305/366 - "Carving Delayed"

(F/4, 25mm, 1/40 sec, ISO 100, Canon 7D)

We were going to carve pumpkins on Monday or Tuesday night for tonights originally scheduled Halloween.  However, due to Hurricane Sandy just about every Trick-or-Treat in the area has been rescheduled for Saturday.  Therefore, we will be carving these babies on Friday night.

304/366 - "Snack Time"

(F/3.2, 100mm, 1/100 sec, ISO 100, Canon 5D Mk II)

Most of the schools in the area were closed today due to Hurricane Sandy, so Jonah stayed home with me.  At 3:00pm on the nose Jonah requested some Star Wars fruit snacks and I had some as well while I was working.

303/366 - "Pen and Paper"

(F/8, 100mm, 4.0 sec, ISO 100, Canon 5D Mk II)

With a rainy day today and forecasted for the next several days there may be several macro photos in the future.  Even with all the technology that I surround myself with on a daily basis I still love my Moleskine notebook and pen for note taking.

302/366 - "Sunday, Beer, and Football"

(F/2.2, 50mm, 1/25 sec, ISO 200, Canon 5D Mk II)

This rainy Sunday I did what many do.  Cracked open a beer and watched some football.  Not my best photo, and that is probably because I am so close to the end and getting tired.  Sometimes any photo is good enough. 

301/366 - "Owen"

(F/4, 105mm, 1/200 sec, ISO 400, Canon 5D Mk II)

This is Harper's friend Owen from her "old" school.  She misses him and we were able to meet up with Owen and his family at the annual Halloween Parade in Oakmont.  This was taken after the parade while all the kids were running around playing.  Owen was pointing out that there was a train across the river.

300/366 - "Camera Tossing"

(F/8, 5mm, 1.0 sec, ISO 100, Canon PowerShot SX200 IS)

So it is day 300, and I am still going somewhat strong.  I was surfing the interwebs the other day and stumbled upon a photographic technique called camera tossing.  Google it, there are some pretty amazing photos out there using this technique.  Anyway, I wanted to do something different to mark the occasion of day 300 and this is it.  I spent about 10 minutes tossing my camera in the air watching it spin out of control hoping to catch it before it crashed down on the floor.  This is actually quite addicting trying to get the timing right checking every photo to see what is captured.  I highly recommend this and I suggest a Point & Shoot camera that you are willing to break, because you will drop it at some point.

299/366 - "Double Yellow"

(F/8, 17mm, 0.3 sec, ISO 800, Canon 7D)

Like many of my photos lately, taken while sitting in traffic.
