LOMO LC-A, Kodak EBX @ Toshimaen, Tokyo, Japan
I took this object with Holga from another angle on the same day, but from LC-A, I got the different impression and feeling. When it comes to Holga, I went upstairs to take a photo of a wave swinger nearby, but in case of LC-A, I went downstairs and took it a little remotely. Interesting different impression !!!
Holga's photo is:
In 1925, Duke Kahanamoku brought the sport of surfing to Huntington Beach and the Southern California shores. The city’s first surf shop, Gordie’s Surf Boards, opened in 1953. Six years later, the first U.S. Surfing Championships were held in Huntington Beach. The following year, the Surfing Championships were covered on television, which rocketed Huntington Beach’s international fame as a surfer’s paradise. In 2005, the USA Surf Team adopted Huntington Beach as its official home and the Association of Surfing Professionals-North America moved to the city.

Little Morton Hall was built between 1504 and 1508 for William Moreton.
In 1559 William had a new floor inserted at gallery level in the Great Hall, and added the two large bay windows looking onto the courtyard.
Running the entire length of the south range the Long Gallery is roofed with heavy gritstone slabs, the weight of which has caused the supporting floors below to bow and buckle. Architectural historians Peter de Figueiredo and Julian Treuherz describe it as "a gloriously long and crooked space, the wide floorboards rising up and down like waves and the walls leaning outwards at different angles." The crossbeams between the arch-braced roof trusses were probably added in the 17th century to prevent the structure from "bursting apart" under the load.

It was a wet and windy day along the California coastline today...
(Sorry I've been dumping and running lately - busy with work and home - will catch up with you all soon)
I typically upload in small sets - don't just look at the latest one in my photostream as you might be missing something you'll like more.... and your comments are ALWAYS welcome :)

Waves Breaking over a wood and concrete groyne on Brighton Shingle Beach.
A multiple exposure image, made up of 62 images, taken at 10 second + intervals.
The exposures were layered in Adobe Photoshop. All the layers above the base layer were given progressively reduced opacity, so that each layer had equal overall weight.
From the base upwards, the layer opacity (the "opposite" of transparency) progressed by the following series:
1/1 (=100%), 1/2 (=50%), 1/3 (≅33%), 1/4 (=25%), 1/5 (=20%), 1/6 (≅17%) etc.
Because the version of Photoshop that I used only increments opacity by 1% units the top layer weightings were approximate. For example layer 62 required an opacity of 1/62 (≅1.6129%) - approximated in Photoshop to 2%.
Here are some typical individual shots (indicating the level of "choppiness" of the waves)...Picture #1, Picture #2, Picture #3, Picture #4, Picture #5
I had tried to recreate the wispy effects that can be achieved (with moving water with long exposures) that I obtained in near darkness - by using two ND4 filters in bright daylight. However, even using the slowest ISO speed setting, it was not possible to obtain very long durations single exposures. This is why I took the multiple exposure approach.
