Photog stuff
Photography, travels and the rants that comes with them.
So… Leica released a new M without the rangefinder part, only with an electronic viewfinder.
I’ll grab some popcorn, sit down and start reading the comments!
How not to love Flickr’s error page?! Has been this one for some time, but it still almost makes me see wanna see it more often!
…Almost.
Yet again the internal memory of the Ricoh GR III saves the day, despite only having it for some weeks. Don’t know why we don’t have this from more manufacturers, doesn’t need to have super capacity, just enough for a few shoots when you forget the SD card.
Every once in a while I stumble upon some kind of rant regarding Adobe subscriptions prices or hidden fees. And the more I see this the more I glad I moved to darktable years ago. Yes, the UI may not be as polished and sometimes might have multiple ways to do same thing (in true open-source fashion), but I’d rather have that than feeling trapped in corporate greed. And it’s free as in free beer, but that’s really secondary.
In a world with less and less hope, losing the truly inspiring people, someone as inspiring as Jane Goodall, is particularly hard… But the work and message carries on and can still inspire us.
My photo site (built on Hugo) was taking a lot to deploy after I added all the older content, as the pipeline was always deploying the entire site. Finally took time to look at it, and only upload the changes. I guess I got a slight improvement.
Como gostava de poder ver isto em pleno Planalto Mirandês! Nos próximos dias vai estar nesse cantinho de Portugal, para quem estiver por perto.
I love postcards! I try to send them as often as possible when I travel. I love receiving them at home ! This one made it all the way from Albania.
Dave In Portugal has a neat video about the culture shock of his four years living in Portugal, but cherry on top of it has to be this Quim Barreiros moment!
I’ve lost track the amount of times I’m going to open the app formerly known as Twitter and end up opening Fujifilm’s app. At least I use Twitter less and less often.
I was watching a video of new a camera (the new Hassie l, but that’s irrelevant) and mentioned something almost as a complain: these new models bring less and less new features. Well, that’s where we are right now, with the current release cycles, more of these incremental changes.
Nowadays you walk a lot in airports, or run, between gates. One of the many reasons I hate flying nowadays…
In a time where optimism with things around the world is at an all-time low, at least for me, having a documentary on your flight called “A optimist’s guide to the world” might be a good omen.
I have a new site! I explain it more in the post, but I really hit a wall with the old one. Hope this one works better!
Now I must rest, I have a flight early in the morning, but do take a look!
So, the Fuji X-E5 is out, not planning to buy one, but as an owner of both a X-E2 and X-E3, and still in use, this is a series that holds a sweet spot in my heart. Only later can check the reviews, but anyone has thoughts on it? Is the film dial too gimmicky?
While working on the new site, and as programmer, doing the coding part was smooth, getting the content ready is much more painful…
Not the Torres Del Paine photo I was imagining, but might be my favorite.
Voting done, shopping done, lunch is already ongoing, time to put some effort in my huge photo backlog.
Kraig releasing his Huemul Circuit video is just what I needed for this weird Friday. Such a good flashback, although to be a proper one I must see it in reverse because I hiked it in the opposite direction.
O Ruca e a Matia achavam que aquela coisa onde trocaram as alianças e tal era a cerimónia a sério. Nem sabiam o que os esperava no Annapurna! Nem eles nem nós!!
