20 Nov 2024 Themes Planes, Trains, Automobiles; Dia De Los Muertos: Gary
It was Gary’s idea to meetup Nov 2nd 2024 for the Old Town Dia de los Muertos festivities. Thinking it would be a great street photography opportunity. He was right. He was also right in suggesting the San Diego Trolley as a means to get there. It was packed and parking was not available within a mile of the place. Gary also shared a few transportation- themed images. He shoot with a Nikon Z7 full-frame mirrorless camera with a versatile 24-200mm zoom lens. His iPhone 15 Pro camera is his second camera.

Additionally, he’s been experimenting with an iPhone app, Waterlogue, that converts photos into watercolor images. He’s been really happy with the result and how easy the app is to use. Here are the photos he shared:

Gary shared three color-themed photos this month. His backyard, the last few months, has been a great location to photograph. Just goes to show you don’t have to travel far to find great photos.
19 June 2024 “How I’d Edit” & Architecture: Gary
Gary’s been busy re-landscaping his backyard and fortunately he’s come across some spontaneous image opportunities. Which are often harder than planned images. He only had two this month and they weren’t theme-related but any great shots are always welcome.
