This picture is almost straight out of camera, except for a couple of edits: A small amount of extra sharpness and a soft vignette. I start to shoot with Cinelook picture profile from VisionColor: vision-color.com/products/picture-styles-canon-eos/
I have a telescope that I rarely take out - not sure why - but I did take it out this evening. It's not an expensive one (Tasco 114mm reflector) but I managed to get this shot of the moon by simply sticking my iPhone into the lens of the telescope. Pretty crude but not a bad result, eh?
Probably wouldn't have even bothered if it weren't for this COVID lockdown period...
Keeping safe and occupied during the first six months of Covid-19 has taken its toll, in wear and tear, of my gloves bought at the beginning of the year.The family has been fortunate in dealing with the pandemic ,so far, and feel desperate for those who have been less fortunate....Hopefully my new gloves will not need the usage borne by my older pair with the understanding that we can all come through the remainder of this pandemic safely and quickly.
The Grassmarket, a large square in the lower part of the Old Town, sitting right below the enormous edifice of Edinburgh Castle. Packed with bars, restaurants, a regular street market, hotels, it is normally thriving with locals, visitors, tourists. In fact normally so busy with students on a pub crawl, stag and hen parties getting drunk and lots of tourists that often locals tend to avoid it or walk quickly through while muttering about "bloody tourists" getting in the way. How things have changed in a few weeks...
Some of the bars have had the windows boarded up as a precaution while they lie closed, which, along with the empty streets, adds to a surreal and unsettling atmosphere. Middle of the afternoon, area should be jumping with people. What strange times we find ourselves in.
Several of the resident pigeons walked up to me and looked up at me, as if to say, come on, where is everyone? No doubt poor things are waiting for people to drop some of the food they are eating in the Grassmarket so they can claim it.
A video I made for Age UK Lancashire's exhibition 'Art of Lockdown'. I accompanied images of my artworks and photographs with my narrated blog.
Now that I'm in Lockdown I have time to spend with my camera. It's all going to be indoors but I'm lucky I've got some lights and a spare room. This lady is about 12" tall and makes an interesting project. This is one stripbox camera right set on a very low setting. Minimal PP including a crop. Taken with an 18-55 Pentax Kit Lens.
