Poof!

Poof!

That was what happened when I typed an hour’s worth of online discussion for one of my online units and clicked the “Post” button. How do you think I felt? =)

Today, I went to the church with my D60 and the SB-400 Speedlight where the wedding will be taking place in April. I was taking some test shots to record some settings for the best shot, but was unsuccessful due to a couple of reasons:

the lights were turned off right after mass
it was 10am after mass when the wedding will be held at 2.30pm
- these two reasons alone caused much distortion to the metering in the camera

and

the priest was more concerned about getting the other aspects of the wedding done first

I’ll have to try again next week or the week after.

If you have not read my previous entry, I was given a huge task come end of April to be the photographer for one of our family wedding. My brother had purchased one of the latest entry-level Nikon D60 dSLR for me, with Twin VR Lens (18-55mm & 55-200mm) and a Speedlight SB-400. It was my choice from the body kit to the lens to the flash. I reckon it is good enough for the wedding, with some practise and lots of getting used to.

Anyway, enough ramblings and here’s the Poof! picture I took in the church today.
