WIT: A trip to Nice (France) to enjoy the amazing carnival parade, and about a ton of shots.
My position was not so good, having the sun directly pointing at my lens, so I had to play a little bit with it.

Assignment 52: Represent your own brand of holiday madness during this busy & festive season.
So here is Po, no more pleased to be posing with Christmas tree lights than she was the first time around, despite the caption I chose for the cards. Call it irony if you wish -- can't every holiday use some? Po actually is quite a joyful dog, & always well-rewarded for posing! (And I'm joyful that I managed to get cards printed this year! Now to start mailing---)

Assignment 52 -- October Colors
The leaves around here have been very slow to turn this fall, & all the leaves in my own trees are still green. I found quite a lot of color at the Arboretum, though. So much that I had a hard time choosing for the assignment. Here's the link to others:
Just a quick update on my workspace.
The only difference would be the addition of the new speakers. Decided to go with the Harman Kardon Soundstick III. Got it for about 3weeks now. No regrets. :)
Weekend's coming! Have a great one my Flickr friends.
p/s: Not photographed: 15" MacBook Pro with Ironman decals. (Yes, couldn't be happier wit hthe decal) Check out my photostream for a photo of it. Cheers!

Match hues in one of your paintings and place them on a grid with those in the center vertical row being the most important.
Active Assignment Weekly: All about Ernst Haas
This photo is about colour and slow shutter speed, blurring the movement of this dog playing in the Lake Ontario shallows. I usually use very fast shutter speeds, so this was a change for me and I think I got some nice captures that look different to what I normally take.
WIT: I have cropped the image and I brightened the image a bit.
Here is some characterful in-situ concrete adorning the Bedford Way façade of Logan Hall, UCL, in the Bloomsbury district of London. Notice the detailing left behind after the wooden shuttering - into which the concrete was poured - was removed. Photographed on Tuesday 17th August 2021.
Logan Hall was designed by Sir Denys Lasdun and opened in 1977. It was subsequently awarded a Grade II* listing.

These five photographs show my love of travel and adventure. I would take both my memories of Norway, where my husband was born and of Japan where I have dear friends with me on my journey. It is appropriate in a way with my wonderful but different experiences of these two countries echo this assignment. My experience of Norway is of being foreign and coming to feel at home. I have learned to speak the language and identify with this small community-centered culture. I love Norwegian food and customs. Could I ever feel at home like this on my new distant planet? Perhaps that is where Japan comes in. I have visited three times and enjoy the energy of the cities and the beauty of the countryside. I have dear friends here, but I will never feel at home. I come to accept that I will never fully understand what is happening or what the customs are before I do something not quite right. I simple apologize a great deal and enjoy the unexpected nature of every interaction. I sense that perhaps my experience on my new planet might be more like this - - never again at home and always trying to understand but enjoying the challenge.
My favorite two are the "View toward the Vega Archipelago" and "Buddha and Monk, Nara, Japan" Each of these photographs expresses my need for contemplation both in nature and in sacred places. They would be comforting in the journey away from all I know and love.
As you can see, I have a lot to work on this weekend. All of my assignments are due on Monday, so time to get crackin'. Oh, and when I'm doing writing assignments for my class, I have to then grade final exams and assignemtns from my students.
One more week . . .

Lydie's assignment 29. Movie poster. Rather plain, not as cool as I pictured it. May redo the whole thing with a new concept if I find the time. Then again, I always say that.
And yes. Again, just some simple simple frankensteining, then the mask and some shading. I'm a horrible slacker...
Assignment 52 - Silhouettes
I'm fortunate to be in Georgia this week for this assignment, with fabulous light & horizons for silhouette shots. Since this is a trip to visit Po's son, Hibou, at the field trial pro's where he's in training, I'm indulging in a bunch of dog silhouettes. Here's yet another:

Active Assignment Weekly: Minimalism/K.I.S.S
This is my second and final photo submission for this assignment, but my fourth attempt at high speed water drop photography. I think this is my best so far! I think that the negative space and the singular subject qualifies it as "Minimalist".
What it took: WELL, the setup is a ziploc bag of water clipped onto my background stand, dripping down onto a piece of glass which is on top of a pan to catch the water. I have a blue piece of paper behind that, and my external flash is pointed toward the background paper. The flash is set on 1/64 power, and the camera is set at shutter speed 1/200 and f/13.

Active Assignment Weekly: April 15-22, 2024, Simplicity. To me, simplicity means no distractions. I decided to use two of the many different techniques available to achieve this - fill the frame ("After the Rain") and negative space ("Beach Time"). Both photos were taken at Point Pelee National Park, Ontario. You'll be seeing a lot of pictures from this park, as I am here for two months (it is a bird migration hotspot).

For the final assignment for my film photography class.
Concept:
This is the antithesis of the Ansel Adams type, quintessential landscape photo.
Instead of being perfect and crisp and accurate... instead of using extremely precise exposure with well-defined accuracy using the zone system and other techniques... this photo is everything that those things are not.
This photograph was shot on 35mm in a 120N Holga. However, while that type of photography yields imperfections and "happy accidents", there is still an amount of precision and technique that goes into shooting this way. Because, of course, while you're playing a sort of guessing game, you certainly can't just go into it blindly - it won't work that way. You have to make extremely educated decisions on exposure, perhaps moreso than you do with the zone system and such techniques, because you are, in essence, shooting in the dark.
This is something that I have been working on a lot during the past month or so - and I feel it is developing into somewhat of a personal language. This lo-fi, imperfect, accidental experimentation with photography is wonderful - I have fallen very much in love with it. I gave up my other idea - to revisit the self-portrait - for this. Alternative landscape, at its best. :o)
Process (thought I would add this in case anyone was curious):
35mm Kodak 125PX black and white film in a 120N Holga. It's really easy, and doesn't really require any extra manipulation to the Holga.... you just have to tape up the window really well, using a few pieces of cardboard and loads of tape. Tape alone will not work - you'll get light leaks.
You should wind about 28-30 clicks between frames - you can do less or more depending. It will yield you about 16 shots. Once you're done with the roll, you have to leave it in the Holga and take it out in a darkroom. In the darkroom, you can unwind it from the spool that was in the Holga and wind it back into the cannister, and then process it yourself, or take it somewhere.
To print this, you need a glass plate in the enlarger, in place of a negative carrier. Using a negative carrier won't show the sprocket holes. When you print it, it will always be just a little shorter than your paper, if you print for the entire length.
For these images, I printed on glossy fiber paper, and then sepia toned them. You need bleach and sepia toner to do this. This also brings out the numbers, I found. In black and white, it was somewhat difficult to see the numbers.
