I obviously missed some things in that Pop Photo review of the Sigma DP1 that I read the other day. They’re saying it takes 12 seconds to save a RAW file to the memory card! I did another quick glance through the article (yeah I really should re-read it fully but I don’t have time right now) and found no mention of what card they were using. I hope they mention in there because that would be sloppy testing to not state what equipment they were using. [...]

We got some snow the other night, and I’m going to go out on a limb and guess it’s going to be our last for this season. I decided to head out and try to catch some photos before the sun was gone while there was still some snow. I wound up at Mendon Ponds and shot some photos there before wandering some of the nearby back-roads looking for future photo opportunities. [...]

Awkwardly I don’t think I’ve talked much about this camera here, but it’s been on my mind for over a year. I’ve been soul searching for a good digital camera with a fast, fixed lens and large “SLR sized” sensor for several years now. My Olympus Stylus Epic, although probably the lowest of such film cameras, was a great tool and a lot of fun to use. [...]

I just realized I never posted these here, but I figure I should have. These are what I call “selectively un-desaturated” since that follows the overall process of creating them. These were shot in the Fall of 2006 while I was doing some work and my cat Ghost was trying very hard to help. Eventually he just stole my pencil and started playing with it. Recently I decided to reprocess these, the color really wasn’t adding anything to them I thought. [...]

Last week I walked along the Erie Canal two days in a row for a break from the usual and to see whether there was anything that might catch my eye photographically. I wound up under the Winton Rd bridge a lot, and the second day made use of the 90mm Tilt-Shift to enable me to take a couple photos like these: I relied on using some tilt in both cases since there was no way to set up a tripod and even if a smaller aperture gave me enough DOF, I wouldn’t have been able to hand hold it. [...]

Saturday I went up to Lake Ontario with a friend I hadn’t seen for a couple years to talk through some troubles with him. He wanted to walk out the pier on Charlotte Beach so I brought along my camera just in case it was worthwhile to snap a few pictures. Apparently the pier is usually closed off with an ineffective barrier of some sort but it was wide open and uncleared like the rest of the beach-park. [...]
