Still not there

Sawadee Khrap

Just finished my massage and getting ready to go to lunch with Mike.  Still not ready to say I am over the relationship thing – nagging feelings and still difficult to talk or get to know anyone else without comparing.  I suppose this too will pass but like I admitted in another post this is really the first time I actually fell in love – seems kind of stupid at my age but I should have been through this as a teenager – but didn’t come out till a late age and missed all the drama, so I guess I am just living mine now.  Ha Ha.   But it does make it easier to cope by discussing it here – I sure as hell don’t want any of this on Facebook.   I am amazed how much personal crap is posted on FB.

Oh well, just musing, off to lunch and a new day – Charlie from the US is supposed to arrive today and we should make contact tomorrow – that will be nice to see him again.

Testing the A7Rm2

Sawadee Khrap

This morning I went down to Nong Buak Haad Public Park on the southwest corner of the old city and then on to Thapae gate.   I am amazed at the contrast range that the camera can work with.  I shot most of the images in “A” aperture mode, auto ISO (normally about 100 ), single shot – beautiful capture with little or no Lightroom work.

Several were HDR  3 x 5Ev +/- bracketing, continuous hand held shooting, such as the young boy and temple insides which had extreme contrast levels – backlight and/or very dark inside. DSC01721-HDRDSC01839-HDR

All the rest of the images are just hand held shots.  I guess I am getting used to the camera and feel secure in starting my travel trips again – as soon as I find a good traveling companion that is.
