Summer Time!
By Chris | July 22, 2008
I recently made a few purchases to add to my camera gear. Firstly, I got a SB-800 Flash. It’s an amazing piece of equipment. I love the wireless feature. I can use it as an off camera light source and fire it wirelessly from the camera. You can use it as a studio flash or on camera.
Also, I got a Circular Polarizer Filter. It cuts down on glare in water and pulls out more blues in the sky. I have a sample shot of a creek at Bear Creek Park to demonstrate the abilities of the filter. The sky was bright but over cast. Therefore, I did not attempt any sky shots. Notice how clear the water is WITH the filter compared to a bare lense. It’s a good investment for $65.
In other news, my wife and I are going to “cycle tour” Vancouver Islands and a few others including Cortez, Denman, Hornby, and Savary. We will work our way up to North Island from Naniamo and be island hoping along the way. We will return via the Sunshine Coast. I should be able to find many photographic opportunities during this two week journey. I will have many shots to share when we get back plus maybe lose a few pounds 
Also, I have moved this site to “plantephotography.com”. Currently, deltaboy.com is still up but it will forward to plantephotography.com soon.
