This was created on my iPhone 6s Plus using the Lightroom App and captured as a RAW/DNG file. It was automatically transferred into a Lightroom Library and then edited in photoshop. It went through several steps including:#AuroraHDR, then Macphun Noiseless CK, next I used Apply Image on two separate layers to create masks for two curve layers to adjust shadows and highlights. Finally, cloned out some seabirds (that looked like sensor dust spots!) and then used ON1's resize to scale up the image.
In short I was basically messing around :)

I took delivery of my new Nikon D500, and here is a series of images taken in my yard on day 1. I love the snappy auto-focus. high ISO performance is really impressive for a crop sensor camera. My other camera is a D4s, so it takes a lot to impress me when it comes to ISO. The dynamic range is slightly less that the D4s, so I'll need to watch my exposures more closely. Bottom line: this is a killer bird photography camera.

No soy mucho de este tipo de fotos, pero todo es probar. Hay personajillos por flickr que me dicen que haga más cosas de estas :) , pues aquí tenéis. Además estas no me han disgustado y he tenido un problema para elegir la principal, al final me he decantado por esta por las formas delicadas, aunque el encuadre podía haber sido mejor. Cada cual que diga la que le gusta y sino le gusta ninguna que lo diga igualmente :)
Para otro día las hago con el 50mm que estas las hice con el tele porque no me apetecía cambiar el objetivo en ese momento, andaba aire y en el campo ya he tenido malas experiencias con motas en el sensor.
JPGs straight out of camera using Nikon's NATURAL colour profile. The old CCD sensors have been said to be more filmic (if not noisier) and this is the Nikon D60, an old DSLR which was first announced back in Jan 2008 (a 15 year old camera)
You may have noticed i've not used my Leica M240 much since getting the Leica CL. I thought it was time to dust it off for a shoot. What amazed me after time away from the camera is how bad the low light ability of the M240 sensor is. It felt like the jump from the M8 to the M9 or M9 to the M240. Very noticeable! It shows how good the CL sensor is.
Low light and 1/30 motion blur gave a quite filmic looking photo to my eyes - imperfect. Fun catching up with Becca tonight after a long time.

The 1/2.5" sensor of the Canon PowerShot SD630 I am trying to repair. The gears look ok and I got the lens retracted. I'll try putting it back together tomorrow and see if it works. Wish me luck.

DJI Global worked with Hasselblad to develop the camera of the Mavic 2 pro drone to include a 20 megapixel sensor. This means we can print a shot like this really big. I think a 5 foot print of this junkyard in western Kansas would look pretty cool. #photography
Old snapshot from way back when. I really like the photo, but it was pure luck that it came out this good. Still have the camera, the prime and the cat's sleeping on my lap. I've taken over 25 000 photos since with this body, and it keeps working great. These days I might be able to use light to construct something like this, but convincing the cat to pose would be very difficult.

This may or may not be kinda badass. We've got a bunch of varmints here in Lower Alabama, and I'm curious about what skulks around in the night. This thing has 6MP resolution at its best and can be programmed to shoot one to nine shots every time the IR motion sensor is tripped. It also can do video. The flash is supposed to reach out to 50 feet, and from testing in the living room, it's bright as hell.
Too bad it doesn't shoot RAW....
I'm too tired and lazy to strap it to a tree today, but tomorrow we'll see what happens.
Rig shots are always fun to edit, right? Ahaha, only if you have an addiction to cloning!
I was browsing through a photo set earlier and noticed this one. Apparently, my lens got tremendously dirty and wet from the rain. I specifically remember looking down and thinking, "Damn, that can't be good!" and cleaning my lens immediately.
While sensor dust has always been a problem, I think this effect was a bit interesting, so I kept it. Interesting in that, "Oh-god-I-don't-ever-want-to-clone-again" sort of way.

Agfa Selectronic S Sensor - Ilford fp4
Quantum technology or stage at a music festival? Both would have one thing in common: students.
Oscar-Qube, short for Optical Sensors based on CARbon materials: QUantum Belgium, is an experiment developed by a group of students from the University of Hasselt, Belgium. Part of ESA Education Office’s Orbit Your Thesis! programme, the experiment arrived at the International Space Station on Space X Dragon CR23 resupply mission yesterday.
This week, ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet will install the experiment in the Ice Cubes Facility that offers commercial and educational access to the microgravity environment of the Space Station.
Oscar-Qube’s mission is to create a detailed map of Earth’s magnetic field. It makes use of a new type of magnetometer that exploits quantum sensing, meaning that it is highly sensitive, offers measurements to the nano scale, and has a better than 100-nanosecond response time.
These features combine to create a powerful experiment that, once in position, will allow it to map the Earth’s magnetic field to an unrivalled level of precision.
Oscar-Qube is designed and built exclusively by the first student team to test a quantum technology sensing device in space. They will go on to manage operations during its ten-month stay onboard the International Space Station.
Orbit Your Thesis! is a hands-on ESA educational programme that helps university students realise the dream of putting an experiment of their own design into space. The Oscar-Qube students have been assisted at every stage of their journey by ESA experts, helping not only to develop the experiment, but also investing in the students themselves, equipping them with the skills and mindsets needed for future careers in the space sector.

The Sierra high country is timeless. These granite mountains, these meadows, and even this tree sentinel have been here longer than I've been alive and will be here much longer after I am gone. They stand day after day, month after month, year after year. Not waiting for anything, not expecting anything. No deadlines, no schedules, no Mondays, Wednesdays, or Saturdays.
If you spend enough time in the mountains, you begin to tap into that endless cycle. The feeling of "having to do something" slips away, along with pressures, schedules, and responsibilities. I don't know anything quite so pacifying and relieving as connecting with the stillness of the mountains.

Learning to shoot landscapes w the easiest subject you can find here in WI using a 7D Mark II (cropped sensor) and B+W XS Pro circular polarizing filter to "make the clouds pop" even on a "cheepo" but solid EF-S10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens. All of these shots ("WI Big Skies") are taken w the camera's built in HDR function set to "Auto" EV bracketing and processed in Lightroom 6.1 to bring out shadows and light. I welcome any suggestions for improving my methods and technique.
This is an other picture of our new campaign for next summer.
I took it last week at the upper terrace which is on the top of our office in Varanasi (Benaras).

Here is a shot from December 2. It was one of the craziest burns I've seen over San Francisco. There were so many colors and stages to this sunrise that I thought my sensor might have been fried from the overload.
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year, and looking forward to shooting in 2016!
Thanks for looking!

A very popular camera by Agfa from the late 70s and a little marvel of industrial design. The "Optima Sensor" name had been used by Agfa for a series of simple electronic consumer cameras since the late 60s denoting the presence of a big, red, feather-touch shutter button (sensor) that adorned the top of the camera and was considered very hi-tech at the time.
This last series of the Agfa Optimas were marketed during the late 70s and production continued well into the 80's being hugely successful in the european market. At least 5 different models exist, including a rangefinder (Agfa Optima 1535) and one equipped with an electronic flash, aptly named "Agfa Optima Flash". The best online source of information regarding these cameras can be found here:
www.edition-oldenburg.de/agfa_optima.html
The Optima 1035 pictured here sits second from the top of the line-up feature-wise. It is a zone-focus camera with a fully automatic exposure system based on the Agfa Paratronic electronic shutter. Despite its introduction at a time when plastic was already being used extensively in camera manufacture, the littke Agfa is mostly made of metal with a very durable black coating. Some parts are made of plastic (like the film advance lever or the focusing ring) but the overall feel is that of a solid, durable camera.
The most prominent feature of the camera is the HUGE and extremely bright viewfinder which is a small revelation for first-time users. It is very close in size and brightness to the viewfinders found in premium rangefinders and makes using the camera a real joy. In the 1035 the VF features three distance symbols and a red needle that moves between them according to the chosen focus distance, the minimum being 0.9m. The frame line is illuminated and there are parallax correction marks for close subjects.
Another unique feature of the Optima is the lack of a rewind crank. With the help of (rather flimsy) toggle switch on the top plate, the film advance lever doubles as a rewind crank, a clever design that made the installation of such a bright finder on such a small camera possible.
Upon opening the film door, another clever feature makes its apperance: When loading the camera, the film is passed under a small shield on the winding side which protects film that has already been exposed from accidental opening of the film door.
The lens is a fast f2.8, 40mm four-element Solitar-S ("S" denoting multi-coating) which is quite sharp under good lighting conditions with good contrast and resistance to flare.
Shutter speeds go up to 1/1000s and in low light the Paratronic can stay open for at least one full second. The high top shutter speed combined with the minimum diaphragm opening of f22 ensure proper exposure of fast film even under the brightest conditions. The shutter is completely battery-dependent, it doesn't open at all if batteries are not installed. The feather-touch shutter release ensures minimum shake when taking the shot, reducing the chance of a blurry shot in relatively slow speeds.
Agfa engineers were clever enough to put the CdS cells of the metering system at the six o'clock position of the lens beauty ring, a fact that prevents shadowing of the sensors when a lens hood is used.
Not everything is good on the little Agfa though. For starters, the ASA setting stops at 400 which can be quite limiting if one wants to push fast film. Also, there is no backlight compensation provision, one has to change the ASA setting to deal with backlit subjects.
Additionally (and most annoyingly) the shutter produces an awful screeching sound when fired, probably the worst-sounding shutter I've ever come across, regardless of camera type.
Another ill-conceived feature of the camera (perhaps imposed by the necessity for small size) is the fact that the battery department is accessible only after opening the film door, so in case the batteries die mid-roll, the film must be rewound in order to change them. To make things worse, there doesn't seeem to be any means of knowing if the batteries are weak. The camera uses an uncommon arrangement of three 625 button cells, but at least its exposure system is designed for the common alkaline ones, not the obsolete mercury cells.
For some reason, Agfa deemed it necessary to equip the camera with a red LED lamp that sits above the lens barrel and lights up momentarily every time the shutter is fired, letting everyone know that you've taken their picture. It also blinks during countdown when the (mechanical) self-timer is activated.
As you can see from the picture, the Optima has no strap lugs, as Agfa chose to equip the camera with a proprietary screw-on neck strap that attaches on the left side, a solution that is a complete failure in my opinion. First of all, if you lose the strap there is no way you can replace it with a generic one. Also, the choice of a long neck strap is very poor for such a small, light camera which would benefit most from a short wrist strap, although a pair of scissors and a couple of rivets can easily remedy that. On top of that, placing the wrist strap on the left side is totally counterintuitive, as it virtually precludes secure single-handed operation of the camera with the right hand. According to the manual, the port for the screw-on strap doubles as the tripod mount, although this obviously implies that the camera can be used only in vertical orientation when on a tripod.
Overall, the small size and all-black color, combined with an accurate, fully automatic exposure system, a good semi-wide lens and an unsurpassed viewfinder, make this little Agfa very attractive as a stealthy street shooter. Still, there are a few shortcomings that make it fall short of being the perfect "little black beauty" a title I reserve for the Olympus XA2, my "golden standard" for this particular category of cameras.

Is progress truly progress? How do you improve upon perfection? Not once have I ever worried about getting dust on the Sensor, when changing lenses.
Not just any camera. Why?
Back to real photography . . . No batteries required!
Manual everything.
Whether you realise it or not, regardless which brand camera you are loyal to, THIS CAMERA, that is the Nikon F, was the father to all Single Lens Reflex (SLR) cameras that followed.
I searched long and hard for this pristine example. Easily looked at 100 cameras. It is 99.9% perfect, though 54 years old.
I first saw war correspondents, during the Vietnam Conflict with the Nikon F strapped around their necks. This camera spawned my enduring interest in Nikon.
The Nikon F 35mm film camera was introduced, April 1959 and was Nikon's first SLR camera. My camera was manufactured by Nippon Kogaku K. K., Japan, between July and September 1967.
The March 1959 Philadelphia trade show (Master Photo Dealers and Finishers Association Convention) of the Photo Marketing Association saw the US introduction of three new top brand Japanese SLR lines: the Minolta SR-2 with 55/1.8 and a list price of $249.50, the Canon Canonflex with 50/2 and a list price of $299.95, and the Nikon F with a 50/2 had a list price of $359.50, which costs more, today, unless it is in poor condition.
The Nikon F was the first Japanese SLR to have a lens lineup from 21mm to 1000mm.
The Nikon F was the first 35mm SLR with 100% Viewfinder.
The Nikon F was the first 35mm SLR with Mirror lock up.
The Nikon F was the first 35mm SLR with interchangeable focusing screens.
There were many firsts, in the Nikon F.
The Nikon F was superseded in 1972, by the Nikon F2 series, after a production total of 862,600 to 1,051,051 bodies, less about 90,000 Serial Numbers reserved for the (Nikon S3M range finder camera bodies).
The Nikon F marketed and sold exclusively for the German market were branded Nikkor F.
Here are some very good articles about the birth of the Nikon F-

Note: This camera and lens were pre-owned. When I decide to purchase pre-owned photographic equipment, it must look this well maintained and cared for, plus function perfectly, or I am not interested. Can you imagine this camera is 54 years old? I estimate that is was assembled on Tuesday, September 12, 1967, when approximately 158.7143 cameras were assembled every working day.
$306.27 AUD Nikon F camera body cost
$423.50 AUD Nikkor-SC Auto f=55mm 1:1.2 lens with HS-3 Lens Hood, Nikon L-1A Lens Filter cost
$22.00 AUD Nikon Nippon Kogaku 52mm J.U.M. 515,897 Lens Cap cost
$48.00 Nikon AR-1 cost
As I did not purchase everything all at once, I didn't notice the cost, so much. I examined many samples and asked a lot of questions, before I settled on these items. And, I just waited until what I wanted became available.
You may wonder why I did not go for a black edition. I could not be 100% assured it had not been like mine, but painted black. Many of the black Nikon F camera bodies are brassed all along the edges and very few examples are as nice as mine. Lastly, the black version commands a ridiculous price for exactly the same camera, except they are black. I just like the finish and contrasting black leatherette of mine. Refer to this weblink- www.destoutz.ch/typ_finish.html#black
So, you may wonder why I did not go for a later model "Nikon "Apollo" F. All slick advertizing by U.S. camera retailers, back in the day and plastic bits on the Rewind Lever and Self-Timer Lever. Also, it has a later Focusing Screen and an Eye Level View Finder that will accept diopter correction lenses, as well as Type 2 threaded flash sync terminal. The only difference that I can see between the two Nikon F and the "Apollo", is on the flash contact: the early 7303xxx has white insulating plastic on the flash connection and the late 7444xxx has black insulating plastic. Are the cosmetic changes worth more to me? No, quite the opposite. I wanted the bulletproof version, like what was used during the Vietnam war.
As a perfect counter balance to this gem, I use a Sekonic Studio Deluxe II L-389M Light Meter that does not require batteries.
I have found using this combination has made me much more careful and thoughtful as a photographer. Actually have to plan and think about camera settings and equivalent exposures before taking your shots.

With really warm temperatures, our workshop students' cameras were running a little hotter than normal. No, their cameras were not exploding but I did have a little fun with it in this single exposure image captured in Arches National Park.
How I Got The Shot
This is a 20 second single exposure image where I shot for about 15 seconds with the camera locked on the tripod before releasing the camera for the final 5 seconds. During this last 5 seconds, I moved the camera free-hand using the lighted LCD screens to make the smoke.
