I just uploaded this one to flickr. A picture taken of a Clapper Board for the Full Metal Jacket Movie on show at the Stanley Kubrick exhibit at the LACMA LA. It was taken hand held with the Canon EOS-M 22mm with a 40% crop of the original.Thanks for stopping by to take a look.

Hi All,
I took this with the Canon EOS-M 22mm hand held outside the Stanley Kubrick exhibit at the LACMA and then gave it a little grunge/street work in post. Still playing with the Canon EOS-M and am about to get a vintage 50mm f/1.4 to try out!! I will post some more when I have given it a try. Thanks for taking a look,

This picture I took of a mock up set of one of the final scenes from the 2001 Space Oddessy movie. It was a set that was up high in the exhibition hall in dark surroundings. I took this with the hand held Canon EOS-M with the 22mm lens. I think it is quite effective and gives a feel of real size space and time. Maybe the idea. It’s not what you see, it’s what you think you see!!

This old coke can keeps coming back on me, so I took it back into lightroom and reworked it a little in black and white. Now I think it has a little more depth…maybe!! what do you think??
Lou E Luey’s on the Boardwalk, Redondo Beach. This was the old banquet hall. Now closed. Took this last weekend with the Fujifilm X20 and post grunge HDR effect. UPDATE: Sold the Fuji X-20 for Canon EOS-M really like it! Interchangeable lenses and now faster with the firmware update. I am eyeing the Fujifilm XM-1 though as you can see from my last post
