Three shots of the exact same scene from the Sigma DP1s just metered differently to gain the true detail of the white wall and the rich blue of the sky. One cannot have the perfect exposure in this scenerio without the use of split neutral density filters or manipulative photoshopping... unless you have an amazing sensor!<br />
<br />
Here is a poorly edited combination of the first image and last image to make the exposure more even.<br />

Here are a few of my shots with the Nikon 1 V1 with 70-200 2.8 VR attached however I am not a very accomplished astrology photographer so don't expect award winning shots. They are merely a visual reference of the different stages we witnessed here in Abbotsford, BC<br />

Despite this, the layout of the camera is brilliant and the limitation of the fixed wide angle lens is very appealing to a street photographer like myself. Sure I'd love to own the more modern equivalents such as the Nikon Coolpix A or the Ricoh GRII but since I cant justify that kind of expense and being that I won the Sigma, I shouldn't really complain and I should just use it and be happy... and I am.<br />

Clearly I need to be whacked with the tardiness stick. My lack of interest of sitting at the computer for hours on end has resulted in an utter lack of posts. I have many images to post but since my new career change doesn't really have any bearing on photography anymore my urgency to post my strange images seems less important now. Its kind of hard to explain but I need to get back to my posting ways. All 3 of my followers are probably missing me.<br />
<br />
So as not to rush into 100's of boring posts with images I'll start light and hopefully gain momentum and post more in depth thoughts in the future..<br />

A clever technique of selective in focus and out of focus portions making the image seem like its of a little scale model of a city or scene. Ultimately as good as this option is on a camera, the scene is really the make or break to a successful fooling of the eyes. My initial attempts from my recent one night visit to Seattle have given me some better insight of how to approach future diorama shots and there will be more, I promise.<br />
My new <a href="http://www.olympus.co.uk/site/en/c/cameras/digital_cameras/tough/tg_850/index.html" target="_blank">Olympus TG-850</a> has this diorama mode as one of its "art filters". So I am basically shooting the scene and the camera is doing all the work for me. The key to a realistic fake City picture is having a high view point of a street view with people and cars, ideally not moving fast that they are blurred. No fake city model ever has fast moving static cars, got it??!!<br />
Here are some of my attempts.<br />

Just for fun I wondered through the city mall to see if that's viable too. One thing I lacked in both scene's was people. I managed to convince 3 'random' persons to wander through my mall scene though!!! <br />

Many times they are so incredibly hard to photograph and you really just can't capture on camera what your seeing. Also as a creative photographer how do you make this sunset be something that someone wants to look at. How many variations of a sunset can be done before its all been done??<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I just found some images from my camping this year and I remembered that I had attempted to change<span style="color: blue;"> <span style="color: black;">my normal view to something more creative or did i just something crap and should I delete it?</span></span></div>

<span style="color: blue;"> </span>I have shot through these trees a million times and I am sure I have dozens of images like this on previous posts. Can I do something more to make this some thing everyone will want to look at? What if I make it out of focus?</div>

At the time I thought this looked pretty cool. I have never done an out of focus sunset before. At least not this intentional! So I pushed it a little further...<br />

How abstract can one now start to get? Is it now a beautiful sunset on the lake or just some computer generated file from some paint program?? What now? Can I really show this? After all now it has no context. No obvious signs that its a beautiful moment in time by a lake with a camera..<br />
<br />
Did I create a design piece?<br />

I think both have great characteristics, I really see the "bokeh" come forward in the D200 image. Since the Nikon 1 lens doesn't have the 2.8 capability I think it makes it obvious which is which.<br />
Having said that the Nikon 1, 1" sensor, stacks up quite nicely against the older APS-C sensor.<br />
Both please me from a composition point of view and both have an equal opportunity to make it framed on the wall.DLThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03889756673708556324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21899967.post-23370858178835993642014-08-29T21:01:00.000-07:002014-08-30T19:59:16.707-07:00Lost Souls: dltphotoNot that I have any morbid pleasure of death but I have always had a bit of a thing for shooting in graveyards. Because I thought it odd I have never really published anything about it, or that I want to upset people incase I intrude on someone's afterlife beliefs.<br />
However I found a grave site that interested me. I didn't actually walk on to the site itself, I walked around the fenced area to respect the proprietors of the land.<br />
Anyways, this one had a really distinct selection of headstones ( mostly made from wood), some extremely simply wooden ones and some more elaborate. Creatively its interesting and I wonder if the higher quality headstones reflect wealth and stature? and the opposite for the weathered basic headstones?<br />

It's kind of like when you first get that fisheye lens you always wanted. You've dreamed of all the crazy things you're going to shoot with it, then after a few weeks you realise that damn it's cool but then the cool drug wears off. Your worst fear. They love has dried up and you have lost the ability to creatively use it or that you have just about "done" everything you think you can do with it. You retire it to the shelf, it gathers dust until your next creative fisheye dream.<br />
<br />
Well I mentioned about the Olympus Tough TG-850 I acquired, I have had the same "fisheye" experience.<br />
I suggested I wasn't going to use it for everything, but well, I lied. It's so addictive. Especially for sky images. It's adds mustard to your hotdog, it's the rum to your coke. It's the filter for your art.<br />

Sometimes its nice to step backwards, which is also why I used the Sigma DP1s (<a href="http://dltphoto.blogspot.ca/2011/12/seattle-images-part-2-digital-sigma.html" target="_blank"> the stigma</a>) since it's like stepping back in time because it's sooooooo slow.<br />

What did I win? Not a Nikon D810 or a Nikon 1 V3 or a Fuji X20, I won a Fabulous Olympus Tough TG-850. Wooooah. Oddly, the one thing I don't actually own already is a Shockproof/ Waterproof and Crushproof Camera. My girls have them but a lower end versions of Olympus and they're pink, they have been holding up quite well, so far.<br />
<br />
I figured I should take some pics of it now whilst it is still clean and tidy, I don't think its going to look like this for much longer, not that I am intentionally going to put it in harms way as I do prefer working camera's over dead ones. I fully expect it to have some mishaps in the line of fire, especially in the work environment I am now accustomed to.<br />
<br />
The best thing about these little cameras is that they are still
1,000,000,000 times better than a cell phone. I would much
rather have a camera on my person at all times than a cell phone and now
I can, come rain, saw dust, mud, ladders or lakes this thing is good to
go. I must remind myself if I do get it dirty I can just wash it off!<br />

First off this camera should probably be known as the 'Selfie' camera since its flip up screen is totally gearing up for nightclubbers, Its amazing 21mm Ultra Wide lens makes this a full on party camera. "Party On Wayne, Party on Garth".<br />

The first thing I did was turn it to the brilliant "art filter" option and there it was.... the 'Dramatic Tone' filter. My serious blog readers will of course remember a previous post when I used the <a href="http://dltphoto.blogspot.ca/2012/05/apac-photoclub-submissions-may-2012.html" target="_blank">Art filter</a> on one of Olympus's Micro 4/3 camera of which I scored an 10/10 at our local photoclub! Since I was only borrowing the camera from the rep I sadly had to let that filter go from my life, but now it's back and its tougher!<br />
I am not going to bore you with all the specs, they can be checked out here on <a href="http://www.getolympus.com/ca/en/digitalcameras/tough/tg-850.html" target="_blank">Olympus Canada</a>.<br />
<br />
Here's a few dramatic tone images to wet your whistle and don't worry I wont use it on this mode all the time, I promise.<br />

This year our "sunset view" side of Green Lake was disrupted due to the unfortunate Wildfires Burning around our province. Although the fires were many miles away, the smoke blew in our direction. It didn't actually ruin my photo enjoyment though, it just made things a little more challenging and interesting.<br />

I lost a really good friend this week. I feel a great sadness and its hard to write about. So I am just going to post a photo that HE absolutely disliked and suggested I never submit it to the photoclub that we were a part of. The conversation we had about it made me laugh and thats keeping me from being so sad.<br />

Switching career has made it a little more challenging for me to participate as much as I would have liked. I am looking forward to a summer of some shooting and try to get my act together for next years assigned topics. Although I just found out I have another class I can attend for my Electrical Level 2 in January so that might hamper my year again!<br />

This months adjudicator was a good friend of mine, Cristal from <a href="http://www.level6images.com/" target="_blank">Level 6 Images and Art</a> . Firstly I would like to applaud her for taking the time to inform everyone that she really isn't into overly edited images, such as HDR (high dynamic range) and other painterly effects. Marvelous. I am kind of tired of those. "it's been done" as far as I am concerned and I really like to see people challenge their skills in the camera rather than working an image for hours afterwards. Nothing more rewarding than getting it right, right out of the camera.. </div>

I chose 2 random images, one from my recent tulip festival visit and another from my "drive by shooting" from last year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Her biggest comment about the tulips was that she couldn't see a sharp point, there is one, its just the size of a pin head. That was kind of the idea. Normally macro's are sharp and much of the subject is visible and definable. This I chose to blur/soften the shit out of it as I was just far to lazy to have used a tripod and do the traditional macro shot. Its shot with the nikon 1 V1 and the nikkor 60mm 2.8 G Macro. I liked the effect without haven't to apply any effect... I am sure if it had have been sharp from front to back it wouldn't nearly have interested me, and definitely wouldn't get submitted. </div>

I told myself I would never go and do the same. Well, one of my ex work colleagues suggested we go along with Mr "Cameraman" <a href="http://wkoopmans.ca/notebook/?p=11840" target="_blank">Koopmans</a>. Firstly I was shocked by the hordes and I mean HORDES of tourists in Buses that were visiting this festival. Canadians were clearly in the minority at this event, as were REAL CAMERA'S. Wow, hardly anyone of the tourists had any real cameras. It's very disappointing. Cell phone and tablets, yes tablets, are very convenient, but they do not create what an actually camera can create. NO. Not ever. I'll admit I have been using my phone for things, but it's fun. I use my real camera's to create GREAT images.<br />
The camera manufacturers need to address this confusion that Cell Phones can replace the handy point and shoot camera. Nikon attempted the <a href="http://en.nikon.ca/Nikon-Products/Product/Compact-Digital-Cameras/COOLPIX-S800c.html" target="_blank">Coolpix S800C</a>, which is really an Android Cell Phone in a Camera. Perfect right? Combine the fun of a smart phone in the amazing ability of a Camera. Nice! Too bad Android only let them have an older version of that software which made the camera operate a little slower.<br />
<br />Anyways, Patience is the name of the game here if you want to snap a pic with the hordes of people in your shot, that and the Nikon 1 V1 with the 70-200 lens, for the ultimate in "isolation". Here are some of my images mildly edited images shot with the "sprightly" Nikon 1 V1. Check out some more <a href="http://wkoopmans.ca/notebook/?p=11917" target="_blank">images</a> from a different perspective<br />

Just something I slapped though the system quickly as the deadline caught me off-guard. I didn't even know who the Adjudicator was. Mr Razor Sharp, apparently. Fortunately my images happened to be "Razor Sharp". He is one of the more fussy adjudicators, actually almost annoying but brutally honest which we need sometimes. I only hope it doesn't put off some of our new club members who might take offense from it.<br />
As for the Images, if it's something he has 'seen' before it's likely to not do well. Don't submit a sunset pic, unless it's an amazing shot that no one has ever done before, as he has 'seen' them all. Don't submit a blue heron pic, as he has seen a million of them. So what do you submit for an adjudicator that's seen it all??? We live in a beautiful area of Canada but its also got it's limitations of what we can shoot that hasn't been done and is still spectacular. I think his expectations are rather unmanageable. Take a look at some of his <a href="http://eyesonphotographyg.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">images</a>. Have you seen them before? Actually a lot of his images I see quite regularly through through the club presentations. So are his spectacular? or more of the same?, as he did those images does that make them spectacular? My images aren't spectacular, but are they unique? Have you seen them before? <br />

There was a request on this one by my chum Gerry regarding cropping, I cropped it as shown but I also showed the Adjudicator the full image and also another different crop, and he suggested that all worked well.<br />
<br />
Here is the original, uncropped 'as shot' version, you can decide.<br />

I didn't have chance to submit an assigned topic image, which was "9 seconds". Maybe I'll do next months.

This Months adjudicator was not as was advertised. It was supposedly my friend Elizabeth Kowal of <a href="http://www.whitealbumweddings.com/" target="_blank">White Album Weddings</a> fame but instead it was Mark Kowal of <a href="http://www.whitealbumweddings.com/" target="_blank">White Album Weddings</a> fame. They own a gorgeous little <a href="http://www.chapelatwhitealbumweddings.com/" target="_blank">Chapel</a>, so picturesque for weddings and <a href="http://www.adorestudio.com/" target="_blank">portraiture</a>. Sweet. An Ex-President of the club also. He scored me 8's across the board!!!<br />

Nothing really exciting to say about these images for this month. I was deep in School Work and don't really recall if anything was said about them! They are probably featured in earlier posts, my 2 readers may have seen them before somewhere!!<br />

I picked a few images that I new he would have a hard time liking and he would enjoy telling me that they weren't technically in the correct category... Why would I do this? it's fun for me!<br />
<br />
Anyways, my plan kind of backfired. He didn't show up! So fortunately we had a visitor that evening, the President of the Langley Camera Club, <a href="http://www.langleycameraclub.com/club-gallery/dennis-ducklow/" target="_blank">Dennis Ducklow</a>. I have actually known Dennis for many years as he was a customer of ours at the Camera Store I used to work at and he is a really nice guy... anyways he graciously volunteered to fill in for the missing adjudicator. Now I was quite excited for my images to be viewed by him!<br />
<br />
Since I had a run-in with this adjudicator before about abstracts and the fact he doesn't believe my images were real abstracts I thought I should put another one in. Fortunately, Dennis quite enjoyed it. <br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Abstract. 'Abstract in White', Score 8</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
And 20 minutes into the exhibition night the expected adjudicator showed up! This was quite a treat. Dennis continued to score for the rest of the evening but both of them gave critiques at the end. Fantastic!<br />
<br />
Dennis enjoyed the images suggesting he had great lines and your eyes could easily go from front to back. My friend however piped up as to be expected suggesting it wasn't actually a true abstract as he could tell what it was..... Well. I took great delight in him saying they were "plates" and he sounded very confident about it too! Sadly, He was sooooo WRONG. Oooooh, such a large grin came over my face in the dark! I called out and suggested he was wrong and if he'd like another try, I don't think anyone knew what they were and I took great pleasure in informing him what they actually are. So now he's two for two at guessing my abstract images and getting it wrong. Brilliant. Anyways.. I won't tell you what they are.. I'll keep it a mystery for now. Wouldn't you say it's abstract if you can't determine what it actually is? <br />

Another image from this series I shot on a recent outing that i have yet to finish up with and post here. I was working with the lines and the shadows. I also rotated it just for added fun. I enjoyed that one of the lights is missing its cover. I like it when a uniform pattern is destroyed but one element. Kind of an OCD's nightmare I imagine.<br />
Dennis suggested he enjoyed the simplicity and the Lines, I don't recall if the other dude said anything about it and really I don't care.<br />

Last up was an assigned image i shot a little while ago with me phone and tried to give it some pizazz... I thought it was kind of industrial looking. I enjoyed the textures and lines. It's quite 'Me'.<br />

Looking forward to March's Adjudicator as she is another friend and fellow photographer!

January's was <a href="http://janetbright.ca/" target="_blank">Janet Bright</a>, a local Artist ( Painter), friend and photography student of mine. She has been several times to the club and on my first meeting with Janet I scored very high, the next nights not so much. Just when you think you know someone there tastes change. I think since Janet now has a little more appreciation for how hard it is to capture the images, since she is now learning photography herself, she has maybe changed the scoring process in her reactions to the images. She is "evolving", so to speak.<br />
<br />
First image up I got was bright, colourful, abstract. Perfect for her or so I thought.<br />

Not the worst score I have had and really it doesn't matter whatsoever, it just gives me some to ramble on about. This was shot with my Nikon 1 V1 with the FT-1 Adapter and the Nikkor 60mm 2.8G Macro, along with a Nikon SB-800 Flash slaved wirelessly from the V1 flash. All shot manually and really no adjustments made. Kind of made a neat abstract image. I shot plenty of them but this I thought was a decent composition. I choose Poorly (wink)<br />
<br />
Anyways, it didn't get reviewed at the club night but I asked Janet if she wouldn't mind critiquing it for me for this blog.<br />
HOW EXCITING.<br />
Here is Janet's view of the Blue"<br />
<br />
"<span data-measureme="1"><span class="null"><i>True Blue: Love the jars. My
first response was that, to sit and look at THAT blue for hours and
hours would be a wonderful thing. The balance of objects within the
image seems very formal (almost symmetrical), with the negative/void
space at centre taking visual space nearly equal to that of the jars
themselves. With its monochromatic colouring, centred highlights and
similarly sized objects/spaces, my attention is drawn directly to the
static centre of the image, which is symmetrical and does not lead to
a whole lot of excitement for the image. I do love the colour and
sharpness</i>"</span></span><br />
<br />
<span data-measureme="1"><span class="null">Second up was another Macro effort with the same camera setup, just no wireless flash trickery!! </span></span><br />

<span data-measureme="1"><span class="null">Not too much to describe about this one. It's a leaf. I just enjoyed the circles of confusion in the shot, hey I didn't say I was good at titling! Bold, colourful, simple. That was my goal.</span></span><br />
<span data-measureme="1"><span class="null"><br /></span></span>
<span data-measureme="1"><span class="null">Janet's comment:</span></span><br />
<br /><span data-measureme="1"><span class="null">"<i>Circles of Confusion": This
image is far more detailed and affecting on my computer than it was on
the big screen where it was originally shown. I see leaf detail and
delicate circles (which I didn't see before). Asymmetric balance makes
me wonder what's just outside the shot; was it raining, cold, misty? and
the magical circles (of confusion)- very intriguing. I suppose it is
true, that the medium is the message. Thank you for showing me this high
res version.</i></span></span><br />
<br />
<span data-measureme="1"><span class="null">Cool... So there you have it. In essence I think she liked them and that's enough for me. , they aren't grand masterpieces of Photography mind you, some something I thought was interesting. Other people's opinions of these images may vary massively. It's such a terribly subjective thing. Janet probably enjoys a good "Monet", I enjoy a "Giacometti", our tastes are our tastes, which is my point. Thanks Janet for your input. I'd love to go out shooting with you one day, "the painter and the photographer", that would be an interesting post!!</span></span><br />
