Photograph and Camera talk

The sun was barely visible behind the formation,but there nonetheless. The picture didn’t need sharpening as it was pretty in focus. I’m not really sure what caused the Halo effect,but it’s contributed to the image’s popularity.

Don’t shoot much during the Winter. Spend a lot of time revisiting old files. Mostly deleting pictures,but sometimes you find a fun one. Walking the Dog,reflected in the chrome bumper of a 55 Chevy Belair.

Use of selective color in this picture of the grill of an old Mercury.

That’s cool @Jett129 . I’ve generally been lazy about exploring post-processing possibilities but seeing successful outcomes may prod me into trying them. Well done

[Jett129]

Thank you,it comes from the fact that in the days before color film,people would hand colorize  select parts of the B&W images. Now through the wonders of Photoshop it’s much easier. If you search on #selectivecolor on Instagram there are some really,really cool shots. I also think that once you do this it elevates the image a little closer to being “Art”,which is something I struggle with.

[Jett129]

Another example of Selective Color.

Been experimenting with Lensball Photography. @Giles you would love this place. 

[Giles]

I am sure that I would

I was messing with the night mode on my phone at dusk and I think these are interesting.

@Jett129 Very Nice!!

[LewisStonehouse]

Here's a few recent ones I've snapped. All on the Fujifilm X100V, so fixed 35mm focal length essentially

Beauts….

Gorgeous pictures!

Anyone uses add-on lenses on their cell phones? I just got a macro lens from Moment to add to my iPhone. I haven't had time to try it yet.

[LewisStonehouse]

Cheers @Giles @JDelage

The fixed focal length makes life interesting, but I've found I'm so much more likely to chuck the camera in the bag compared to a whole pile of kit. Pretty amazing what it can do, turns out they're not just good for street photography

[LewisStonehouse]

Also, few snaps from my 30th trip to Cornwall week before last

[goosehd]

@LewisStonehouse The colour's are magnificent!  Are you doing any post editing or is that the raw captured image?

[LewisStonehouse]

@goosehd few light touches in Lightroom but no major editing. That being said I'm using the X100V's in-built film similations and exporting a jpeg: Velvia where they're super vibrant, Classic Chrome on the more muted ones and Acros for b&w. To be fair, the colours were amazing in real life too, Cornwall really is stunning.
