I didn't feel really driven to take many con photos this year, which is sort of becoming the norm. I know people love seeing their suits in photos, and I know I can take reasonably decent photos, but I just spent more time in my room and other people's rooms socializing. It was hard to tear myself away for the purpose of stalking through the hallways stealing souls, especially when I know there are other people out there taking more photos, so I don't feel any sort of obligation to deliver. :P I do wish that more of the people who took photos ACTUALLY PUBLISHED THEM SOMEWHERE DECENT.
Frolic was another matter. That's a limited area, with opportunities for a lot of weird lighting. I think my set's a little lacking, overall, since I was having issues dialing in the flash. I also need to lower my ISO; there's WAY too much noise in a lot of the shots. Also, I need to do exposure comparisons between computers. When I looked at the system on two machines, the photos looked fine, but the third they all looked blown out. And all three systems seemed at the same brightness. Also, after going through 233 photos, the world looked a little pale, due to the red cast over everything. I could have white balanced it, but then I lose the lighting of the moment. Meh!
Whatevs! Can tune for color, but not brightness! Such is life.

I didn't go to Frolic myself - probably should have as it was kind of dead at the con that night. Everyone I knew was more than likely over at Frolic! Heh... oh well.
