this is a photo of the second part of a photo class assignment i had to present this week. for the assignment we were to make a walk and then also make an intervention of some sort in the environment. for inspiration we were introduced to the work of Richard Long and other walking artists.
for my walk and intervention i went to our property on the north end of Vancouver Island. a few weeks ago there was a landslide in the area and the land mass on the edge of our property and to the south of it underwent a drastic change. i don't have before photographs but a creek that could hardly be seen because of forest and thick undergrowth was now a 100 ft wide open area with trees down everywhere. a pullout between the road and the ocean that could easily fit 5 trucks was now completely gone.
i walked and took photographs of the landslide clean up and then went into the forest nearby and cleared a small area, set out bowls, filled them with earth and pine cones and then lit incense. then i took the bowls of ashes and earth down to the creek and submerged them in the creek.
i've posted each of the photos in this work on my website here
Week 24, Assignment 3 for Take A Class With Dave and Dave.
Toys - Photograph one or more toys in an interesting way. Make us laugh. Or not. But make it interesting. Photos of children playing with toys are NOT allowed.
This weeks assignments were hard. In addition to finding the assignments difficult for me (I'm not a huge fan of doing collages myself and the Maryland weather wasn't very cooperative for the Magic Hour shot) I also found myself actually quite busy this week.
For the toy assignment I found myself over saturated with input. Having a 5 year old in the house means we have toys everywhere. For this assignment I had too much to choose from. In the end I went for a "family" portrait of my personal favorite toys (well some of them at least). I'm a huge Stitch fan in case you didn't know that. I used this assignment as a way to experiment with some different lighting schemes as well.
Besides, how can you go wrong with the the characters from the BEST MOVIE EVER!

IMO, it's not quite controlled enough for the assignment, but what the hey...
Didn't realize I was shooting at ISO 640 until I had taken down the setup, which accounts for the noise.
I was energetic after charging the batteries. I spent a very happy day with my family. This picture was taking inside the car (my husband was driving :)). I felt the presence of the electrical towers around me (usually, they are unseen). Their energy resounded with my mood, I embraced the moment. And I took this picture.
The last I'll post from this assignment--I promise. But I wanted to highlight the song I was singing--one of my all-time favourite songs. Also by Stan Rogers, I first heard this song when Stan was performing on Canada Day at the University of Waterloo many years ago now. The song is called 45 Years, and was written to Stan's wife. I don't play it as well as Stan, but I play it well enough to sing and enjoy it. I've actually performed this at a wedding (few years ago).

Experimenting for the assignment with the outdoors and thought I would do something different. I'm really just learning how to manipulate f/stop and shutter speed to take the picture that I want to and this assignment taught me a lot about the different ratios.

Jael Gadsden is a friend of ours who happens to be an amazingly talented, up-and-coming singer/songwriter. For her latest CD she needed some shots for the front, inside and back covers.

My new guitar...
I took this picture just to show off my new guitar. I also wanted to play around with a 'light thru the blinds' shot that I saw in a lot of the 'noir' submissions from the Lighting 102 assignment. After seeing the finished shot it occurred to me that it might make a reasonable submission for the 'Cross, Balanace, Sculpt' assignment as well... although I've got more Balance and Sculpt than Cross... but oh well :)
Strobist info: Metz 45 outside shooting in thru the blinds at 1/4 power. Viv 285hv camera left (almost even with subject) shooting at 1/2 power thru a Rogue grid (25 degrees).
So here's something fun for everyone to do, should be quick and easy, but try to make it pretty.
- First, go here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random The title of the article is now the name of your band.
- Next, go here: www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 Go to the bottom of the page. The last four to five words of the last quote are the title of your first album
- Lastly, go here: www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days Select the 3rd image. It is the picture for your album cover. Manipulate the picture, resize it, add some other color, whatever. Do the same with the band name and album title, put them over top. However you wanna do it. Make it look cool.
-----------------------------------
- My wikipedia draw led me to the Oyi page
- The quote (from the last three words - I modified!) is from Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784)
"People need to be reminded more often than they need to be instructed."
- Unfortunately, the Flickr Interesting photo I originally landed on was not Creative Commons licensed, so I did an advanced search with CC license allowing modification with the search term, 'interestingness' and ended on this photo, Smouldering Heart of the Blues, by Evan Leeson.
Using www.lunapic.com LunaPic, I used color changer to modify some of the blues to purple and added the text, Oyi, using NightSky font and the text, to be instructed, using the AirConditioner font.
Fun, easy, and 'instructional' (for new editing features)! Using creative tools with limited elements was a great start - gets one beyond the 'how to I start' anxiety that many experience when asked to be 'creative'. :)

Assignment #2 is all about contrast and complementary colors. This painting is a split complementary scheme. I chose the complements of orange and blue, and then used the blue green and blue purple analogous colors. I was so sick of using a fixed color palette at this point that I just threw this together. It's way to coloring book-ish for me, but I love the subject matter, so I guess it has some merit.

Alta Gracia, Dominican Republic
Workers at the Alta Gracia factory, set up as a "fair wage" factory recently by Knights Apparel, which is one of the largest suppliers of t-shirts and sweatshirts to colleges in the US. This factory is paying workers a living wage, about 3.5 times more than they are paid in other factories clothing factories in the DR.
The clothes are sold at a slightly higher price with tags explaining to customers that Alta Gracia (also the name of the clothing line) pays the workers more.

I have submited these shots for my NYIP Unit 3, Assignment 4: 45° lighting.
The assignment was simple enough, create a tabletop still life and light from 45° to either side. For the second image, bring in a reflector. These were to be done with either natural window light or tungsten.
I think these meet the benchmark.
What do you think?
The set-up: In the first and second shot I used my trusty Norman Tri-light (modeling lamp only) as a "hot light" and set it up on at the camera left position. I then adjusted the light to give a spot-light appearance. I wanted to emphasise the texture of the cakes, while showing the moist, melted chocolate chips they embed into the divine cake. For the second shot I added a bounce reflector to camera right, just out of frame. I also (cheating?) introduced a mirrored bounce behind the subjects to "kick" some of that light onto the backside of the front cake and somewhat sidelight the back cakes.
I was thinking I might submit them in this diptych layout, since I'll never use the one without bounce...
well, never say never, would make a good illustration on the importance of bounce!
The small cakes that carry the name, along with the ever posh US bakery and restaurant built by Chef Thomas Keller, not the typical Bouchonstyle of French eatery.
These tiny cakes are luscious, and the reason my every visit to Napa and/or Harbin HS generally includes a side trip to Yountville, CA.
I don’t know how these simple ingredients can be assembled to create these decadent delights, but somehow they manage… and I am blessed every time I have the chance to experience the bliss induced when I taste one of these sweet morsels.

Active Assignment Weekly: Break the Rules
First I used dead/wilting flowers, and underexposed them. I also tried to break the rules of composition by placing the "heaviest" object at the top of the frame, making it look upside-down (it isn't). Hardest of all for me, this is straight out of the camera, no cropping or anything. Used a low power speedlight camera left, snooted to prevent spill.
Unfortunately, the big, intact rose is right at the junction of thirds lines. Apparently, I can't break that many rules.
IMGP6645
In this photo I want to represent the song and movie “The Gambler”.
1. In this composition I picked black and white color elements to minimize the distraction. The photo is more a form rather than shape. The way objects connect to each other in this photo draw the eye from object to object.
2. The separation from the background is the black and white elements themselves on the textured marble This photo has a high value due to the brightness of the light and lack of darker area.
3. Because I used created indoor light and no flash I had to increase my ISO up to 1600. I wanted to make sure that the objects are well illuminated. This might create more noise to the photo.
4. In this photo I had no depth of field due to the amount of light that passed through into the camera. It turned out in a sharper image. I had hard time creating a good light avoiding shadow.
5. I planed and gathered the objects to reflect the theme of the assignment. I intended to use objects that are more retro fashion in appearance and color to express the content of the story of song and movie “The Gambler” In this arrangement of elements I had to imply to the viewer the final idea, the winner. Without a story attached to it the photo would have been just an arrangement of objects.
6. I really enjoy taking photos when I have a well define theme. I like the challenge; it gives me a reason to shot photos.
Assignment 52 -- Home Town Tourist Attractions -- Ernest Hemingway Birthplace, 339 N. Oak Park Ave., Oak Park, IL
Oak Parkers are very proud of their native son, Ernest Hemingway. They're even proud of his famously derisive description of the village as "a neighborhood of wide lawns and narrow minds." I suppose that's because they think they've changed.
The Hemingway Foundation provides tours of the birthplace house, lovingly restored to Victorian splendor, with amazing attention to the accuracy of details gleaned from such hints as scraps of wallpaper and descriptions by Hemingway's sister Marcelline. The Foundation also maintains a museum a block away, with photos and artifacts. I do have to wonder what Hemingway might have to say about the fervency of his local admirers. He certainly said many irreverent, puncturing things, though he also said things that feed right into the Mythologizing of the Great Macho Writer (who did not care for his first name, by the way, because of the Oscar Wilde title).
Here are a few Hemingway quotes that resonate with me, while wandering the leafy, wide-lawned streets, on my brief ad hoc literary appreciation & walking tour:
--All stories, if continued far enough, end in death, and he is not a true-story teller who would keep that from you.
-- There isn't any symbolism. The sea is the sea. the old man is an old man. The boy is a boy and the fish is a fish. The shark is all sharks, no better and no worse. All the symbolism that people say is shit. What goes beyond is what you see beyond when you know.
-- The most solid advice for a writer is this, I think: Try to learn to breathe deeply, really to taste food when you eat, and when you sleep really to sleep. Try as much as possible to be wholly alive with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell. And when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.
