family morning at the park | photodump 02

P did not sleep well last night. He was up until midnight and then only did 2 hour naps until morning. So we had a late start to the day. Nevertheless, we went to the park for a bit and I thought I’d dig out my Canon M100 for today’s shutter therapy.

In 01 | Shutter Therapy I was using my “big camera” the OM Digital Solutions EM1 Mark II with the 25 mm F1.8 lens. I love my Olympus but that thing is honestly bulky when you are already packing 2 kids and a diaper bag.

Enter the Canon M100. This is not the newest model but honestly I am always blown away by the quality of the images that come out of this thing. It’s small, it’s sharp and it’s perfect as an everyday small camera to chuck in your bag.

Here are some frames from today:

I wanted to play around with the frame sizes and post-processing in the photos. I almost always edit and post in a 4x3 format but I wanted to explore a horizontal, movie like frame size. So these are 16x9 horizontal frames.

With the edits I also almost always go for a light and airy vibe but I wanted to play around with some different vibes. Wasn’t going for moody but movie like (kinda turned out moody).


I’m happy with today’s experimentation!
