The Lansing Photo Cyclist: May 2010
http://lansingphoto.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 27, 2010. Depth of Field: Don't Overdo It! Taken with my Polaroid 110a at f/4.7. For good or bad, shallow depth of field is the attribute of a photograph that typically strikes a viewer as a quality of professional photography. It is also the subject I'm asked most about by lay photographers. I have seen many uses of shallow depth of field when it's inappropriate, and many budding photographers overuse the hell out of it once they figure out what it is, and how to produce it. This past Wedn...

The Lansing Photo Cyclist: October 2011
http://lansingphoto.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 19, 2011. Redwood National and State Parks. We reached the Ranger station at about 12:30 pm near the north border of Jedediah Smith Redwood State Park. The forest itself was impressive, and the scale of the giant trees was heightened by the clearings, and small groves of low-lying clover and sword ferns that blanketed each hillside between the Redwoods.

Tuesday, December 29, 2009. Next on my agenda are to procure a few adapters so I can use my older lenses with the camera. For now, here are some photos from my first set of shots, to give you an idea for the camera's performance. Posted by Vector Einstein. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Lansing Photo Cyclist: July 2010
http://lansingphoto.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 14, 2010. I'm building up quite a few bikes just as I'm ending my tenure as a bike shop employee. I'm through two right now and on to the third, and all of them have my stamp on them for sure - steel-framed bikes that ride fast and smooth, and look clean. My wife's bike is something I've shown before, an '80s Wisconsin-built Trek 560, built originally for road racing but adapted by me with 650b wheels and fast cushy tires for longer tours. She'll be riding it on this year's DALMAC. I adde...

The Lansing Photo Cyclist: The case for wider tires
http://lansingphoto.blogspot.com/2010/06/case-for-wider-tires.html
Tuesday, June 8, 2010. The case for wider tires. Who make steel frames with clearance for wider tires, and cyclocross bikes, which are designed to fit up to 700x35c tires and typically have cantilever brakes. Many older steel bikes did have more clearance for wide tires and fenders, and if you feel like it, a tight frame can get more clearance when converted to the 650b wheel size, which you can read about here. High-end tires like those made by Grand Bois. Posted by Vector Einstein. Thanks so much for t...

Saturday, October 31, 2009. Hope you get more treats than tricks. As for us, we're going on a rumpus tonight! Posted by Vector Einstein. Links to this post. Monday, October 19, 2009. XO" stands for hugs and kisses. I should know better - not long ago I thought to myself that I wouldn't want or need to buy another bike for a while. I was happy with the bikes I had, I decided, and short of spending $1500 on a new bike I didn't think there was anything out there I wanted. Famous last words, of course. In th...

The Lansing Photo Cyclist: Confession + DALMAC
http://lansingphoto.blogspot.com/2010/10/confession-dalmac.html
Friday, October 1, 2010. So I have not updated this blog in a while, for a few reasons really. Firstly, I haven't been taking many photos since I've been so busy. Second, I've been busy because I've graduated, moved away from Lansing to the Detroit area, and begun looking for a job. 1, bring a spare if you're rolling on odd-sized tires, and 2, make sure your tires are in good condition BEFORE you're 70 miles from home! Bring along a spare rear blinky light in case. The Superflash in particular seems ...

The Lansing Photo Cyclist: Ride of Silence
http://lansingphoto.blogspot.com/2010/05/ride-of-silence.html
Sunday, May 23, 2010. This past Wednesday was the annual Ride of Silence in North America. If you're not familiar, the Ride of Silence is a slow group ride to remember those cyclists who have been injured or killed while cycling on public roadways. If you are interested in finding a ride near you for next year, check out this link. I took along my Polaroid SX-70. And took some of the last 600 film I have access to. Posted by Vector Einstein.

The Lansing Photo Cyclist: November 2009
http://lansingphoto.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 8, 2009. Mountain Biking in November! Going out to the local singletrack in November is just a little crazy most years, in that it's freezing, often snowy, and most moderately sane people have given up mountain biking for the year by then. This weekend, with its 70 degree sunny forecast, made the urge to get at least one last ride in irresistable for myself and some friends. We headed out to Anderson Park. Posted by Vector Einstein.
