My daughter Sian came around for the evening and we started playing Rummikub. She won 3 rounds! Here we are at the start of the 3rd round. I thought my opening hand was a good one but I still lost.
Today I want to talk about two ''Myths'' in photography..
One is ''Exposure'' or ''It's All About Light''..When we were at our beginner/learning stage we were told that ''exposure'' is a fundamental element of photography. The ''correct exposure'' was the light that our body & lens should get to create the image. It was all about the correct light. Then I met with ''Low Key''. Low Key images striked me when I first saw them. They were dark, not enough light were on neither on the subject nor on the context. However the ''feel'' was completely different comparing with the ''correct exposured'' images. I discovered the power of low key, when I start to work with ''emotions'' rather than chasing the technical perfection. Low Key is the ''key'' to enter the darker/emotional zones and into human psyche.
The second myth is the perception of beauty and using models for creating beauty in images. Why do we use models? Because they are beautiful..Is it so? Yes, they might be beautiful, but that is NOT the reason for choosing models-we choose models because they are also actors/actresses who play an act, a story, the know how to pose, how to act and can do that for different scenarios. Models can reflect what emotion we want to add to the image- they know what they have to do. and models are not ''objects of beauty'' only. A good model can play many characters, can give many emotions and is open to experimentals rather than trying to show her and/or seen as an instagram beauty queen.

Shot this on my first morning in Perth - slept quite little the night before, and had to walk like 5km to get here (and earned a blister as reward). It was also my first real test of the X100T as a landscape camera. Everything turned out great - I didn't find myself missing the wide angle field of view, and I was treated to some lovely still water and some very nice clouds :)
Technical Details:
Fuji X100T + WCL-X100
2.5 seconds, f/16, ISO 200

Although this is similar to one I have shot before, I thought Id try it again for the challenge, I think its quite beautiful even in black and white.
Plows are something I haven't shot much of over the years, mostly because the snowfall in New York's Capital Region usually doesn't warrant them. January 7, 2003 was a major exception, however. With our area having been hit with two back-to-back nor'easters, something had to be done. On this day, I was out running errands when I came across a fairly normal CP Train 169 heading north out of Albany with the usual pair of NS Dash-9s for power. Being on break from college and not having much else to do, I decided to follow the train north. After jumping ahead of the train and arriving in Mechanicville, I was pleasantly surprised to find a CP plow train with this Jordan Spreader holding on the Colonie Main at CPF467. I headed up to Coons to wait for it, and had the opportunity to shoot ST Train AYMO first. Then came the dramatic moment seen here, and after that Train 169 and ST Train EDMO (4 trains at Coons in 1 hour!). I then headed up to Crescent where I caught a Guilford plow train coming off the Rotterdam Branch (a photo of which can be found in my B&M book). This was quite the catch for me at this time as I had only been doing railroad photography for a few years and wasn't yet connected to the rest of the railfan community to have even known that two plow trains would be running! So, thank God I was too young and naive to blow-off a pair of NS Dash-9s on 169!
