Red Ball, Red Background


I also do now enjoy to take photos of objects. I took a photo of the red ball that we use to play with Billy, the dog of my mother.

I was attracted by the red colour when I saw the red ball on the red bench. Continue reading Red Ball, Red Background

I know, the D7100 can also be used if it is darker, but without tripod this is probably very difficult, and apart from that I have not the experience yet to do these shots. But I was very curios and excited in the evening, … Continue reading After 900 Shots I Can Say This Camera Is Impressive
