Even the smallest puddles!

A trip to the wet ‘n’ windy coast. I love this shot, the coat is the perfect colour for this kind of processing, it’s so easy to pick out, especially in such damp, grey weather!

Retro Camera

I have had this for a while now and have meaning to write about it since I got it so here goes….

I am loving this Retro Camera app on to my HTC Desire Android phone. The app comes with 5 preset settings: The Bärbl, Little Orange Box, Xolaroid 2000, Pinhole Camera and the more recently added FudgeCam. My favourite, as you can see, has to be the Pinhole Camera. There are other similar apps out there producing similar styles of photo but I have not yet found another one with a ‘pinhole’ mode and none of the others I have tried have the same retro appearance about them. The only negative about it for me is the lengthy ‘developing’ time that it has before you can view your shot, when I first installed the app this was brief but has got longer since more recent updates.

I finally managed to capture my dog Chewy whilst he was laid down chilling out, usually my attempts end as soon as I get the camera out, he always gets up and walks off as soon as I point it at him. So, I was really pleased to get these shots of him and to be able to practise using both manual exposure mode and manual focusing. I love the shallow depth of field in this particular shot.

Exposure: 1/200sec, f/5.6 @ ISO800
