Have Tripod will Travel
Hi from my hotel room. I have this new little tripod.. one of those Gorilla pods- I bought it while traveling in China for like $3.00 (sooo cheap). AND I'm not yet convinced its that great for my outfit photos... First, it is JUST barely strong enough to hold my camera and lens, and then, I find it difficult to set it up portrait style so my camera is sideways for full length shots. Any suggestions? I have tried hanging from something, or attaching it to ie. lamp post but haven't had alot of luck! I noticed it also depends on the lens I am using too (the fixed lens doesnt work as well- too close). (yes and some blurred photos.. urgh!)
As for the outfit --I had a presentation to deliver so wanted to look alittle 'business-like". Yes and a bun like Little House on the Prairies :)
Am off to explore more Winterlude here in Ottawa- there are some amazing ice sculptures all around the city. Here's a few examples (I took these last night.. so impressive!!) Happy Tuesday xoxo J

Love the grey boots: very sassy. And the green skirt is stylish.
ReplyDeleteUsing a camera without a tripod is very hard; sounds like your little tripod is barely adequate. I'd invest in a better tripod: they have them in all sizes (including small). Cheap is rarely satisfactory.
Glad to see you blogging again!
Beautiful sculptures. I have one of those mini-pods too, but I haven't actually used it very much or when i did, I always had to square up the photos.
