... just the thing to keep cool. Gimme 15minutes flat out on the lounge floor and I will be revived ;-)
I can't decide what this photo is missing. There's always the possibility it's missing everything.
Please let me know what you think.

Just thought I'd have a little fun with the wide angle lens, and give a different perspective on the ceiling fan in our sunroom.

My gallery ceiling : the Biscaya demolition
www.flickr.com/photos/pierremarcel/2125876849/
Soon after my installation as a muralist in South Bach, I witnessed its demolition in 1987 and met the preservationists who organized concerted, but unsuccessful protest. The Biscaya could have been to Miami Beach what the Biltmore now is to Coral Gables.
I was more sensitive to the human aspect of that event than the purely esthetic architectural historic preservation one. In my big mural, I painted the blowing away mattresses and personal belongings of the numerous homeless living in the abandoned building.
If I was genuinely an fan of the Art Deco tropical designs, I felt already that all efforts to save this district will not necessarily permit to humble artist like me to stay in that paradise, the cost of living and attending a gallery will be skyrocketing, the future inhabitants will be just investors, not real citizen attached to city life and local art thriving.

There's nothing like a couple nice days to make you want to dive head first into summer. First though, a little prep is needed.
Yesterday I broke out the tanning shirt, contemplated a few more plants for my small but enthusiastic menagerie, regretted eating so many hamburgers and not working harder at the gym the past six months, and changed the direction on my ceiling fan.
When I woke up in the middle of the night last night and saw that it was still 73 degrees in my place, I immediately noticed the difference the ceiling fan tweak made.
Then I started to dread the next five months in my un-air conditioned place.
Last winter while researching how to help keep my place warmer, I came across an excellent post
about all-things-ceiling-fans at Hanson Wholesale. It explains which direction ceilings fans need to go depending on if it is summer or winter.
"During the summer you want the fan to blow air straight down, so your ceiling fan needs to run in a counter clockwise direction (as you look up at it). The warmer it is, the higher the speed should be. During the winter, your fan should run at a low speed in a clockwise direction."
That puts it in pretty simple terms. The post goes into much greater detail if ceiling fans are your thing, but this answered my question beautifully.
But it doesn't solve the underlying problem:
I don't have air conditioning.
While I mull that one over until my place becomes an oven for the third summer in a row, I'll unpack my trusty Vornado fans that help create the wind tunnel I call home.
At least the air is moving. And as I discovered at o'dark thirty this morning, that's a good start.
P.S. I just noticed the pic above looks like a moose. Now I'll never be able to look at my ceiling fan the same way again. :)
I missed the good old days where hot means warm, and temperature reached up to 29 degrees . That was way back 12 years ago in Klang.
Recently, every day is so hot that I need ceiling fan outdoor.
If rain happens to pour down, I get flooding roads.
Being outdoor is a major dilemma.
Either I get freaking wet of the rain or get burn under the striking hot sun.
Global warming is indeed a disaster.
This is a home in Lanikai, Oahu, Hawaii that I was hired to shoot.

Too hot and too busy to spend a lot of time on this one, I'm afraid. I was looking for movement inside the house adn I remembered those scenes from the movie "Cry Freedom" where Steve Biko is being interrogated by the South African police. The director used extremely low and extremely high camera angles which included the ceiling fans in the room. For example: mikehoolboom.com/thenewsite/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/8-...
I was also reminded of the yellowish tinge to the shots set in Mexico in the film "Traffic". So I have tried to combine the two - I was trying to create a feeling of unease and discomfort, even despair. I wanted the moving fan to suggest cutting or disruption, even violence, and the high contrast and slight yellowish colour to suggest high heat and humidity.
To get the shot I had the camera on a small tripod on the floor while I stood on a stool to avoid getting any furniture or other items in the frame. This involved a lot of climbing up and down to check the LCD and adjusting fan speed, shutter speed, camera angle, ISO, focus (the auto focus would not work on the moving fan), etc, etc.
In Photoshop, I altered exposure, brightness, contrast and levels. I also cropped it. I also used Nik Color Efex 4 to simulate slight film grain and to fine-tune the contrast. (These are very powerful tools and I am still learning how to use them.) I would like to make the fan blades more distinct, but I am not sure how to do that.
