When the fam and I were in Ocean City last weekend, I met a guy named Kevin who owned this sweet GTO. With a surf board strapped to the top I had to get some snaps of his ride.

He was nice enough to let me grab a few shots. I wish I would’ve taken better compositions and had a used a wider lens perhaps but I was glad to just get a few cool photos.

DAZZ Camera App:

I don’t always have my cameras with me. My other problem is that I don’t always know which camera to take with me wherever I go. My main camera is a Canon R6. I also have a Canon 70D and a 7D. My main film camera is a Canon AE-1. I have a Canon Elan and a Nikon N80 as backups because I like to use different film speeds.

I know some photographers who like either digital photography or just film photography. I love both and when I see subjects on the street or in different environments I see the need for both film and digital images depending on how I desire to create the image.

I discovered DAZZ about 6 or7 months ago. It’s an app. I wish I could say that I took these photos with the perfect knowledge of exposure and shutter speed, but I simply composed the image and pressed the button on my phone. These images look great until you look at them up close and tell how unnatural the grain looks. I purposely over exposed the images to give it that vintage look. I also ran the images through Lightroom for further editing if needed. Overall I think the images look pretty sweet and the app is really fun to use. There are many camera options.

They say that the best camera is the one that you have with you.
