Know what movie they were shooting?

I captured this of my cat this afternoon. It's the widest shot I've gotten with my 50mm. I actually backed all the way into my closet to capture it!

Is that like some association where neighbours pay a fee to be part of and then they vote for different rules/houseowner "laws"?
Sorry.. live in Sweden, we don't have that.

Yes, that is exactly what it is. In my area (Maryland, USA) almost every housing development has a Homeowners Assoc. that you must join if you buy a house. My monthly dues (condo) are $200 which is pretty cheap. For this, I get all outside maintenance (lawns, snow removal, upkeep on exterior of the buildings, etc.)

Nope. It actually is pretty rare to see a movie shoot in Hollywood. I got lucky on that.

^^ Nice shot!

Got my Pt-0465 Flash Triggers yesterday and tried them out for the first time this morning. Seem ok. At least for $20 with shipping.

Here's the first test using a 540EZ and 550EX.

Normally I would have had the main up a bit higher but needed to get under the hat.

Nice!! If you don't mind me asking, how long was your exposure and how did you choose it?

Thank you Hinson!

Thanks!

It was a 30 second exposure. I chose the longest possible while getting an exposure I liked because I like the look of water during long exposures (almost glass like).

First try on fireworks. Happy New Year from Philadelphia!

Well, they sure look good to me... my first try for fireworks was on film, and that didn't turn out nearly this well...

I'll be packing my 60D up in the morning and sending it off to a new owner to enjoy. It has been a great camera and I'll miss it

I will really miss seeing your work, I would've commented on your shots but I'm a new 60D owner and I'm way, way behind in reading this thread.
