San Francisco and Sonoma

09 Jun

This year for the birthday, did a fantastic 2 week trip to San Francisco and Sonoma.  Lots of touristy stuff, lots of wine drinking, and lots of photos… Cameras were the GF1 and a Holga – this was my my first “real” outing with the GF1 and it absolutely lived up to my expectations.  Was able to carry the body with kit lens and 20/1.7 in the corner of my daybag with room for the rest of my assorted junk.  Never missed carrying the big SLR one bit!

Sonoma, Redux

05 Jun

I am quickly becoming a big fan of Northern California. I first went out last year for my birthday, had a blast, drank lots of wine. This was my second trip up to SF/Sonoma – Hung out for a day or two in the city, then drove up to the wine country. Only carried my GF1, but it served me well. (although my buddy who isn’t a photographer himself had an old Hasselblad 503cw from his dad, which we took out for some shots!) Early winter seems the perfect time to go as well – the countryside was a rainbow of reds and yellows… the vine covered hillsides were shockingly bright, especially when viewed from afar – the highly maicured vines created an almost solid carpet of color across the rolling hills.

Lots of pictures, lots of wine… what more could you ask for? (slideshow below)

Shooting with the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III in Sonoma County

14 Jan

From rolling vineyards to redwoods to ocean views, Sonoma County is a stunning place to photograph. For restaurateur and cyclist Remi McManus, it’s also a much-needed escape from the stresses of his day-to-day work. On a recent trip, he brought along the Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III to capture the sights on a ride through the region, getting better acquainted with its beauty (and wines), as well as the scars that remain after the recent wildfires.

Sample images from this video
