Mike-Hope New Site on VSCO

April 25, 2015April 25, 2015Mike Hope Leave a comment

Hi all, take a look at this new site from VSCO I have posted some fun pics from my cell phone processed with VSCO film filters to give them that old film look. VSCO FILM actually makes professional filters for Lightroom “The gold standard of digital film emulation for Adobe Lightroom & Adobe Camera Raw.” which I still have to try!! I have downloaded a free pack so I will let you know… I have also started a b&w upload and beach journal of a different take on the beach… It’s fun and it’s free. So if yo have an iPhone or android and enjoy photography you should really give it a go…

Hi All,

Took this by the Manhattan Beach Pier last weekend. I was on a bike ride with my new Canon 6D (Gotta Luv it!!) and 24-105mm L series. Wow what a difference a full frame makes!! I was absolutely blown away with the depth of color and clarity!! I am really happy with the camera and am going to be experimenting with the different functions and lenses. Course it’s a whole different game now and I really have to save the pennies for those Canon lenses. Have to try some of the off market and bargains just for the fun of it. Just got the very reasonable 40mm Pancake and havn’t tried it yet. Better for street and portraits, so they say!! I will update you when I have a chance to try it out!!

Thanks again for taking a look and let me know what you think of the photo!!

Redondo Beach Home Sales – August 2013

August 28, 2013August 28, 2013Mike Hope Leave a comment

Hi All,

On a serious note:-))

Here are the Redondo Beach Home Sales in our area for August, 2013. The trend was upward with some increase in the selling price and a greater volume over the previous month. There are some signs however, that the market is slowing as the upward trend on interest rates puts pressure on home loans.

Still, we are seeing a healthy improvement over previous months!!

For more information about Redondo Beach Homes for sale or local trends on Redondo Beach Realestate check out Cecily Lee’s website @ cecilylee.com or call Cecily Lee on 310-376-5673.

Hi All,

I thought you might enjoy some photos I took at the Kubrick exhibition, LACMA, in Los Angeles. These were all taken with the Canon EOS-M, hand held, at the Kubrick exhibition LACMA Museum in Los Angeles. These were all low light no flash, using 22mm f/2 prime. So far I have not been able to do this with the SLR. And so portable too. Don’t even know you have it with you!! Hope you like the slide show:-)
