S5 x Prophète Sunset

Starting 2015 by shooting again with my Samsung S5 is not a good sign :)

When is this Canon 5D Mk IV coming again ??

S5 x Major

A few test shots with my Samsung Galaxy S5 phone a few months back that I never posted.

I pretty much never use my phone for taking pictures except the occasional souvenir shot, but I was curious to see how it would come out compared to what I was used to with my previous Galaxy S2. Expectedly so, it's much better. Not today that I'll rely solely on that as my travel/street camera, but still, it can be useful when you don't have anything else at hand and are prepared to work a little bit on the pictures in lightroom.

Stars x Lightroom

Those shots were taken without much preparation in the summer of 2013, during a road trip in the US national parks and canyons, and post-processed in lightroom only today. I usually tend to limit myself to basic retouching in LR on my pics, except for an occasional removal of something ruining an otherwise nice shot, thanks to photoshop's awesome "context aware fill" feature. But I must admit, I feel a little bit like a cheater on those, since the RAW files look nothing like this when imported in the software. Well, I guess it's ok though ? That being said, this makes me want to shoot some more, this time with more preparation and thinking !

Krysta x RX100

Some more pics taken with my friend's compact camera, the RX100, when Krysta visited me.

I know I said that already, but next time I see you, we'll have to shoot more pics :)

RX100 x Paris

Yet some more random shots while testing the RX100 camera, this time in Paris.

Tour Montparnasse.

Métro, Ligne 6.

The Dark Side

I considered using that light for pictures for some time now, but never found the inspiration.

Then the beard solved it all.
