Photo365 – Day 224 – levitation

I saw some great levitation photos this morning which triggered me to have a quick initial go to see how I thought they were done. I’m not happy with the result and will have to look at some techniques on the subject as it’s a totally new avenue for me. I’ve shared the shot anyway […]

Photo365 – Day 223 – keep out

The Bracebridge Pumphouse from behind the fence, taken with the Olympus Pen EP2 and a new Toy Lens I’m testing. The lens is a c mount security lens with a f/1.4 aperture so you get really shallow depth of field. It vignettes, it has masses of chromatic aberrations and it’s not even multi coated so […]

Photo365 – Day 220 – abstract

I was experimenting with the Olympus EP2 by placing a Pentax macro lens in front. Not connected just butted up to the body. It gave a fairly decent shot with little loss in contrast. I then turned the lens round so the filter thread was flush to the lens mount and by accident picked up […]

Photo365 – Day 218 – tattoo

Well not really, but the power of the sun threw shadows from a pint glass on to a table so I placed my hand in the shot and let the shadow fall across my knuckles in a sort of love/hate way. Iphone and hipstamatic

Sun breaking through the clouds today…an hour or so later we had flash floods and my garage was 2in deep in water. I cleared a garage roof downfall pipe a few weeks ago as a result it’s working and sending water to the drain, which I hadn’t realised until today was also blocked so I […]
