So, this weekend I took some time to read up on aperture, ISO, shutter speed, etc. I know what all these things are, I used to sell cameras for the longest time. I had to explain these things to people. I've always been so against using high ISO, because I absolutely hate the noise it produces in pics. These "lessons" I've been reading are geared towards getting you to put the flash away. I'm a flash freak. My house has minimal decent lighting, so I almost always have the speedlite on, ready to help out with my crap lighting. Here are some examples of what I accomplished. I still have a long road ahead of me, and these are nowhere near perfect. They are also unedited, so please be kind ;) Editing will come later in my self-learning.
Body: Canon 40D
Lens: Canon 24-70mm 2.8L
Flash: none (yikes)
Filter: B&W UV Haze
24mm, ISO3200 [yikes], f/2.8, shutter 1/25.
40mm, ISO1600, f/5.6, shutter 1/80 (I also did this one in full manual, for the first time ever I felt comfortableish using manual instead of aperture priority)
