Mytubo App: Android Phone: dltphoto

So a friend and I have embarked on a voyage into the unknown... the new super world of Phone Photography. Mr Koopmans and I are swimming against the iPhone tide, with our Android phones and our Mytubo photo App, iPhone'rs are using the ever popular "insta'gram" app and this mytubo is our equivalent.
What is most appealing is the square format nature of the App which for me as a rectangle shooter for all these years is unique. The two of us have dedicated ourselves to use only our phones for this project... since others are clearly uploading images from their real cameras which is removing the instant creativity from the user with the phone and giving them a clear unfair advantage into image quality and compostion.
Its not really a social networking place, more a place where you can "like" images and leave comments, not nearly as involved personally as your common garden variety Facebook is.
Here are a random assortment of images I have used from my phone.. but if you want to see them all folks you'll have to get yourself an android and download the app and search me out!!!

Scott Kelby Photowalk 2011 (part 2): dltphoto

As promised here are a few of my nasty expired Fuji 800 ISO film shots done only with the Lensbaby 2.0 and the wonderful Nikon F5 shots in poor lighting....

 Someone muscled my camera from me...

 The grain on this 800 is pretty outrageous... maybe it was a little under exposed!!! Must get more practice with Lensbaby!!

Scott Kelby Photowalk 2011: dltphoto

This years Scott Kelby Photowalk as arranged by Mr Duane Bradley on a closed movie set location just inside Langley. Sweet location and a sweet turnout this year... here are a few of my pics, will just have to wait a little bit for the film shots....

Self Portraits....Its all about ME!: dltphoto

Recently I borrowed so new lighting equipment from Booth Photographic and figured out I would test it out on some willing Subjects.... but alas they tend to sleep when I am ready for picture time so I did some stunning pictures of the best looking guy in my house...and the only guy in this house!!!

Ah.... I'm Back! Sort of...

As I posted in one of my last posts I have been working on a Camera Blog for my Day Job at Lens & Shutter Camera's, I have also been promoted to the Store Manager which has not allowed me anytime to be thinking about poor DLT... anyways, its time to rectify that a little. I have just gathered up a bunch of images from this year for you guys to enjoy. I am working on new posts so please be patient!

MY NAME IS JOHNNY CANUCK

Camera Blog for Lens & Shutter: dltphoto

From now on I am going to be adding alot of Camera style content to a New Blog I have started for Lens & Shutter Cameras, reviews news etc will be posted as often as time permits!! Eventually it will be intergrated into the Lens & Shutter main site as well... but for the meantime I'll post content here!!!

Seattle Seahawks Trip, Canon Canada: Lens and Shutter

I had an amazing NFL trip courtesy of Canon Canada, through Lens and Shutter a while ago. Not only did I get to see my first American Football Game in the US, but I also got to play with there New ( at the time) Canon EOS 60D for the entire day! Sadly, I wasn't going to Watch the Redskins in Seattle, but I have now adopted Seattle as my secondary team as they are clearly the closer team to me!!!
Anyways here are some of the shots I got finally from that day. I messed around with it a bunch and I really liked it, I couldn't really find any fault with it. Nice feel, Fast, easy navigation... all around a pretty spectacular camera. A great Serious enthusiast camera and definitely a Camera someone wont necessarily out-grow! The only part I wasn't thrilled with was the fact they gave me the Canon EFS 18-135IS.... Not the best lens in there range for sure, my preference for anyone getting this camera would be with the Canon EFS 15-85 IS. fantastically sharp and nice build. A real decent lens you wont out-grow and hate the performance of!!!!
You can find all the specs on it on the Canon Canada Link posted above....

 

These two were both shot with different cameras.... one with the 60D and the other my Fuji F200EXR

This one also.. one shot with Fuji F200EXR and the other the Canon 60D....
Well hopefully this will entice some people into the 60D... like I said.. great performance and actually not a bad price....

Happy Christmas!

 Anyways... I assume we'll restart it after the busy Christmas period! so long kiddo's!

dltphoto: Triptych-Shadow, (as i see it, through her eyes)

This weeks word, chosen by me was "Shadow". Not much needed to be said. I happened to catch a huge wall on my drive to work completely caked in tree shadows... there was my shot!

Lisa's Post and Monica's Post

dltphoto: Triptych-Melody; (as i seeit, through her eyes)

Here is this weeks installment.... A very challenging word, Melody! How does one capture sound within a Photograph??? Hmmmm anyways, as always we had our Criptic brains on!!  Mine was a light set with a speaker on it.... very random!

I really nice looking set of images if I do say so myself.  Lisa's & Monica's.
Sorry I was late ladies....I'll try to pick it up for next week!!!

dltphoto: Triptych-Silent. (as i see it, through her eyes)

Ooooops, Guess who's image is the wrong way!!! guess I got the wrong memo, or at least I read the memo wrong!!! This weeks challenge was Silent!
 My shot is quite self explanatory!!! I am a little worries about Lisa's though!! she seems kinda messed up a little. Monica's is hauntingly quiet....She must live somewhere way out in the boonies for a park to be vacant!!

dltphoto: Triptych-Time (as i see it, through her eyes photography)

Here is this weeks installment. The week seems to go so quickly!!! Not sure if us old boys can keep up with the younguns pace!
 This weeks word was "time'.... but as to be expected we all made it criptic.... thinking of re-naming the project "Criptych" heheh.

Anyways....here are the girls posts... Lisa & Monica

dltphoto: Triptych-Thanksgiving (as i see it, through her eyes photography)

Ok... so after my extremely busy week I am finally posting my Thanksgiving Triptych.

Mine is of the underside of our extremely wet BBQ.... and why would i shoot that... well we went camping for this years Thanksgiving and did it ever rain for the first little while!!! anyways... thats my story!
See Lisa's post and Monica's Post . For this weeks I selected the word "Time".... if only I had more of it!!!!

dltphoto: Triptych- Autumn (as i see it, through her eyes photography)

Here is this weeks effort from the three of us. Title was Autumn.... some of us are having a good one and some of us (Lisa) starting it with a bad one!
For this weeks I used my little Fuji F200 EXR as its pretty smashing with its sweet dynamic range and wicked little macro, Perfect for autumnal shots!!! although the new Fuji F300 EXR looks pretty wicked too!
"My name is Duncan and I have a Camera Problem".
 A nice little collaboration again. It seems we are all getting into the swing of things!

Here are the ladies posts, Lisa( through her eyes photography) and Monica (as i see it).
Next weeks is "thanksgiving" which is tricky for an Englishman, as we dont celebrate that in good "ol blighty"!
