Somerville, NJ – Just Beautiful

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Somerville, the Capital of Somerset County in New Jersey, is just a beautiful town!

Al Ojeda carries a camera wherever he goes… Recently, on a gorgeous day, he went to Somerville to check an Antique Shop (he loves looking at the variety of items you can find in this type of shops) but, it was early and it wasn’t open yet, so he looked around and he was like: “this is such a nice town, maybe I should start shooting my Fujifilm X100″… Here are some of the pics he came out with…

Photography and Symmetry

Symmetry, generally gives an imprecise sense of harmonious or aesthetically pleasing proportionality and balance.

Symmetry in photography, is a widely used technique. You can make attractive images. You can go for a perfect symmetry or add an element/detail that breaks it.

In the first photo, the Louvre Museum was taken from inside the Pyramide.

The last photo with the Tour Eiffel was taken from the “Peace Monumet” that was standig across the Champ the Mars.

Pictures taken by Al Ojeda on a visit to Paris, what a wonderful city! A photographer’s paradise… Great food too…

My First Wedding with a Fujifilm X100

I decided to experiment on a recent wedding on how a Fujifilm X100 camera would work as a 3rd camera option. Very happy with the results, here are some of my thoughts and photos.

fujifilmX100

"Al Ojeda Photography - New Jersey Wedding Photographers - David's Country Inn wedding photos"The Fujifilm X100 is a great camera, it’s not a point and shot camera, it requires a well trained/skilled/professional to get the best out of its features.

Pros and Cons:

  • Slow Focus: watch out, be patient, don’t expect the shot to come out as quick as in a professional DSRL camera.
  • Fix Lens: It weights less, you see what you get, go straight to composing mode and take advantage of an excellent sharp lens.
  • Manual or Auto: In Manual, you can have complete control, in Auto you can use either aperture or shutter priority or go completely Auto letting the camera select the proper aperture or shutter settings for a correct exposure.
  • ISO: Almost noiseless at high ISO.

You need to know about film, mastering aperture, shutter speed and ISO, how to combine the 3 of them in order to get the “Photo”.

The camera reminds me a little bit of a large 4×5 format camera with the versatility of a 35mm and the enjoyment of having all those features in a digital technology.

Remember: cameras don’t take pictures, lenses don’t take pictures either, people do.
