Sorry about the poor quality, it's a screenshot from a webcam. This is from one of my university assignments dealing with augmented reality. The program we are using tracks markers and places an object on them in 3D space, so in reality we can't see those objects on the markers, but they are displayed on the screen exactly how it is presented in this photo. These objects are part of a demo, we didn't make them ourselves.

Active Assignment Weekly: June 27 - July 4: Body Parts
Your assignment is to photograph body parts. Keep the props, or clothing to a minimum and really focus in on a body part. With that said PLEASE remember the group rules and keep it clean.
Dare: Make it abstract or hard to tell what part of the body you have chosen (please refrain from the cliche arm or leg crack made to look like a butt)
Restriction: No full face or full body shots, and as stated before no naughty areas.
WIT: Struggled with this one really. Finally lassoed a willing model, and as I was taking photos of the back of his neck, I saw this shot. We were both amazed at how freckled his fingers are as shown in the shot. Taken outside in evening cloudy light. Desaturated reds and added an inverted highpass filter with soft light blending after contrast and brightness adjustments. No cropping. I know it's grainy, but so is the owner of this fist.
This week's assignment: "Film Noir", French for "black film". This will probably be a more difficult assignment that will require much more preparation because mood as well as lighting are important aspects as well as creating a story.
Here is Wikipedia's definition:
"Film noir is a cinematic term used primarily to describe stylish Hollywood crime dramas, particularly those that emphasize cynical attitudes and sexual motivations. Hollywood's classic film noir period is generally regarded as stretching from the early 1940s to the late 1950s. Film noir of this era is associated with a low-key black-and-white visual style that has roots in German Expressionist cinematography. Many of the prototypical stories and much of the attitude of classic noir derive from the hardboiled school of crime fiction that emerged in the United States during the Depression."
Think of old movies, such as The Maltese Falcon" or relatively new ones like "Sin City".

The assignment of the week: Rule of Thirds. I got excited and went straight away to demonstrate an example. Sorry for being so sudden about it XD.
Minimum photos to submit: 1
Maximum photos to submit: 5
Last date for submissions: 1/22/2010 (Next Friday)
Resolution should not exceed 600pxl on the longest side (horizontal or vertical)
Heavy post processing will disqualify the submissions. Only contrast adjustments and cropping allowed.
This is what I can think of right now. I'll try to give it more thoughts later and update the rules and other related stuff to make it better. Now I have to study to make up for the time I lost preparing all of this >_<

The setup on this shot is as follows:
A single flash, to camera right from a distance of about 15 inches from the egg separator. Shot through a "gel" (Ok not really a gel, but a bottle of Dawn dish detergent about 1 inch off the flash face) on each side of the utensil, and just over are sheets of white copy paper (so, three in all) to catch the white light that escaped around the "gel" and reflect back on the separator.
I tried to give the illusion of a multi-light setup using a single flash.
Assignment: PCA03 - Isolated Subject
Deadline: October 1st, 2007
Mission:
Show us an isolated subject. Razor sharp focus on the subject, and completely blurred to annihilation backgrounds. This can be accomplished by using a wide aperture and having a distant background. If using a less sophisticated camera, try using the portrait mode or macro mode. If you cannot get the background out of focus, then choose a featureless background.
I took a lot of pictures for this assignment and I think I liked the ones of this fence the least, but it is the only one where one subject is in razor sharp focus. All my others ones suffer from soft or blurry edges on the main subject. I did some post-processing work on this photo: cropping and trying to dodge out the bright white spot in the middle of the photo. It sort of worked. I still think it is too bright in comparison to the rest of the background, but any darker and it started to look strange.
