Larger sketchbook pics for previous post, walk 2/06/16

These pics were missing from my previous post. Somehow I sent up photos of another day! They should post here in their largest size. I could save as a draft, but will leave them because they should be showing in their large size... I have yet to figure out how to access large size images from the blogposts when I am not signed in to edit.

Photo/Camera/Tech Notes: This time I reset the white balance in the camera for the journal notes n sketches. Instead of 'auto', I used 'incandescent' setting though this is a twisty bulb lamp, (whatever they are called, fluoro-carbon?), as the overhead lighting for taking photos of the sketchbook. A solution that keeps the yellow right out of the pic at last. They did still need the auto brightening adjustment after that.
Testing also to see if multi photo upload results in posting the same order or alters the posting order. I have been uploading to online email client one at a time' That has been resulting in posting just as they were uploaded and not by their file name order.

End of January walk around the half block,, memory notes and sketches, photos, 1/31/16

 

End of January walk around the half block,, memory notes and sketches, photos, Sunday, 1/31/16.

Set the camera to its dusk/dawn setting. The pics turn out very blue. The pics take longer to take and therefore do not focus as well. Most of the cat pics were too blurry.

And after writing my notes, I look up to see the last colors of the day.
