[Tip 194: Did you know ?]

Despite the very expensive price and quality of the Leica camera, they forget something really important on the M8.

Every sensor has an infrared filter on the sensor because the sensor component can react to that infrared light and create a magenta tint on the photos.

And yes, Leica forgot to put one on their M8 camera sensor. Oups 🙊

[Tip 193: Personal Introspection]

More and more I stop myself from getting my phone out of my pocket and photograph the same thing as everybody else. Can be a famous place in nature, sculpture, house, whatever.

The reason is that the world right now is completely overwhelmed of slightly different pictures of the same things, over and over, and I don’t want to participate in this.

In this short article I will explain all the different ways of structuring a Python application, from a quick script to a more complex web application.

Single python file containing all the code

That’s okay for code without dependencies or using a virtual environment. This is generally used for a quick script that doesn’t need complexity in its file structure.

my-single-file-project/
├── .gitignore
├── helloworld.py
├── test.py
├── pyproject.toml
├── LICENSE
└── README.md

Example of the helloworld.py :

#!/usr/bin/env python
# helloworld.py

from datetime import datetime

def do_hello():
    print(f"Hello, today is {datetime.now().date()}")

if __name__ == '__main__':
    do_hello()

[Tip 192: Post Processing Hint]

Tools in photoshop to edit monochrome picture :

• « Mix of color » to tweak independently each level of grey in the picture
• « Contrast » tool to add grey density uniformly to you b&w
• « Accentuate » add clearness to the picture
• « Add white » to just the luminosity without touching the density of greys
• « Add black » to make the black stronger and give more character to the picture.

[Tip 191: Custom Filter]

What do I mean by custom filters ?

Well, it’s those filters you can basically create on your own. Take a piece of plastic paper, mirror or colored transparent paper and put it in front of your lens to create some gloomy moody picture !

LensBaby are surfing on this wave by selling a product called OMNI that is a lens filter with built in custom filter you can move and place wherever you want in front of your lens !

Get creative !
