Amazing what you can take on an iPhone these days.
Martha’s Vineyard Oreo Cows at Sunset
Starting to go back through my old photos and pull out favorites that make me happy, it’s been far too long that the 110,000 photos on my computer are locked away. This one was a five-photo stitch taken in 2004 with an Olympus E-1 and the 11-22 2/8-3.5 lens at 11mm. 1/250 @ f/8.0 . Stitching was done with PTGui in Photoshop CS for Windows.

Bloomfield COVID cafe
Was driving in Bloomfield a couple of weeks ago and this diner with its improvised outdoor dining in the time of COVID stuck me as as a sign of these crazy times. When I first drove by that stupid stuck wasn’t there but I couldn’t move it.

Ginkgo Leaves – 1
The glorious two Ginkgo trees in my NJ yard dropped their leaves recently, all within 1 day and right after the first hard freeze. They are the most wonderful yellow leaves. The only downside of my two trees, which were planted sometime in the 70’s, that they are both females and therefore drop smelly, smelly fruits. And this year, we had a wet Spring, so the trees produced a bumper crop….thousands and thousands of them. They’ve been falling for a record two months. But the leaves are wonderful.

Kodak Retina IIIc vs. IIa – Newly serviced
Just got my new IIa 016 back from Chris Sherlock today. Boy, he does good work. My only other Retina is a IIIc 021 (non-working meter) so now I have a comparison of two cameras that were a few years apart. 1. Size / Weight difference – It’s significant when you pick up the cameras. That increased top holding the meter makes the IIIc camera feel a lot bigger. In addition, the front of the IIa is flat, whereas the IIIc is curved, which makes the IIa easier to hold and it feels narrower. The overall impression is very different

NYC Street Scene 2003
Something dug out from the archives. NYC somewhere: Fall 2003. Shot on Delta 400. Probably with a collapsible Summicron on a Leica, but I can’t remember if that’s right or not. Scan via Epson 850i

The Snake River
Flew over eastern Washington state a few weeks ago early in the morning and took this nice shot of the Snake River with my iPhone X. Nothing special, but having the phone is a lifesaver and increasingly negates the benefits of carrying a camera…..which is both saddening and freeing.

Infrared in Central Park
Went to Marathon sunday in New York City’s Central Park and took an Olympus EPL-6 with a Lifepixel Super-Color Infrared conversion filter and the great Olympus 12mm/2.0 lens. Captured some great photos. They required minimal Photoshop manipulation: Swapping the Red and Blue channels with some tweaks in curves to boost the contrast and a litte sharpening with a High Pass layer.

Pink in Redmond
Happened upon this Pink flower with my iPhoneX walking around. Amazing what you can do with such a small device these days. In downtown Redmond Washington.
