Can I draw in Lightroom? There is no pencil, pen or brush tool. But there are gradient filters in there. You can paint with color and light. More precisely, it is convenient to color the finished drawing. And ready-made drawings are everywhere, and on the asphalt too. SONY A7М2 #photo-bambuk

Have you seen the gladiatorial amphitheater? Have you seen an open-air theater? If not, I'll show you. Here is one of them. Ancient, of course. It is located on the territory of Sevastopol in the Tauric Chersonesos. #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
Russian snack. There are no hot dishes. All this and much more I ate yesterday, when a big family gathered at the table. This, of course, is not the most important thing at the party, but it's nice when you can not only talk to mentally, but also to eat. #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
Sometimes the beautiful facade hid the courtyards of varying degrees of beauty. I will not show bad courtyards. I love to look for different locations of the city that do not show on business cards for tourists. The same applies to people. For beautiful clothes and cosmetics, another person hides. You will not know what he really is, if you do not start learning his personality. #photo-bambuk #Travel
For St. Petersburg, this is the usual weather. It rains here more often than the sun shines. Sometimes it happens at the same time. And I love the rain and I love taking pictures in the rain. BUT, of course, it's more pleasant to sit with a cup of hot coffee and admire the rain under the roof ... yes, sometimes the roof is leaky :) #photo-bambuk
Petersburg from the tram window. Do you want to ride a tram? Go :) Sometimes you get unexpected effects in the photo. Maybe such photos "on the go" do not have great artistic value, but they are unique and inimitable. You cannot repeat any of these pictures. Even if you go back a couple of stops and go again. #photo-bambuk
Meet the first photo, this is me. Not a self-portrait, of course, I don't know how to draw so gorgeous. My granddaughter drew it. The other two are birthday gifts from granddaughters. Now they paint more professionally. And in general, they are great artists and well done :) #photo-bambuk #МоиФото
The photo shows the spring of last year. Yes, there is still snow in the forest now, but in a week it will not be there if the temperature is above freezing. At first, I didn't want to part with the winter. This year we had it real, with snow and frost. But now I already want to see the earth and young grass. Play with frogs and butterflies. Photographing ants and spiders and much more. I understand that this will happen in due time. But I already want it right now.…
I bought myself another new toy yesterday. This is a film camera lens that has been redesigned to fit the NEX or E socket. It has strong vignetting in the corners. But if you take a crop photo, then the picture is excellent. Instead of the native 22mm focal length, this is about 35mm (slightly wider). These shots are just test shots. Lens brand OKS1-22-1 from LOMO factory #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
Lighting from chandeliers is not the most desirable for the photographer. But on this day, going on a visit, I forgot the flash at home. But on the other hand, I had one of my new toys with me - the Helios-40-2 lens. In the end, I have to test it in different conditions and in difficult ones too. Incidentally, the kick was made by me about 4 years ago and was presented to her granddaughter's birthday. It's nice to see him on the granddaughter's desk safe and sound. And of…
These are two photographs of the same building in St. Petersburg, Russia. You can imagine a castle from a fairy tale. Who lives in this castle? Probably wizards should live there. This is actually the case. How else can you call people who are engaged in electrical engineering? In fact, no one knows what an electric current is. More precisely, everyone thinks that everyone knows, but it is not. What happens when you push the switch button? What electrons, where did they run?…
Sevastopol. These two places are 20 minutes walk from each other. Feel the difference, as they say. A coast, chained in granite and a wild coast, as it was 100 and 300 years ago. Or maybe always. To be honest, I am more attracted to the wild coast. Yes, they do not serve soft drinks and ice cream in the heat. It's really hot in there. But I like it there better. #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
We go down from the park to the continuation of the embankment. On the water, stands a monument to the scuttled ships. I will specifically clarify, not sunken, but submerged. It was installed in memory of the sinking of Russian ships that blocked the allied squadron from accessing the Sevastopol raid during the 1st defense of Sevastopol (1854-1855). Sevastopol 2020 august @photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
I tested my new toy today. It is called the OKS 1-24-1 lens. It is a film camera lens that is adapted for a still camera (NEX). And at the same time I tried another tool. This is a stitching of a panorama from several separate images (1 photo). Thanks to my friend @oldmans here who told me about this tool in Lightroom (here is one of the useful features of our platform, we can learn from each other). All pictures were taken an hour ago near my house. @photo-bambuk
The hero of all photos is burdock. As a child, we loved to throw his spiky balls at each other. The girls suffered the most if such a ball got into their hair. And they also made animal figurines from such balls. But in fact, the protagonist of these photos is my homemade lens. It is made from a slidescope lens with plastic plumbing pipes. I understand it sounds rough ... but I like the result :) #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
TALON1: 2.9 / 85 - Bamboo-2 (B-2) B-2 - that's how I named my homemade product. The original lens was a TALON1: 2.9 / 85 lens from some old slide projector .. The lens consists of a threaded tube (helicoid) and two lenses inside. I adjusted the diameter of the lens to the diameter of the plastic plumbing pipe. The pipe moving along the pipe made it possible to change the focal length. The length of the pipe was selected empirically. The plastic pipe is mounted on a 4 mm…
Lens Triplet-5 / modification Here's another homemade lens. I also made it from a projector lens and two water pipes inserted into each other. They differ in focal length and this lens has no aperture. The fact is that when I shot the burdock, I had both of these lenses with me. Lightroom does not detect the type of lens and I could be mistaken when saying which photo was taken with which lens. I apologize. Maybe it wasn't B-2, but Triplet-5. But that doesn't change the…
If you are used to driving a car on perfectly flat asphalt (does this happen?), Then try this. There are no roads, there are directions of movement. Look at this forest road from the cockpit of a Russian UAZ. My main objective was not to drop the camera out of the hands of the shooting time :) #photo-bambuk
This lion, brilliantly worked out in detail, lives in the Central Park of St. Petersburg. There are a lot of lions in our city. They are of different color, different sizes and each has its own character. This lion is one of my favorites. I see in him really the king of beasts. The last lion with wings arrived from China to the city of Pushkin. He evokes completely different emotions in me with all due respect to the Chinese tradition. #photo-bambuk
There is a mood when you want to sit in such a carriage with a green lamp on the table, order a glass of tea in a copper cup holder and not think about anything. Just listen to the sound of the wheels. It doesn't matter at which station your journey ends.
There are lakes with crystal clear souls. I want to dive into their waters and wash my soul. This is Lake Svetloye in Ruskeale. It is located a little away from the tourist noise. It seems bottomless. Maybe it is and it is... #photo-bambuk
My submarine suddenly surfaced. I had to lower the gear and ordered a tractor that pull me along the shore. At the same time, wonderful April views of the Baltic Sea were visible in the porthole. #photo-bambuk
The same bathyscaphe. Oh sorry, still the same submarine on wheels, I cropped it to a 2: 1 aspect ratio. I like this format of widescreen cinema. #photo-bambuk
The two pictures with the same location, but with different lenses. In the first case, a lens with a focal length of 85 mm (Helios-40-2). Second shot with 22mm lens (OKS 1-22-1) #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
In the morning I heard the sea breathing. The inhalation and exhalation were accompanied by a crackling of ice. Looking at these photos, you can think about the first autumn frosts. And this is happening now, in April. #photo-bambuk #Photography
I want to swim in the morning summer sun. When the air is clean and cool, the river is still shrouded in sleepy fog. But the toilers of the bee are already getting ready to fly. We all love honey, but someone has to make it. #photo-bambuk
Autumn morning 2019. Fog and dew. Invigorating air freshness. In such places you feel the unity with nature. #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
This kid with a stroller is now almost 40 years old. The girl in the stroller is preparing to become a mother for the second time. How time flies ... This picture of their children, I did film camera and now scanned with the unpretentious Chinese scanner. @photo-bambuk
Another family photo. The boy grew up a little. This is the one that will soon be 40 years old. His grandfather with a dog is also here. We came to visit in the summer. #photo-bambuk
Once this field was a pine forest, there were many mushrooms and berries. The forest was cut down and uprooted, and a field was made. Then they stopped processing this field. Now the forest is being restored again. On the one hand, I feel sorry for the work of people and the efforts and resources invested. But I rejoice in the power of the forest. These are my native forests, my childhood passed here. #photo-bambuk
Last time I showed you a field that is gradually becoming a forest. Thanks for the comments received. I am pleased that there are people who are on the same wavelength with me. Now I will show some photos of the pine forest, which is located across the street from this field. Such a forest could be on the site of this field now. So it will be in 20-30 years. #photo-bambuk
Spring 4 years ago. Russia, Trerskaya region. I would like to visit there now. Pine forests and surprisingly sweet air are all around. Especially in the spring. #photo-bambuk
Today I tried to apply a new format and new processing to a photo in Lightroom. The result is such a medallion. The source file is attached. I would be grateful for your feedback: how does it look, how attractive is it? #photo-bambuk
Another experiment. Lay the egg on its side. I think the location of the oval will depend on the plot. When there is a horizon, it is more profitable to lay the oval on its side. When there are vertical lines in the frame, set it vertically. Processed in Lightroom I did not crop the frame for clarity and comparison with the original. But you can also crop it to fit the frame. #photo-bambuk
I used to actively cut wood. A lot of shavings and sawdust were made by my hands and tools. Now my interest has shifted to photography, but sometimes I pick up knives and chisels. Once I was ordered a bas-relief based on the painting by Konstantin Vasiliev "The Northern Eagle". Today I accidentally opened this folder ... #photo-bambuk
Two sides of the same coin. Our world is dual. We think so. It's just that it's so convenient for us to separate and compare everything. In fact, the world is one and indivisible. How one and indivisible man is. No wonder. We are a reflection of the world. The world is a reflection of us. What's above is below You can study the brain or kidney function separately. But neither the brain nor the kidney live separately from the body. The oriental approach to medicine is more…
Would you like to start your day with sauerkraut and pickled tomatoes? Good day, NoiseCash! #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
This griffin was too far away from me. On the other side of the river, at the corner of the roof, about a 9-storey building. This is a modern home. I liked the griffin #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
Chinese palace in the city of Pushkin. More precisely, what is left of him. But this is a 2017 photo. Maybe it has already been restored? I doubt it. #photo-bambuk
My new friend. A 100mm lens made from a film camera lens. First test. Night is not the easiest time for a lens. But my friend did it. Interesting lighting effects. I will investigate it further. Good night to all of you :-) @photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
Manual shooting mode gives the greatest opportunity for creative fotografiy.Pomimo other things, it's just interesting #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
What are you ready for? To be active and mobile or to indulge in the sun's rays serenely? Today on the shore of the Gulf of Finland. #photo-bambuk
Are you sure you need to come in here? Ты уверен, что тебе сюда надо войти? #photo-bambuk
Life goes on Yesterday we got to the coast of the Gulf of Finland. It's not summer yet, of course. But how can this stop people after winter? :-)) #photo-bambuk
This is Ruskeala Russia. Previously, marble was mined in these places. Now tourists mined here photos and impressions. #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
We have already forgotten about winter. We live in spring and wait for summer. And I remember how it was ... :) #photo-bambuka
Treat everyone before bed ... good night friends. Let you dream about these buns from Ruskeala. They are delicious. With a dream, you can try them))) #photo-bambuka
I alone see a portrait of a warrior on this marble wall? I had to enhance the impression a little with shades, but I did not add a single line. Everything is created by nature. #photo-bambuk
Nikitsky Botanical Garden. There is everything here to hide from the heat of the day and the scorching rays of the sun. Shadow and water. And if you're lucky, then a light breeze from the sea. @photo-bambuk
I have already published some of the drawings on the asphalt, but I don’t remember exactly what. Now I found this folder and decided to just share it. There was gray asphalt with wet black cracks. We can say that life is gray, damp and cracked. Or you can take paints and brushes and make something more attractive out of your life. Your life is in your hands and no one is going to paint it for you. #photo-bambuk
What emotions do you have when you hear the word SWAMP? I'm pretty sure most people associate swamp with something unpleasant. It all depends on the life experience of people. Many have only read or heard about the swamps, but have never been there. I will show you one of my favorite swamps. Yes, I love swamps. There will be a series of posts on this topic and you can understand why I love them.
This is the same swamp I just wrote about (see the previous post). The western edge of the bog ends with a lake. This is Rybachye Lake. Local residents call him Okunev. I managed to catch only perches and no other fish in it. Sometimes the fishing lasted until the night and I saw the sunsets. Sunsets on the lake and sunsets in the swamp. #photo=bambuk
This is the same lake in the same swamp. I continue to show you the beauty of this place. It's even the same evening and the same sunset :) Unfortunately, I didn't have a tripod with me. All these shots are hand-made. #photo-bambuk
And it was evening. And it was morning. I continue to show you the already familiar swamp and Rybachye Lake. On this day, I came to the lake and the swamp early, but actually late. I missed the beginning of dawn. We need to set the alarm ... :) #photo-bambuk
The lake and the swamp are very organically combined. A very pleasant path runs along the edge of this swamp along the lake. Without going into the swamp itself, you can taste blueberries, cloudberries, cranberries. You can fish almost from the trail. This is only a small perch, but the process itself is very interesting. The fish takes from the very shore and your rod should be very short. #photo-bambuk
Perhaps we need to take a break from the swamp. Went to the store today for sensor mops and brought a yellow lens filter with me. Previously, except for neutral gray, I did not use filters. And here is a couple of starlings on the grass. Filmed with a yellow filter. Photo without color processing. Young grass is already breaking through. And how these starlings sing in the evenings on the bare branches of trees ... Like nightingales. By the way, not all branches are…
After the swamp and the dull (still) meadow, I wanted summer colors, honey aromas, the hum of bumblebees ... Why not, the entrance to the archives is always open for this. True, it is not always possible to find exactly what you need. But if you try ... #photo-bambuk
Today is a little MACRO. These small worlds were raised by me from the beaches of different seas. There is always something that catches your eye on the seashore. And if you look more closely ... #photo-bambuk
Were at the opera today. We watched Don Quixote. I looked through the eyepieces of the objective, of course. The voices are amazing. However ... it's time to sleep, three in the morning ... ^) #photo-bambuk
The trip to the opera began with a walk along the canals of St. Petersburg. It was already getting dark, but there was still enough light for regular photography. We walk along the Griboyedov Canal to the Mariinsky Theater. #photo-bambuk
Dead night. However, not so deaf, but it's time to sleep. When, due to the increase in ISO, too much zarn appears in the photo, do not rush to throw it into the trash. You can still work with him :) #photo-bambuk
Lion bridge with doves on the head of the king of beasts. This is somewhere out there he is a king, and here the pigeons can afford everything. #photo-bambuk
The same lions, but a different angle and a different time. First I removed the grain ... and then I returned it. What do you tell me? Which one do you like more? #photo-bambuk
Let's move from the stone jungle to nature. After winter, you want warm colors and warm days. This is a warm sunset on Lake Nakhimovskoye #photo=bambuk
In the early morning, insects are in a sleepy daze. This is the only time I can get close to them with my macro lens. During the day they become very active, and in the evening that's not enough light ... and power, too. #photo-bambuk
It's time to get back to the swamp. We have already visited the opera, we took a walk around the city. How do you like such a gentle sunset? The reflections of the sky in the water were not very clear. In the last photo I did a somersault and the reflection became the sky. #pho to-bambuk
Swamp dwellers. I do not know what they were doing here in this place of butterflies in such numbers. This is a rather rare occurrence in our country. Maybe they had a carnival or wedding time? But it was funny #photo-bambuk
I want greenery and that's it. And to keep it warm. And to the forest. And so that the birds sang and the bees buzzed with bumblebees. Striped wasps do not offer, ticks, too. Butterflies and dragonflies can be :) #photo-bambuk
Simple wildflowers. Yes, those that grow in gardens and on windowsills can look brighter, smell stronger. But when I see ordinary wildflowers, I forget about others. #photo-bambuk
I don’t know how it happened, but I noticed these two riders on horseback too late. After Don Quixote with his skinny horse, these horses looked plump :) But the most interesting thing here is the work of the lens with light. This lens is taken from a film camera and has a specific design. A colored halo appears around any light source. The halo shape is not necessarily round. These are random and not very good pictures. I'll have to go on a night hunt in the city center and…
Ordinary street lights turn into ... pure light. This is not a photo of lanterns, this is a photo of their light. A few more photos with a lens from the cinema. #photo-bambuk
This lens selects light from the whole picture of the world. A modern cool lens will show you a clear picture with all the details. Even the scraps of paper on the sidewalk. But who cares about scraps of paper ... :-)) #photo-bambuk
Good night or good morning. Our land is wide, some fall asleep, others wake up. And we meet here and we start to make noise #photo-bambuk
- Well, it's time to make some noise? - Tell me, friend, did the members of the orchestra come together? #photo-bambuk
The same lake. But it looks different every time. I love all of his masks. By the way, fishing is good there. #photo-bambuk
The sun went to sleep. It's time to follow his example. Good night noisy people #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
I recalled my meeting with Kronstadt. I remembered my young years. 25 years of service on a warship ... it was in a past life #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
I decided to drive evil spirits out of my house. Yesterday in the garage I ended the day by making this ritual Slavic mask. If I'm not mistaken, such masks were used for Christmas week. The mask is made from a cut of bird cherry and covered with ebony stain. #photo-bambuk
Where is this fisherman rowing? I think he's floating home. The fish has gone to sleep, the sun has just fallen asleep. Maybe it's time for us too? #photo-bambuk #PhotographersOnNoiseCash
One old mask of mine. Made it from a piece of eucalyptus stump. Today I tried to shoot it with a Helios 40-2 lens with a macro ring. I liked the result. Tomorrow I will be in the forest and will definitely try to shoot in this mode there. So ... maybe we won't see you tomorrow. #photo-bambuk
