Lonely Drive

By Desi Baytan | Published: January 23, 2014

Shot with an Olympus OM-2n with a Zuiko MC Auto-W 1:2 f=35mm on Fujicolor NPS 160 Pro (ISO set to 80).

When I photograph, subject matter isn’t as important. I go for the feeling which means waiting for the right kind of light. And that’s what I felt when I took this picture. A lone road up ahead, the sun is about to disappear on the horizon and darkness ensue and my thoughts wander back in days of loneliness.

Morning Dew

By Desi Baytan | Published: January 23, 2014

Shot with an Olympus OM-4 with a Zuiko Auto-T 85mm 1:2 on Kodak Portra 160 (set to ISO 80).

Although I love my Zuiko 85mm lens, I hardly use it because it is often for people portraits. But in my walks such as this, I realize that it is also the lens to use to take portraits of things.  You can take portraits of things and places too, right?

Night Noon

By Desi Baytan | Published: January 22, 2014

Shot with a Canon 5D MkII and a Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L.

Lit only with the full moon, these contrasty images were shot at around midnight when the moon was near its highest peak.

Seeing Double

By Desi Baytan | Published: January 9, 2014

Shot with a Canon 5D Mk III, Canon 135mm f/2.0 L, and Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L.

This camera was on loan for a couple of days. So the thing I wanted to do most was the double exposure function that I’ve seen on the web.
