It was so much fun photographing this lovely group of Fey women at the Carolina Renaissance Festival in Huntersville, North Carolina, USA. I love their amazing and fanciful garb.

I promise you that you’ll enjoy this one of you can view this in 3D! This is a perfect example of composing for depth, where the 2D image appears cluttered but the 3D image neatly places things in layers. Note: this is a cross-view 3D image!
The main image is cross-view 3D, meaning that you are supposed to cross your eyes to see the three dimensional effect. This is done by inverting the order of the images so the left side is on the right and vice versa. When you cross your eyes, the goal is to see three versions of the image – the middle one will consist of your left eye seeing the right image and your right eye seeing the left image in overlap, bringing the image to life. I usually start with the images filling no more than 20% of my field of view. Here’s a lengthier tutorial… and trust me, you’ll love what you see if you can get it to work: www.kula3d.com/how-to-use-the-cross-eyed-method.html
If you’ve got a stereoscope, VR headset or other viewer, here’s a version that works perfectly with these visual aids: donkom.ca/stereo/DKP_6686-parallel.jpg

You’re looking at a thistle, illuminated with high amounts of ultraviolet light. The camera is on a tripod and during a 30 second exposure I am repeated flashing a set of four UV flashes to give me the maximum output over a length of time. This is required because the 3D macro lenses I use have very small fixed apertures, around F/45 or so for this one. These apertures are so small that diffractions comes into play, but you don’t notice it as much when you overlap the two images for a proper 3D view.
The flowers fluoresce a wonderful assortment of blues while the petals take on a reddish rust colour, which I think is beautifully in line with their thorny appearance. In order to make sure that there is no visible light contamination, an image is taken without the flashes to ensure that it is completely black. The flashes themselves are a combination of two filters that block all visible light: Hoy U-340 and MidOpt BP365. The Hoya bleeds a bit of red light while the MidOpt filter bleeds a bit of purple, but paired together they block each-other’s light bleed and “purify” the resulting UV light. If anything bounces back to the camera, it’s because whatever surface the UV light hit has fluoresced into the visible spectrum for the camera to capture.
While it would be very difficult to tech 3D photography or UV fluorescence photography in groups, I’d happily book a private workshop with anyone that wants to come to my studio to learn how to make images like this. :)
Also, due to popular demand, I’ve opened up a second date for my day-long macro photography workshop held in my award-winning gardens and studio. Check it out, it could fill up quickly! www.donkom.ca/product/full-day-macro-workshop-july-28-2018/

Being Irish, I'm a dab hand at recognizing fairy pools, so please don't question me. Clearly the wee folk bathe here.

This whimsical artwork illustrates a young blonde Lollipop Faerie. She is poised as if ready to strike a spell with her lollipop! Curls seem to follow surround her everywhere she goes - from her curly hair, to the curly designs on her wings, to the curls on her mushroom, and of course the swirly curls of her ever-present lollipops!
I had taken three vertical shots of these bowers beneath the trees in the Faerie Glen near Uig on Skye. The vertical orientation didn't seem to communicate the tight confines within these sylvan dells. I arranged them into three panels instead, which seemed more interesting visually.

Taken at a Photography Club shoot at Stafford Castle last night. This was the first time this young lady had posed for a camera and was amazing, so natural she needed little direction.
The wings are the train of the dress thrown into the air to simulate wind.
The water, and reflection of course, are an addition.
