Eagle Beach, Aruba (2 and 3)

Here’s a photo from November 2022. A quick snap taken with a Nikon F5 and Nikkor 20mm AF-D lens. Kodak Tri-X 400 film.

It’s one of the photos you grab in the moment. Simply point and press the shutter. Later, you find out what you have. I like this one. It captures the vibe without telling too much. Sometimes… that’s better than megapixel details.

Playa Linda on Palm Beach, Aruba

The sun was going down and I wanted to test the iPhone 6 in that difficult video condition. Being on Palm Beach, Aruba, made it a great place. So here’s it is, showing the Playa Linda timeshare then over to the beach.

The performance on the iPhone 6 was fairly good. Sunset is a difficult challenge for video exposure, especially with limited controls. Either way, we got another look at this part of Aruba.

Eagle Beach, Aruba, iPhone video

I’ve finally given up on using the other app for editing. For camera control it’s a bit better than the built in controls on the iPhone 6. For editing, quirky and unreliable. So here’s a look at Aruba’s Eagle Beach, the part near Amsterdam Manor.

This time of the year, the Caribbean is almost as warm as bath water. Enjoy it!

Arashi Beach, Aruba, iPhone 6, video

Here’s a quick look at Aruba’s Arashi Beach. It’s a small beach, located near the northwest end of the island. As you’ll see in this video, they have barriers set up to mark the turtle egg-laying areas. Check it out:

Still learning the app for the iPhone video. Soon will be able to edit and post direct from the iPhone which will be faster. Might add one of those external lenses just for a change of perspective. Stay tuned.
