Julius Koivistoinen: Photoblog and portfolio

“The photo above is one of many images from my today’s trip to the central Helsinki. (Read: A photo gallery containing these shots is under construction.) I restrained myself to use my EOS 350D DSLR and one lens, the new one, only… And oh boy what a combination it was!”
-Autumn is coming

New gallery is up. Enjoy! [Link]

To give you some idea how I managed to keep shooting for approximately two and a half hours in constant rain I posted some pictures of the DIY rain cover I did. See them under the link below. (Fun fact about those pics: Because I don’t have a second camera body the photos are taken through two mirrors.)

DIY rain cover of a plastic bag:

…when you can use a simple sheet of paper as a diffuser? All you need is a rubber band, a small clamp and a sheet of white paper. Everything is easily fit into a single pocket, it is easy to setup and the results are a-m-a-z-i-n-g! Compared to the overall prize at least.

Ok, ok. I’m being cheap, but that’s what do-it-yourself is all about, isn’t it?
