Joel Dinda's photos with the keyword: storage

Most days, I pass this farm--more than a "family farm," but less than a large corporate enterprise--on my way to work.

Yesterday's black & white , in color. Davis obviously needed a place to store stuff away from the cities where they actually build things. They don't employ a lot of people in our town, but the yard's always full of (sometimes large) equipment and an assortment of construction supplies. It's pretty impressive. This photo taken from Mulliken Road, just south of M-43. As I've mentioned once or twice before, I've been shooting black & white dailies with my Nikon cameras only to have my software ignore the b/w flag in the NEF (RAW) file. So (in general) my processing workflow includes a step to return the pictures to my original monochrome intent. But, occasionally, the color version's worth saving....

I wandered around town last February 5, mostly taking unsatisfactory photographs of things I'd capture better some other day. Some days I'm just an uninspired photographer. Davis Construction built (land-filled) a little storage area and stacked a bunch of beams near Mulliken Road a couple years back. Apparently they've found a use for these, since they're now gone.... This pic's not as sharp as I'd like, but is the best of the day's outtakes. All the day's pictures were shaky.... ========== On the whole the Droid Bionic's camera app's decent, and well-designed, but unexceptional. The photographer's got about as much control as with any compact camera, and the touchscreen's an acceptable interface for changing settings. But the screen's not so good as a shutter release. The hardware, on the other hand, is problematical. I'll discuss that a bit later. One thing learned during the previous day's experiments was that the Bionic's camera app had a bug. If you set the camera to Black and White, then changed other settings, the software'd forget about the B&W setting unless you intentionally reset it. Looks like that bug's since been fixed, since I can't reproduce it today. ========== This photograph is an outtake from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps .
