<br />
"Normal?" I guessed as I wondered whether or not this was a trick question.<br />
<br />
It was 10pm at night, I had just made myself a quick cup of coffee in hopes to stay up a little bit later since there have been quite a few early mornings lately.<br />
<br />
He wanted to make sure I liked the way I looked, because he wanted to photograph me. It was another interesting process. I'm usually pretty hesitant about being photographed on instant film by him because I always feel like a boring subject.<br />
<br />
Tonight's mini study was for him to find a way to connect with his subject, introduce a bit of motion into the image, and vary the composition in the frame. Also, to get away from his seemingly favorite habit of side-lighting me to the point where half my face is in shadow, which I quickly found to be unflattering for me.<br />
<br />
Perhaps the most important part of the portrait taking process... connection with the subject - how you're going to photograph someone who believes being captured on instant film is a waste.<br />

A crazy and confusing past few months.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10117090776738706832noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771930276997900200.post-8288998987928061702015-05-28T13:01:00.004-07:002015-05-28T13:09:41.707-07:00Japan, Part 4: Tsukiji Fish MarketSkipping ahead to the last full day I was in Japan - the Tsukiji Fish Market. <br />
<br />
It was a cold, rainy morning. I remember waiting in line for about an hour to have some early morning sashimi, with more than a hundred others waiting in different lines for tiny sushi restaurants to accommodate them. Shop owners of tonkatsu restaurants irritably shushed people waiting in sushi lines far away from blocking their entrances. <br />
<br />
People quietly judged the tourists sitting around long after their meals had been finished, taking up their precious seating space. The sushi restaurant workers were too kind to ask them to leave.<br />
<br />
When our turn finally came and we were seated, I ordered quickly and finished my meal in a hurry. I hated making people wait, knowing they were standing out in the rain just for some fresh tuna that had been auctioned off and prepared just a few hours before.<br />
<br />
"That was the best tuna I have ever tasted," they said. I couldn't really remember - I can't enjoy a meal when I know I'm being rushed. Either way, eating sushi in Japan never disappointed.<br />
<br />
Afterwards, we walked around in the fish market and boy, "it" came to life. If I had an appropriate word for "it," it would be loosely defined as that source of photography inspiration that so needs to be nurtured outside of work. It's that kind of scene that makes me excited to have a camera around, and maybe wishes I had my entire collection of cameras there with me at the same time.<br />
<br />
The atmosphere was incredible inside the fish market. Workers were bustling with their fish carts, unapologetically honking at the people in the way of their route. Vendors laughed with each other as they smoked, completely uninterested in the tourists marveling at the wide variety of fish carcasses. A worker stopped washing a live octopus to let people touch its suckers. Of all the places in Japan, I think this was actually my favorite place to photograph.<br />

<br />
... until someone's selfie stick nearly takes your head off as they try to take a normal photo with their cell phone with the three foot stick still attached.<br />

I stayed in Kyoto for the first half of the trip, hitting up all the typical tourist spots. Why the heck not? Japan is gorgeous, and Kyoto has so many beautiful places to see. The colors everywhere were amazing.<br />
<br />
For the trip, I decided to pack as light as I could, so I brought along my trusty Fuji X100S and the Instax 210.<br />

Sometimes, they sleep together all cuddled up like this at night. The baby birds have pretty much developed all their final colors. No matter how old they get, the children will always be babies to me.<br />

<br />
It was coming up any minute and turning around on a one lane highway was too stressful to think about.<br />
<br />
I googled "Shark Fin Cove" and looked for any indication of a location on a map and then proceeded to try to match the edges of the coast to the app. It was like studying puzzle pieces.<br />
<br />
It looked like it was coming up soon. One minute later, I told him "It should be any parking area that comes up RIGHT after Bonny Doon road."<br />
<br />
We literally just had a few minutes of light left. It didn't help that I wasn't wearing appropriate footwear.<br />

Also, as a final note, here's how to find Shark Fin Cove, since it wasn't easy finding exact directions.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Basically, turn left and park in the lot that comes RIGHT AFTER BONNY DOON ROAD when traveling north on Highway 1.<br />

It was neat for a few shots, but the crazy amount of <a href="http://anniehallphoto.blogspot.com/2014/07/fuji-x100x100s-50mm-equivalent-update.html" target="_blank">distortion</a> and warping in the sides made any photo that wasn't a close up portrait of a single person pretty much unusable.<br />
<br />
With a trip to Japan coming up soon, I wanted the real thing. So I plunked down $350 and got the Fujifilm TCL-X100 teleconversion lens.<br />
<br />
Here's what it looks like on my X100S:<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here are two thoughts from my initial use of it -</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. There's still some distortion, but easily correctable in Lightroom. I found that setting the distortion to -13 got me a pretty accurate image. I only need to do this if my background has distinct straight lines, such as doorways, window frames, or the horizon of a landscape.<br /><br />EDITED: The firmware update 1.2 fixes this.<br />http://www.fujifilm.com/support/digital_cameras/software/firmware/x/x100s/</div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Left: No distortion correction.<br />
Right: Set the distortion to about -13 in Lightroom.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
2. It's not the sharpest when focusing at close distances. Using the 50mm attachment, yes - I can focus pretty closely. But it will be soft. For pixel-peepers, this will be a glaring problem. For the average shooter, maybe not too much. I don't really consider myself a pixel-peeper, but I did find my close up images a bit too soft for my taste.<br />
<br />
Solution: just back up a bit. Even without the 50mm attachment, the X100/S isn't the sharpest when you're shooting at the minimum focusing distance.<br />
<br />

<br />
Other thoughts:<br />
<br />
It's easy to attach and small enough to fit in a jacket pocket. It made the X100S larger, but definitely not obtrusive. The only thing I'm bummed about it is that I can't use the optical viewfinder with it so it'll drain my battery faster.<br />
<br />
I have a few photos from exploring some new places shot with the X100S and the TCL-X100 50mm attachment that I'll be sharing shortly.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10117090776738706832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771930276997900200.post-19429249210446762622015-01-29T18:46:00.000-08:002015-01-29T18:46:54.979-08:00A Few Frames on Expired Kodak Gold 200Back in late July of last year, I spent a few days by myself driving up over to the northwest side of California. I had two second shooting jobs nearly back to back, so I took a few days to explore the Twin Lakes area, Lake Mary, and even some quick areas of Yosemite as I drove through. I brought along my Nikon FM and a few rolls of Kodak Gold 200 that didn't have any expiration date on them and hoped for the best.<br />

<br />
They were originally purchased as props for a short student film project that I was a part of back in 2012. After production wrapped, I volunteered to take the birds and care for them.<br />
<br />

<br />
Kino and Arri laid lots of eggs together, but unfortunately they were always either unfertilized or never came to term. When Arri died, Kino spent most of the rest of the year alone.<br />
<br />
I decided to move Kino up to Gilroy so I could take care of him every day. He was pretty good during the entire 5 hour drive. At first he squabbled a bit for the first half of the trip, until it got so quiet that I had to pull over and check up on him. I found him sleeping on a perch in the corner contently.<br />
<br />
A few days after moving up to Gilroy, I decided to go to Petsmart and get him a female friend. After so many unsuccessful attempts at breeding with Arri, I figured I'd get him a male friend to avoid having to deal with eggs. Getting a female and having eggs was better than the potential that two male finches would fight all the time, though.<br />
<br />

<br />
I went to Petsmart and picked out a female finch that seemed the calmest, since the rest of the finches were chasing each other aggressively. I brought her home and let her fly into the cage.<br />
<br />

<br />
Kino seemed SO happy and immediately did his mating song, flying around happily. Flo seemed neutral at first.<br />
<br />
I read that to discourage breeding, you simply take away the nest or any nesting materials, so I didn't give them any. One day as I was cleaning up the cage, I noticed that Kino and Flo were staring at a particular corner of the cage, past the bars. Apparently, despite not having a nest, Flo went ahead and laid two eggs, which cracked when they fell from the top perch through the metal floor of the cage. Additionally, when I picked up the cage to clean the bottom, I noticed that Kino had pulled out a bunch of his own feathers in attempts to make a nest.<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">:( At least this egg was unfertilized.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
After that, I decided to give them a nest so that they wouldn't pull their feathers out or have their eggs fall through the bars. Since previous attempts between Kino and Arri to have babies didn't work out, I didn't think that Flo laying eggs would result in anything.<br />
<br />

<br />
Kino and Flo dutifully worked at making a nest in the box and nesting material I provided them. One day, I found a few eggs in there so I decided to candle them (hold a flashlight underneath them to see if they're fertile). Behold, veins!<br />
<br />
With it being the holidays, I didn't have time to keep track of how long it had been since they laid eggs. Occasionally I'd shine a light into their nest to see how things were doing. On New Years Day, I discovered two hatchlings in the nest! At just a few days old, they looked more like potato bugs than birds. I named them Jr and Baby.<br />

Kino and Flo did a great job keeping their tummies fed. Just a few days later, they were big enough for me to reach in and hold them. I also couldn't help but get in on feeding them a little bit of soft egg food whenever they opened their mouths for me.<br />

He drove all the way to Texas from Gilroy, CA to pick up this little one.<br />
<br />
I missed shooting with the Instax, so this was perfect time and place for it. After all, Instax does shine in bright, direct light.<br />

Then a switcheroo of desks, a few shelves installed, and some meticulous planning turned into my own little section of wall that makes me feel like <i>this is my space</i>.<br />
<br />
This will do for now.<br />

So on a hot Sunday afternoon in the summer, we hung out with a few rolls of Tmax400 and a plethora of film cameras.<br />
<br />
A few instants were shot, too. Not pictured here, however.<br />

It's been 4 months since I acquired my little <a href="http://anniehallphoto.blogspot.com/2014/02/fuji-x100x100s-50mm-equivalent-for-35.html">DIY 50mm teleconversion lens</a> for the FujiX100S. Honestly, I haven't been using it too much. It is a little clunky at times and because the lens is so large, I have to use the electronic viewfinder all the time, which drains my camera battery much quicker.<br />
<br />
However, I took it with me to Rhode Island for my week-long trip last week. After shooting with the combo for a whole week nonstop, I can confidently say that I will most likely be buying the real thing from Fujifilm!<br />
<br />
This little DIY 50mm equivalent is most appropriate for:<br />
- Artistic portraits of one person<br />
- Close ups of an object<br />
- The occasional snapshot of something you don't really care about edge to edge sharpness on.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, that's where the list ends. I've found that this DIY 50mm is not suitable for most things, woops!<br />
- Group photos<br />
- Photos of buildings / architecture<br />
- Photos with a clear horizon line<br />
- Event photography (because you need edge to edge sharpness for standard event photography)<br />
<br />
Here are a few examples where I thought the weaknesses of this DIY 50mm were extremely apparent.<br />
