Chasing Light.
That’s what I do. Except when it comes to me. Yesterday evening, it came to me. It was so strong and calling to me so loudly that I could not help myself. I had to make the picture. It was almost too strong. I had to work in post production to tune down the contrast and the color.
If you know my work, you know that doing that is very rare. I’m usually more color. More contrast. More shape. More. More. More.
Not this time.
After all, things change.
It’s a lovely spring day. I’m going outside.
I have a new toy to play with, er test. A new camera. A baby Leica. It’s small. It has one lens. 24-75mm, which is about my perfect range. Its aperture is fairly fast at f1.7 to f2.8. My working theory is that often when I travel I don’t have enough time to really work, but when I do I’d like to travel lightly. Very lightly. This camera should do it. The reviews are outstanding. Sheesh. No matter what size, it’s a Leica.
Wish me fun and luck. And, that my editing software actually can process the Leica’s files.
Love the abstract feel of your composition. So Leica has a proprietary digital file format?

Thank you. They all do. If you shoot Nikon, it’s called NEF. The code changes with each new camera body. Since Adobe doesn’t play nice with anybody, even though they knew a new body was coming, it could be months until Photoshop could actually develop new Nikon files. This Leica has been around since Nov 2018 so I imagine photo editing companies should have caught up.

Ah, that must be why Adobe has to update their RAW software so often.

Well, that and they do make other changes. I’ve left them long ago…
