Gelatin-silver photograph on Ultrafine Silver Eagle VC FB photographic paper, image size 24.6cm X 19.6cm, from a 8x10 Fomapan 100 negative exposed in a Tachihara 810HD triple extension field view camera fitted with a 610mm f9 Apo-Nikkor lens.

Signed, titled, and stamped verso.

 

The 610mm f9 Apo-Nikkor lens is not fitted with a shutter so the 2 second exposure was executed by removing and replacing the lenscap. Lens aperture was f128 and the small amount of image diffraction is negligible for an 8x10 contact photograph.

My friend once more approached me to do some product shots for her. This time it's for the JJC Auto lens cap for the LX5. I get to keep the cap in return. :)

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.

shot all day today, too.

i love my camera, but i'm getting slightly tired of this inseparable relationship. perhaps we need to "take a break."

 

of course then, when i went to the dance comp show, i kept seeing images to capture and thinking about that.

 

EXPLORED

I had already wound the camera, and not wanting to leave a shot to accidentally snap the inside of my lenscap, I had to take my cat for a walk instead.

I lost the lens cap of my camera and had ti buy a replacement. I feel that I have been judged, found guilty and sentenced to displaying the results of my carelessness so that passers-by may laugh. (Or I am displaying my allegiance to the Netherlands while I am in Amsterdam.)

Nice set, the QL17 rangefinder with B&W yellow filter, Hoya metal lenshood and Canon lenscap.

I can print any size lens cap size or strap width, in any color I have on hand. Even a double holder like the big green one which is an 87mm & a 52mm in one for my Black Rapid strap

Voguéo

Le trafic est fluide...

La ligne dessert : Gare d’Austerlitz, Bibliothèque François Mitterrand (à l’aller), Bercy (au retour), Ivry Pont Mandela et École vétérinaire de Maisons-Alfort . Au total, le trajet durera 55 mn pour effectuer la boucle en aller-retour.

 

fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogu%C3%A9o

Voguéo est un service public de transport en commun par navette fluviale assuré sur la Seine et la Marne.

Défini par le syndicat des transports d'Île-de-France (STIF) en 2007, le service a été inauguré le 28 juin 2008 entre la gare d’Austerlitz à Paris et l'école vétérinaire de Maisons-Alfort, avec un temps de parcours moyen de trente-cinq minutes, réduit à vingt-huit minutes l'année suivante.

Voguéo offre aux franciliens et touristes la possibilité de découvrir la Seine en amont de Paris, en utilisant les forfaits de transports habituels, ce qui n'est pas le cas des compagnies touristiques. Le service permet de découvrir plusieurs ponts et lieux de Paris, rarement inclus dans les parcours touristiques : le viaduc hélicoïdal d'Austerlitz qui supporte la ligne 5 du métro, le pont Charles-de-Gaulle, plus récent pont routier de la ville ouvert en 1992, la passerelle Simone-de-Beauvoir, dernière lancée sur la Seine à Paris en 2006, la bibliothèque François-Mitterrand, les Grands Moulins de Paris et le nouveau quartier de Paris Rive Gauche, le ministère de l'Économie, des Finances et de l'Industrie, unique édifice parisien ayant des piliers dans le cours du fleuve, le palais omnisports de Paris-Bercy et des échappées sur le parc de Bercy. Dans le Val-de-Marne, le paysage est plus industriel et la rive droite est longée par l'autoroute de l'Est, mais permet néanmoins de découvrir Chinagora et les rives de la Marne.

Took me a while, and a bit of panic, to find it, about 15 feet from my starting location. Can’t count the number of lens caps I’ve lost over the years - should be a better solution than sticking them in a pocket…

actually, the surface of where the lens cap is kept is light grey and a little shiny... (kind of like marble - in fact, i think it is marble...???) - but i underexposed this capture by quite a bit... and i like how it came out... black on black :-)

The third thing that my hand could reach that time. Hahaha. Sorry. XD

I could stare at this for hours.

 

The amount of detail was a result of the use of a slow flash and a nice macro lens.

Comparison Silent vs. EFCS Mode.

Please note: These Images have been shot in completely dark with lenscap on lens. The originals are completely black.

So, since I was asked, here's what I typically carry when I'm going out… It's actually fairly low-key…

 

1 - Sigma DP2 (hooray!)

2 - Lensmate filter adaptor for DP2. Only leaves the camera if I need to use the flash (throws a shadow…)

3 - Hoya +10 diopter close-up filter. My primary macro attachment, it is a wonderful piece of optics.

4 - 52mm lenscap attached to the camera strap. I don't really know why I keep it attached - I've never lost a lenscap before in my life, and the thing gets in the way sometimes. Shrug.

5 - Moleskine Cahiers or similar pocket-sized notebook. For field notes, if I remember.

6 - TEC Accessories PicoPen, recent addition, always on my keychain now, and great for making said field notes. I briefly discuss this pen here.

7 - Romisen RC-C6-II, adjustable focus flashlight which produces a nice flood and is small enough to hold in my camera-steadying hand. Good for illuminating plants in the woods…

8 - Marumi +4, +2, +1 macro filters. Never heard of this brand before, and they're not great quality. They're good to have on hand because if I need to swap them out quickly I can toss them on the ground without worrying about damage. I'd still like to get a nice (read- Hoya) +1, +2, +4 set one of these days so that I can dial in my macro settings without sacrificing so much quality… But for now these come in fairly handy.

 

Also in the future, my kit will include a second (maybe third) battery for the DP2, and a Manfrotto Modopocket.

 

Cheers!

Giant Cap from the lens I am renting.

 

Shown next to my Giant Head and Giant Nose, for scale!

Experimenting with extension tubes and the 35mm f/1.8 DX lens. This is the lens cap from the 35mm lens.

A try out of manual focus on the camera (no instructions).

The instruction booklets (about 6 miniscule pages if you are lucky) that come with new electronic equipment these days are no help. You either go on line to find something or guess and hope you remember what you've done!

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.

... where was I meant to start? the year started on a thursday =]

 

ah well.

Ive started now.

 

Mendoza has a "Vines of Mendoza" tasting room where for a fee you can sample wines from various producers. They offer a $75 or $150 US per person tasting flight of 5 wines. We opted for the cheaper version. Tiny tastings in tiny glasses and not the quality we expected for the price. Since it was happy hour 50% off from 7 to 9 pm we sat on the street patio and sampled a still expensive wine but at least a decent pour in a nicer glass. Once was enough. The wine was Gimenez Rui Malbec and the next night in a restaurant we had the whole bottle for less money than the 2 glasses here. Geeez!

Last night I created a semi-ghetto macro softbox to use off camera speedlight. However, due to the seam created by the two papers which create my makeshift infinity sweep, I had to make an awkwardly tight composition of my 35mm f/1.8G lens. To be honest, I think the lighting would be ten times better if I had another light source coming from the left, but considering what I had to work with, I'm satisfied with how it turned out. Not bad for my second try at strobist work.

I'm the king...

i got my first DSLR its a Canon EOS 70D, so got this book Hope it helps :) has anyone read this book and did it help?

Well we lost a lens cap during a trip to the park a little over a month ago.

 

after sitting down and looking at the photos, i think i found it.

 

go figure!

stuff i bought today ;)

  

Um...I'm starting to do x-processing on my own instead of PS actions, and I think it could had been a little stronger. and It would have been nice it there wasn't so much grain. Grain annoys me to no end - unless it makes the photo better-

 

I ordered my flash and lens today!! It should be here Thursday. I can't wait. I'm uber excited.

 

Oh and I was tagged by Natalie to do a 10 things. So I will probably do that next time I upload. :D

My cousin and I had an initial mix up upon me getting to Chatham. It was rainy, dark and very blah. I had explained I was taking the bus because VIA Rail website said that the last train to Chatham was at 4:30pm which I couldn't make on a Friday. Turns out that the 7:10pm train that leaves Toronto does stop here but they don't advertise it. AND it gets in at the same time as the bus does at 10:25pm.

 

The bus depot had moved since I was here 7.5 years ago so I was pretty disoriented and a little freaked out when I got to Chatham and there was no Mary Margaret. The bus depot office was closed and it was on the outer edge of Chatham ... and it was raining. Heck, just like a photo walk! ;p

 

Luckily, I got in touch with my cousin but I have to laugh now when she asked me where I was that I blurted out "I have no idea!!" since it was so dark that I couldn't see any signs on the way into town.

 

I went to the Tim Horton's out of desperation to wait for MM's arrival and decided to take this shot while I waited. :p

This week we were in Meghamalai which means Cloudy Mountain in Tamil.

 

Hills, forest, tea estates and a lot of elusive wildlife. Everyone you meet has seen elephants, bison, leopards, deer, hornbills and what not. The grand total of what we saw didn't reach double digits.

 

The place in the photo is called Vattapparai (circular rock) a favourite haunt of elephants and bison. There are water streams between the hills which attract them at dawn and dusk. Whether it is our luck or the bright blue jacket Nila wore, all we could see was a young bison which bounded into the forest before I could take a proper shot. Arun could not even open his lenscap.

 

However the landscape was beautiful. All green and misty with a crisp and cool air. We trekked quite a bit and got well reminded of the fact that I am the least fit in the family.

 

The tiny figures you see in the photo are Arun and Nila who decided to walk further when I needed a break and Uma gave me company.
