Snow Storm

A small personal project video. I mixed some still photography in it. Also looped the windshield wiper sound that somewhat syncs to the video and still. I though that rhythmic pounding of the drum from the song went well with the motion.

Used Panasonic GF-1 with a 20mm 1.7 Pancake lens. All shot handheld.

Enjoy!

Boston: B&W Architecture with Leica Q2M: From a Purist Perspective.

I swear I was going to switch out my black and white ONLY Leica Q2M to a regular Q2 color camera before going to this trip.  I"m glad I didn't.   Oh, before I forget, take a look at my icandy slide shows .  I will be making slideshows that is designed for big screen TV's.  Take a look at this one: Ok, back to the topic on hand.  So one of the most asked question about the Leica Q2M is, 'why limit yourself to just black and white when you can easily convert color photos to BW?'  Very good question.  My answer is,  if you know with certainty you want the best quality BW image possible, you want the dedicated monochrome camera.  Am I being a staunch purist? or is there a practical argument for it? Let's talk about it.  Beacon Street Boston,  MA One of many beautiful architecture on that hill.   First, this camera doesn't have any moire filter on the sensor.  Moire filters are on most color camera sensors to get rid ...

Polaroid Negative?

I've been wanting to do color large format for awhile. When there were photo labs around the corner, it wasn't hard to do a E-6 process in a day or two. Now that process has gotten expensive and if you're doing sheet film, its even more pain. So my solution... Polaroid! well technically, it should be called "instant film" since Polaroid is trademarked term. I'm using  Fuji FP 100c45. But here's the twist. I wanted a different look. If I want true colors, I wouldn't bother with the cost of 2 bucks per shot.  I also was fascinated with some surface texture that I saw on polaroids.  I recently came across some sites that talks about turning a polaroid into negatives. Its true that Polariod years ago did have those positive/negative film, but they've discontinued all instant film a couple of years ago.   The process is simple. you take bleach and take off the black stuff on the part that you throw away.  Once the black part is off, you have a negati...

Air Show with Leica Q2M

 Never been to an air show... What's taken me so long?  It was pretty cool.  I've seen these aerial maneuvers on TV or YouTube, but seeing it live makes all the difference.  It was the Leesburg Airshow  held annually.  This one was on October 1st.  They're doing some crazy stuff up there!  They've provided a shuttle service from a nearby pick up area and the admission was free.  Can't complain about that.  I've always enjoyed aviation and the level of precision needed to fly these airplanes safely.  I've seen all the episodes of Air Disasters on the Smithsonian channel, so yeah I know all about aviation...  Restored vintage DC-3.  The "Yukon Sourdough" Here is an article about it . For this outing, I used my Leica Q2M camera .  I love the simplicity of this camera.  It was how photography used to be: shutter speed, aperture, and iso.  Those three things are the trinity of photography.  If you know how ...
