Title: Re: A Report From Banding Day Post by: Donna on 11-Jun-10, 05:25:14 AM Great pics Jim, I tried to leave a comment on your site but it timed out when I went to preview. That never happened before. Was that Joyce in Mark's office window? And the "cookie" of the day was? I hope the TS building peeps had a good 1st banding show. :clap:

She said it was too close and the sky too gray for any good pictures. Like there are any bad pictures!! :laugh: Someone should have been shooting video from that window, holding the camera fixed and having the falcons fly through the frame like the "speed" shot used in auto racing where the camera looks down the wall at the cars zipping by.

Now, That would have been cool! Title: Re: A Report From Banding Day Post by: Joyce on 11-Jun-10, 02:05:00 PM And the "cookie" of the day was? I hope the TS building peeps had a good 1st banding show. :clap: Everyone knows I'm not a morning person...and would you believe I got up early and put 2 cookie trays in the oven. They were yummy chocolate chip cookies full with decadent dark chocolate mini squares. There were peeps all over: in the windows of the empty building across from TS, farther down in the old Aquaduct Bldg (now called Thompson-Reuters), South Avenue garage, the First Federal Bldg rooftop (old Changing Scenes), the Court bldg (Jim caught a photo of Carla P on the roof), and of course on the street looking up. A lot more than I expected to see for a weekday, including classes of children too. Someone should have been shooting video from that window, holding the camera fixed and having the falcons fly through the frame like the "speed" shot used in auto racing where the camera looks down the wall at the cars zipping by. Sorry Shaky. In hindsight, if I had known that was the situation, I could have handled both my camera & video. I didn't want to give up trying to take pictures when I didn't know anything about video. Space at the TS window was also very limiting too, especially when we joined by the Rochester Business Journal photographer. |
