Shooting at Rainbows in Essex
Someone forgot to tell the weather man that it is still August and that the days should be nice and warm with lots of sunshine every day, warm evenings and only occassional rain at night. So far this August we have had strong to gale force winds, thunderstorms, lots of heavy cloud most days, rain and even rainbows.
Driving home in Essex we managed to capture this picture of a rainbow last night. The camera used was a Canon Powershot A560 with a 4x Optical zoom. Its a very easy to use point and shoot camera takes good, clear pictures even at speed in a moving car. Not one of the latest Canon point and shoot digital cameras, nevertheless the quality of the images is very good even in varying conditions.
Shooting at the Moon
Tonights Ycademy training call set exercise is to shoot at the moon. Hopefully here in Essex the clouds will part long enough to take a shot at the big sphere in the sky. If all goes well we will use the Canon Powershot A560, the Nikon Coolpix P90 and the old Fuji Finepix to compare images.
