You want to hinge the mat to the backing board. I use tyvek tape for this, too. Simply cut a length that's not quite as long as the backing board and apply it up top with the two boards openeed up like a book.
In honor of Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day I thought I would have some fun making a version of a lens cap pinhole lens for my Canon A95. Unfortunately it didn't quite work out the way I had hoped. Or, I suppose I should say, my pictures' crapiness exceeded my expectations.
1. use some sturdy scissors to cut out a circle from the side of a soda can that fits over the end of the camera's lens.
2. use an extremely thin sewing needle to punch a hole through the middle of the disk.
3. sand off the extra metal from the back of the hole.
4. turn off the camera's 'auto off' function so it doesn't retract the lens while you have stuff taped to the end of it.
5. tape the disk to the end of the lens with masking tape. I used that blue painter's tape so it wouldn't leave a gummy residue on the lens. I also cut the tape in half lengthwise.
6. set the camera to aperture priority and set the aperture as far open as possible (f2.8 probably).
Now you're all set to take pictures the size of a pea. The problem with this setup is that the lens's diaphragm is in the way so you can only record an image in the space where the light passes through the aperture and since the pinhole isn't right up next to the diaphragm, the cone of light is pretty small. My pictures turned out all black except for a little circle of image in the middle. All the extra black tricked the camera into mis-exposing the image so i had to do lots of work in photoshop afterwards to add contrast and brighten the colors.
Pipe goggles, are a solutiont to seeing underwater, when you want to go very deep on one breath. Since every 10m pressure doubles and it take another volume of air to equalize fill the same space. You need eventually use a bit of your breath just replacing the air in your mask. Here is a pair of swim-goggles converted to deep diving equalizable goggles. I just added tubing to join the air spaces and have a tube go into the mouth for equalization.
Third, prop the pole over a convenient railing and tie it to the deck. I had to drill a hole in the handle to put the rope through. I didn't want it slipping off.
I use an infrared remote to trigger the camera. I need to invest in a 30-foot USB cable so I can trigger it from the computer and see what the framing is like.
I also made an ivory & tulle flower with *a lot* of layers. It's a little bigger/fluffier than the salmon one in the tutorial.
1.5 tsp unsanded white tile grout, 1 fl oz acrylic paint, plastic cup, plastic spoon, paintbrush, chalk, and surface to paint (I used Ikea Knuff wooden magazine files).
Check your progress often. The unique aspect of a monotype is that the plate can never be replicated.
Pasamos el hilo a la pinza contigua que viene a ser la pinza de origen; se sabe porque tienes el cabo del hilo colgando.
Y se añaden las claras a punto de nieve al resto de la crema, siempre mezclando con suavidad, y a mano, para que la crema no pierda consistencia.
Lissajous figures are interesting curves that occur in systems where oscillation happens in more than one direction, for example when a pendulum hanging from a string moves in the plane.
These pictures are from an easy persistence of vision approach to playing with Lissajous figures. Read more about this project here.
This is Maureen's ingenius method for slicing tofu very thin. She
slides a length of dental floss against two low-profile jewel cases.
Zippers don't deal well with 90-degree corners. Fold or notch the extra zipper tape on the inside corner to keep it from jamming the zipper when you try to open and close it.
Now we want to, without putting fingerprints on it, put the picture on the backing board to position it.
To make a nice dice, simply cut down through the onion, starting from the bottom, knife perpendicular to the board, moving towards the top of the onion. Every slice should create more and more diced onion.
These look good. Pull them off the plate to cool faster. Make sure your dog is in the kitchen watching. As soon as you can, take one and eat it in front of your dog. Sniff it, roll your eyes, and say "Oh! My goodness! This is SO GOOD!" Then (yes, seriously) eat it, slowly, making it crunch. It will taste like a combination of hot dogs and foam packing material, but your dog needs to know that it is still People Food.
In this podcast Joseph and I talk about how to take action and attract wealth. Being wealthy isn’t all about riches and such. It’s about living a better quality life and looking in the positive perspective. We talk a little about politics and about how Obama uses social media with his Obama Girl.
