Za oknem z dnia na dzień przybywa szarości, temperatura coraz niższa, słońce coraz wcześniej znika za horyzontem. Tym przyjemniej wrócić do obrazków z wakacji - dzisiaj publikuję fotografię wieczoru nad Bałtykiem w sierpniu 2017.

Day by day, it's getting more dull outside, the temperature is getting lower, and the sun is disappearing below the horizon earlier and earlier. It's even neater now to go back to holiday pictures - today I post photo of an evening on the Baltic Sea in August 2017.

🤩 ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: paps.bricks Hello everyone! It's time to direct the spotlight toward our community members, and today we will get to know better paps.bricks!

"Hi everyone. I am Skevos Papageorgiou from Nicosia, Cyprus and I work as a teacher at a primary school.

During the pandemic, I stumbled upon the fascinating world of toy photography, initially experimenting with Playmobil figures. Yet, it was the captivating LEGO creations that truly sparked my imagination.

Despite never owning a LEGO set before last year, I started collecting my first modulars, finding endless inspiration for my snapshots.

My favorite photo subjects derive from the Wild West, pirate adventures and the medieval era. But I also tend to like the simplicity of everyday life scenes.

In my photos I always include some sort of building like workplaces, rooms, or facades etc because they add depth and give viewers more to explore beyond just the minifigure. These details enhance the storytelling in each image, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in it.

Once my setup is ready, I always shoot at the eye level of the minifigure for reasons we're all familiar with. From there, it's all about experimenting with the aperture, lighting, angle, and more until I achieve the desired result.

Drawing ideas from Pinterest, my main goal is to create narratives and capture moments infusing each photo with a unique story. I only wish the process from conception to setup and finally the photo wouldn’t span several days. I must admit I envy people who complete their work in the blink of an eye.

Despite the time-consuming nature of this hobby, every moment spent orchestrating these miniature scenes is incredibly soothing and enjoyable. Though, I must admit, once the shoot is over, the eagerness to tidy up and store everything back in drawers is undeniable!

For my photos I use an Olympus M. Zuiko Digital 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6, a couple of RGB lights by ulanzi and A4 papers as a reflector.

Thank you to the LEGO community for embracing my creative endeavors, and here’s to many more adventures in the world of toy photography!"

Thank you for accepting our invitation and let the community knows you better!

What will I be capturing my honeymoon on?

We are so excited for our trip coming up. Husboy and I have been adding the final touches to our itinerary. We booked a rental car- this will be my first time renting a car in my life, last time I was in a rental car I was in Germany in 2015 and I did not drive. Since we will be there Black Friday weekend I have been on local Reddit pages asking for advice on areas to avoid during the shopping spree.

Speaking of shopping spree I recently (like within the last week) purchased a camera for this trip. I have had a Canon point and shoot for more than a decade, a GoPro Hero 3+ that I barely use outside of snorkeling (and is also a decade old), a Instax SQ40, 2 50+ year old film cameras, and my phone which until recently was a Samsung Galaxy 21. I was mainly travelling with my Canon and Galaxy. I have never owned a digital camera with interchangeable lenses. So I purchased an Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II as a recommendation from my sister who is way more experienced than myself. I'll be shooting with a M. Zuiko digital 40-150mm F4.0-5.6R lens.

I also purchased last minute a drone! I really didn't do a lot of research on it mostly because every Youtube video I watched the dudes just sounded so full of themselves. I purchased a DJI Mavic Mini with the "Fly More" combo. Since we are going to Arizona I really cant think of a better place to get some cool pictures of the desert.

Critical Practice - A Significant Thing

A Significant Thing – Trip 35

The Olympus Trip 35 is a compact 35mm film camera that was based on the older Olympus Pen EES half frame camera.

The name of this camera is an obvious nod to its intended market, people traveling and families who wanted a simple and affordable way to capture memories on holiday. 

It was “affordable” because it retailed for just $59.95 at launch or $530 adjusted for inflation which is roughly in line with an entry level DSLR or mirrorless camera today.

It was manufactured from 1967 to 1984 with over ten million units sold during that time, it came fitted with a built in non-detachable 40mm Zuiko lens that had a constant ƒ/2.8 aperture.

The shooting style of the camera was either an automatic exposure system that had 2 shutter speeds, either 1/40s or 1/200s that would be chosen automatically based on lighting conditions and the iso setting chosen from 25 to 400 or a “manual” mode in which the aperture was set by the user with a constant set shutter speed of 1/40s.

The lens used a zone focusing system with 4 options and was fitted with a solar powered selenium light meter which negated the need for batteries for the camera to operate.

The camera overall is simple in its function which allowed it to be easily accessible to the masses and contributed to its lengthy production run and its good reputation throughout.

The design of this camera is well thought out, it is small and compact and was made from strong metal for the chassis and stiff plastic for the film door with a leatherette grip which is both stylish and functional.

The lens consisted of sharp glass elements (four elements in three groups).

The function dials are all on the lens housing which keeps the camera body from feeling cluttered and messy leaving just the rewind crank, shutter button, the hot shoe and a small shot counter up top. 

There is a simple rangefinder style view finder on the back of the camera body that works well for its size, it has clear frame lines with parallax marking to help compose your image and it also has a smaller “judas window” view in the bottom right corner which gives you a view of your chosen aperture and focus zone on the lens housing.

When using the automatic mode, the viewfinder has a small red flag that pops up when an image will be under exposed, this also locks the shutter.

My personal Trip 35 belonged to my great grandfather who used it as the family camera to capture memories as my mum and her siblings were growing up, my gran says that he used to develop the film himself up in their loft and he always had it with him and I think that is evident with the sings of use left behind on my camera such as a dent in the filter threads on the lens. The small amount of damage to the camera considering its age is also a testament to the quality of materials used back then as well as how much care my great grandad put into keeping the camera in good shape, he kept it in a leather shell case the whole time which took the brunt of the wear. He even left the original QC sticker from the factory on the body.

I like knowing that this camera specifically was used by him as it tells me that one of the camaras I use to capture moments in time was used to capture some of my mum as she was growing up as well.

It was once my great granddads prized possession and now it’s one of mine.

This is one camera I’ll keep forever, it's significant to me and to photography.
