Fujifilm XE1 with Jupiter 8
 
Long Meg and her Daughters is a circle of 59 standing stones in Cumbria. 'Long Meg' is sandstone (unlike the other stones) and is by far the tallest.

I've finally taken the plunge: replacing my old D200 with a D610, plus Nikkor 24-70mm f2.8 and Sigma 70-210mm f2.8. First impressions: I'm loving the extra detail and quality, but there's a big difference in weight...

Nice light as always Doylem. Congrats on the upgrade! The dynamic range the new Sony sensors are capable of is just incredible - from a RAW exposure there is so much latitude for shadow recovery when shooting high range scenes.
I do know you like to avoid HDR and let the light work it's magic but you may find in some scenarios you no longer need to bracket :)

Thanks. The new camera is great, but slightly intimidating! I'm learning the characteristics of my new lenses. It may take a while to be comfortable with the new gear...

Looks like you're managing just fine with the new lenses :)

PS: I take it the old lenses don't fit the new camera?
 
Last one from the theatre district in town. These three images I posted over the last few days were part of an exercise I undertake whenever I go out with the camera. I have to take three images (and only three, not a hundred, then choose the best) of the same thing and some how tie them together, all within about 50 metres of each other. With these, I focused on the form of the theatre buildings and reflections. It's a great exercise for me to develop my ability to see.

Great idea and great result(s).

I find the less I shoot the better I shoot!

On my end I've been enjoying shooting with my iPhone.


What a chirpy airport.

This lady was looking very stressed out as she and her fellow travellers were on the wrong platform and she was trying to get their attention to tell them. Don't know why she didn't just walk down the platform to get them rather than stand waiting to attract their attention for five minutes from afar.

Yeah but her expression screams "oh come on! not another perv with a camera!"

:) Nice capture. You like Baker Street station don't you? work or live nearby maybe?

Really like the look of this picture the rendering is fantastic. How do you recreate that look?

Especially like the depth of the picture.

Lol. I was naked when I took the photo

I work quite often in Marylebone so have to go through Baker Street station and it's quite photogenic. Plus I usually have to wait for a few minutes for a train so I get the opportunity to people watch.

naked! thanks mate, there's an image I could have done without...! :)

I like the archways in Baker Street in the brickwork. Are they to let natural light in from street level? cant remember. It is very ornate I agree.

I tend to go in and out of Bank DLR (I head to the smoke from Glasgow quite often) Bank DLR is very sterile. No Victorian awesomeness there.

Really like your captures. They are great images of real life. Keep em coming but keep the threads on though yeah? :)
 
This bumblebee took off and turned his back on me as I was lining up so a bit hurried with the shot

Cheers :)

No natural light down there unfortunately. They have big old artificial lights in them. It adds a really nice atmosphere to the platform though.

I make no promises that my work will continue clothed :)

That is a very clever exercise. Might have to start doing that myself.
In the meantime, I have been on a 365 quest. Trying to challenge myself to try new things, shoot something different every day, and so on. We'll see how long it lasts...
