Inverted Reality

Sometimes things are not what they seem. We see it all the time, personalities, attitudes, and all sort of character traits in between. In a recent post, I had asked for donations for a child abroad whose going to have an operation and his family was in dire need of some assistance. To my surprise, people responded and opened their hearts to help a family abroad. I’m very grateful to all those who donated and to all those who will keep, little Raulito, in their prayers ― Gracias.

State of Address

This post is more of an update, kind of like a rough draft of what I’m thinking these days. I can honestly say that I feel quite good where I am photographically speaking. I’ve learned a lot and the journey continues. These days I’m very interested in compositions, how light reflect on objects (including people), muted tones, and also playing with strobes. In short, I’m having a blast and I look forward to what the future holds. Long live digital photography and creativity. Cohiba Cigars ― LX5

What do you do with images that somehow don’t fit in any category. Well, make  a new category and call it — Just Stuff. These are all DNG converted to have the look of the Lumix GF1/LX3 Dynamic B&W with a custom preset. I like this look quite a bit. When I compared the SOOC jpegs shot in Dynamic B&W with the Panasonic GF1, these raw files converted looked to be an exact representation. Which works out great for me, since  I now have another way in which to process my raw files to have this distinctive look.
