Bulbasaur - Ivysaur Pokemon Sculpture Succuent Planter

This is my Shiny Bulbasaur/Ivysaur planter sculpture I made last year with the Succulent inside it. It died tho. Hand painted, and hand sculpted. Made with Scupley.

I used my 50mm Prime lens (pancake). 

Key West Florida Southernmost Point Pre-Lockdown March 2020

 

Yes, I ACTUALLY went down to Florida this year, IN MARCH,  with my Dad, LITERALLY RIGHT BEFORE LOCKDOWN. We also went to the Florida Keys and especially Key West. In fact, we left a day early.

Florida is especially challenging for my to photograph because it's in the Tropics and more sunlight so I'm not accustomed to this kind of light exposure. There's more light density there. I find I OFTEN hate all my photos when I'm down there. 

Old South Union Church Pantry Garden

 

I often play Pokemon Go here. I nominated this garden to be a POkeStop opn the Niantic Wayfarer, which got approved... however, someone moved the point into the wrong cell so u can't play it in PoGo. Only in Ingress.

Shot these on my new Samsung Galaxy S10e which actually has decent HDR AI algorithm technology

South Field- Union Point Film Equipment Spring-Summer 2020

 

So, there's been a lot of movement at South Field by the Hangar (AKA The Hang Out) over in SOuth Filed (Union Point) with a security detail. They're been moving around quite a bit. My friend, Roland, also went there and saw it himself. (We're both filmmakers.)

I play Pokemon Go over there, n I mentioned this to the players n 1 of the players in the Discord server confirmed they were official crew on that film project for Disney. They alleged they were the LAST crew before quarantine lockdown (March/April). However, there's been a significant uptick in in activity there since May, tents and everything.

High Key Lilacs Vintage 1970s Lens Experiements in Lockdown 2020

 

As you can see, these were all originally shot in High Key.... not actually my style, and also not originally intentional. But, not bad. I tend to prefer more color saturation tho. 

It's fine if you like High Key, and sometimes I do that by accident, but I shot them in high key to maintain the Depth of Field which was letting is a LOT of light exposure making it very white washed. I elected to keep it in High Key for the entire shoot, then processed them myself. I wasn't sure what the post processing would look like, but I like them. I just like my saturated processed photos more. I just usually don;t care for low key or high key that much but they are interesting styles of photography.

Spring Lilacs Vintage 1970s Lens Experiments Durring Lockdown 2020

 

These were a series of subjective experiments I shot back in the Spring using 2 different adapters for my old vintage 1970s lens on my EOS CANON 70D. IN my neighborhood in South Weymouth Mass.

I processed them in: Adobe Light Room, Camera RAW, and Adobe Photoshop Creative Cloud 2020.

I've also shot some on my 50mm prime lens (pancake). 

I've had a Profile on GuruShots for a few years and have several high ranks and awards on it, and recently my 500Pix Account.
