Experimenting with a bright flashlight to do light painting this morning using the new Canon 6D, before sunrise, at home, at the Golden Gate, and the Palace of Fine Arts, San Francisco, USA. I'm not impressed, could've taken these easily with a cheaper camera. I used the flashlight on the rocks in the foreground, I don't know why came out electric blue.
As I moved the slider along to change the hue and saturation, I noticed that at the pace it changes it creates an effect of different colours. And so I print screened them and these are my results..
These are scans of old Polaroid photos. We were experimenting with different hair and makeup to see if I the look would be nice enough to go to a event/dance. (I thought this was the better look of the two.) Unfortunately, "life happened" and I did not get to make it.

Okay, so this is an experiment combined with an 'I'm so tired, I'm going to sleep' state of an image. But I actually quite liked where it stood, in its weird sort of blendly forest present state. So I decided to let it just remain like that instead of staying awake...day 18, yay!
An experiment with ICM (Intentional Camera Movement), this won't appeal to many as a railway photograph, I mean it's all out of focus and looks a mess, but it does have some appeal to me.
This is just an experimental shot and process which in all honesty I didn't think anything would result, with the camera set on a longish exposure, I clicked and rotated the camera as the train approached, I did another when the train had passed, two images are straightened and merged in Photoshop with a multiply layer blend. There are no other Photoshop special effects.

I bought an eyeshadow palette thinking I’d convert it to a watercolor palette, but before washing out the eyeshadow paste and replacing it with tube watercolors, I thought I’d try doing a painting using the eyeshadow colors. They contain mica and are shiny. It doesn’t really show up in the scan. I mixed in some Chinese white watercolor paint to get the bright whites. Image is about 5.5x10 inches (25.5x14 cm).
I used the included "brush". It’s a stick with a small, soft, cheap brush on one end and a foam applicator on the other. I like the colors and soft look like pastel. A fun experiment for. $4.
This was a time where I would add a little this and a little that to make things pop off....well it's still da same format but like time things have advanced....
Eine kleine Spielerei vom Wochenende.
Angeregt durch die Chip Foto-Video 12/2013, wollte ich das Experiment ausprobieren. Ich kann es nur empfehlen. Man benötigt einen Metallquirl (aus der Küche), ein Stück Schnur (1,5 m) und Stahlwolle "000" aus dem Baumarkt. Die Schnur wird an dem Quirl befestigt, in den Quirl stopft man lose die Stahlwolle und los geht es. Die Kameraeinstellung findet Ihr in den Exif-Daten. Ich habe meinen Selbstauslöser (10 s) benutzt, die Zeit reicht gut, die Stahlwolle mit einem Feuerzeug anzuzünden und alles in kreisende Bewegung zu versetzen. Es macht Spaß, Erfolg garantiert!!!!
Guess who's off sick?
Anyway, playing about with some filters I was given by a friend - this is a "soft spot" filter, which I guess is meant to give kind of the same effect as a lensbaby (ie only one part in focus, the rest blurred), but I was quite disappointed as the effect isn't very obvious, in fact it's pretty negligible...so I just thought I'd play about and whack on as much grain and noise on it as possible, hence me shooting at ISO 1600, plus adding extra in PS...anyway, I was trying to get some creepy shots of dolls (as you do) and I quite like how they came out...
I had never heard the term Dutch Angle before, I probably would have described it as wonky. I have never set out to take a wonky picture before. I probably would have made the subject wonky if I thought it would help. So today was an interesting experiment.
This is an experiment on editing color. Today I am going to do a course on Elements, hope it will rub off as I feel I lag a lot of knowledge there.
I am one of these city girls who takes the car for every thing, so I can only dream of cycling, but this is also due to extreme workpressure.

This is my friend, Emily. We decided to purchase some confetti from Dollarama and experiment with it. Unfortunately, it was freezing (can't really tell from these pics LOL) so we didn't take pictures for too long :s Hoping for warm, spring weather some time this week so we can redo this experiment!
Feliz Natal!
Merry Christmas!

Here you have a couple of photos of the first chapter of Dystopia, a parallel alternative retro futuristic society fallen into decay due lack of control over genetic and transhumanic experiments in living beings for fashion and my new art installation for Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA, sim 24).
Black Wall included an opening performance as conceptual experiment where audience was invited to participate in to face inner black walls, those full of memories, dreams and monsters. A moment of analysis and inner retrospective that Kira, Dystopia’s main character, have to do to search for a future. Black Wall is the beginning of Kira’s journey, an illegal immigrant looking to cross frontier to a better life.
Opium, Dream and Utopia are the triplets nymphs of Dystopia. In this 1st episode, you meet Opium. Behind, in abstract surreal form, you can see The Smuggler. Listen to him to have the first clue to know a bit more about Kira.

An experiment with expired film
Shot on PC 400 (President's Choice), a supermarket branded film from The Real Canadian Superstore, unknown expiry, rated at ISO/ASA 100. The canister says product of the Netherlands, but from the DX code 005783, this appears to be Fujicolor Superia 400.
Since this roll of film was expired, I decided to experiment with the developing process, so I soaked or "souped" the film in orange pekoe tea with lemon for 14 hours before developing. By accident, I had not twisted and locked the developing tank all the way, so after the developer, the tank top came off as I was pouring out the water used to wash/stop the developer; however, I don't think this affected the outcome much.
I can see a bit of red in some shots, but all other colours were washed off. I might try again, even with fresh film, and less time in the soup, with possibly other "cooking" ingredients.

Right partner, here is what I came up with - but feel free to bring me to a grinding halt if it doesn't rock your boat. A square in a square sort of block in bright colours (and let's not forget a wee bit of HR). If you like I can do a couple more. If not, back to the drawing board. And do you prefer the navy or grey Essex linen for the background. I know what I prefer but this is about you, not me.
Camera toss. No Photoshop manipulations - only adjusting brightness
Part of a multi-photographer experiment using a graphic target as a source.
Not to be outdone by Nikon Nigel I present my heavily cropped slightly photoshopped splash experiment. I can take no credit for the set up and flash trigger that helped create this.
Have you ever had someone look at one of your photos and comment "Gee, you must have a really nice camera"?
A friend sent me an email the other day wanting to know if he should spend (a fortune) to buy a laundry list of new camera equipment because he wanted to "take better photos".
In response to that, I wanted to post this shot taken with a $199 "point and shoot" 3-megapixel digital camera. I keep it in my briefcase when I'm traveling on business and can't take my D90.
Would this shot have been better with my Nikon? Sure.... there is some noise in the sky due to using a high ISO on a cheap camera and the optics can't match a $1200 lens.... but the basic image would have been the same.
Becoming a better photographer is about learning to see differently, experimenting, learning, challenging yourself - not about how much equipment you purchase.

An experiment - and a short break from the gloom of the winter Gormleys ...
I recently found an interesting link on *kday*'s page to the Orton technique. It looked like a nice soft effect so I thought I'd give it a go. I know I haven't got it quite right yet, but I think it might be worth experimenting more.
But I'm still not sure ...
What do you think?
