Big summer post (part i)

It’s been quite a while since I last updated this blog, so here goes. The post consists of photos from the entire summer of 2017, and it is “part i,” because there’s still a lot of black and white films left to develop and scan (coming in part ii). Enjoy :) First, here are some […]

Back to black and white

The little Ricoh GR renders such beautiful colors, that for a long while I stopped producing black and white images, but I felt it was time I got back on the wagon. The GR preview mode has a very nice black and white setting (via effects) to help you set up your frames with b&w in […]

Long overdue post

I apologize in advance for the long post, but that’s what happens when you never find the time. It’s been a very busy and difficult time.

Short colour post

Ricoh GR black and white test drive

this is my first test drive of the Ricoh GR as an all-around, walk-around, street-snapping black and white camera. ISO settings are set at Auto (100-800) and all images are converted in Lightroom, using customized VSCO plugins (mainly HP5, Tri-X and Neopan 400). My first impressions are very, very positive:   I predict some serious […]
