Boring day Photography is Looking Stale

Posted on by martinbelgica
Due to industry projections photography is looking stale is it really getting that old. My photographic mind is winding down into ideas of mimicry and documentation is it worth it to pursue further? Inversions looks fun but still feels stale. This is the only interesting shot I got, anways here are more photos.

Fireworks 2022

Posted on by martinbelgica
It's been 2 years of keeping that tradition of taking photos of fireworks when the end of the year comes, my 2021 firework photos got deleted due to storage errors. I lost a lot of photos since 2014 and when I say a lot i mean really a lot like years of work and practice. I always felt like quitting this photography and imaging gig. Anyways 2022 is New years and let's hope for the best. I am writing this december 2022 cause I am such a liar. 

Battle with the fungal infested sensor the final stand of my Nikon D80

Posted on by martinbelgica
Upon shooting again with the old D80 I decided to let it go the fungal is strong. I bombarded in tolerable amounts of light cleaned it hoping it lessens, but to no avail the end is for it to be repaired and cleaned but based on what I searched on the internet I saw marks left after cleaning the sensor, stains and stuff, so at the end of this post the D80 needs to retire. I took photos with the pheonix 500mm for fun Just like the fungus of the sensor it creeps It is not noticeable sometimes but knowing it is there is irritating. A game of pretend might solve the problem White with worms of infestation What if...Read More

The D80 has a Texture that is Lovable

Posted on by martinbelgica
I bought a 2nd hand Nikon D80 3 years ago and I loved it. It has a texture that is processed very well in post. [caption id="attachment_3366" align="aligncenter" width="474"] Nikon D80 textures Gate with Cobwebs[/caption] New image processing (in)camera has improved a lot in terms of color and texture but old camera bodies has its own aesthetic appeal in terms of texture and color handling.

Tamron 18 – 400mm test metering problems

Posted on by martinbelgica
Here is what happened when I switched to 18mm it kept its aperture at f/6.7 the metering was off and so again I shoot on the go so I do not check that much when I do these types of photography, the lens camera relationship didn't work. I was expecting the lens to go to aperture f/3.5 at 18mm. My metering was off but that is part of my style of photography checking your metering is recommended but sometimes that moment has passed when you look at the view finder you lost that shot. I was expecting it to go to f/3.5 but the case is the lens needed to adjust at that metering and so the lens has a...Read More
