Just made this shot as my humble tribute to the untimely demise of the
King of Pop whose songs like Ben and One Day In Your Life
are songs I'd grown up with in my HS.
May this candle and its light guide him in his journey to join Our Creator.
HMB to all.
Is it a muddy outback highway? You will all remember those TV ads where the kids or animals traipse dirty muddy feet over the carpet and they have some new cleaning product or service that works a miracle clean. That's what we need here. This is the top rail along out back patio...or was! Last night we had very bad storms with lots of rain and hail. This morning, our Galahs came in for breakfast at 7.00am (the shop doesn't open earlier) and since they had got up at the crack of dawn and been down in the local park or creek grubbing out grass roots and stuff. They then fly in with clots of mud on their beaks and very dirty feet (red clay you might notice) that gets spread all over anything they walk on, especially the highly convenient back rail. So later, we have a clean up job to do, plates, the rail and even Mum's (read Jenny's) washing basket which happened to be out there temporarily! But we love them all and this morning, everyone, the Galahs and Sulphur Crested Cockatoos were having amazing fun in the trees and power lines around our suburb. They certainly love life.
A break from my Beijing landscape series.
One shot would have not been enough if it had not flown so fast.
No life story this time.. hahaha

this is in National Harbor in Maryland which is a multi use waterfront destination along the shores of the Potomac River...just across this harbor is Alexandria, Virginia already...it's been very gray and cloudy and rainy since we got here a few days ago but we still managed to go around sight see and get some nice photo ops here and there...we were waiting by the pier to hopefully get some great sunset shots but the clouds just kept getting grayer and thicker although it did stay dry so we stuck around for blue hour shots instead and get some night shots around the harbor...the harbor is pretty much new and is not as big as the harbor in Baltimore but still, this place is quite a fabulous area to check out if you happen to travel around MAryland or DC....hope you guys like tis one...pls.

Quiet day in the studio. Trying to figure out the lighting schemes of the masters, most notably Karsh. Selfie using one strobe, 10 degree spot grid. I think in the end the light was too high, and probably not an acute enough of an angle to rim the face properly. I would have liked to see a little rim light under the nose to give it form. I do like that I can just see the left eye in the shadow.

I'm not a big sports fan but the Cyclones and MCU Park won me over. The stadium has a great location, it's small enough so you can see all the action and the whole atmosphere is very friendly and fun.

This roll was the first time I tried pushing Ultrafine Xtreme 400 two stops. Looks pretty good!

Question of the day
While shooting that series I was listening to
"You make me feel" by Archive.
Don't handicap your children by making their lives easy.
Do you agree to the above quote?
(quote by Robert A. Heinlein)
The 105mm focal length is an interesting one, sitting between the popular "portrait" focal length of 85mm and the super standard medium tele of 135mm, nevertheless has a prominent roll in the Nikon lens lineup, since the 105/2.5 has such a long and glorious history.
It gives you a bit more working distance than an 85, while still retaining a good balance between speed, lens size (and hence DoF), making the lens suitable for both snaps and portraits.
While the original 105/2.5 (Nikkor-P designed for their rangefinders) was almost a direct copy of the Zeiss Sonnar design, the later 105/2.5s like this one employed the Schneider Xenotar design, which is a modified double gauss (i.e., "Planar") design.
True to the Planar lineage, the lens renders fantastic bokeh––indeed, it renders some of the cleanest, most perfect bokeh circles of all of my lenses (see comment as well as the Project 365 shot).
Juvenile batfish from Critters@Lembeh house reef; dusk dive, 105MM macro. Digital manipulation -- lots of editing to turn it from a back-scatter filled, useless shot into a nice silhouette.
The City Museum in downtown St. Louis is one of the most unusual places in town. Housed in a 600,000 square-foot building formerly occupied by the International Shoe Company, the museum is an eclectic mixture of children's playground, funhouse, surrealistic pavilion, and architectural marvel made out of unique, found objects. The brainchild of internationally acclaimed artist Bob Cassilly, a classically trained sculptor and serial entrepreneur, the museum opened for visitors in 1997.
Cassilly and his longtime crew of 20 artisans have constructed the museum from bits and pieces of odds and ends salvaged from old buildings and other parts of the city. The City Museum boasts features such as old chimneys, salvaged bridges, construction cranes, miles of tile, a school bus, a ferris wheel, and even two abandoned planes.
This is a view from the 11th floor roof of the City Museum overlooking the City of St. Louis. The ferris wheel is locatedon the roof and is operational.
