This past Saturday I went to the Volume of our Voices presentation at my grad school: SIT Graduate Institute. The Rutland Herald actually did an article about it that is a very good summary and insight into the actual presentation. I was "photographer" as always, not official, but there. I didn't get to try out my new 50mm Nikkor 1.8/f lens as I had hoped, since there was no good angle for such a short lens, but I did use my 90mm 2.8/f Tamron instead, and got a very good angle from the balcony. This was the first time I shot only in RAW, which was a completely new experience--especially the processing of the images. I bought the new Sandisk SD card for my camera, and IT IS FAST! It has no problem clearing the buffer, even when shooting RAW. Anyway, I have 60 pictures (200 make the cut, 60 of the best are in the album) in Volume of our Voices Highlights. They're worth checking out, as is the article in the Rutland Herald.
As I said in my last post, I updated the whole web album system, while the old address still work, I've made it much faster to load, and so it takes less resources both on my server and the local computer.
I loved the show, it was very touching and powerful. The photos I took are a very good representation of the actual show, but perhaps fail to convey the power of the presentations. This one in particular only hints at the strength and passion of the two performers who put on an excellent production. It was a great show. Like I said, shot with my Tamron 90mm on my Nikon D50. Capture One 4 is a great program for processing RAW by the by--it deals with noise well, and is pretty intuitive.
