Dragon Boat Racing Photography with Bad Lenses

Photographing the Dragon Boat races at the Islands this past Saturday morning. I do not have a modern long telephoto lens, and was forced to use an old 200mm Pentax lens, and an old craptastic Spiratone 500mm f/8 mirror telephoto lens. Both manually focused.

My focus hit rate was not good, lol.

Surrounded by Books

Today I checked out the largest secondhand bookstore I have ever been in, in Amherst, Nova Scotia. One image cannot capture the size. It was huge but felt cramped at the same time!

Amherst, Nova Scotia, Imagined Differerently

I am on a trip in Nova Scotia, and yestreday was a very sunny afternoon in Amherst. Not a lot of people out and about (compared to what I am used to) and I ended up creating a surreal look. The colours in this image were inspired by Lomo Turquoise film.

ICM Storefront

I have being trying some more ICM (Intentional Camera Movement) recently, and two evenings ago in the Beaches here in Toronto I passed by a Queen Street storefront for a store that makes awards, plaques, trophies, that kind of thing. It was getting dark so I tried some ICM and I like what I got.

The first image is a side to side movement, and the second is an up and down movement.

Both images were taken with my Sony a6100 and TTArtisan 27mm f/2.8 lens.

Glen Stewart Ravine

A lovely morning in Toronto today (compared to the dismal day we had yesterday), so perfect for an outing to the Glen Stewart Ravine. I used my Sony a6100 body and TTArtisan 35mm f/1.4 lens for these images.

Technology close up

I am finding many of my macro/close-up images these days have themes of metal and technology. There are a couple I created yesterday at a table top macro meetup at the Only Cafe. Both taken with my Sony a6100 and TTArtisan 40mm f/2.8 macro lens.
