What? Again?

Feb 25

Posted by admin in One Photo Per Day | No Comments

Wide angle boat You think you have seen this before? It is a photo I took today with my kit lens, since I wanted to recreate the wide angle look I have seen in some photos. I don’t get the fisheye look I had hoped for, but I learned a lot about wide angle and how it affects distances. If you compare it with the photo I took a while ago (right side) A boat in the winter . The boat in the foreground is almost the same size, I am somewhat closer to it on the left, but sort of same size. If you look at the boat out in the water though, there is a significant difference. The wider zoom makes it much smaller.

I think I like the wide angle shot (left) better of the two. The boat is sharper in it as well, but I think that has to do with my focus point, since I do believe that my prime lens in general is much sharper and better image quality compared to the kit lens.

DSC03538 Usually I see flowers in colours, so I wondered if you could make one in B&W, so here is the attempt. It is from yesterday, since I forgot to upload one :/

Upgrading the rig

Feb 12

Posted by admin in One Photo Per Day | No Comments

I just got some new hardware for Rasmus’s computer, so I decided that was a meaningfulDSC03527 topic for today. I didn’t have too much time to take photos, since the hardware was needed elsewhere.

It was a real pro card as you can see from the focus.

Happy weekend

An empty street

Feb 9

Posted by admin in One Photo Per Day | No Comments

Empty street Todays photo is from down town Skærbæk at around 6 o’clock in the evening. At that time there are no people, cars or living creatures, and even the colours has disappeared :)

An empty street, not exactly something you can use a long time looking at, but gives a bit of mysterious look . The play of light, and the way the street lights light up the road to create a diagonal light kind of works for me.

You could argue that a lone figure walking down the road would be good, and I agree except for the fact that it would be a blur with the shutter speed I had to use.

Power plant in the dark I know I promised you (or mostly my self)  a black and white week, and I did post a black and white image today. But I just have to show you this image I also took tonight. I absolutely love the colour of the sky.

It is taken with a 30 second shutter time, which shows a deep blue colour even if it looked black to me.

It’s a sign!

Feb 8

Posted by admin in One Photo Per Day | No Comments

It's a sign I have decided to make this week all black and white, scratch that – we call it duo tone week.  I have wanted to play around with black and white images for a while, or duo tone if you like. So why not force my self to do that. All images this week will be in black and white,  so I might get the hang of it.

With black and white I believe I can work more with shapes, lines and textures, since one dimension has been removed, and therefore doesn’t distract. That makes some things easier, and some things harder. Here is my first attempt at a snow covered landscape with a sign.
