Cloud-appreciation, plain and simple: an abstract pattern of white clouds on a deep blue background.

This 13ft Rope Lamp Took me almost 3hrs to complete. I can see why they sell for over $100 on esty.com. A unique lamp for a rugged look in almost any room. I'll probably turn this into a part time money maker.

Jesús Rafael Soto (1923–2005)
Penetrable de Chicago
1971
Plastic filaments and metal hanging hardware
"Renowned abstract artist Jesús Rafael Soto was a pioneer—and ultimately lifelong practitioner—of the Op and kinetic art movements, which prioritized both optical illusion and physical dynamism. After training in Caracas, Soto moved to Paris in 1950, where he participated in the seminal 1955 group exhibition Le Mouvement at Galerie Denise René, considered a crucial launching point for postwar experimentation with interactivity and perceptual experience. Believing that perception involves the entire body and not just the mind, Soto and his peers sought to revise the fundaments of how an audience engages with art.
In 1967 Soto created his first so-called penetrable, a kind of luminous environmental sculpture that not only invites but in fact compels audience participation. One of only about 30 ever produced by the artist, this iconic installation is on display for the first time since 1986; an early example of Soto's signature environments, Penetrable de Chicago presents thousands of transparent filaments hanging from the ceiling in a rectangular formation. Visitors are thus invited to enter an immersive field of synthetic tubes that shimmer and shift in response to every moment. 'We are in the world like fish in water,' Soto once explained. In keeping with such a metaphor, his multisensory penetrables render our passage through space fully palpable." (exhibit text)
Yes, new tool for me. I'm new to this, so a bit of youtube and try/error is going to take a place...but it will be fun for sure
This is a filament of a lit flashlight bulb - a 3-D Maglite. Taken with polarizer, smallest aperture, and fastest shutter speed to reduce brightness. And oh, a Raynox DCR-250 macro lens too!
Cracked light bulb.
Hayley pluged the lamp into the wall and I shot the results.

My bedside table lamp is misbehaving a lot lately, got two light bulbs broken in two weeks. sigh... running low on light bulbs!
I've been dying to get a good shot of these lightbulbs in my bathroom... but I still don't think this is good enough.
Oh well.
Power supply for 6V filament of valve Line pre-amp. It could be use in a Phono stage due its ultra low noise.
Sha Tin, Hong Kong - June 23rd, 2011
Un-retouched and shot under a blackening, post-typhoon sky.
I've become entranced by the thready filaments and almost prehistoric beauty of banyan trees.
I'll add more until the inspiration falls away or I find a greater temptation to explore.
Going to remove the center E and convert to a C core, then use it to wind a filament transformer for the electron microscope project.
The core needs to be large physically because the filament will be placed at an extremely high potential. In order to prevent arcing to the core, the secondary must be very well insulated and possibly even immersed in oil.
