Rediscovering Detroit – Take Two – Djangophonique

Today I bring you the musical stylings of Djangophonique — a “a musical project born out of reverence for the Parisian Jazz Manouche style that was made popular by the legendary Sinti guitarist Django Reinhardt and his Quintette du Hot Club de France”.

Rediscovering Detroit – Take One

Shite’s getting real – I’m actually getting out to live music shows in the Detroit area again. With camera phone in tow. Consider yourself warned. Shot on Google Pixel 3, ƒ/1.8, 1/158, 4.44mm, ISO54, black and white filter.

Capri – An Alternate View – Take Nine

Staircase! Because, it’s a staircase! And staircases are cool! Of course, with my usual weird asymmetrical symmetrical thingyjobby. (I don’t have a very good reason for why I do this — it’s a tick.) Shot on iPhone 8, ƒ/1.8, 1/147, 3.99mm, ISO20, black and white filter.

Capri – An Alternate View – Take Eight

So much of my black and white photography focuses on the blacks – so when we stumbled on this very white church in Anacapri, I figured it was time to mix it up a bit. Shot on iPhone 8, ƒ/1.8, 1/2088, 3.99mm, ISO20, black and white filter.

Capri – An Alternate View – Take Seven

One of my first obsessions when I started learning more about photography – windows. Followed closely by grates, fences, and columns — pretty much anything with repeating lines and shapes. Capri did not disappoint. Shot on iPhone 8, ƒ/1.8, 1/432, 3.99mm, ISO20, black and white filter.

Capri – An Alternate View – Take Six

One of my early experiments in street photography (which I’ve only gotten into in recent years), courtesy my traveling companion. And a different view of Take Five of this series. Shot on iPhone 8, ƒ/1.8, 1/120, 3.99mm, ISO40, black and white filter.

Capri – An Alternate View – Take Five

You know you’re about to enter a restaurant or shop on the Amalfi Coast when this is your view of the sky. I have to admit, I totally digged the brambly motif and couldn’t help but take numerous version of this shot, wherever we roamed. Shot on iPhone 8, ƒ/1.8, 1/666, 3.99mm, ISO20.

Capri – An Alternate View – Take Four

A short girl’s perspective on the ferry to Capri. Shot on iPhone 8, ƒ/1.8, 1/2088, 3.99mm, ISO20.

Capri – An Alternate View – Take Three

Pro tip: when waiting in line for a ferry, camera in tow, it pays to look up. Shot on iPhone 8, ƒ/1.8, 1/813, 3.99mm, ISO20, black and white filter
