The Bees are enjoying the crocus again
For some reason I haven't found much enthusiasm for photography recently, but seeing the bees all buzzing around the crocus, on a nice sunny day today, got me reaching for my camera again.
... so, fresh off the press, here's two shots made and processed just half an hour ago-
I'm struggling to find inspiration at the moment too. Sunshine helps!
The shallow DoF works really well here.
Lost and Found
I came across some of my early music photography, which I had lost, whilst sorting out a cupboard. I am still in convalescence, and it has rained solidly for two weeks, so here is some stuff from 1988.
Copies made with a Z7 + 50mm macro and a Nikon negative copier attachment.
Riccardi Chailly. A favourite ( subject who I have photographed several times)
Jan Latham Koenig
The tourist magnet where The Man With The Golden Gun was filmed. I went there as a teenager, it was quite the journey back then. Much easier last year. Wasn't as crowded as I feared and I managed to find a composition that made it seem even less so.
A wonderful place and those clouds!
Balat, Istanbul.

Sad to see this old timber building falling into disrepair. I believe Istanbul is famous for these old timber buildings.

Wild daffodils for Saint David's day
The first signs of spring are appearing. Are these Welsh daffodils?
Actually it was band name who performed on March, 1st, celebrating 10th anniversary of their first stage presence. There was 3 warm-up bands as well, so it was almost 5 hour show. Music was what kids nowadays pass for rock music, I guess :P, going from punk-metal to rap nu metal, not my first pick to listen, but all the bands were playing with great energy and it was contagious.
Shots are processed from in-camera JPG-s, just some cropping and light adjustment, as DXO does not support my new camera yet..
Some wild, wild stuff here! This is my favourite

As already mentioned, great to feel spring is imminent. All the pollen aside, of course.

Impactful. Is that even a word?
Care to explain a little on the technicalities?

Wow - the 3rd shot would work well, whether one knows the context or not.

I bet that bought back lots of memories!
It's a nice setting, easy to see why it became famous.
I might have zoomed in a bit more.
Last gasp of winter
We had -15C last week, today is +14C and I see some buds on the trees...
That works quite well with the soft warm lighting behind the cold jagged ice crystals

Second vote for these two from me.
Looks like that concert was full of energy!

Good !!
They certainly have that B&W film feel to them. Nice to discover old things like that.
I'm clearing out and making some space in my office at home at the moment. Finding all sorts of old treasures :-)
