August 14, 2011 :: Homemade! Lorraine bought an ice cream maker a few weeks ago. This is the strawberry frozen yogurt that she made yesterday. We had a thunderstorm yesterday during the afternoon and I tried to get a picture or 2 of the lighting. It was only lightly raining by us so I could have the camera right outside under an overhang. I put an ND filter on so I could leave the shutter open for 3 seconds to improve my luck. As you can tell by the picture above it didn't help. I didn't get any lighting shots. I missed one because I started talking about something and didn't hit the button, and I missed a second one because it happened in the 2 seconds the timer was counting down. I guess I should get a cable release if I want to try it again. 176 pictures of the same thing! Oh well, the frozen yogurt was good.
