Different shot that yesterday. Once I posted the other one I realized I wasn't ready to get back to the school work at hand, so I opened another one and played around. Eventually I scapped what I had, played Diyosa's action... and wa-la!
some of my favorite memories involve taking photographs of and with this little guy - my nephew, leo. #tbt to one of those great days on the beach a few summers ago #lenscap #film #bigboyleo

you know how there are some things that make you so happy you don't really know what to do with yourself? like, you feel like crying you're so happy, but that just doesn't make any sense? even if NONE of you have a clue what i'm talking about, it's a real thing, at least for me.
that's where this picture comes in.
i, for one, never appreciate summer for what it is when it's happening. this year i think i did a little more than usual, because i got all thoughtful and crap (i talked about it here) but still i don't think summer got all the love from me that it deserved. really, when i look at this photo, all i can feel is sun in my eyes and grass scratching my skin and and hopefully a little of that sweet summer breeze. this is the view laying in a part of my yard, looking up. it's delightful.
i haven't uploaded all the film shots i've got on my computer simply because i feel that they get redundant after a while. i may upload more soon since it's been so long since i posted film.
SPEAKING of film (you're loving this long description, aren't you), i haven't even touched my film cameras in way too long. i think the last time was when i went to the cascades and realized that i had left the power ON on the konica and consequently shot about half a roll of the back of the lenscap, presumably when my camera was bouncing around in a backpack of sorts. i think that sort of discouraged me from shooting more (or developing the ~3 rolls of exposed film i've got lying around). i should really get back on that. autumn's digression into winter is not bringing much inspiration. sigh my life.
HELLO FRIEND FOR FINISHING READING THAT. you're great.
This year was monumental for Olympus. We launched our first Micro Four Thirds camera -- the Olympus PEN E-P1, and marked the company’s 90th anniversary.
To celebrate this anniversary, our flagship camera, the rugged Olympus E-3, traveled with astronaut Dr. Koichi Wakata on the Space Shuttle Discovery for a four-month mission on the International Space Station (ISS). While in space, Dr. Wakata captured many amazing images with the E-3, documented the Earth’s appearance today, enabled scientists to analyze them, and ultimately promoted the environment’s delicate balance and the need to protect it for future generations. Dr. Wakata’s images and more information about the 90th Anniversary Olympus Space Project are available at olympus-space-project.com.
Unique, clear Olympus lens caps were designed to enable the astronauts to view the lenses before removing the caps, making certain that the lenses did not break during take-off, and ensuring their safety in the weightless environment of space.
To commemorate this anniversary, we are giving away to one of our lucky fans a 90th Anniversary Olympus Space Project kit that includes a commemorative camera strap and clear lens cap replicas (sorry, camera not included). The two lens caps fit four ZUIKO Digital lenses: 50-200mm f2.8-3.5 SWD, 14-54mm f2.8-3.5 II, 12-60mm f2.8-4.0 SWD and 9-18mm f4.0-5.6.
Comment below and be entered to win this special kit. We'll choose one of you from the best comments telling us why you want it. Thanks!

fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arno_(chanteur)
Arno, de son vrai nom Arnold Charles Ernest Hintjens, est un chanteur et acteur belge, né le 21 mai 1949 à Ostende. Parfait trilingue, il a d'abord surtout chanté en anglais avant de privilégier le français avec aussi quelques chansons en néerlandais.
En 1970 il forme son premier groupe « Tjens Couter ». Il est à l'origine du groupe TC Matic (d'abord appelé TC Band de 1977 à 1980). Le groupe se sépare en 1986 et Arno se lance dans une carrière solo. D'abord sur Virgin, il signe ensuite sur Delabel. En 1991 il forme le groupe Charles et les Lulus (Charles est son 2ème prénom, Lulu est une référence à sa mère, dont c'était le surnom) qui ne durera pas longtemps. Dans ce groupe, on peut retrouver le bluesman belge Roland. L'unique album de ce projet sera enregistré en une semaine, tout en prise directe. C'est un disque de blues, sur lequel on retrouvera quelques reprises. Il a également été acteur en 1996 dans Camping Cosmos de Jan Bucquoy, en 1997 dans Alors, voilà de Michel Piccoli et en 2008 dans J'ai toujours rêvé d'être un gangster de Samuel Benchetrit. Pour la petite histoire, il fut le cuisinier de Marvin Gaye lorsque celui-ci résida à Ostende (à partir de 1981). Il a reçu 5 fois l'Humo's Pop Poll Award du meilleur chanteur belge.
Il se fait connaître en France du grand public suite à sa participation à la bande originale du film Merci la vie (1990) de Bertrand Blier.
Belge, il est connu pour sa voix brisée à la Tom Waits et ses textes touchants, parfois empreints de naïveté. Chantant en anglais, en néerlandais et en français, il a fait de nombreux tubes (Putain, Putain, Bathroom Singer, Elle adore le Noir, Les Yeux de ma mère, Je veux nager, Chic et pas Cher). Il s'est fait une spécialité de reprises très originales de standards francophones (Les Filles du bord de mer d'Adamo, Le Bon Dieu de Jacques Brel, Comme à Ostende de Jean-Roger Caussimon et Léo Ferré, Elisa de Serge Gainsbourg, Sarah de Georges Moustaki), ou anglophones (Mother's Little Helper des Rolling Stones, Knowing me, knowing you de ABBA, Get up, stand up de Bob Marley et Peter Tosh) toutes les trois jouées de façon beaucoup plus lente, Roadhouse Blues de The Doors en concert), voire les deux (le medley Jean Baltazaarr, La fille du Père Noël/Jean Genie de Jacques Dutronc/David Bowie, avec Beverly Jo Scott). Abandonnant un peu l'anglais au cours du temps, sa musique reste un vaste mélange, l'accordéon y côtoyant la guitare électrique. C'est sur scène qu'il prend sa vraie mesure comme en témoignent ses deux lives En Concert (à la française) (qui contient des lives de Les Yeux de ma mère et Je ne veux pas être grand) et Live in Brussels sorti en 2005.
En 2006, il a tenu le rôle principal de Komma, un film de Martine Doyen, et a enregistré un nouvel album, Jus de Box, qui est sorti en janvier 2007. En 2008, il est à l'affiche dans le film J'ai toujours rêvé d'être un gangster de Samuel Benchetrit où il joue une scène mémorable (et sans avoir appris le moindre texte) avec Alain Bashung. Il sort également Covers cocktail, une compilation de ses reprises, plus un inédit, I Want to Break Free de Queen.

The Elikon 35 CM (Эликон 35СМ) is a viewfinder camera made by BeLomo (Belarus Optical & Mechanical Association) in the early nineties. Its fixed lens is the Industar 95 (38/2). In this series of 11 photos I show you how this lens was removed from the camera and converted to Leica-M mount so that I can use it with a Leica-M to E-mount helicoid adapter.

Losing a lens cap can be a nuisance. Evidently, someone found this one, and left it in the portion of a sign designed to hold brochures.

second later it was on the floor .. even tried to give him one of his own to leave mine allone, but didn´t work - maybe because it wasn´t CANON on it ....
I was sitting in Henry Blue the other day when I got the idea for this shot, I had been wanting to do a lens cap style one for awhile, but never got it how I wanted it.... then it came to me...like it often does..outta the blue..or in this case Henry Blue LOL ( that's the name of my car for those of you who do not know)
So here is it and you really do need to see it big and on black....its all in the details :)
So I wanted to say thanks to all the wonderful comments and replies to my novel question the other day, some of them are so funny and creative and made me laugh so much.....it put my little effort to shame I think lol
Check out my car sounds to day, a bit of Weird Al, and funny ( please note - it is not about me....I am an Excellent driver - thank you Rainman )
So hope you like this shot, a little bit different never hurt anyone lol
Happy today for we drive, tomorrow for we will drive and yesterday when we drove that thing home :) Car

The lens cap(s) for the Sekor 250mm ƒ 6.3 lens(es) seen in the prior two shots in my photostream, the lens(es) being for a Mamiya C-series 6x6cm camera. This model is very hard to replace if lost - they aren't being made any more, and there weren't a heck of a lot of extra ones made - and the lenses themselves aren't (and never were...) all that common! Taken in Albany, CA with a Nikon D610 at ISO 6400 with a Micro-Nikkor 105mm ƒ2.8 AF-D lens (not the AF-S!) Exposure is on the order of 1/90 sec @ ƒ 9
...a photographer will always wonder if he could have shot that one particular shot differently.
Or in this case, he'll just fit his lenscap on his Nikon, take a sip of his rum and look up at the sky and wonder if there is such a thing as the purpose of the universe.
Ladies and gentleman, Amit Sharma. His photos will surely not make you wonder if you could have shot that shot differently but you'll simply wish that you'd taken that damn shot yourself.
Shot at the end of the shoot on Sunday, somewhere near the first toll gate on NH4.
Ralph pushed me to do "something mechanical, a machine or mechanism". Here is a lens cap being taken apart for cleaning.
One of the worst things for putting dirt on your lens is the lens cap. I was worried about immersing it in water to clean it until I found out how to take it apart.
It's really quite simple. It's 3 bits of plastic and two springs. Using a straightened paper clip ( not sure what to use when we go paperless!), carefully lift the plastic arm on both sides of the sliding piece and it will pull right out. Do it carefully so as not to lose the spring. Now the bits can be cleaned in soapy water using a soft brush if needed for the really dirty bits. Once dry it just pushes back together.
You won't see some new pictures from trips to the canal any soon, apart from the ones I captured yesterday, since some asshole stole my bike which was in front of my house. Stolen between 12o'clock and 14:45 this afternoon. I don't think it's funny :s
This one is from the little bridge over the canal, near the Joint, and looking back towards the city of Mechelen. The place where my lenscap fell into the canal.
I have the impression this one is slightly out of focus.
Take a look at my Mixed Emotions Set to have an impression of the day.
Promo shots for the Fizzy Lifting Dots Camera Strap. Happy I got to use some of my vintage camera collection!
half frame camera with a 32mm f1.7 manually focusing lens. Focusing is from infinity to 2.5 feet. A selenium meter around the lens automatically sets the correct aperture and shutter speed in program fashion -- 1/30 at f1.7 to 1/800 at f 16.
A comparison of Nikon lens caps, with an older model on the left and the current model on the right. Both caps are for a 52mm filtered 50mm lens. (Left: a 50mm ƒ 1.4 AIs, right: a 50mm ƒ 1.8 AF-D...) Taken in Albany, CA by a Nikon D610 with a Nikkor 50mm ƒ 1.8 AF-D lens. (the cap on the right came off this lens!)

This is the new rotunda, under construction. A replica, actually, on the site of the original rotunda.
It finally arrived. And yes, I have stuck velcro to it, and yes it is wearing my Fuji S9600 lens cap and UV filter.
With the exception of the 18-55mm SAM Sony lens the rest of the gear is full frame capable and consists of a 2x tele-converter made by Vivitar - a 70-210mm Minolta zoom - a 28-80mm Minolta zoom and a Auto Rikenon prime lens of 55mm f2.8.
They can in fact all be multiplied by the formula 1.5 giving longer focal range by a half again.

My #1 homegirl and her husband came over to visit our apartment for the first time and brought me a birthday gift. :-) She knows I love purses/handbags, and the wallet is a perfect all-in-one job. It's a little tight to carry a DSLR (but it is cushiony!) so it'll be good for daytrips when I know I'll just have my camera out anyway. :-D
