Another from my home safari:

Anyone that knows me  well will tell you I have more than a passing interest for cycling. It’s as much of a passion for me as photography. I’ve lost count of the hours I’ve spent in the saddle in all weathers and in all seasons. There is just something magic about it . Rather like photography in many ways.

Any of you have other passions/interests?

SoHo, New York City

For those not familiar with New York City, “SoHo” stands for “south of Houston Street” (pronounced “houseton).” It’s a trendy area in lower Manhattan, sporting pricey boutiques and charming atmosphere, including streets paved with “Belgian blocks.” And, this day, it was alive with long shadows of late afternoon.

Fuji X-T1 and XF 10-24mm R OIS Lens – Time Exposure – 20 Seconds @ f/20
Lee Big Stopper ND Filter – 11.5mm Focal Length

By installing a circular polarizer on the lens before mounting the Lee Seven5 filter system I was able to eliminate the glare on the water so the shadows from the rocks were visible.

Screwed

I got screwed by time this week and I couldn’t work on these B&W as I thought I could. Hope that you’ll like it.

I got to tell you something… I broke my Tamron lens.. Now I have to use my old Canon, the one that came with the camera when I bought it. The quality is clearly lower than the Tamron. Can’t reach F2.8 at 50mm anymore… So bye bye Bokeh.

Also, I started to upload some of my favorite catches on Instagram, if any of you want to see them, it’s here.

Have a good week!

Once again, I am turning the world on its side and re-imagining the textures of cedar tree bark discovered while walking in Minnesota’s Jay Cooke State Park.  By turning the image on its side, I’ve created the possibly of other interpretations of the original image.
