Ehpem replied to the topic Wide Angle Lenses & Adapters in the forum General Photo Chit Chat 10y, 2mo ago
I thought this thread would be about something else, but it raises an idea you might want to explore: adapting old wide angle glass for your camera.
For instance I have a 40 year old Nikkor-N Auto 24mm/f2.8 lens that I use on my Canon 5Dii. It is a great lens though not nearly as wide as you seem interested in. It was relatively cheap, and…[Read more]

Ehpem replied to the topic Who has done a 'Series'? in the forum General Photo Chit Chat 10y, 2mo ago
I am in the middle of a series that started with getting a small half-frame Olympus Pen in a junk store (does anyone else around here use half frame cameras – searches turn up nothing).
The half-frame images (two images per usual 35mm negative size) naturally suggest that combining adjacent images to make in-camera diptychs and panoramas could…[Read more]

Ehpem replied to the topic Shark Tank (really, that is what this is) in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 10y, 7mo ago
@fidlito @admin I see that the way the image displays here that it is further cropped. If you click on it you will find the full image, as newly cropped. And, I should have said that I think these cropping suggestions worked out well.
If someone wants to add a shark and throw a revised version back into this ‘shark tank’ thread, then feel…[Read more]

Ehpem replied to the topic Shark Tank (really, that is what this is) in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 10y, 7mo ago
@fidelito – thanks for the suggestions. I have tried all of them. The only fail was getting a shark in the tank – I tried a circling dorsal fin along the edge of the tank just with a bit of dodging (my most sophisticated editing tool is LR4, so options are limited), but it was not convincing. I think your suggested crops were useful. I could not…[Read more]

Ehpem replied to the topic Shark Tank (really, that is what this is) in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 10y, 7mo ago
@admin Thanks for the comment. This is perhaps where the nostalgia over rides the good photography. For me the view out and in are equally important in my memories – the setting of working in a place like this with a view like that. But, I think you are right.
@fidelto has cropping suggestions that might satisfy your comment to some degree, I am…[Read more] -

I don’t know why that did not load larger – my first upload to Lightstalking. A larger version can be seen here: http://burntembers.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/img_4136-edit.jpg?w=1308&h=872

Lab Tank by Ehpem on Light Stalking
24mm/f2.8 lens, ISO800, ~f5.6 (adapted vintage lens does not record aperture to EXIF), 1/250th.
This tank at a marine research station often holds the local shark (‘dogfish’), so I thought it a perfect submission for this forum.
This was taken during a nostalgic visit to labs with my dad who, after more…[Read more] -

Ehpem replied to the topic Chinatown #2 in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 10y, 7mo ago
I don’t find the grain a problem unless viewed at 100%, which there is no need to do. At full screen, it works well, like an older black and white negative. I think I would try pulling the white wall brightness down a bit, but I am not sure it needs – I would want to see before and after. I like the way it balances the blackness of the door to the…[Read more]

Ehpem replied to the topic Found my Love in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 10y, 7mo ago
I agree with the technical aspects above. The problem for me, and this is less about the photo than it is about one viewer, is that the sentiment of the photograph does nothing for me. There is nothing you can do about that with this shot, at least not that I can think of.
On the more constructive side, if I think of the shot without you on…[Read more]

Ehpem replied to the topic The Passage in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 10y, 7mo ago
I think f8 on 17mm lens would be more than enough depth of field if you focus on the right place. That would have given you 1/30th which should be enough for that lens. I see a bit of a greenish caste, which might be my monitor I suppose, but is a bit distracting. I think this photo needs a dog on a mission somewhere else, but I would probably…[Read more]
