Pinhole Fame
Tuesday, April 29th, 2014
That pinhole picture I took Sunday and uploaded to the Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day site was chosen by the Nick Kirkpatrick of the Washington Post as one of the illustrations for a story he did on the WPPD. Here’s a link to the story. Needless to say, I’m quite pleased.
Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day
Sunday, April 27th, 2014
Today is Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day. There’s still time for you to go out and take a pinhole photo. You can then upload it to the WPPD site. I just uploaded mine. That’s it above. Once again, nothing great. I was traveling home from Chicago today, so I stopped and did this shot of windmills […]
Start Your Pinholes
Friday, April 25th, 2014
Today’s post is just a brief public service announcement. Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day is this Sunday, April 27. So dust off your pinholes and take a photo with one on Sunday and upload it to the WPPD site. I’m going to. I’ve been practicing with my Panasonic G5 and the wide-angle pinhole I have for […]
The Bags
Monday, April 14th, 2014
With the new system I, of course, needed a new bag to carry it around. The new stuff is small enough to fit easily into my old bags along with the Nikon stuff, but the point of all this was to come up with something easy to carry around so I could leave the Nikon […]
More Lenses
Friday, April 11th, 2014
Yes, there were some other lenses in that photo of the whole Micro 4/3 system that I have now. One I already had, a Pinwide wide angle pinhole “lens.” I’ve had it for a while and expect to use it to make a pinhole photo for Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day on Sunday, April 27. You should make […]
Lenses
Tuesday, April 8th, 2014
OK, I’ve talked about the Panasonic G5 camera, but it’s the lenses that make a system. And the lenses available for Micro 4/3 cameras are a major reason I decided to go this way for my travel system. There’s a ton of fun options out there from both Panasonic and Olympus. And a lot of […]
My Accidental Camera System
Sunday, April 6th, 2014
I don’t need a second camera system. My Nikon D7000 produces beautiful files and will use the many lenses I’ve accumulated from being a Nikon user since 1968. And I blame Mike Johnston at The Online Photographer blog for sending me down this path. He was the one who posted that the Panasonic G5 was […]
Love at the Darkroom Gallery
Monday, March 3rd, 2014
I was able to attend the artist’s reception for the Love exhibit at the Darkroom Gallery in Essex Junction, Vermont, yesterday afternoon. I love the Darkroom Gallery and often enter their juried shows. It happens that I didn’t enter this show, but I still wanted to go to the reception since I happened to be […]
