Really like the color, would like to copy the preset. Any suggestions?
Photoshop has a Match Colour tool built in. Look on YouTube for a tutorial, it seems to work pretty well.

#33As a Cambridge resident (and for friends who no longer live here) his photos have been exceptional. Some personal favourites: Symbolic of the changing nature of Cambridge. This was the closing day for a furniture store next door to a house where my wife once lived: https://www.acambridgediary.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/04...

#34Does anyone know what the two women in the last photo are eating? It looks sort of like a hot dog bun but slightly longer and wider.
They are sold in England with the French name baton : https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/256122878 It’s possible this is derived from an actual French name for this kind of short baguette, but it might also just be that someone thought it sounded French-ish, and that French people use no such word. They are usually made to order from tubs of mayonnaise based fillings and pre-chopped salad. Here’s a closeu…

Looks like hot dogs given the sauce selection. I didn't know there was a set length for hot dog buns.
They're baguettes. It would be super weird to have a hotdog in a cafe like that.

There's only one Cambridge anyway :)

#37See also Jamie Livingston: > Jamie Livingston (October 25, 1956 – October 25, 1997) was a New York-based photographer, film-maker and circus performer. Between March 31, 1979, and October 25, 1997, the day of his death, he took a single picture nearly every day with a Polaroid SX-70 camera.[1][2] * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamie_Livingston > NYC Photographer Jamie Livingston shot a Polaroid photo everyday for 6,…
I have seen several others, such as the girl whose father took her photos growing up from age 0 to 20. Another has a video every day on her birthdays, or was it her first day of school? I wanted to do something but realized I could not do that for various reasons (travel, work, etc). However, I take enough photos regularly, and I think by the time my kids grow up, there will be good enough or even way better technolo…

#38In 2019, after six years living in Cambridge, I moved to Seattle. A few weeks before the move I stumbled across these pictures as postcards in a local shop. They perfectly captured life in Cambridge, everything from punts on the Cam watching fireworks to jogging past cows on the green. I bought a dozen, and kept them on my desk in Seattle for a while as a reminder. Thanks for the memories!
How have you found the the transition from Cambridge to Seattle? I’m considering a similar move.
Microsoft?

#39Interesting that he chose to photograph in (1) vertical on (2) a wide lens. (1) Sceneries in general tend to feel horizontal. But I suppose you can still find vertical perspectives with street photography given that buildings are rather vertical as well. (2) Wide angle means more coverage, showing more people in the shot, which tends to make composition difficult. Typically a good photo focuses on a subject. However,…
On his site [0] the collection is subtitled 'a portrait every day'; I think it's very deliberate, well obviously it would be, but I mean I think it's intended to be 'a portrait' where the subject is Cambridge rather than a person, in a way that just taking a photo vertically (though still a deliberate choice) isn't.

#40I'd say the seeing the photographs themselves is nice: https://www.acambridgediary.co.uk/ Hug of death may take it away, however.
Thanks for sharing this link! These are a lovely set of photographs.
