I usually shoot in manual so forcing me to do tv tomorrow is great thanks for the ISO tip because I usually leave that in auto, see if we get some more snow in the am! What does Tv stand for?
Tv = shutter speed priority.

Good start, Jim. I'll have to do this on purpose and have fun with it. Good tip on setting the ISO off AUTO. I suspect that has been my downfall in the past since you mentioned it. Sometimes it worked (probably not on auto) and sometimes it didn't (probably on auto).

Did I miss something as far as a calender and subject change for tomarrow's challenge (10/23/2012) as the calender I have shows "Fill The Frame" and not Speed.

Page 2: No, photo guy, "Fill the frame" was later switched with "Flashlights".
Now that too seems to have been discarded by the powers that be, in favour of Tv (Ugh ! Canonspeak !)
:(
Catching us on the wrong foot again, aren't they !! LOL !!

Yes Annette is in the hospital and roadrunner was kind enough to cover the day but he chose his own subject - gonna let Annette use flashlights at another time since she is really the only one who knows what she really had in mind for a flashlight challenge and if you host, even in an emergency pinch hit situation you get to choose the subject

Walking home from the shopping center, I was transfixed by this priest setting up his little roadside shrine. For India's submerged and marginalised millions, this is the Ultimate Court of Appeal, for only God can help them...no security of life, liberty, employment or property. These are only words in the Constitution, and mean nothing in real life.
On a technical note, I used different zoom settings on the Sony P&S, for each picture. The shutter speeds varied from 1 second to 1/6th of a second. All shots handheld, ISO 100; center-weighted average metering. No flash.

75mm (Full frame terms used); 1/3 sec; f. 4.5
25mm; f. 3.5; 1/2 sec.
50mm; f. 4.5; 1 second
40mm; f. 4; 1/6th second

Sorry to hear that about Annette. I wouldn't mind hosting one day but I would have no idea what to pick for subject. I will have to think about that.

Thank You for the help. That makes it easier for me to understand and follow then. Hard to plan ahead that way though but oh well.

ROAD RUNNER...excellent start and thank you so much for taking on the day.
ANNETTE if you are reading along we all miss you and speaking for myself, Im sending power prayers your way.
My prayer for Annette
hurry up and break outta there
we are not done with you yet.
just two months left to go
and you must cross the finish line
with us, Ill have you know.
they said you couldnt walk
you proved them so wrong
now hurry up and get outta there
I cant wait to long.
HUGS HUGS HUGS
it was such a beautiful morning I got off my duff
and went out to capture it. I shoot in manual most of the time and can set the shutter speed or aperture opening at will and prefer it that way...as I think it gives me more control...but I recently learned that it helps to use a priority mode under some conditions. Ill show you what I mean.
but first the morning. I generally keep my ISO on 200 and only change it when I need more light inside...at which time I also adjust white balance.
at the museum they had this piece which was neon lights...I wanted to make some blur but my camera seemed to be overriding me and wouldnt let me doit until i put it in Shutter Priority

I am very concerned about Annette and hope she has someone with her 24 hours. It can be a real morale booster to have a loved one to share the trauma with. I am sure she will respond positively to the treatment, she has great guts. So many great qualities in her ...

just some random thoughts i thought i might share.
The calendar is mostly a guide for the hosts...we offer it to you as it was requested a long time ago so people could prepare ahead of time...which in many ways defeats the purpose of the CHALLENGE. THE original intent/PURPOSE of the challenge is to shoot daily, grow and improve skills, and share from our world. It is there for your convenience and pleasure. If a host decides to change it, consider it a SPECIAL CHALLENGE....and just go out and shoot something new.
PHOTOGUY...PM me if you are serious about hosting...there are some weekend days available and possibly other days as hosts might need subs...it would be good for you as you continue your recovery. Ill help you come up with your subject...I already have some in mind for you that I think you would like.
Oh and for all of you out there....if you dont want to or cant comment THAT IS FINE...YOU SHOULD NOT FEEL THAT IT IS EXPECTED and you should certainly feel NO PRESSURE to do so...it should only be done if it is your pleasure to do so.
the only time it is expected as far as I am concerned is from the host...otherwise go it as you wish....
some folks never or rarely comment and we still enjoy their posts...some of us do it alot and probably drive you all nuts with our blather....
Have a good day...enjoy the challenges in a way that works for you. But enjoy em now...cause you never know when or who will be here or not.

Double R: A secret ... I actually shot them with you in mind. I have noted, long ago, your interest in cross-cultural themes.
I thank you for acknowledging them. Now the circle is complete.

HE IS TALKING ABOUT using your priority modes either shutter (speed) or aperture (lens opening/fstop).
