December 2020

I got a Canon 5d mkiv, a professional paparazzi camera.  I'd wanted one for the past ten years.  With the addition of Scott's drone to our video-making armamentarium, it was time to start making vids with the 5d.  But it also takes real nice stills.  The image sensor is full-frame and is at least twice the pixels of my previous camera.  The iphone is great and all, it's super convenient and the low-light photography is good, but the 5d is better.  

So here are some of my recent shots.

Scott flying his drone at Valley Verde elementary


Kira at Valle Verde with a nice fall background.


Our Walnut Creek home with the Christmas lights on a timer.  You can't tell, but IS300 is in the front on the jack.


Hanna being cute

Tyler playing Minecraft on his Macbook


Paisley and Roman joined us for din din 


Suzie lounging on Heidi's puzzle.  Heidi has really enjoyed her puzzles this winter.  


Parker has been way into the cats.  They are patient with him but eventually scratch him until he lets go.  


Christmas at Heather and Jason's

Matchy matchy cousins


Fun candid of Kira playing with Hanna's makeup.

Trying the low-light features of the 5d.  This was 1/40, f4, at ISO 12500.  

Heidi got a new coat for Christmas

The edited shot of our kids.  I should have had Parker on the other side of Kira, but whatevs.  


Parker's wall headshot

Heidi doesn't like this much because it looks like I'm slouching.  Really I was just seated further back in the couch and it was depressed more.


Scott is real proud of his hair.  I think he should get a haircut but long hair seems to be en vogue now.
