No Tripods Allowed! Enter The Platypod ...

I would not be surprised if people are sick and tired of listening to me, talking about Platypod. The fact is that I have not used or carried a tripod to take pics since 2024; so no more worries about the tripod police telling me that tripods are not allowed. 

Platypod Ultra and Platypod eXtreme have been quite reliable pieces of gear used for my photography or vlogging needs. Platypod is a compact alternative to bulkier and heavier tripods, especially for low angle and travel photography. It works great when used on my DSLR, my GoPro action camera, and my cellphone. In my personal opinion, Platypod Rules. 

Photography Adjustments To Change Things Around

I think that when I am taking pictures of the architecture inside a Cathedral or a Museum using a Platypod, I am doing it all wrong. Most likely I am making the mistake of keeping the architecture background in focus, especially when taking photos of the Cathedral Basilica. Same situation happened when I recently photographed the Tyrannosaurus Rex at the Academy of Natural Sciences museum.  

I am currently using a Sigma 10-20 wideangle zoom lens for these type of images. Maybe I need to keep doing what I am doing for the (BTS - behind the scene image), and work on keeping the final edited image a little less sharp. I guess I'll need to work in the blur and focus later. Obviously, I need to make photography adjustments to change things around.
