yes, it is looking a bit battered up these days, but is usually in my bag. This time I would have tried to get a better pic but was comfortable sitting with my beer and seafood stir-fry.

Good workhorse of a camera, I have had a few repairs done, but they were my own fault. Once dropped when buying a sausage, once fell off a motorbike the carpark of a brothel (we were only turning round I assure you) and many more bumps and scrapes along the way,

I still love to mess around with my APS-format EOS IX7 (six quid on eBay - the batteries cost me more); it amuses me to stick an £800 hired lens on the front of it...

ha, it's funny that you're close enough to be visible in that shot & yet still unnoticed. was looking at yr flickr, chinavision, & really dug a string of shots that look like they were maybe taken in similar spots, like a cartoonish suited guy with an expression of haughty disdain, etc. really great.
― schlump, Saturday, 1 October 2011 13:57 (twelve years ago) link
A lot of the shots are from the Financial District in Lower Manhattan, since that's where I work (I try to religiously give myself a lunch photo-hour every day). It means a.) I'm tired of taking photos in that neighborhood but also b.) I have a pretty good idea of where to go for good light and interesting people! And thanks!

PS I do not work in finance.
ha, yeah i thought it was downtown. going to assume that you wear the camera around your neck all day long, as an arty totem separating you from your vampiric finance peers
― schlump, Saturday, 1 October 2011 14:27 (twelve years ago) link
You know the funny thing is after walking around taking photos in that area for a year or so, I really start to see people again and again that I've photographed. I get to feel like a real creep! "You might not know me.... but I *sure* know you."

Man, some of the stuff in this thread is really fabulous. I'm also v. glad to know about IHKH -- Yahoo's neglect of Flickr is really starting to piss me off, but there's nothing better yet.
Have been attempting to stop being so persnickety about the technicalities of photography recently, which sometimes results in pics I like: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5019/5641942552_084d7f2b51_z.jpg

downloaded the Nik Color Efex 4 demo to see what it is - 99% of the filters are useless and the vignette takes some work, but the film modules are quite nice (if you eliminate the fake grain). Not worth $200, but if the student discount gets it down to $70ish, I might buy it.

i can't remember if this was the thread we were talking about ways of displaying your photos online in, but, just to revive: so many nice sites are made with indexexhibit, & i've never got around to trying it because i'm kinda satisfied with what i've got. but just in case anyone's still looking. this is a neat example: http://k3rstijanw3rdal.com/project/family/ (i googleproofed, es for 3s)

A bit more high contrast that usual. I must have been just exposing for highlights on this. Pretty sure that if I had a lab do the scan it would look bad.

Surreal. I mean, it's not that strange, but seeing that combination of things in a nice-looking neighbourhood is disorienting.
An acquaintance had some ink drawings in a showing last weekend. This guy was there, an artist of some local repute, apparently.
