... or how LED's can be bright without emitting any light.
Believe it or not, but none of the components are powered...
A green laser beam hits the LED's from the right while a desk lamp is responsible for the white light from the top.
The parts lie on a plexiglas panel and there is a red printed circuit board (PCB) underneath.
The biggest LED's are 10 mm in diameter while the smaller one are 5 mm.
The first Advent, the first day of the last month of the year, has begun, the dark season. It's nice that we light a few lights ourselves, beautiful candles, sometimes with LEDs.
Giving a wonderful scent with baking cookies, a little walk and then allowed to gnaw off.
Beautiful 1st Advent ans HSS!
===============================
Der erste Advent, der 1. Tag vom letzten Monat im Jahr hat begonnen, die dunkle Jahreszeit. Es schön das wir uns selber ein paar Lichtlein anzünden, schöne Kerzen, manchmal auch mit LED`s.
Herrlichen Duft bescheren mit Plätzchen backen, ein kleiner Spaziergang und dann darf geknabbert werden.
Schönen 1. Advent und HSS!

Another test with some small LED's.... kinda enjoying playing around with them... although a really need to step up my game on learning to solder properly.
This was a test shot lit with one LED, and I like the results... the atronauts were just handy and it looked Alien-ish.
Simple shot stright outta camera (although cropped and watermarked).

Mud cracks and Milky Way....Another wake up at 12:30 am and hike out a little over a mile to a previously scouted spot in Death Valley National Park. We used our GPS to track back to the spot and got a composition as close as possible to what we saw during the day. This was my vertical composition. We used a combination of low light LED's to help illuminate the foreground along with some natural light from dawn. I began shooting the sky around 2:00am and kept going until 5:00am. This gave me some choices for the milky way in different positions as the earth rotates.

Hand blended and edited in Lightroom and Photoshop.
Having a go at lighting. This has got a couple of colour change LED's in the base. Inspired by Missing Brick and Legominded.
The vests and front helmet are non-lego but the colour was right. I need to find out where to buy that smart gun...
The new CMF ghoul seemed like a good fit for the "resin", not that you can really see it ;)
One of the most fascinating things to observe today in the Grand Central Terminal Main Concourse is what is above, the amazing constellation ceiling which in 1998 was restored to its original luster after years and years of smoking that occurred. The ceiling prior to that was actually brown and black, quite dismal. Though today New York City was amongst the first cities in the United States that banned cigarette smoking from almost everywhere except on the sidewalk, restaurants, bars and even parks included, when I was growing up and visited, it was hard to find a place without a smoker in close proximity. Grand Central where so many waited since 1913 for their trains was constantly filled with smoke from cigarettes and it took its toll on the artwork on the ceiling.
The ceiling or zodiac mural as it is often referred to is considered one of New York City’s most beloved works of art. The origin going back to 1912 when French pastelist and etcher Paul César Helleu created the concept with the zodiac signs from October to March. The zodiac signs that were included were Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini and Cancer. In addition some other constellations like Pegasus, Orion, Triangulum and Musca are also outlined on the ceiling in gold leaf and modeled by small gold leaf stars. The background in turquoise is supposed to simulate the blue-green skies seen over Greece and South Italy between October and March. The restoration and modernization (LED’s have replaced all the old lighting) have brought this treasure back so passengers and visitors alike can view them.

Well here it is, my entry to to the 2014 MocOlympics, based on the phrase "A Pirates Home Life".
The build features many new techniques for me. As well as Lifelites, with 11 individual LED's.
I tied for 4th place, a huge improvement over last year!
More photo's will be available on Mocpages, once the site starts working that is...
Have a wonderful day,

This last week technology finally caught up to the Saginaw Subdivision, this time south of Flint at South Holly. Now, bright LED's stand at Buckhorn Lake road, taking one of the last curves into Holly, and just one of the many more heading south for Plymouth. Shots like these aren't all that amazing, but I'm glad I took it, not knowing how soon these signals would be gone.
My weak take on 2001 Space Odyssey and first attempts at light painting.

White LED are gradually replacing the traditional orange tungsten street lighting around Dublin.
While the orange tungsten gave a very nice warm colour, the newer LED's give off a very sharp effect, almost like a bright star.
Its all lights & traffic action at Swords at Dublin Bus route 43 terminus.

Macro 1X con apilamiento de foco por control remoto del anillo de enfoque
Macro 1X by focus stacking using the focus ring remote control
2016-03-23_18-51-22 M=A R=8 S=4
Ingredientes:
-Nikon D600 + Nikor 105mm macro 1X
-Helicon Remote para control automático de la pila de foco mediante el anillo de enfoque (por medio de USB)
-Helicon Soft para apilamiento de foco (38 shots, Method A, R=8, S=4)
-Helicon lo puedes bajar a prueba durante 1 mes gratis, o una licencia para un año por 50€, controla casi todas las Nikon y Canon mediante USB. Existen otros proveedores de soft para stacking (apilamiento), p. ej. Zerene, ControlMyNikon o Canon, Combine Z, etc
-Opcional: impresora 3D (Up Plus 2) para la fabricación de focos, soportes, mesa de trabajo, etc. Puedes utilizar el sencillo 123D Design (free soft) para diseñar las piezas.
Receta:
-Montamos el bodegón con sujeto y fondo
-Lo iluminamos con 4 o 5 micro-focos de leds. Los focos se pueden diseñar e imprimir utilizando una impresora 3D y después montar los leds (alta luminosidad y 5300K), la alimentación es de 12vdc para grupos de 3 o 4 leds. La ventaja frente al uso de flash, es que se pueden dirigir los focos y componer la iluminación antes del disparo, además del volumen que se consigue jugando con la iluminación.
-Disparamos las fotografías utilizando, p. ej., Helicon Remote: Helicon controla el enfoque con el movimiento del anillo de enfoque antes de disparar cada foto, todo el proceso de toma de fotos es automático, se pueden ver videos en youtube
-Para 1X se necesitan de 20 a 100 fotos, según valor de f, focal utilizada y profundidad de campo necesaria, lo calcula el soft automáticamente. Se suele utilizar el punto dulce de la lente (normalmente en el entorno de f5.6) para optimizar los resultados
-Apilamos el stack de n fotografías utilizando Helicon Soft
-Utilizamos Lightroom o similar para eliminar “halos” y “artefactos”
-Una vez se tiene práctica, todo el proceso puede durar 30 min

Macro 1X by focus stacking using the focus ring control
How do you can do it :
Ingredients:
-Nikon D600 + 105mm macro nikor 1X
-Helicon Remote control for automatic focus stack using the camera focus ring (using USB)
-Helicon Soft Focus Stacking (56 shots, Method B, R = 8, S = 4)
-Helicon: You can download a free trial for 1 month, or a license for a year for € 50, it controls almost many Nikon and Canon via USB. There are other suppliers of soft for stacking, p. ex. Zerene, ControlMyNikon or Canon, Combine Z, etc.
-optional: 3D (Up Plus 2) printer to manufacture light bulbs, brackets, desk, etc. You can use the friendly 123D Design (free soft) for pieces designing.
Recipe:
-Ilumination with 4 or 5 micro-LED bulbs. The lighters can be designed and printed using a 3D printer and then mount the LED´s (high brightness and 5300K), the power is 12VDC for groups of 3 or 4 LEDs. The advantage over use of flash, is that you can positioning the lights and lighting make up before shooting, in addition to the volume to be achieved by playing with these lighting.
-Shot photographs using, p. eg Helicon Remote. Helicon controls the approach to the movement of the focus ring before the photo shot, the whole process of taking pictures is automatic, you can watch videos on youtube
-For 1X do you needed 20-100 photos, depending on value of f, focal and deep of field needed, automatically calculated by the soft. Often used the sweet spot of the lens (usually in the vicinity of f5.6) to optimize results
-Now we stack of shots using Helicon Soft
-We can use Lightroom or the like to remove "halos" and "artifacts"
-Once you have practice, the whole process can take 30 min
-And sorry my English, please.

Originally put up in 1933, along Commonwealth Avenue near its more famous cousin, the Citgo Sign in Kenmore Square, the Spectacular Shell sign today marks the Magazine Shell Station at the corner of Magazine Street and Memorial Drive since 1944 and today uses LED's rather than traditional neon. Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.
Originalmente colocado en 1933, a lo largo de Avenida Commonwealth, cerca de su primo más famoso, el letrero Citgo en Kenmore Square, el letrero Spectacular Shell hoy marca la estación Magazine Shell en la esquina de Calle Magazine y Memorial Drive desde 1944 y hoy usa LED en lugar de neón tradicional.

Tonight Atlanta celebrated "Light Up the Beltway", a huge 'parade' of walkers carrying Lanterns of many types along an inner city loop (unfinished) trail which follows an old, abandoned railroad track. I was shooting handheld with my Nikon Df as the people walked by in the almost pitch black night carrying their lanterns. Most of them are lighted with battery powered LED's, such as this one. This image was exposed at ISO 10,000 in order to stop the blur from the swinging lantern in the hands of a walking individual
There's a ferry, due into Poole around 21:30 through the summer months which I've been stalking for a good couple of years now. The nuisance of being down in Dorset only once or twice a month, the intersection of good light/darkness with it's scheduled arrival time, the wild dither either side of its arrival time and, of course, the interference of other plans have all made photographing it streaking across the horizon something of a challenge.
In recent months, however, I've seen a few successes, of which this is the first one I'm happy to post - even if the ferry isn't really a feature in the final shot.
The foreground is a "pillbox" machine gun post, marking Redend Point on Studland beach, lit with handheld flash and LED (see below). Bournemouth's light pollution ends up in lots of my Purbeck images as a stand in for natural sunset and I have to say I will miss it when they switch all the ghastly sodium vapour bulbs for clean white LED's in the near future.
As well as sharing a quick shot from my chasing of the ferry, this is a quick note to confirm that I'm alive despite recent inactivity on Flickr.
I'm juggling some ambitious travel plans for the month ahead with changing jobs and some other projects - all keeping me away from Flickr. I'll be catching up over the next couple of days then back late August with posts of my own - though hopefully I'll be around off and on keeping in touch with contacts.
Hope you're all fantastically well!
Info for Strobist:
The "pillbox" was zapped with a handheld Canon 600EX-RT over the course of the exposure, at 1/16 power - twice from camera left, hard along the cliff, four times from camera right, just on the edge of the sea, then eight times through the back window of the installation. The leaves in the tree above were then lit with ten seconds of sweeping light from a Lenser MT7.
Oh - and if you or your company are looking for a sales/marketing manager in the software as a service space... don't be shy - give me a shout on LinkedIn!

The beaux arts style Canada Life building on University Ave in Toronto, topped by its iconic weather beacon, was built in 1929 - 1931 in the Great Depression. The beacon, recently retrofitted with LED's, provides updated weather forecasts four times daily. Canada Life has been selling insurance since 1847. Processed in PS.
An earlier image of this building was posted in Aug 2020: www.flickr.com/photos/pixelsnap/50288457653/in/dateposted...

This is a single frame out of a 25 second timelapse. This is 736 images lapsed over about 4 hours. What a crazy night this was...I left an hour and a half late to get here. I had to stop and fix my head light halfway there because it burnt out. My GPS took me on a goofy route not once but twice in which slightly set me back! After I finally got there I had to carry all my gear a couple hundred yards across open water to get to the island but I finally made it. And it absolutely didn't disappoint. What an insanely awesome time. There were quite a few people around there so we had to wait pretty late to get very creative but once they were gone it was ours! A fellow photography brought his LED lights out and we hit it with every color imaginable which you can see in the time lapse. Between the LED's, the stars, the Perseids and the milky way and Andromeda at the end I hope you enjoy! Let me know what you think in the comments below!!

One of many Ford Mondeo Dog Units used by Essex Police. This one was seen parked on Waltham Road, Boreham after the officer stopped and spoke to me about standing over the bridge. Very nice officer who even let me take, and upload a photo of him with the car :)
Kennington Police Station, London.
Many thanks to the officers for letting me get the photos... And for putting the lights on for me :D
A old shape Volvo V70 seen turning onto Cowdray Avenue after a wait for a suspect vehicle. Not sure of the outcome.
Apologies for the poor quality. Forgot to pack my 50-200mm lens so had to make do with the 18-55mm.
One of a handful of 11reg Essex Police Ford Mondeo Dog Units. I believe this one is based at Sandon Dog Base, Chelmsford.. It was seen here parked at Lakeside Bus Station, Thurrock.

Hi there!
(The Japanese characters mean The big apple in Japanese I hope? I thought it looked cool :))
This is probably my biggest and most detailled MOC since I started Flickr four years ago. The roof technique the food shop is from Andrew Somers (Check out his build, note added in the photo!) The water (glass) technique is from Joseph Z. (Checkout his build too, note added in the photo! :)) Besides that everything in this build is my own design. I did modify Andrew's roof design a bit ;) The build is illuminated by different LED's Oh and please check out my Instagram too! For behind the scenes, updates and more! (www.instagram.com/eddy_plu/)
