241/365 - Jim - Wheel

( f/5 10.5mm 1/60 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )

I got home pretty late today, so I went out and took a photo of the wheel of my car. It was really dark, so I used the SB-800 flash remotely. Then using Lightroom I applied a preset to give it the blue tint. This is what happens when I have little time before midnight to take my photo of the day...

180/365 - Jim - Oil Change

( f/13 10.5mm 2 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )

I only took 3 photos today. This one was done quickly while I did an oil change on my Honda Accord which has over 100,000 miles on it. It was really dark, so I decided to HDR it to bring out the details. You can even see the oil draining.
