Tiffen 49GG1 49mm Glimmer Glass 1 Filter

Product Information

While it’s softening what’s in front of you by lowering contrast, adding haze, and theoretically nerfing clarity, it’s also boosting the image quality. Because Tiffen Glimmer Glass has these sparkles on the front of the lens, they add little specular highlights. And for anyone too young in their photographic journey to understand, let us explain. The production is generously sponsored by Elizabeth M. and Jean-Marie R. Eveillard and Jacqueline B. Mars. In 2012, the festival featured Verdi's Aida, Lully's Armide, Kurt Weill's Lost in the Stars and the musical The Music Man. [15] Armide was presented in collaboration with Opera Atelier of Toronto, Canada, and Lost in the Stars presented in collaboration with Cape Town Opera of South Africa.

Waleson, Heidi (August 16, 2017). "The New Faces of Opera". Wall Street Journal. ISSN 0099-9660 . Retrieved October 28, 2020. The Young American Artists program, established in 1988, brings singers in the first stages of their professional careers to study and perform at Glimmerglass. These young artists are chosen annually from hundreds of applicants from throughout the United States. In addition to rehearsing and performing, Young Artists receive musical coaching, attend classes in diction and acting, and are given instruction in such non-performing skills as audition techniques, role preparation, and the business aspects of managing a career. Administrators from many of the world's leading opera houses visit Glimmerglass throughout the summer and hear the Young Artists in performance. In the course of the summer each Young Artist gives a solo song recital at venues in Cooperstown and nearby Cherry Valley, a feature of the Glimmerglass season that has become extremely popular with opera patrons and the local community. [11] Alice Busch Opera Theater [ edit ]I approach my first season leading this great company full of hopes, aspirations, curiosity, and passion–all feelings shared by the characters whose stories are told so vividly in our 2023 productions,” said Ainsley. “ Romeo and Juliet is a stunning showcase for its two young stars, Rinaldo opens a conversation about how we interpret the complex legacy of the Crusades in the 21st century, Candide and La bohème offer the opportunity for joy and celebration, and our world premiere youth opera, The Rip Van Winkles , is a modern story about connectivity and the impact of technology on our daily lives. We are delighted to present a season that spans the entire history of opera, engaging audiences in the power of story and music as cultural forces with the means to create concrete change.” Looking closely at it the filter looks like a lens’ front element that hasn’t been cleaned in a very long time. These filters are supposed to add a bit of glow to bright parts of the picture, similar to lenses with undercorrected spherical aberration. Many of the older fast Leica lenses are famous for this effect. The production will feature members of the Glimmerglass Young Artists Program, local youth performers, and members of The Glimmerglass Festival Children’s Chorus.

Until 2011, the company operated under the name Glimmerglass Opera. The company presented its first season in the summer of 1975, when four performances of La bohème were staged in the auditorium of the Cooperstown High School. In the years since, it has grown considerably and now offers more than 40 performances of four operas, nearly always in new productions, each summer. I don’t know how the digital Otron effect is implemented in different software solutions, but one way to make it effective only in/around bright areas of the image is to make a copy of the image, overexpose it, blur it, and take a B/W copy of the blurred image as the alpha-channel for blending with the original image. Strength and sensitivity of the effect may then be varied by applying changes to the B/W copy in the alpha-channel. The quality and taste of the whole dish are limited by the worst ingredients. For that reason I would never use a wine for cooking that I would not dare to drink pure. All the photos are shot with the Fujifilm X-T3 + Fujifilm XF 35mm f2.0 R WR on a tripod. Test #1 – Statue at Vestre CemeteryTiffen is indeed a lot better at what it does. No wonder they are quite known in movie scenes. I do have Glimmerglass 2 and it does effect only highlights as well, while retaining sharpness and contrast over all other image parts. The effect is a bit stronger than the glimmer glass 1 that you used. Rinaldo is generously sponsored by Elizabeth M. and Jean-Marie R. Eveillard and Jacqueline B. Mars.
