But taking the small time to take this photo will make you able to go back and remember and relive those precious of the past, that's why photos are a wonderful thing : D

PD: Funny how there is a bank in the background when you are posting this on Steemit haha, and o hope your car gets fixed soon.

Thanks @gamer00 for sharing the post with all of us.

Seems like it was a fun moment Miro looks really happy while skating he seems to be a professional and you really captured the candid moment really well wonderful essence of happiness and joy can be found in one pic.

I feel like all my time is spent on either moving the kids from place to place (school, hobbies), or doing groceries, or preparing food/smoothies. 

I guess most of the people like me could relate to that but that's life when they will grow up you will definitely miss these moments for sure and cherish them later :) 

 Anyway, I'll go to bed now. Good night!

Good night or Good morning what ever is it now hahah 

Have a great day ahead.

Cheers.  

Seems like you have a busy life going on there.Honestly it's the same momentum for most of the people in this world.Were you not fulfilled when you saw the kids enjoying? You sure were = ) Also there is something wrong going on with laptops recently.. My laptop is going crazy as well and I hope it won't get destroyed :x

Thank you for contributing to the Steemit Community.Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to your next posts.

Is so great @gamer00 all the effort you take to continue with your projects, make quite interesting post for us and still fulfill all your responsibilities and obligations, I'm very happy that you can combine your personal life with your photos for steem. Best luck and take care and good night.

Miro sure is enjoying the time for sure ;)
Sorry to hear about your laptop buddy !

It's just the PCI-Express adapter, the internal graphics adapter seems to work somewhat better. I wonder if they still sell add-on graphics adapters that work on the Lenovo T500.

I do hope you find it buddy :)

He is like "try to catch me if you can woah" lol.
After skating for some time he looks quite confident.

A lot less blurry than the last one :).

You know, just to see the happiness of a child many problems that have solution is passed, the photo of your son, you see the happiness in his face of how well he was going. very good picture I hope to get to take pictures like that. Greetings and good evening. here are 7:50 pm

Miro was obviously enjoying his skating and Leo was enjoying the sight .

Cute Kids!!

This photo is very clear! The shutter must be very fast! I hope you could have deep sleep so that you could get up for your garage appointment!
The boy is quite fast on his skates! Very skillful.
Cheers.

Yea it's clear pic than previous pics .

odrg.png

you will see Lots of small points
if you know what i mean ^_^

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

I live in Finland.

Yes, digital photos are made of lots (and lots) of small points.

I mean you have problem in your camera , Small Points shouldn't appear ^^

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Ah, you mean the ISO noise. Yes, the photo was a bit under-exposed. The shutter speed could have been a bit slower, but kids sure move fast, 1/200 eliminates most movement blur if it's not an outright hockey match. Opening the aperture didn't help, because it was too dark to have a fast enough focus and the photos under F/2 would get blurry.

I don't generally use noise reduction as it also blurs photos.

Miro looking very cute and enjoy skating
Nice pic jaro

I like you Because you care about your children a lot, This is a wonderful thing all parents should do with their children
