Of light, love, and film: a blog circle project | April 2013

admin — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 09:55:26 +0000

Our theme for our film blog circle this month is “Details”. The Mamiya c330 I acquired several months ago has been gathering dust due to my trepidation to use it. The mechanical contraption is a brick, and commands attention. I finally took it out one day and was stopped several times by curious passersby on my 30 minute stroll to shoot a mere 12 frames of medium format Portra 400.

The manual focus is a challenge and only about half of the 12 frames on my first roll were presentable. So ladies and gentlemen, I present you with the maiden voyage. A meager collection, but one thing is certain. I’m in love :)

Creativity Exercise | Interesting Perspectives

admin — Tue, 02 Apr 2013 09:00:29 +0000

It’s time for another installment of our Clickin Moms CMpro Blog Circle! This month, we’re focusing on “Interesting Perspectives”. I decided to look up to the sky for our challenge, and was treated to a small flock of turkey vultures. Their migration to the Hudson Valley is a definite sign of spring–albeit a creepy one!

Vietnam

I recently had the extreme good fortune of traveling to Vietnam. Flew into Singapore, boarded a cruise ship, and made several stops along the coast of Vietnam before landing in Hong Kong and flying back to the states. Saigon, Nha Trang, Danang, Halong Bay, and Hanoi were among the stops. Sit back and enjoy a trip to the far east!

Of light, love, and film: a blog circle project | March 2013

Our theme for our blog circle this month is “Explore”. This topic is very appropriate as I recently returned from a week and a half in Vietnam! These photographs were taken on a junk in Halong Bay on a foggy afternoon with my EOS-3, 50mm f/1.4, Portra 400, and scanned by Indie Film Lab. I wasn’t comfortable taking my more expensive gear on the junk, which was a bit rickety without guardrails on the steps leading to the top. Cheapest gear won out! :)

Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that covers nearly 600 square miles off the coast of northern Vietnam and is made up of over 3,000 islands of dolomite and limestone. According to legend the landscape was formed by a giant dragon that came out of the mountains and into the ocean (Halong translates into “descending dragon”). Geologists estimate that the formations materialized back in the Paleozoic Era. Millions of years of wind, rain, and the ensuing erosion have resulted in the formations that exist in the Gulf of Tonkin today. It was absolutely surreal to be in the midst of such breathtaking beauty! A wonder never to be forgotten.
