“And the seasons they go ’round and ’round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We’re captive on the carousel of time
We can’t return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game.” ~ Joni Mitchell
Have to share a story about this shot, the carousel is inside a mall and of course I had two problems A. nobody was using it and B I knew I needed to do a long exposure and I had no tripod! The solution to A was asking the operator nicely if she could pretty please run the carousel without people, and B was solved using a table, my tablet, a to go container, my cell phone and then the lenscap :) I engaged the self timer then backed away and hoped the thing didn't get bumped. The slowest shot I got was 1.6 seconds at f/22

I guess it's not every day a Bee Wolf lands on your lens cap while you're trying to take a photo of it!
I am such a copy cat. But my friend Sue (VA2PA)

started taking shot of the same object for one year. Yeah - I wont be able to do one year.. so I am going to go for 1 month. I chose to use my Nikon lens cap as the same object.. dur.. like you can't tell. We will see how this goes.
I often loses photographic equipment, so I had to buy a new lens cap. I received een orange one. Excellent for this challenge I thought. I made this photo on my lightbox.
Thanks for taking time to comment and fave my work. I really appreciate.

Thanks for checking out my work!
I worked from home today, didn't go anywhere more interesting than the grocery store, it's almost the witching hour and I had no picture of the day.
How many days left in 2016?
Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Rotterdam,NS, Central Station Roof with support beams & Y shaped pilars and photovoltaic elements and CTA's (uncut)
R'dam Central station was- a perfect spot to test out the Olympus Lenscap Fisheye. This is one of the first outdoor shots I made with this little fish-eye lens and number 507 of the Rotterdam architecture album.
This is the cap of my macro lens and learnt that messing around with the camera's light metering can bring out some interesting effects.
Someone kindly suggested on my last shot that another fly looking across might be interesting... so I gave it a shot. It certainly works for me =). Thank you Gary! And, credit where credit is due: I really liked this shot by Jemenu so wanted to have a play too! So this is, I think, a pair of greenbottles (not bluebottles, I promise you they look green compared to the bluebottle I compared them to at the time!), they're rather mundane creatures but not without a certain aesthetic appeal when you look at them like this. A blue background: a different blue to last time which is gradiented towards purple. I wanted a bit more vibrancy and I think this gave it to me!
Posing this wasn't easy. I used the Watkins & Doncaster Insect Examination Stage with some cork cut out in a 2 cm by 1/2 cm by 1/2 cm strip mounted at the tip. Then I cut a groove into the cork for each mounted insect according to the angle which I needed for the shot. Each of these insects were mounted on a thick black ent pin. Then I fiddled, swore and cursed for 30 mins to get them parallel and in the positions I wanted, cutting off the end of the pins that went beyond the cork so that it could all fit into the chip cone diffuser. These chip cones are handy because they're shaped so that they diverge so allow relatively big things inside the diffuser (mine just sits on the end of the lens with a custom reverse lenscap made from a black party popper) but they're also the right shape so that there's stilll enough omnidirectional light of a similar intensity (because of similar distances, not quite a perfect hemisphere but better than other things I tried). With close flashes I get away with 1/32 and 1/64.
Technical: Gradient in CS4 piped into SmallHD using HDMI matrix used as ambient lighting for the background; strobing has rear curtain sync. 1s exposures; 121 photos into 34 sub stacks, retouched from Dmap composite, finished off with CS4 & Topaz Detail. Step size of 30µm, polystyrene chip cone diffuser. Cropped then resized 10% to lessen noise. Componon 35 f/4 reversed on flat bellows so about 1:1 ish; 2 Pentax 540& 1 Pentax 360 off camera flashes triggered wirelessly by Metz 58 II cam-connected controller; all manual trailing synch to eliminate flash ghosting, strobes manual at @1/32; perpendicular to flys at @2,6.30 &10 o'clock.

Shek Kip Mei (?), Kowloon, Aug 2007
My own hastily purchased ten dollar umbrella balanced on my head, handle held between shoulder and cheek (and beginning to leak), I somehow managed to fumble my lenscap off and grab a shot as the cloudburst hit full stride. 2007's record breaking heatwave was officially over and I now had wet socks.
I didn't realise it at the time, but this is an image that can only come together under certain conditions. The frost is very rare and only happens a few days of the year and the light will only hit the tree for about 2 minutes before the frost begins to melt. Even if the forst doen't melt, it won't be long before the background is completely washed out with light. I doubt this image will happen again this year.

I finally got some (thrifted, vintage) smock aprons -- this one is much too big but is my favourite as it has plenty of pockets for keys and lenscaps and lipsticks and extra spoons and tissues...AND...it has daisies on it. I like daisies.
Mount Shasta, CA- Lenticular clouds are the first to catch the light of a new day this first day of June.
After an incredibly long, hot hike I was rewarded with a glimpse beneath the lava field in to this wonderful, glowing Skylight. Unfortunately I didn't find the surface lava I had hoped for, but I am more than happy with this image.

Friend and kick-ass photographer Kevin Mcneal at Ruby Beach, WA.
I first met Kevin through a photography contest site when I was just starting out with photography. I liked his work so much that I wrote him and asked if I could wash his car or mow his lawn in exchange for photography tips. He laughed, and told me I didn't have to do that. He's been kind enough to give me great tips along the way, and on this trip, he was teaching me about my new 5D. I found that the waves at Ruby Beach can sneak up on you. I rode the 3 hours home in wet pants.
Please do yourself a favor and check his awesome landscapes. His Newest Editions and Oregon Coast portfolios are my favorite. If you happen to be on a ferry and see the WA State Visitors Guide, that cover shot is by Kevin.

I love that strobism can be so quick and easy sometimes. For this shot, I had a 3373/SB-26/white umbrella, all of which I had carried down on the side of my lowepro, and just hand held the lightstand from upper left for the shot. It only took about a minute or so to get in a decent portrait before getting down to business....landscape:)

My head's kind of wonky this morning so I can't come up with a title.
Taken in the driver's seat (left in the U.S.) with the camera in my other hand. So why is "Nikon" readable?
Just being silly and having more mirror fun. Happy Nifty Fifty Friday!
