Montana de Oro State Park, Los Osos, California 2006

You use a macro lens to change your perspective, but then you see a wider angle shot that you really want to capture... so you have to move 50m from your subject.

My biggest disappointment in New York was getting the subway to 'The Vessel' (a winding structure of 2,500 steps to walk up) and finding it closed. You could still go under it and look up.

Took this one lying flat on my back. Reminded me of those rocket images from space when the booster is jettisoned from the upper stage...unless it's Elon Musk's Starship!

As a general rule, telephoto lenses are more well suited for subject isolation than wide and normal lenses. This arises due to lens physics. The longer the focal length of a lens, the narrower the depth of field (if you keep the framing the same).

Moving away from automatic focus lenses to manual focus only lenses has taught me to be a better composer and a more methodical photographer. I no longer feel rushed.

 

I have been shooting my camera in fully Manual Mode for years now and it has become second nature and now manually focusing is teaching me the same as it becomes second nature. Maybe it is my age (68) or just continuing to learn photography. I like this new phase. Combining manual focus only lenses with a mirrorless camera body becomes a joy rather than a chore even at wide open apertures.

Looking at life on my daily walk

One terrible evening in winter, the husband decided to be separated from his wife, but the wife realised that their children couldn't be separated from them.

I love a lone tree, but I never seem to be able to find a nice one. A gentle mist in the background of this image gave the separation I was after to let the tree stand on its own.

This is a song I love. "We are" by HAEVN. It must resonate with so many people through these difficult times, held apart by Covid-19 lock down and hurt by worry and loss.

Walking through the dark night

Calling out a name

Waiting for an answer

 

How do we end up here?

 

Try to find a shoreline

With no ground beneath my feet

And they shine their mind up

And try to understand

 

Cold, we are, we are, we are

And cold, we are, we are, we are

Baby we´re lost

Come home

With me

Baby we´re lost

Come home

 

Once we were in sunlight

With nothing in between

Now we share a distance

Our shadows at our feet

 

I'm blinded by the silence

No horizon that I see

Feel the cold the friend drops

Salted by my tears

 

Cold, we are, we are, we are

And Cold, we are, we are, we are

Baby we're lost

Come home

With me

Baby we're lost

Come home

 

And we walk until

A new day will break

Until the heart ways off

And the storm will fade

And we'll talk again

And then be friends

And we'll both will see

That our love has grown

 

Baby we're lost

Come home

With me

Baby we're lost

Come home

 

Baby we´re lost

Come home

With me

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Some distant eye contact here in a shot that instantly caught my eye. The shapes of the light and shadow, the position of the subjects and in relation to my position especially - I just loved this composition. Enjoy full screen by pressing 'L'.

Have a great week to all.

The Bochumer Verein/ Jahrhunderthalle is a subway station below Alleestrasse in the Stahlhausen district of Bochum. It is located on the site of the former Bochum Association steelworks with the Jahrhunderthalle and Westpark. The Century House and the Thyssen Krupp House are not far away on the street.

This spot will be familiar to many Brampton/Caledon/Orangeville photographers so I am hoping this is a new take on a familiar scene.
