F8 and Be There

Before digital cameras came along, you had to set your "F stop" to the proper setting to have the right exposure for your photos. There was a saying among photojournalists: "F8 and be there."--set your camera to F8, and get to the scene ready to go. Not that much has changed, really.

Welcome to the Observer's Photo Blog

Truth be told, I wanted to be a photojournalist when I grew up.

Quotes

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you aren't close enough."

"The pictures are there, and you just take them."

Candlelight Service

The 11 p.m. service, from the choir loft.

This photo and the one below from the 9 p.m. service, from the back.


Two views of the climax of the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection's Christmas eve services--the 9 pm and the 11 pm. No sled dogs required this year, and attendance reflected that fact!

Cell phone photos.

How much to reveal? There are some nutty people out there! Leave it to say right now that I am well educated, a person of the Christian faith, and never without an opinion.
