Athens photos
A few shots from the winter of 2025. The last one was inside of the Acropolis Museum. (Unfortunately, I could get everyone to walk exactly where I wanted them to. hahaha)
New version of Bluristic available
For iPhone users - a new version of Bluristic has dropped (v1.8) which offers new features and significant improvements in stability & useability.
Focus Stacking ~ New to Me
I am interested in learning Macro/Closeup photography and understanding that Focus Bracketing is a good part of the process, I thought I would give focus stacking a try.
Vintage Lens
Another visit to our garden using a vintage lens (Canon FD 50mm f/1.4) on my Canon R5. NOTE: With this lens the minimum focusing distance is 18" at which point you have 1/4" depth of field.

Two-dimensionally this image works well. The luminosity, color contrast, geometry, and form are all great. Kudos for shooting telephoto too! The crux is the context in three-dimensions. It's an in-betweener that doesn't place the home in a clear dominant position, due to obstructions and the amount of space given to the neighboring Tudor:
All leading lines point to the stone chimney of the neighboring home. Keep in mind the plane that's most straight on with the camera is likely to be the one the eye will rest on.
Secondly, having an unlit cold walled off 'ground' emotionally isn't inviting. I know that was probably a limitation rather than choice, but grass is always greener ;-)
For these high up homes, I typically pull out a drone right after sunset or hit it closer from the yard and flash away.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback and suggestions. Thanks again.
I think it's a great shoot in general. But commercial wise. You have 2 houses in the frame. Unless this was the point to show 2 properties of the same architect in one picture, I think you missed the "big picture"
Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback
