Camera Settings Challenge 6: WINNER!

June 18th, 2012
Thanks to everyone who voted, and especially to all those who entered!

Congratulations to Lesley @kiwichick - with this stunner of a photo! It utilises narrow aperture, long shutter speed and low ISO beautifully :)



Thanks again to everyone!

The time has come to choose a new challenge (and a new host)! I know Gary @gurry wanted to host the next CSC, or if there's anyone else who would like to, go ahead :)

@gurry Are you going to post a challenge?
June 19th, 2012
@myhrhelper I fell asleep instead. Remember: I live in India, which means that in most hours that you are awake, I am probably asleep.
June 19th, 2012
@gurry Oh, no problem. So happy you have agreed to host camera settings challenge 7!

June 19th, 2012
@gurry Are you going to do the next challenge?
June 19th, 2012
@myhrhelper Kathy, you pirhana, you. I was just getting ready to sit down and write it, but now you're only encouraging me to drink heavily.
June 19th, 2012
@myhrhelper we have given him so many suggestions that he just cannot narrow them down yet.
June 19th, 2012
@brumbe @myhrhelper Is Photoshop a camera setting?
June 19th, 2012
@gurry not really - this challenge is for people who want to learn how to use the various settings on their DSLR camera.
I started it since I went from a point n shoot to a DSLR

I thought you were ready to go yesterday.
Should we find someone else to start the camera settings challenge?
Not trying to rush you only know where we are in the process.
June 19th, 2012
@gurry for you it is, you have mad skillz at it.
June 19th, 2012
@orangecrush Originally Lesley was going to ask you but then Gurry agreed to do it and she thought that was fine. Do you want to give the next Camera Settings Challenge?

OR any of you?
@brumbe
@sdpace @djepie @cfitzgerald @38mm @agima @jsw0109 @sdpace @beetle365 @amyhughes

1st one to agree gets it!

ALSO - below are future challenges - could you pick one you would be willing to host?
You would need to watch for the results of the previous challenge.
The WINNER HAS 24 HOURS TO FIND A CHALLENGE HOST once they are declared the winner.

After that the person who agrees to host the challenge can automatically start the next challenge.

@myhrhelper @orangecrush You can do it instead. I just wrote up a really great challenge, and then my cat peed on my computer, and I lost it, so I don't think I'll get around to retyping it until tomorrow.
June 19th, 2012
@gurry if you have a good challenge you can go with it - I was confused if you had one.

Would you be able to start one tomorrow?
June 19th, 2012
@gurry
June 19th, 2012
@myhrhelper Kathy, I was torn between writing about the power button and the auto setting, but finally settled on solid writeup regarding how to take the lens cap off, and also how to put it back on.

Alas, the reek of cat urine has now destroyed my didactic discussion, and I will only be able to recreate the magic tomorrow once I shake off this hangover.
