…is the Norwegian day.
The day when all the norwegians dress up and look fancy.
This year though, we also had rain and snow.
Luckily for me…i was off to Oysteins/Thones house for breakfast. What was supposed to be a breakfast went on till 12am in the night…good times.
I had bought a roll of Delta 3200 some time back…and seeing the weather outside…i thought it was good time to use it. But the OM1 and OM2 dont like 3200…they have a limit of 1600…so me being smart…though i could load the OM2 with the 3200 set it to 1600 and set the Exposure Compensation to -1. But no…once u set the ASA to 1600…you cannot turn the EC dial.
BUT I AM SUPER SMART…not really…
I used the OM1 and manually underexposed all the frames by 1 stop…hardcore huh. Not really…i want the Nikon FM.
Anyways…the adventure does not end there…goto to the bustop and took few frames…for some reason the metering seemed strange…but i ignored it…got on the bus and saw that i had not turned on the camera. I am used to the 30d which i never turned off.
Rest of the day was standard…eating drinking taking pictures meeting people.
Ok there was one more issue…for some strange reason…the horizon on quite a few frames are zoinked…no its not the booz…if u see the previous post…i tend to shoot better when intoxicated.
The table was set for breakfast
Lazy cat
