Tunnel vision

Tunnel Impression I

Italy (2012)

It seems I have a thing for photography that is purposely blurred by motion, either panning in one place or travelling with the shutter open.

These are both long hand held exposures, the first one is 1/13 of a second, and the second is a 1/2 second. For this, I find the VR feature an absolute must to get the smooth blur, rather than shaky or jagged light trails.

The internet is still broken at home, but we've had a conversation with the provider, they were very helpful and were able to diagnose that the problem is outside of our apartment, they expect it to be repaired by Saturday night. If not, we are to call them again on Monday.

Biciclette di Como

April 7, 2012

While we were in Como, I noticed all the bicycles around town, so I took a bunch of pictures. Umm, a lot of pictures, and here are 40 of them, I took more though. If we had more time there, I probably would have taken even more. Here is one at the lake:

and here is one at the duomo:

The bicycles themselves are pretty interesting, but so are the walls that they are leaned against. Check them all out, there's quite a variety.

I did take a few pictures of people riding their bicycles, but they aren't included in the set.

Three from Como

We went to Como this weekend, it was a really nice get away. The food was fabulous, the city and people were wonderful. The weather was great (there was even a little thunder)! Here are three pictures I took:
