PESO: TownshipShed

[Jack Davis]

 

Can't really explain it, but I find myself pulling up this impulsive shot 
occasionally for another fix. Have driven past it a number of times and even 
shot it a year or so ago..
The original file carries quite a bit of detail and that has to be it's main 
attraction  I, also, find the geometry sort of interesting.
"Whatever."

Comments?

It is an interesting image.  That is a fine blue sky, and it is set
off well against the dull color of the shed.  The shed has a lot of
detail and texture, and the incongruousness of the green panel and
unruly shrub catch and hold the eye.

Thanks, Frank, Ken and Ann.

I previously struggled with whether to cropp out the other people.
When I did, the image did not appeal as much to me.  I think the
context helps the scene.  YMMV

Re: PESO: Take Daddy's Hand

[Daniel J. Matyola]

Thanks, Jack.  This scene reminds me of the first time I took my son
to the Jersey Shore.  He was very young and my wife was afraid that
the sight and would of the surf would frighten him.  While my wife
held the (very large) video camera, a took him by the hand, and
assured him that he would be safe with me.  As soon as he saw a wave
crashing toward the shore, he let out a loud scream of joy, pulled his
hand out of mine, and ran into the water.  It was lucky his legs were
still short, so I could catch up to him before he made it very far in.
 As soon as he became old enough, he insisted on taking scuba lessons.

Maui is an ideal place to introduce small children to the ocean,
because the water temperature is about the same as the air
temperature, and because there are many coves where the waves are mild
enough for youngster to enjoy.

Re: An Irish Pub at Noon

[Bob Sullivan]

Bob W,
When your last name is Sullivan, you can't escape St. Paddy's Day.
One year, I was in the Doctor's office getting a blood test.
Two lab tech's worked drawing blood in the tiny lab, a salt and pepper
colored team.
We danced around each other to get seated as none of us were petite.
My tech was the older white woman who saw my name and announced she was Irish.
With a twinkle in my eye, I told her we had a new friend in political office.
I reminded her of the movie stars Maureen O'Hara, and Danny O'Day,
and then pointed out the Irishman - Barach O'Bama.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught the Black tech trying not to
laugh out loud.
Regards,  Bob S.

Re: PESO: Take Daddy's Hand

[Jack Davis]

Nice story. Here in northern CA the water is about 55 F year round. In the 
summer you have the choice of blistered feet from the sand or convulsive 
shivers from the water. I wonder how many years those body shocking experiences 
will take off my life. ;-))

Re: TownshipShed

[Don Guthrie]

You know Jack I have several shots like this in my collections so I like 
the genre. I find that converting to B&W makes them little more 
universal & less location specific. Also They show better as part of a 
series. So shoot more not less.

Can't really explain it, but I find myself pulling?up?this impulsive shot 
occasionally for another fix. Have driven past it a number of times and even 
shot it a year or so ago..
The original file carries quite a bit of detail and that has to be?it's main 
attraction? I, also,?find the geometry?sort of interesting.
"Whatever."

Comments?

Re: PESO: Take Daddy's Hand

[John Sessoms]

The thing that does bother me is it looks like some of the people on the 
far shore have their heads chopped off. They need just a tiny bit of 
head-room.


From: "Daniel J. Matyola"

Thanks, Frank, Ken and Ann.

I previously struggled with whether to cropp out the other people.
When I did, the image did not appeal as much to me.  I think the
context helps the scene.  YMMV

I'm thinking that without showing the distant shore line the need
for caution is less obvious - I'd have liked more above their heads
and in the distance.

The one that looks like you're carrying an LX would be OK if it didn't

You know Jack I have several shots like this in my collections so I like 
the genre. I find that converting to B&W makes them little more 
universal & less location specific. Also They show better as part of a 
series. So shoot more not less.

Re: PESO: TownshipShed

Jack, a worthy subject; I see why you return to it. Appealing geometry
and textures, no question.

My very personal observation is that it looks too bright, seems to
have excessive glare, and I'm mentally reaching for my sunglasses. I
would try darkening it and increasing the saturation a touch, or
reshooting it earlier and/or later in the day. Maybe give it more
space in the frame while I was at it.

Re: New rumors....5 dslrs, aps-c compact....

[Alexandru-Cristian Sarbu]

I don't care much about what "rumors" say (by the way, the 5 DSLRs in
a month is obviously fake). Photorumors are still clinging to the
Pentaxforum's 1st April K-3 joke, they will post garbage without a
second thought.
>From the few interviews with Pentax officials I'd say the FF is most
likely coming, but not in the next months. Apparently it's in
development, but - when the last interview was held - it still needed
the OK from the financial dept.

Thanks for comments, Bruce. It's possible my screen's too dark.(?)
I feel that, again, on my screen, I struck a contrast/saturation balance that 
feels comfortable.
For my odd taste, this ratio of sky to barn and foreground is satisfying.

Re: PAW167 - Men

[Zos Xavius]

You should get closer on the dead birds. Make it more visceral. I've taken some 
gruesome dead animal pictures, but I'm too afraid to share them for fear of it 
polarizing people. Maybe I will put them all in a series one day. There's 
something that makes me kind of queasy looking at pictures of rotting corpses. 
The dead body doesn't bother me, but the decay is really unsettling to me. I'd 
much rather shoot decaying buildings honestly. Its probably a normal reaction.

So I never caught on what the PAW and PESO acronyms stood for. Can someone 
enlighten me? I have a couple of replies I haven't gotten around to writing and 
keep forgetting so please don't think that I'm just ignoring any of you. I'm 
going to move this list to a folder so I don't miss as much and can find 
messages I wanted to respond on. To the person that said they followed me on 
flicker (can't remember who that was exactly) I wanted to thank you. I have a 
couple dozen gigs of pics to sort through tonight. I'll share a couple of 
favorites. :-)

Spring 2013 | Roman Melihhov Photography

[Roman Melihhov]

http://roman.blakout.net/index.php?/category/84

I'd used K-5 DA 17-70mm with closeup loupes 2× + 10× combined. Side
effect of this lens structure is that they only have sharp center of the
image and focus is blurring out to the edges. This makes however pinhole
effect. These are my first blossoms of the spring 2013.

Re: PAW167 - Men

[DagT]

Yes, I think it is. There are several reasons why I show these pictures. One is 
simply to tease some people who are obsessed with bird pictures, but another is 
the contrast between "free as a bird" and the harsh reality. One reason why I 
don´t want to get too close is that I try to get some beauty there.

As for decay you should take a look at the pictures of a friend mine, Øyvind 
Antonsen, he both studies the cruel sides of nature and also the abandoned 
homes in his part of Norway:

Har! There's an error in the definition of Har!

Har! is a signifier whose signified is a constructed reality. Nietzsche, in
his book The Will To Power, said that he had an aversion to 'one total view
of the world', and the PDML feels much the same about the meaning of Har!
which, like notions such as equality, democracy and the rule of law has no
universally accepted definition. To reflect Nietzsche again, it has
'countless meanings'. It is perspectival. We all need Har! of one sort or
another, but which Har! is valid? It expresses incredulity towards
meta-narratives and the obsolescent apparatus of legitimation, corresponding
to the crisis in metaphysical philosophy, and invokes stylistic eclecticism
as a pastiche of the dominating metaphor. The narrative function has lost
its functors.

I hope that makes it clear.

Bobrillar!

Re: MX-1 promo video

[Mark C]

I'm actually pretty impressed by the commercial. Aside from the fact 
that I would be wearing sweat pants and a the  "She's with stupid" T 
shirt my wife got me for my birthday, I can relate to the dude in the 
video.


But seriously - the brassing thing is totally contrived and Pentax 
trivializes themselves by emphasizing that. Yeah, my 6x7 and LX have 
brassing but they are over 30 and 20 years old respectively. It is silly 
to contemplate using a digital camera that old, but maybe hipsters in 
2043 will be doing lomography with K-5's and M-X's 2-d flat field 
photos will be all the retro craze.


But - it is an appealing camera if you are looking for a point and shoot 
that is pocketable. But with a coat like that, the guy in the commercial 
could have easily carried a Q10 and a couple of lenses.

Re: MX-1 promo video

But the q10 doesn't have brassing! Its funny that people have such issue with 
it. All the reviews I've seen so far, most reviewers went out of their way to 
praise the design and all commented on how they liked the brass. Sure its a 
little silly, but would you rather the camera looked like the xz-2? I must say, 
the sample pictures I've seen have been very sharp and approaching m43 quality 
at base iso.

Re: MX-1 promo video

[Paul Stenquist]

But it's so pretentious, so precious. Pentax's agency  obviously worked hard to 
find a guy with a just-so effete accent. And his fawning over the camera 
strikes me as ridiculously over the top.  Can you tell I don't like it:-). The 
camera, on the other hand, may well be fine. I have no idea.

PESO - Cadillac Man

[knarftheria...@gmail.com]

First "streetie" (as Derby calls 'em) since the accident. And the only one from 
yesterday. So hard to react and shoot when you one can't walk with camera in 
hand. Gotta stop, grab camera, lift to eye, compose, shoot. Takes too long.

But I got this one!

 http://knarfinthecity.blogspot.ca/2013/03/cadillac-man.html?m=1

Outside the venerable Cadillac Lounge in Toronto's Parkdale neighbourhood.

Hope you enjoy. Comments welcome.

Cheers,
frank

Re: PESO: Haleakala'a

[Alan C]

You prompted me to do a bit of Hawaiian research. My mental image of Hawaii 
is beaches & big waves! I had no idea the volcanoes were so high - Haleakala 
is over 5 miles above the seabed. It is interesting that so little rain 
falls at those high altitudes - the peaks must mostly be above the clouds. 
The scene you photographed could easily be a moonscape. Then there is the 
amazing Silversword you mentioned which had to be saved from extinction.

I never thought of it that way, but it is certainly arid and almost
completely devoid of life.  There are tiny insects and some plants,
including the fabled Silversword, that live up here at 10,000 feet
above the Pacific.

Thanks for looking, Alan.

I posted a color version last year.  While printing up a copy as a gift, 
I realized this was the HMS Bounty, sunk during Hurricane Sandy, with 
the loss of the Captain and a member of the crew...

Thanks, Alan.  One of the things I love about Hawai'i is the diversity
of climates and geological formations.

The Silverswords are Maui icons.  None were blooming while I was there
this February, but I did capture a few immature plants:

I like the complex pattern of the masts and lines, and the wispy clouds beyond.

Anyone here use the 16-45?
How would you evaluate the results you get?


it is very good for the price; it was by far my most-used lens for a couple of 
years, and i've taken it on several trips; i've done a lot of plant photography 
and the 1:4 "macro" is a plus - gets you in pretty close


but i pretty much retired it when i got a real macro lens and started to cover 
the 16-45 range with primes, starting at 50mm; except for certain wider shots, 
i mostly shot the long end, so the comparison to my A 50/1.7 is stark: the 50mm 
prime is much cheaper, much faster, much lighter & smaller, much nicer to 
focus, significantly sharper (esp. corners) and a bit more contrasty; the only 
pluses for the 16-45 are flexibility and closer focus (well, autofocus too); i 
used to get "you've got a big lens" comments with the 16-45; do not get those 
any more
