Once again I haven’t posted for some time!
My son David became engaged to Hannah on Valentines day, and they called in last night to show me the engagement ring. π
I’ve recently been playing with my old Olympus E20 camera, hard to believe that many years ago it was the first digital camera that I used for weddings to master the transition from medium format. The cameras that I’ve used since then are so much faster with a major leap in image quality, pixel count and usability but the Olympus at a mere 5 mega pixels is still quite a capable performer. These two snaps were captured as jpeg images (the Olympus is even slower capturing in RAW format) using the in-built pop up flash. The images have just had a quick adjustment for colour balance, contrast and saturation in Photoshop using the iCorrect Edit Lab Pro plug in and then saved for web. Quite strange once again doing image tweaking in Photoshop as professionally I’ve been using Lightroom for some time. I still use the Olympus now and again as a walk about camera when I want something with a little more control than my point and shoot Fuji F11 which seems to live permanently in my pocket and is a very capable snap shot camera.
Here’s a picture of David and Hannah’s new puppy taken last night.
And here’s a picture of Tiegan taken a couple of weeks ago.
My mum had a new sofa and chair delivered yesterday so I called over to see them this morning, they’re in dark brown leather and look very nice, the leather is also very soft and comfortable. Another trip over there in the morning as the tap in the hand basin in her bathroom is stiff but I didn’t have any tools with me this morning.
