The kids are alright.

Hi folks, long time isn't it? I know it's been a while since the last post but I had to enjoy the 'summer'.
Anyway, I've been shooting hard for the past month and editing in my London collection of photographs, hopefully my portfolio will be up to date really soon.
In the mean time you can have a look to couple of shots I took around Farringdon area in London.

This is a post dedicated to either Barcelona or Lightroom lovers.
I've been looking to my last shoots at the city for a while and I guess, after almost 3 years living in London I still in love with that place...

I've decided to create a preset based on that pictures  called 'Barcelona preset' and inspired in the city itself. Probably for many people Barcelona can be trendy, modern, cultural, techy, touristic... but, I guess for me it's now just a memory of the good times I had there and, this is what I've basically tried to get with this preset.

Download it by cliking here, install it, use it, enjoy it and remenber to play with the levels once applied. Hope you like it!

PS: this should be the first preset of a collection dedicated to different places/experiences that have inspired myselfat any point. More to come really soon.

If you've seen my recent photos from Lugo I guess you've probably realized they have been taken with a film camera. The camera itself was the awesome Olympus Trip 35. 
Is not just about how good looking this camera can be, it's also the building and  lens quality and how portable it is. Believe me, it's really difficult to take a bad photo with this tool. 
I could spend lots of time speaking about its boundaries but we can go deeper in upcoming posts.  

With all my love for the 50's, 60's and 70's product design, and after the good experience with the Trip 35, I've recently decided add a new member to my camera collection, the Olympus Pen EE.
Leaving aside the fact of its really cool design, one of its main features is the the capability of take double number of photos than a 'common' camera. Let's say that for every 'regular' 35 mm frame, the Pen can shoot 2 frames with a result of 72 photos for every 36p film roll.
This compromises a funny thing; basically when you support the camera in a usual landscape position, you're actually taking a portrait photo, funny, isn't it?

The not really funny thing was that camera shutter didn't work. So I opted to go for surgery. I took my screwdrivers pack and after 3 hours, some new drivers and a couple of glasses of wine, the camera was in perfect working order.

First roll is actually inside, hopefully soon we'll see some results.
