The blossoms are coming off the trees now, especially with a bit of encouragement.
My granddaughter, of course, loves it.
Another couple from this series, and others from this camera are published simultaneously here on the 52Rolls.net project.
I often photograph the Ross Bay storm drain, and frequently when testing film cameras.
This time I was putting an Olympus mjuII (aka Stylus Epic) through the paces, including at the ocean edge.
For some reason I decided to take some detail shots, something I have not done for a couple of years.
Maybe it was something to do with the camera – the small feel of it perhaps. (more…)
I have been testing out another point and shoot, this time the Olympus mjuII (aka Stylus Epic).
It is a bit of a cult camera in the point and shoot world which I have had my eye open for.
A couple of months ago I found this one in a thrift store, in its original box with manual for $10, pretty much brand new.
I promptly lent it to my son to take on his band’s road trip and have only recently managed to get it back.
I think this guy was surfing the internet. Maybe he discovered a free wireless connection
He had the air of a tourist, and sat here for a long time.
If you look closely you can see him in another picture from the same day (here) taken from nearly a block away.
Some views around the streets of Victoria from last summer when trying out an Olympus OM-D.
This path leads from the road, through someone’s garden and down to Gonzales Beach.
I think it is a private path, but it sure is enticing. especially when like this, during last summer.
The greens are lovely, but for me the black and white conversion and crop is better.
This view is in my neighourhood taken looking across the Chinese Cemetery in the direction of Port Townsend in Washington State.
Each of those little green rectangles in the dried grass is a grave where the moisture is retained a bit better and the grass is slower to dry out in the summer.
