FortyFive Number 2

FortyFive

Back at the beginning of April I created som in-camera multiple expose pictures based on a square image with a defined 45 degree line. At the time I used the Canon R. A few days after I repeated the exercise with the Fuji X100V. As before I just wandered around the house looking for 'Lines created by shadow and light'. at various white balance setting, all in light mode. 

Out of the multitude of images :) I I choose 12 to create Triptychs. Only basic adjustments in Lightroom and then the panels created in Photoshop.


I created 5 Triptychs. I have included the individual images after the Triptychs

CCC Trip to the Cambridge Botanical Gardens

CCC Trip to the Cambridge Botanical Gardens 

Back in April we had a Cambridge Camera Club visit to the Cambridge Botanical Gardens. Such a peaceful place to visit and it was good to meet up with some people I had not seen for a while and to meet new friends.I decided to try a bit of narrow depth of field images with the macro lens close in and where possible shoot through leaves and flowers etc. I was shooting with the Canon R Mirrorless Camera with the Canon EF L Series Macro Lens fitted. Mostly at f/2.8

The last three photos where taken while I waited to be picked up by Sue at Trumpington Park and Ride. These taken with the Fuji X100V in multiple Exposure mode and clanging the white balance in camera. The Fuji produces images with different feel to that of the Canon. It has a 35mm equivalent focal length lens. The first of the three I have played with in Photoshop. The other two are straight form the camera with colour adjustments in Lightroom only.

London - St Pancras Station

Getting towards late afternoon and I was a tad tired. We got to St Pancras Station to walk through to Kings Cross. This is really a lovely station. There is a statue of Sir John Betjeman  and just past it toward the front entrance is Paul Day's 'The Meeting Place'. I first saw this statue way back when we had a family holiday down in Provence and traveled there by train. This has to be one of my favourite statures I could walk around it for hours looking at the scenes.

London - Canal Walk to St Pancras Station

London - Canal Walk to St Pancras Station

After we left the Gasometer area we walked to this lovely Nature Reserve where we met up with most of the Day Trippers from the Camera Club for Lunch. From there we walked back to St Pancras Station past the Francis Crick Institute Building where I played a bit with in-camera multiple exposures.
