I've taken to leaving cameras wherever I most frequently find myself so I can follow the muse and grab a photograph whenever the inspiration hits.
This is from the Fuji F10, which I leave in my office at work, right next to my keyboard.
I am still getting a feel for this camera, which my niece Monica kindly gifted to me when she bought a newer camera. It has a wonderful sensor in it, which picks up a superb dynamic range of lights through darks, and renders high ISO captures (up to 800) with the smooth grain similar to a good black & white film. It does color well also, but I seem to enjoy converting photographs from it into black & white.
I was working on taking a self-portrait, getting the feel for the focus and composition of the frame with this photo. Over a lunch hour, just fooling around with the camera to learn more about it.
I love the background of photos that is duplicated in the lens of my eyeglasses. My world redux.
In doing the black & white conversion in Lightroom 3, I asked for Karen's input,a nd she agreed that this mix was to her liking.
I made the white of my beard, in my eyebrows and what little you can see of the hairs on my head, pop out, contrasted with the slightly darkened skin tones.
As I was getting my hair cut this afternoon, I remarked to my stylist (yes, I go to a salon and not a barber - vanity is all), that I was really enjoying the color of white that my hair had turned into. She agreed with me, of course!, and I said that I had my mother's coloring. Mom started turning white when she was in her 30's from what I can recall of the tales told. In my memory, she's got a shocking full head of silvery-white hair, with gentle curves to it. I may be thinning on the top, but at least what's there is pleasing to my eye, and, I suppose, that's the harshest critic to please.
Here's looking at you!

i've got several photos because they all look blurry. in truth, there aren't clean edges in the painting so it seems blurry.

I was trawling through my Berlin pics again to make a photobook and found this one that I hadnt really thought about doing before. This was taken on Gleis (platform) 17 at Grunewald station in Berlin. Ive put more about the history of this station in my previous post on at this location. Very sombre site.
Don Edwards Wildlife Refuge. Schneider Symmar-S 210mm. Arista Edu Ultra 100. Rodinal 1:50 stand for 7 minutes (I started with 20C but by the time I was done it was about 21-22C?). Vinegar bath, Ilford Rapid Fixer. Epson WF500 scanner. (Note to self: Try lesser development time to preserve highlights, esp. if temps are higher than 20C).
Scene's brightness range was about 8 stops. Placed the details on the right branch of the foreground tree in zone 4. the highlights were in zone 9, and the shadows were in zone 2.
Am trying out the Arista Edu Ultra 100 film and I have to say I am very pleased. I used it at ISO100, and haven't done any personal film speed tests yet. At the manufacturer's recommended speed It holds the brightness ranges well, seems to have very good tonality and transition in the gray areas.

(yeah , im obsessed with this corner , and blanky)
When something like a soul becomes
Initialized and folded up like paper dolls and little notes
You can't expect a bit of hope
So while you're outside looking in
Describing what you see
Remember what you're staring at is me
