This image was created from multiple exposures blended together in Photoshop CS6 layers using the "Lighten" blend mode. All exposures were taken with a single Paul C. Buff Einstein strobe with a 22" beauty dish attached to a Elinchrom boom arm and a 3-stop B&W ND filter attached to my lens. If you send me a FlickrMail message, I'll be more than happy to send you some information on mostly how I photograph this style and what equipment I use, along with some YouTube video links that help explain this process.

Last summer I was invited to take photos at a fundraising event in San Francisco. Many burners were entertained by musicians at Monarch Gardens for the fundraiser of Treble Makers, a Burning Man camp.
I processed a balanced, a photographic, and a realistic HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

„ Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen ! We are now live at the annual New Year Fundraising Gala, organized by the ICC.
We have some very interesting guests, who are willing to donate their money for various projects, that need financial help.
The most impressive apperance yet is definately Mr. Ordo Skirata ! Mr. Skirata is known for his extrodinary collection of suits and his gallant behaviour and today he has given his best to make an impression. Mr. Skirata arrived in his new personal submarine right here on peer 21 ! And now we can see him coming down the ramp of his vehicle. Mr. Skirata , may I ask you some questions ?“
„Of course you can, my dear and call me Ordo, please.“
„Oh, well....Ordo...what an apperance, what a show ! Where in the world did you acquire a submarine ?“
„As you might know, I recently finished my new movie, which is about a team of deep sea scientists. The submarine was part of the props and I thought it would be nice to use it for promotional matters.“
„Ah, I see, well I think a lot of people are willing to watch that movie.“
„Oh, they always want to see my movies...“
„The role of a captain seems to fit you quite well.“
„Oh, no, I don’t think so. People always say that, but I’m not a good captain in any way.“
„Now, let me asky you the last question. To which project will you be donating money today. I mean, there were over 63 projects to choose from.“
„You won’t belive it, but I couldn’t narrow it down on any of them, so I decided to donate a bit of money to every project...“
„To every project !? That is quite generous ! – Ladies and Gentlemen, that was Mr. Ordo Skirata ! Thank you very much Ordo !“
„It was a pleasure !“

Quite a difficulte MoC to start the year with. Originally it was planned to feature a bunch of lighting effects, but it ended up just having some LEDs in the building. The submarine was kind of a last minute idea, but it adds a funny element.
See more of Mr. Grievous and Ordo here.
Also have a look at the inside of the building here.
Hope you like it !

The 2011 Daisy Ball was a huge success. The funds raised will allow us to grow our register and save many more lives. With fabulous food, world class entertainment and inspirational real life stories, the Daisy Ball was certainly a night to remember.

Participated in the Achilles St. Patricks Day 5k race - walk/run. Froze my ass (-15°C) but it was worth it. I wanted to take more photos, but my hands refuse to co-operate and my legs kept on moving. Sometimes, you need to choose between being a participant in an event and being a photographer - it is hard to mix the two. I learn as I go.

On the 7th September I was lucky enough to get invited along to Little Princess Trust's Pink Car Rally.
It was the 1st day of the 6th annual pink car rally to raise money for real hair wigs for people with cancer.
All in all, it was a fantastic start to the rally, with day 1 starting at ESP Cars, Long Eaton (Derbyshire) and finishing up at Kingsmill Hospital, Sutton-in-Ashfield (Nottinghamshire)

To celebrate the collaboration between Hunter Boot and Glastonbury's official charity WaterAid – dedicated to providing the world's poorest people with access to clean water, hygiene and sanitation - a number of high profile celebrities were invited to customise and sign the limited edition WaterAid welly at this year's Glastonbury Festival. The wellies were designed exclusively for WaterAid and the world famous Glastonbury Festival to raise money for the 'Hunter for WaterAid' project, dedicated to helping people in remote regions of Madagascar.

On January 7th 2011, a fundraising event was organised at The Third Door (previously the famous Medina) to help the Forest Cafe, struggling financially, to keep open. It closed none less but reopened a few months later in a new location in Tolcross, and still is to this day.
