Photog stuff
Photography, travels and the rants that comes with them.
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!!
Há várias coisas que gosto na Livraria Palavra de Viajante, a começar pela Ana e a Dulce, mas esta é uma das minhas preferidas: a mesinha à entrada com os livros em destaque, quase sempre com tema a juntá-los, sempre bem escolhidos!
The worst part of building a new website is writing the About Me page…
Esta é a madrugada que eu esperava
O dia inicial inteiro e limpo
Onde emergimos da noite e do silêncio
E livres habitamos a substância do tempo
It’s great that Nikon is open to vintage inspired cameras, but what would be even better would be lenses, and I’m not even talking about vintage look. A new take on AF-D lenses for Z mount!
One of my questions for my new photo website is whether having comments or not. A static website (how I chose to build it) will always require an external solution, I don’t think a paid service makes sense and free solutions (like Disqus) are a privacy nightmare. Probably I’ll go without it.
Almost there 😊
The slow moments at back at Annapurna, which kind of fit in today’s rainy day.
