Maybe you could enjoy this little video cat portrait (March 2015): youtu.be/9W_SFAJHdzU
This is probably my favorite image in my concentration. I don't see many images shot through water droplets, so I wanted to try it. I had my sister sit inside the car and I sprayed water on the window. The straight out of camera version of this image versus the final version of this image are so drastically different and I love how I was able to change this image.
Having some fun taking hip-shots in Starbucks with my little Canon S95 and running them through Topaz Adjust and Topaz Simplify. By the way, by hip-shots, I mean shooting from my hip ~ not shots of her hip...`~'

Hung a bag of water with a pinhole in it above a bowl.
Protip- stick a pen where the water is falling to grab focus
Originally shot for breadth, but I thought it fit better with my concentrations. Took 250+ shots and then narrowed down to about 20 good ones. I'd like to reshoot at some point with food coloring and have a different color in the bowl than the drops, as well as try for a lower angle, more flat with the bowl to see more of the drop.
water droplets on transparent plastic, shot in front of a large LCD monitor with a polariser over the lens, rotated until the LCD 'blacks-out' , all the light on the picture is then provided where the plastic rotates the plane of polarisation back allowing it to pass through the camera polarising filter
I have just returned from my latest stint of babysitting.
Elodie was given a toy called Aqua Beads for Christmas where you make things out of these tiny beads that stick together with water and then dry hard.
It takes great concentration as it is quite fiddly to do. She loves it and spent the entire morning totally engrossed in her various projects !
Jasmine concentrates on the children playing, while I try to apply the "Rule of Thirds". It is pretty close to being exact for her eye.
Time for another bird of the week! This great egret was fishing alongside a snowy egret near a culvert in the Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge. In fact, snowy egrets seemed to have the culverts staked out. I can't quite get over how nonchalant the birds are in Florida. Doesn't really seem any point in trying to photograph them in Massachusetts.

Crematorium I: before the war this building was a munition bunker. From August 15, 1940 to July 1943 the SS used it as a crematorium. In the autumn of 1941, the largest room, which had been designed by the camp authorities as a morgue, was adapted for use as an improvised gas chamber, the first of its kind in Auschwitz.
After the establishment of Auschwitz II-Birkenau of two more improvised gas chambers in 1942 for the mass murder of the Jews, the gassings here were gradually stopped, the burning of corpses here was also stopped (July 1943).
This concentration represents what we are doing to the Earth for oil. There are many fires, explosions, and oil spills caused by digging harming the environment by polluting the air and water. The orange represents Earth is being juiced. I used dark lighting to give it a more serious tone. (For my reshoot I instead used a hand squeezing the orange instead of a juicer since it wasn't as visible and because it better shows how we humans are the cause of this problem. Also, I used feedback and got black paint to symbolize oil coming out of Africa.)
