Probably one of my favourite shots from the foray to Nunney. Again the N-grads came into play. Best NOT viewed large. The distortion caused buy the 10-20mm lens spoiled the foreground a little with soft focus, but the overall composition and colour combine in a shot that I have been longing to take for a long while. Without the wide angle lens this one would be almost impossible as the castle is tightly contained and the unexpected but glorious sunshine was really well timed.
An excellent property just ripe for conversion into a fancy modern home one feels – if it weren’t for the whacking great Cromwellian cavity in the other side of the building!

I currently use the following digital compact cameras:
Olympus E-p1 (front left)
Olympus E-p3 (front right)
Canon G11 (back left)
Canon G15 (back right)
These four compacts have many of the features I desire. However, some have only some of the features; none have all of the features; and some features are completely missing from all four.
My ideal compact digital camera would meet the following specifications:
1.Built to withstand daily usage.
2.Manufacturing quality of the Leica MP or M6 film camera
3.Body and controls are ergonomically designed.
4.Has a simple user interface like the Nikon SP, Leica MP, or Leica M6 film cameras rather than relying on menus, toggle switches, and fly-wheels
5.About the size, weight, and style as the Leica MP or M6 film cameras
6.High quality, fast, interchangeable lenses
7.Live-view LCD screen
8.Ability to hide the LCD screen so that it is not visible.
9.LCD screen swings and rotates
10.Fast and accurate auto focus control
11.Fast and accurate manual focus control
12.Manual and auto exposure control
13.Choice of built-in spot, zone, and center-weighted light metering patterns
14.Offers shutter priority, aperture priority, manual, and program exposure modes but no scenic modes like portrait, landscape, children, sunsets, etc.
15.Provides “B” (bulb) and “T” (timed) exposure options
16.Resolution equal to or greater than 35mm film
17.Minimum of 12 megapixel resolution
18.Creates RAW and standard jpeg image files
19.Dynamic range similar to the Fuji S5 dSLR
20.Uses CompactFlash and/or SD memory cards
21.Uses standard-sized generic batteries rather than proprietary batteries
22.Uses rechargeable batteries that can be recharged outside of camera body
23.No built-in flash
24.Has both hot shoe and PC flash connections for external flash units.
25.Uses a digital sensor that allows the user to select a horizontal rectangular format, a vertical rectangular format, or a square format.
26.Digital sensor is user upgradeable.
27.Camera software is user upgradeable.
28.Body cost $600 or less
29.Digital sensor is protected from dust and/or is self-cleaning.
30.Provides custom color, contrast, saturation, dynamic range, white balance, and noise reduction controls.
31.Has totally silent mode (no clicking, beeping, or whirling sounds during picture taking).
32.Minimal warm-up time when unit is turned on.
33.Minimal delay when shutter is pressed
34.Ability to shoot at least 2.5 images per second
35.Ability to shoot at least 24 consecutive images
36.ISO light meter range from 50 to 3200 or greater.
37.Produces high quality video images
38.Has microphone jack
39.Camera does not have stupid sounding name like “CoolPix” or "FinePix.”
Until my perfect digital compact comes around, I will continue to use the four digital compacts I have.
Thus far, I have been very pleased using the Canon G15 compact and the Olympus micro 4/3 as monochrome cameras.
I use the G15 as a black & white test camera when shooting with a 4x5 view camera because the G15 can give me a 4x5 aspect ratio for composition.
The Olympus micro 4/3 camera with Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 normal lens, Olympus 45mm f/1.8 telephoto lens, and Panasonic 14mm f/2.5 wide-angle lens produces excellent monochrome images.
Bag of trash before going down the chute! I collect trash for a living and on the side clean apartments usually for move out— so much do a PhD in sociology. The irony. Anyway I was doing a clean-up for an apartment of girls. They were around so I could really take the Cosmo. Plus it was smushed into a pile of tampons and kitchen trash. I figured I would snap a pick before throwing down the chute and that would be that. The trash here goes down a chute and is collected a day later and taken to the incinerator. In this bag were a bunch of magazines, kitchen trash and other gross stuff. In a separate bag was the Taylor swift vogue from September (becomes important). I took this bag out and dropped it down the chute and actually, with force threw out the bag with the t Swift vogue. Unfortunately I soon found out that I tossed out something that was important and also... threw out the vogue. I needed both back. I went down to find the dumpster.

Special THANKS to Trash Taxi for allowing me into the yard to take these pictures!
I currently own and use the following digital compact mirrorless cameras:
The Canon G5 (back left) is the oldest digital camera that I still use. I would like to retire it but it has one useful feature that none of my other camera have -- a built-in intervalometer.
The Canon G11 (back center) has a reticulated LCD screen that I find useful when I am shooting still life or close-up subjects with the camera mounted on a tripod or a copy stand.
The Canon G15 (back right) is the one I take when I need to travel with a light photographic load. The f/1.8 to 2.8 28mm to 140mm fixed zoom lens covers 80% of the subjects I need to shoot. If it had a reticulated LCD, it would be close to perfect for me.
The Olympus E-p3 (middle left) and the Olympus E-p1 (middle right) were my handheld available light cameras until I replaced them with the X-Pro1. I am now using them as dedicated black & white cameras.
The Fuji X-Pro1 (foreground) is my current handheld available light camera.
All six cameras have the following important features that I need:
1. Quiet operation -- especially when shooting theater or in audio recording studios
2. Excellent image quality (jpeg and RAW)
3. Size, weight, and style of a Leica rangefinder
4. A simple user interface that relies more on dials rather than menus
5. Video
Some of the important features that I need but none of the six cameras have are:
1. Fast and accurate manual focus control
2. Input jack that accepts a microphone for video audio track
3. Accessory battery pack for extended shooting sessions
Some of the important features that I need that some have and some do not include:
1. Built to withstand daily usage -- my G5, E-p1, and E-p3 break too often and too easily
2. High quality, fast, interchangeable lenses -- the Canon lenses are not interchangeable
3. LCD screen that swings, tilts, and rotates -- only on the Canon G5 and G11
4. Hot shoe and PC flash connections for external flash units -- all have hot shoes but only the X-Pro1 has both

Any hallway in a train is usually quite narrow and small to begin with, but the corridor in Moonlight Dome added the height constraints imposed by the dome above, resulting in quite a tight space.
Compacted trash. Here is the problem. I thought that bag was the bag I needed. It was NOT. This was from earlier. The trash gets pushed I of the dumpster and the. Shoved as hard as possible. Older trash is not as destroyed as it’s moved up and falls over. The bag I am looking for is completely smushed and buried in trash. But I had to find it.
