half frame camera with a 32mm f1.7 manually focusing lens. Focusing is from infinity to 2.5 feet. A selenium meter around the lens automatically sets the correct aperture and shutter speed in program fashion -- 1/30 at f1.7 to 1/800 at f 16.
Made a pinhole "lens" for my Bronica EC, using a Pentax extension tube set that screws into the threads of the Bronica. Simple thick-tinfoil pinhole, measured using my scanner for accuracy. f/369 is the aperture. Exposure is 1/2 sec in full sun, as you can see by the man moving in the background. Shot on Fuji HGII ISO 800 220 format film. See what it looks like in non-pinhole version here. www.flickr.com/photos/shampoo_cam/4667849334/

Hey Soul Sister by Train
Hey, hey
Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains
I knew I wouldn't forget you, and so I went and let you blow my mind
Your sweet moonbeam, the smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided, you're the one I have decided who's one of my kind
Hey soul sister, ain't the Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey
Just in time, I'm so glad you have a one-track mind like me
You gave my life direction, a game show love connection we can't deny
I'm so obsessed, my heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you're Madonna, and I'm always gonna wanna blow your mind
Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
The way you can't cut a rug, watching you's the only drug I need
You're so gangsta, I'm so thug, you're the only one I'm dreaming of
You see, I can be myself now finally, in fact there's nothing I can't be
I want the world to see you be with me
Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do tonight,
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey
Tonight
Hey, hey
Tonight

Just a picture for a camera gear discussion... This is my SX40 with a 58 mm adapter, collapsible lens hood, and center-pinch lens cap attached.
Just got the Canon EF 100mm f2.8L Macro IS USM lens just testing her out.
No adjustments made to this photo it looked good enough to me as is.

Laat 'm er niet op zitten.

Don't let it sit on it.
I am always dropping my lens caps....this time I was quick enough to catch it.
More 50mm fun. Shot under fluorescent lighting and came out looking cold. I raised the temp before converting it to jpeg from RAW. Outside of that there has been no post processing.

Sur la Pointe du Yaudet, à l'embouchure du Léguer, naquit une cité d'importance, connue au Moyen Age sous le nom de Vetus Civitas. Vieille Cité ou Vieux Monastère, selon les étymologies, elle sera ensuite nommée Ar Yoded en breton, Le Yaudet en français. Il est toutefois une autre étymologie possible quant à l'origine du nom de cette ville antique : "yeod" (herbe) et "er ed" (blé) ou "yeoded" par contraction pourrait signifier aussi "blé qui poussa de l'herbe". Cette étymologie pourrait être justifiée par l'occupation ancienne du site par une population de cultivateurs ...
La légende raconte qu'Enora, la chaste épouse de Saint-Efflam, partie à sa recherche en Armorique, vit son esquif de cuir échouer dans la baie de la Vierge, retenu par les pierres en fermant l'entrée à marée descendante. Un monastère fut dès lors fondé à cet endroit. Il n'y subsistera que du 5ème au 8ème siècle et fut sans doute à l'origine d'une légende qui voulait que le Yaudet fut le premier évêché, éphémère, du Trégor. Les pierres d'une première église remontent au 11ème siècle de notre ère, sur les fondations d'un temple romain dont elle récupéra certains matériaux . Composée de deux nefs et six travées, elle subit des modifications du 13ème au 17ème siècle et sera détruite en 1855. C'est à la requête des Kerninon que la chapelle actuelle fut érigée et achevée en 1861, sur les fondations de l'ancien lieu de culte.
De style Beaumanoir avec clocher-mur et tourelle d'accès, elle est constituée d'une nef à six travées et d'un choeur. Elle a intégré certains des éléments d'architecture de l'ancien édifice.
Il en est ainsi du retable, représentation plutôt rare, quoique présente en certains lieux de culte en Armorique, d'un des deux courants de la mystique chrétienne. Cet ensemble naïf figurant une vierge couchée, amputé des volutes d'encadrement du lit, date du 17ème siècle. L'origine d'un tel symbole est toutefois bien plus ancienne, remontant à l'occupation romaine. Afin d'éviter un affrontement avec les populations locales que les enseignements druidiques avaient marqués, ils produiront dans le temple qu'ils bâtirent sur ce lieu un tableau représentant la déesse Cybèle couchée et allaitant un enfant. L'église du Yaudet devenue chapelle au cours des ans fait depuis longtemps l'objet de pélerinages ainsi que d'un pardon annuel. Presque cachée par des pins lui faisant ombrage, elle trône dans un enclos paroissial datant du 16ème siècle, ouvert sur une porte monumentale et bordé de trois échaliers.
I did it!!
Upgraded to the Canon 7D with the EFS 15-85 mm IS USM lens...WOW!!!
I'll be breaking in my new baby during a trip to Texas next week...can't wait!

Housekeeping!
A totally different shot than I planned.
Yesterday I collected some grass seeds to spray with mist and do macro shots, the water just soaked in rather than making nice droplets.
I thought I had one in the bag and went on to clean some lenses and watch photography tutorials, messing about I took this and quite liked it.
Funny how some pictures come about. :)
Canon AE-1 film SLR with hooded 50mm prime lens, piggyback mounted on Celestron telescope tube, for wide-field tracking astrophotography.
Just a lens cap? Well yes, but this is the first try of a macro photo. This was taken with a Leica 60mm Elmarit macro lens from the R-Series. And it seems to work on a Canon body.
Bullion? Gold plated badge? No, its a close-up of the centre of a black plastic, silver painted Nikon lens cap (62mm thread diameter off of the Nikkor 105mm micro lens used for the picture). It was then treated with a filter in Photoshop Elements and then tone mapped with Photomatrix Pro.

Well, here is the comparison between the two different dia. 52mm lens caps I bought from local suppliers.
Left: The generic lens cap
Right: The Nikon lens cap
Both lens caps fit properly, BUT the Nikon lens cap clips on a lot better, with a firm 'click'. One needs to press harder to release it from the lens than the generic lens cap which has a much softer 'mechanism' and does not 'click' in as much as the brand-name lens cap. The Nikon lens cap looks and feels better made.
Price difference:
Generic: AUD 5.95 (approx. USD 4.70)
Nikon: AUD 19.00 (approx. USD 15.00) Ouch!
Is it worth it? I prefer the Nikon lens cap. I have to admit that paying AUD 19.00 for one of these things hurt and I bought three of them! The lens cap I lost was a generic lens cap and it makes me wonder whether it just fell off when dangling the camera from my wrist strap with the camera and lens brushing against clothing or the lens cap not properly put on.
Ahh... for the love of Nikon and Nikon lens caps !
There are times when one needs a sense of humour. :D
