I spent most of my time with my girlfriend so I didn't take out my camera until I was alone. She ran a marathon on Sunday and thats when I snapped these 2 pictures. The rest of the time I spent tracking her down and taking pictures of her running. my favorite is the one of the runners and building because it was my first time using a wide lens for street photography and I personally liked my composition here a lot with the leading lines. These pictures were taken on my 16-30mm f2.8 Tamron.

I just stumbled into this mini shoot of a 2018 Chevy Colorado that happened back in June of this year. I don't normally do automotive, so this was a little different than how I had done things to this point, because I only ever use the phone as a "snapshot" camera. So here's the reminder in the story; I chose to ingest these photos via bluetooth (first time doing this), and during the process the phone arbitrarily decided to force an update/restart in the middle of the ingest. Now, I don't know what was changed, but what I do know is that when I finally got the images ingested into the laptop, all but two were "garbled" and when I viewed the images on the phone, they too were garbled. So now, I only have 2 out of about 9 or 10 images that were taken of the vehicle. This is also the reason I shoot dual card with the 2nd card being a duplicate in my Nikons - I always have 2 copies of every capture or frame right from the very beginning. I'd be happy with the two photos I did manage to get and save, if it weren't for the cutoff tailgate on the 2nd image, which I think was 5 in the series. I did have a full tailgate shot in the original captures, but it was one of the garbled images that could not be recovered. Fortunately, this was not something that was a paid gig. Moral of the story: If you shoot professionally, ALWAYS shoot professionally, like every capture is a paid session, and USE your regular workflow ALWAYS. Your brain will develop "muscle memory" (as athletes would say) so the more you do, the less likely mistakes or disasters will set you back because your workflow should take these things into consideration. Just my .02 worth. Yeah, I'm tossing in that cutoff tailgate, just as a reminder when I see this post that using my normal workflow could have prevented this.

Hey guys so I want to make some videos about taking pictures on a camera and cell phone. Which one do you want to see first? Are you guys using a cellphone or camera when you go see cars?

Here are the settings I used to bring this car to life! How did I get this car?? I sent DMs to 10 people and out of the 10 I got 2 and of the 2 I shot with 1. Its a numbers game for everything in life!

Very excited to say I will be visiting Canada for a few days and will share some of my work that I get to capture over there!
