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.

My Stock Photography on Dreamstime

A year ago I'd uploaded a bunch of my stock photography to Dreamstime.

I'm still technically new there, but I spent a lot of time last year practicing with my photography and videography, as well as film-making.









Here's the most "popular" photos I have up so far:

Test Footage Filming at Hidden Pond in Hingham MA

Behind Wholefoods at Derby Street Shops in Hingham MA is a little spot called "Hidden Pond". I was there this evening before sunset, and most of the cool carved sculptures were gone. Very disappointing.

But, I did manage to get some video footage B-Roll on my action camera/camcorder the AKASO EK7000.

I also got bit a lot by mosquitoes.

The World's End Park in Hingham MA


 It turns out that The World's End is actually a REAL PLACE, and it's in Hingham Massachusetts not far from where I live.

It's right here on Yelp too. 

Well, I've been scouting out shooting locations for a cosplay atistic style of TV show for WCA9 TV in Weymouth, and 1 place I wanted VERY MUCH to check out was The World's End, which is actually a private property nonprofit Park.

It's ALSO NOT FREE.

But, the reviews and photos of The World's End park were amazingly gorgeous! And, it it was highly rated.

My friend, and co-director, Roland, drove up there with me today, and they lady in the little hunt talked to us, and I even had to sign a waver. It's at least $6 per person, and $100 for a wedding, and there's also a membership price if you want that.

She was very kind, and generous and spoke to us for quite a while, and even gave me a lot of information, literature, and so on, and generously allowed us to take some sample photos.

Unfortunately, the lighting today was not ideal, and very cloudy. But, I did manage to get a lot of interesting footage.

It's SUPER CLEAN too. No liter at all.

If I had funds to shoot here I would.

I'm very grateful for letting us walk around and take some photos.
