This is the Weekly view of my DIY planner I designed and printed at home. For years I'd used every planner system on the market - Covey, Day-Timer, Time Design - you name it - I've used them. Gets quite expensive after so many years! So, I took all the best ideas from every system and incorporated them all into my own page design. Hope you like it! This is my first photo so I apologize if the quality's a little off. There are various other sections and forms I've created which I hope to post soon if anyone is interested. On a final note, I've been browsing everyone's planner pics for a long time now and am SO glad there are others out there with the same passion for planners and paper that I have.
My first attempt at the DIY Bokeh wall. Switched to one of my most treasured items. A custom-made Star Wars Imperial Crest in a ring made of stainless steel, ceramic and black diamond. One further addition, the Darth Vader laser pointer I usually use to play with the cats.
DIY flash bounce, I used the template from this tutorial.
Just printed out the template and cut the foam thing to shape and glued the wide flexible band to it with contact adhesive to keep it in shape and for easy attaching to the flash. It took about 15-20 minutes to do and most of it went to waiting the glue to dry.
The second picture is just to show how small it goes for the camera bag. Total cost was less than 1€ so it was very much worth it and it works great.
Anbrie wanted a goth prom, so she created her own gothic look. Hit the L key to view the detail on her eye makeup. She did an amazing job! See the anbrie tag if you'd like to view other photos I've taken of this young lady.

ASP 400 S is a panchromatic halftone aerial negative film, which I bought not realising it comes unperforated—with no sprocket holes. So the only camera I can shoot it with is a DIY cardboard pinhole camera.
I finally got fed up with my flatbed scans and decided to try camera scans. Because of my wedding work i have most of the equipment I need except the light source and a copy stand. The light source was easy enough, the cinestill cslite I picked up and it seems to do the job just fine but the copy stand was a different matter - too expensive or not too expensive but obviously garbage. Of course I turned to YouTube and found this really simple and inexpensive build and it seems to work great.
The Build:
15x21 bamboo cutting board as the base $20
half inch galvanized pipe, 24 inch length as the post. $11.30
Mounted to the base with a floor flange. $8.37
Wood screws x4 (pack of 10) $4.00
total cost = $43.67
Manfrotto clamp with a 3/8 to 1/4 inch adapter and my Benro ballhead attached. (already owned).
Camera: Canon r6 with 100mm f2.8 macro lens
I'm sure you already knew all this because I'm always late to the party and my desk is a mess.
You're welcome.
he made this "motorbike" himself, has another 5 at home. Interesting design... maybe better than my Solex from 1977. Thanks for the opportunity to do this photograph.

Fossil Messenger bag with photo inserts as a DIY bag for my Fujifilm X setup. I can put Fuji Xpro-1 with 56 1.2, Fuji XE-1 with 23 1.4, Fuji 35 1.4 and Fuji 60 2.4. I can also put the Fuji EF-X20 and an Ipad Air. I tried so many bags but this I really fell in love with it.
(This photo explains real simple how this DIY Monitor ringlight is supposed to work...)
Hello there folks,
How are you?
My name is Sebastien and i subscribed specialy because i had to share this great idea...
It's the most simple Do it Your Self Ringlight there can possible be!
I didn't see this idea around anywhere on Flickr and i searched alot for these things so if i am right i might set a new trend here.
Here's the thing: a friend of mine showed his new 23inch apple monitor and talked about how bright it whas and how it almost functioned as a lamp to light his room with, and demonstrated it to me in the dark.
I had my new Canon 30D with me and all the sudden i thought, yup, it's big, it's bright... Hey! it's a great candidate for a ringlight.!
So we quickly created some white shapes on black backgrounds and played around with these and we had some GREAT results!
Later on when i whas alone at my moms place, i whas sitting behind her old 15inch CRT monitor and thought: would the same trick work with this small thing? Well... here are the results of that session and of other sessions too, so judge for yourself.
You want to do this too?
There are some things you must know first though.
A monitor is in the end not THAT bright, so you need a dark room with as litle other light as possible.
You also must have a camera with good ISO performance, i shot this pictures on ISO 1600, and trust me, you will need it, shutter speeds are sometimes way below 1/30.
A fast lens, with a minimal F2.8 will help you here as well, and a good lowlight autofocus too, there is always manualfocus ofcourse.
Then when you match the most of these requirements there is only one thing left to do:
Point your camera at your face with it's back facing the monitor in the middle of your DIY ringlight shape , hold very still and say:... Cheese!!!
I Added some "Monitor Ringlights" (as i call them), so you can take of right away.
So have fun, it's the easiest way to find out what a ringlight will do to your pictures.
Greetings,
Sebastien,

You will need :
1 x Stainless steel small-hole sink filter
1 x inexpensive filter with the needed diameter
Tools
1 x electric driller (I used an electric screw driver)
1 x scissors for metal
1 x permanent marker
8mm, 7mm and 4 mm drill bits
Black paint
Process
1. Unscrew the ring that hold the glass on the filter and remove the glass from the filter frame.
2. Put the filter frame over the sink filter and mark a circle using the inner part.
3. Enlarge the central hole of the sink filter with the 8mm drill bit. 6 to 10mm drill bits will work too.
4. Enlarge external holes with the others drill bits, you can experiment for desired results holding the sink filter in front of the camera lens and shotting. I made 4mm holes on the fist circle and 7mm holes on half of the holes of the external circle.
5. Once you get the results you wanted cut the external part of the sink filter with the scissors and then adjust it to fit on the filter frame.
6. Paint it black (optional) and mount it on the filter frame using the ring.
7. Enjoy it at maximum aperture!
By the way, I used a 50mm lense at f1,8. I do not think it will work with lenses with apertures smaller than f3,5.
PS please take this as a starting point to experiment, and not as a final point!
I finally built my own Beautydish =)
seems to work pretty good...
The following side gave me some inspiration:
ishootshows.com/2010/02/09/music-photographers-diy-beauty...
...but instead of a stainless steel bowl I used a plastic bowl and some other variations.
Total cost: about 25€
Ask me, if you have any questions...
Created with fd's Flickr Toys.
Thanks to DIY site and this link DIY Bokeh for this always fun idea.
This is my crude version of trying this out. It fits right over my nifty-fifty. Yes, they're Christmas lights.
This was seen on LifeHacker
This is my DIY Beauty Dish. It is 18" and made from a pressed bamboo
bowl I found at a pottery store. I blogged the details of how I built
it on LightandPixels.com.
Strobist info: uh, well, shot with using a SB600 hand held through a Lumiquest III soft box mostly. That last shot though was just the beauty dish aimed back at me with it's SB800 in side.
DIY Studio Lighting Panel:
Made from: 4x 10' lengths of 3/4" Schedule 40 PVC pipe, 8x 90deg. shoulder couplings, and 6x tees.
Can function as:
- Adding a sheet of white muslin and placing lightsource behind makes a 4' x 7' softbox/diffusion screen.
- Adding a sheet of white rip-stop nylon (the stuff used in flags and parachutes) makes a very large scrim.
- Adding a sheet of black muslin makes a reductive source to create shadow.
- Adding a sheet of a light-colored, shiny material (such as a white shower curtain) and placing opposite key light makes a really good (and big) reflector/bounce.
- Can even be laid flat under subject and used as a bounce for chin shadow.
Supplies cost $22 and took 1.5 hours to build.

strap a pencil eraser and a hair tie to your camera and set it to continuous shooting. too bad it only has one setting...
Attempt at a DIY Beauty Dish. The results are rather impressive, and we'll now use these guys in the field!
Full story, and more photos on the blog!
The full write up for this project is on my blog.
I now have photos of my v.2 bracket up here: www.flickr.com/photos/kangster/sets/72157621728749160/. The new version is not as compact but can take full advantage of E-TTL and auto focus assist.
I did a cute tutorial to share on this blog: abeautifulmess.typepad.com/my_weblog/2010/01/guest-diy-wi...

furniture made from reclaimed pallet wood
Upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality or a higher environmental value.
The first recorded use of the term upcycling was by Reiner Pilz of Pilz GmbH in an interview by Thornton Kay of Salvo in 1994.[1]
We talked about the impending EU Demolition Waste Streams directive. "Recycling," he said, "I call it downcycling. They smash bricks, they smash everything. What we need is upcycling where old products are given more value not less." He despairs of the German situation and recalls the supply of a large quantity of reclaimed woodblock from an English supplier for a contract in Nuremberg while just down the road a load of similar blocks was scrapped. In the road outside his premises, was the result of the Germans' demolition waste recycling. It was a pinky looking aggregate with pieces of handmade brick, old tiles and discernible parts of useful old items mixed with crushed concrete. Is this the future for Europe?
