This was shot in Idaho at RedFish Lake - on the F100 with Fuji Acros. No Crop.

the Lola.
Sitting on the couch - the dog Lola jumped up to view the scene outside the window. There was nothing there to see - and her head was about 12" from mine. I grabbed the iPhone 7 and opened KitCam and took this. I got as close as I could to keep the scene as shown.

Leica M6
Last August a friend let me borrow his Leica M6 - it was wonderful.
Nex-7 and Nikon PC-e
A while back - after I purchased the Nex, I was geeked to get my Nikon lenses, adapted, on this body. All went really well - until I tried to mount the 24mm PC-e Tilt Shift - and I was rudely awakened to the limitations. I'm very glad I didn't really need this for a shoot, or bring it too a shoot - or I would have fallen flat on my face.
The PC-e's aperture control is electronically controlled - and that's the rub. In order to set it - one needs to pre-set the aperture on a compatible Nikon and then bring that lens, over to the Nex mount.
It's a bit of a pain - but at least it is a work around -- in this video I describe the technique, where when I first tried to figure it out, I didn't have the desired results.
x-equals
Brandon Oelling and Michael Gray at x-equals.com/blog are at it again.
A new batch of Lightroom presets hit the interwebs and with every new release the choices between which to use become more of a creative struggle. A good struggle no less - and choosing a preset reminds me of choosing a specific type-set when designing copy. Depending upon the scene and the subject - you decide. And I have all of them from day one to choose from and they are awsome.
This time -- XeL:Color Film Emulations -- hit the link for more info as I just can do it justice.
I think they are great - and I keep coming back for more when another - "labor of love" is released by Gray and Oelling.
