WARREN, CONNECTICUT – Here we are, back outside in the rain with my Alpa in hand. Actually on a tripod. Rain intensifies the browns and greens in the landscape so this is a nice opportunity to get close. Here are two samples from a series. These were taken with my Alpa TC, a 48mm Schneider APO lens and a Hasselblad digital back. Both images were made with focus stacks. I made seven exposures in each case, with each exposure focusing on a different point, and combined them with a software package called Helicon Focus. This results in much greater depth of field than could be obtained otherwise.
. . . and . . .
On this day last year: Brunch at CT.
On this day one year ago: Walking back from lunch. The restaurant that I mentioned in this post last year closed with no notice under mysterious circumstances. They just put a sign out saying they were closed. They had received excellent reviews and were always packed. The rumor mill suggests that it was something to do with the owner’s divorce or a litigation involving employee tips. Too bad.
On this day last year: View from poker game venue.
On this date one year ago: Jim and Kelly. May 19 seems to be National Portrait Day.
