Postsbambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readStreet photographyMy walk was aimless For the first time in a long time I went out to nowhere. To be more exact, I went out without the purpose of arriving at any place. I just stayed at home and decided to take a walk. That's why there is no plot or, as they say, no general mood for any kind of photography. The subject of the photo is the walk itself and…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 3 min readSubject photographyPerhaps this post would fit more into some community where the members do woodcarving. But there is subject photography here :) Yes, I have photographed objects that I have made with my own hands. Before I got into photography, I was really into wood carving. It got to the point where I was taking orders for strangers. These were souvenirs…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readAmong the reedsI found an interesting place to shoot. A realm of reeds and birds. Today was the first warm day of May. I had time. If you want to see birds go where their nests are. The reeds haven't grown yet and you can see far away. These landscapes were taken with a fisheye lens. It usually has significant geometry distortion…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readNorthern DesertI can imagine what a desert might look like, even though I've never been to one. Lots of sand, endless horizon and blue sky. A couple of days ago we were on vacation on the shore of the Baltic Sea. In this place the sandy beach passed into low dunes, and behind the dunes there was again relatively flat sand. But behind the dunes you could…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readSpring observationsSpring ... how much is in that word ... This year's spring weather is unusual. I would even say that strange. In March, all the snow melted. In April there were two snowfalls, northern winds brought frost. So far the fruit trees are in no hurry to bloom. But primroses appear from the ground and delight the eye with rich colors of…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readPhoto experimentsToday I would like to introduce you to the results of my experiments. All photos are made with long shutter speed and homemade tripod head. I made it to try out this shooting technique. You can buy a real factory gimbal head, but they are quite expensive and I didn't know if I needed one yet. Now I know I need it, but at this stage I'm…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readSpring walkIt's good that there are such wonderful places not far from me. Just about half an hour by car and you are on the shore of the Gulf of Finland. This is the Sestroretsk resort. Of course, it is not the southern sea, there are no palm trees and scorching sun. More often it rains here and it is cool. But not today. Yes, exactly today, I just…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readThree photos from the same locationMy eyes miss the colors and flowers of nature. Winter is over. But it managed to come back to us a couple times with snow and frost. So, uh. May will soon be here, and we haven't even had green yet. In spring, it's common to talk about the coming summer. That's how we procrastinate. It's true that in the fall, some people want to dive right…bambuka in # photography • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readKeep children safeHello, children, tonight I'm going to tell you a bedtime story. Are you ready to listen? Charlie, don't hide under the table, I can see you. Sonia, why are there tears coming out of your eyes? Oh, you're saying it's smoke. Then it's okay. You're a good girl. Joni, put the phone in your briefcase. You won't be needing it anymore. Now…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readMobilographyI don't really like mobile photography. I'm used to shooting everything on a SONY camera with interchangeable lenses. Each lens has its own peculiarities. There are modern ones, there are a lot of manual optics, there are homemade lenses from slide projector lenses (also an interesting topic). But there are situations when you don't have a…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readGoodbye snowAfter three days of snowfall, today was a sunny day. The snow started to melt quickly and the roads dried up. We took advantage of this moment and went to the shore of the Gulf of Finland Today there was an interesting light on the Gulf. If I stood with my back to the sun, the colour of the sky was rich, thick, lush The green of the pine crowns…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readI want summer.If you start looking at the photo from the last slide... you'll see what's happening outside my window right now. The first leaves have already started to bloom on the cherry trees, the starlings have arrived and prepared their homes for their offspring.... and a couple of days ago the north wind blew in and brought us snow. That's not fair. I…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readRapid weather changehistory repeats itself. Maybe it's another tinkerer's day. A couple of weeks ago there was a similar story. Warm, outside +20C, everyone melted, cars were re-worn in summer .... When the snow melted, I also decided to change the tyres ... and I did it, yeah. Now I'm sitting here smoking bamboo. Just yesterday we were quietly admiring the…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readEnigmaTake a close look at this photo, what do you see in it? Surely it's smoke. Have you ever looked up into the sky and seen clouds? I'm sure you have. And you might recognise different animals, birds, objects in them. Look closely, what does this smoke represent? Well, I have a more difficult task for you. Although it may be easier for some…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 2 min readPhotos of the smokeYesterday, as it got dark outside my window, I continued my smoke experiments. At the very least, it's a fun and rewarding way to pass the time. You have a non-trivial task ahead of you. Firstly you have to shoot in the dark (you don't want to have a picture of your walls ... unless of course you have your own studio ... unless, of…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readSpring seaA fire extinguisher with a map of South America on the shore of the Gulf of Finland looks at least unexpected and amusing. What could catch fire here? Wet reeds or cold sand. But anything can happen, depending on the temperature of the fire..... Only the sea is unperturbed. Its waters are free of ice and it is happily oxygenated. The sea…bambuka in # photography • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readSummer moodHello, friends! It's spring outside, but the trees only have thick buds. And I want to see green tree crowns, grass, blue sky. I want summer already. And to wake up all sorts of insects. I miss the ants. It's true. there are ticks in the grass, and they're waking up too. But we won't talk about sad things. The computer…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readA little smoke in the ribbonHello everyone!!! I have recently started a series of photography experiments where smoke is the protagonist. My task is to capture the pattern that smoke leaves in a beam of light. Hence the need for the smoke itself and the beam of light. I get the smoke from Indian aroma sticks. They give smoke for quite a long time and it has an…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readReport from the exhibition 2I continue to introduce you to a small exhibition of my friends Alexander Pozin and Marina Spivak. I have never seen Marina sewing when I visit her. Something was mentioned, but I have not seen this side of her work. Sculpture, casting, less painting. but not sewing. And here I was pleasantly surprised. The first floor…bambuka in Photography Lovers • 2 yr. ago • 1 min readReport from the exhibitionRecently I came to the opening of a small cosy exhibition "Life Cycles and Zigzags" Two sculptors (my friends) organised the whole thing by their own efforts - an exhibition of their works from different years.
