Well done, Toots! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 219: Fisheye Fun!

Sunday, August 7, 2016

I had forgotten my Samsung Galaxy S5 cellphone had a fisheye effect.  So I have combined two of my favorite photographic quirks:  Fisheyes and panoramas!  Click on it a couple of times to see it full-sized.  BACK to return here. It is quite a bit different than my other Fair panoramas as seen in recent […]

A couple of photographs from the Fair: These were taken on my Samsung Galaxy S5 cellphone.  This is the art filter “oil pastel”. “Cartoon” This cellphone has a bunch of filters I haven’t played with.  More fisheye fun tomorrow! ~Curtis in /\\onTana! {!-{>

Day 225

Tuesday, August 11, 2015

The Photography Exhibition at the Montana State Fair is next door to the Flower Exhibition.  Since they have a really small room, they share space with us when they are accepting flowers to be exhibited. In addition to the great smells and a bit of extra air conditioning… …they provide us with some nice flowers […]

Down at the end of the Advanced section we have a cabinet we fill with old cameras and stuff.  Here are some of the things…being directed by our “out-of-towner” member!  The old bellows camera on the tripod was brought in by one of the volunteers. On the top shelf is a Bell & Howell movie camera […]
