Water Fawl Shoot
Today I took. my Canon Rebel XTi attached the Canon 24-105mm L Lens and went to the lake to see what kind of shots I could pull off with that combo. This camera came out in 2006 with a whopping 10 megapixels. So what kind of results will I get out of this thing. I think you will be as amazed as I was by the results. So here is the photo dump from today.






Unforgettable Couples Retreat at Bolt Farm Treehouse

Domes
So, I had an opportunity to spend the night at the beautiful and breathtaking views couples getaway. They have private settings and beautifully decorated domes atop the mountains of a little East Tennessee town called Whitwell.


View of Whitwell
You can sit and enjoy the views just down from your chairs and sip an adult beverage. You also have a nice fire pit for those chilly nights and to make smores.


Views at Sunset
The next few pictures will be inside the dome itself. The decor is really classy and has it’s modern flare.

Harman Phoenix 200
So I finally got to shoot a roll of Phoenix 200 while in Chattanooga TN recently.

I was quite surprised by what I got. The color is very bright and very sharp. Can it be a little punchy, sure yes but it has a cool vibe to it I think.

Halation, yep it has it and it is proud of it. In fact they will tell you it is going to be there so that there is no surprise it is there.

My final take on this film is really cool vibe with punchy color and a very artistic vibe to it. I will be picking more of this up for future shooting and would recommend it for anyone.

Harman Phoenix 200 was shot on a Pentax P30 using a 28-70 zoom lens.

Upcoming Projects for MTO Pro

So the first camera we are going to look at is a Kodak Ektralite 10, yep I am stupid and going to shoot a 110 camera. With the film on the way from Lomography, we are going to tip-toe through this little beast of a camera. Oh did I say I have the box and book that came with the camera?

So the next beast of a camera we will showcase is the 2001 Canon Powershot S40 with 4MP, which uses a CF card and wait for it SHOOTS RAW!!! What the what.

Then we have a pair of Casio pocket digicams that are 3.2MP and 5MP and are small enough to fit in your wallet, well almost. Did I say it takes forever to charge the batteries for some dumb reason?
