Sights & SoundsI got an iPhone Microscope in for review, so here’s a shot with it…an abstract pattern at x60…can you tell what it is?
This is a single jelly bean shot with the Olympus EP2 and toy lens with +10 macro adaptor on the front. The focus point is never centre and the blur, aberrations, vignetting and weird focus points make the shots a little odd, but I like the effects. The jelly bean was on the carpet and I shot with the lens resting on the floor for support. I focus by moving the camera in and out until I get the right parts sharp.
Taken today through the window of the plane on the flight home from Gran Canaria – after spending a week in gorgeous 23-27degree heat and sun. iPhone and hipstamatic.
A wind surfer at Pozo Izquierdo in Gran Canaria, taken using the Olympus Pen EP2 and 40-150mm lens set at 150mm.
The water was quite tame so there wasn’t much major action. It seems they can jump several meters in the air on active days.
A sculpture found on the Paseo Costa Canaria in Playa Del Ingles. I used the hipstamatic camera in the iPhone and chose grainy black and white film mode.
A couple walking over the dunes at Maspalomas. I used the iPhone and Hipstamatic, cropped to vertical format for more impact.
A walk in the boat yard at the marina of Puerto de Mogán provided a good opportunity to shoot people restoring their boats. I have a closer shot of this chap but like this version for the sense of scale. Taken with the Olympus EP2.
This is of the big wheel at the Holiday World fairground in Maspalomas, Gran Canaria. I mounted the Olympus EP2 on a tripod to hold it steady for a 10sec exposure at f/22 ans ISO200.
We’d hired a car to go in to the mountains and took the road up to Roque Nublo. We stopped at various scenic points along the way and the light was at times amazing. On the walking ascent to Roque Nublo I spotted these trees backlit in the valley below. They stood out from the drab volcanic surrounds. I used the Olympus Pen EP2 with 40-150mm at the 150mm setting to get a tight crop and the most compressed perspective.
