Camera: Diana+ Film: Kodak T-MAX 400 Subject: Ceramic Human Sculptures...

Sat, 01 Nov 2008 09:20:13 GMT

Camera: Diana+
Film: Kodak T-MAX 400

Subject: Ceramic Human Sculptures (broken and lying on the ground)
Environment: Outdoor (Day), Shaded cover
Shutter: "B" (01s)
Aperture: Partial sun (f/16)
Focus: 1-2m

[ Why I did it ]
Saw these bunch of scattered "body parts" lying on the ground, figured they were laid there as public art or something artistic related. If I could put this shot off, it would definitely look really surreal...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
I'm able to see the head, some limbs, and other broken pieces of ceramic and stones... Looks like a photo from a ghost novel (kinda anyways)...

Subject: Stacked up Boxes
Environment: Indoor (Day), Indoor lighting with daylight in the background
Shutter: "B" (15s)
Aperture: Sunny (f/22)
Focus: 2-4m

[ Why I did it ]
It's the way the boxes are stacked up that makes a good snapshot... I hope...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Over exposure took out the background... Focus needs work, camera needs to be levelled...

Subject: Crooked Signpost
Environment: Outdoor (Day), Sunny
Shutter: "N" (1/60)
Aperture: Sunny (f/22)
Focus: 4m-Infinity

[ Why I did it ]
Spotted this scene quite sometime back but didn't have my Diana+ with me... Luckily this crooked signpost is still crooked when I finally brought my Diana+ out for a stroll...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Looks good compared to the rest of this roll... Could do with a higher positioning...

Camera: Diana+ Film: Kodak T-MAX 400 Subject: Crane (machine), Close-up...

Camera: Diana+
Film: Kodak T-MAX 400

Subject: Crane (machine), Close-up
Environment: Outdoor (Day), Cloudy
Shutter: "B" (01s)
Aperture: Cloudy (f/11)
Focus: 4m-Infinity

[ Why I did it ]
Cranes (machine) have been coming up all over the island, you could practically see on just by looking up (not really--but still...).

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Guess you wouldn't be able to guess what's the subject of this shot... It's a picture of a crane (machine), overexposed no doubt... You could still make out the windows of the nearby building at bottom half of the picture...

Subject: Sheltered Walkway
Environment: Outdoor (Night), Well lit
Shutter: "B" (20s)
Aperture: Sunny (f/22)
Focus: 2-4m

[ Why I did it ]
Love capturing walkways and passages, somehow they never fail to give someone a sense of unknown...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
I guess I was in a rush and didn't take time to compose myself for this shot... Motion kinda robbed and added mystery to it... Framing needs work too...

Camera: Diana+ Film: Kodak T-MAX 400 Subject: Really Close Portrait Shot...

Sat, 01 Nov 2008 09:19:35 GMT

Camera: Diana+
Film: Kodak T-MAX 400

Subject: Really Close Portrait Shot
Environment: Indoor (Night), Normal Lighting
Shutter: "B" (03s)
Aperture: Cloudy (f/11)
Focus: 1-2m

[ Why I did it ]
See if I could get a decent picture without using the viewfinder and at a very close range (< 1m)...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Didn't expect to be able to even capture a portion of the face... Need more shots to be able to shoot blindly...

Film: Kodak T-MAX 400

Subject: Group of Random Items
Environment: Indoor (Day), Daylight
Shutter: "B" (30s)
Aperture: Pinhole (f/150)
Focus: 1-2m

[ Why I did it ]
Wanted to try a pinhole shot without a tripod (i.e. handheld)... Motion expected...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Expected it to turn out sharp (small aperture, big DOF), but camera shake took this shot away...

Subject: Tree in the Middle of the Road
Environment: Outdoor (Day), Sunny
Shutter: "B" (03s)
Aperture: Sunny (f/22)
Focus: 4m-Infinity

A tree standing in the middle of a road junction, just stands out waiting to be captured on film...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Over, over, over... You can bet I'll be learning from this mistake...

Environment: Outdoor (Day), Partial clouds

[ Why I did it ]
Another old building on black and white... These shophouses are old but newly renovated (new coat of white paint :D )...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Another overexposed result... Still able to make out the details of the structure... Feels like walking in a dream...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
One of the few shots that turned out sharp and presentable...

Camera: Diana+ Film: Kodak T-MAX 400 Subject: Corridor (building walkway)...

Sat, 01 Nov 2008 09:18:30 GMT

Camera: Diana+
Film: Kodak T-MAX 400

Subject: Corridor (building walkway)
Environment: Indoor (Day), Open pathway
Shutter: "B" (10s)
Aperture: Partial sun (f/16)
Focus: 4m-Infinity

[ Why I did it ]
This pathway was gated (and locked), and it gives off a "restricted" aura... Let's see if I could capture this feeling...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Over exposure took away most of the details of this picture, however, a few of its features remain to tell a story...

Camera: Diana+ Film: Kodak T-MAX 400 Subject: Holy Cross (rooftop)...

Sat, 01 Nov 2008 09:18:27 GMT

Camera: Diana+
Film: Kodak T-MAX 400

Subject: Holy Cross (rooftop)
Environment: Outdoor (Day), Shaded cover (taken behind a window)
Shutter: "B" (15s)
Aperture: Partial sun (f/16)
Focus: 4m-Infinity

[ Why I did it ]
Trying out more photo-taking of outdoor (bright light) scenes from indoors (room lighting), and to see if window panels plays a part as well...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
ASA400, bright daylight, long exposure is a no-no... Even when shooting from the indoors...

Camera: Diana+ Film: Kodak T-MAX 400 Subject: Cat (in basket), Distanced...

Sat, 01 Nov 2008 09:18:26 GMT

Camera: Diana+
Film: Kodak T-MAX 400

Subject: Cat (in basket), Distanced
Environment: Outdoor (Day), Cloudy, @ Void Deck
Shutter: "B" (10s)
Aperture: Sunny (f/22)
Focus: 1-2m

[ Why I did it ]
The cat was still there sitting in the basket... Might as well take another shot from a distance... Hope the cat would not move and stay still for this shot...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Due to the long exposure, the background "whited-out", leaving behind the intended subject...

Subject: Cat (in basket), Close-up
Environment: Outdoor (Day), Cloudy, @ Void Deck
Shutter: "B" (20s)
Aperture: Sunny (f/22)
Focus: 1-2m

[ Why I did it ]
Yes!!! More cat photos... This particular one was sleeping in the bicycle basket... The moment I was exposing the film, the cat woke and moved... I guess I should be expecting subject motion in this shot...

[ Photo :: Thought ]
Overall it turned out to have a ghostly effect, the cat has turned into a white apparition... Open to interpretations...
