It's said the first thing most people do when they get a new camera is take a picture of it's lens cap. I thought I one-up this by taking a picture of a lens cap AND a lens.

I never intended this shot to be used. This is my first test shot out of the camera for an idea I had that involved shooting my hat. We had an All-Staff meeting today and I came home with a sense of Clone Wars pride. I wanted to shoot my Clone Wars crew hat á la Doodman style, and tested what the framing was going to be.
But all that went out the window when I got this gem. I feel in an odd way that it's a glimpse into my process. I almost always do this. I take the lens cap off, put it in my mouth, check exposure and take a test snap. It feels like this is what it looks like when I'm working out a shot in my head. I think of nothing other than the moment at hand; the feel, the light, the composition.
This is what chance is all about. This is luck in its purest form. This is what real life feels like for me.

PRINCE JUNIOR, Japanese 6x6 TLR from the nineteenfifthies.
This TLR came with a very unusual lenscap which has 2 mirrors. Funny !
Both lenses take 32mm clamp-on filters/hoods.
Also shown is the exposed rollfilm which was found inside the camera.
It's a roll of Kodak Plus-X Professional Panchromatic B&W film.
Pity i don't have any development-gear. Would love to find out if there are
any interesting things on that film.
14mm samyang lens @f8
it was quite dark, so as to not getting a totally dark image I had to leave the shutter open for some time (suprise - huh?) - and since I didn't have a tripod, I used my bike-helmet and the lenscap...
the lights on the foreground was kindly provided by my cycle-lights
top row - modern markings and brand name advertising, no way anyone can consider them even remotely discreet;
bottom row - not yet 20 yrs. old lens cap - strangely, it was enough then in a way of branding one's name; seems the whole world has slipped for a worse since then
This is a Canon EOS 35mm FILM camera (NOT digital). The lens is a 55mm Quantaray CN AF (missing lenscap). Comes with a nice Targus case. Asking $75 for the whole package but feel free to make an offer.
The Canon Ultrasonic lens cap provides an excellent opportunity to work on focus stacking. To focus stack, I used: Canon 5DMarkII on carbon fiber tripod, AlienBee800 strobe, snoot, EF100mmF/2.8L-IS, Sekonic lightmeter. Images were merged in Photoshop CS5.
Well, I did drop it but thankfully it wasn't lost!

at this point i've completely given up on watching Hancock on the airplane since Air Canada decided that 1/3 of the movie wasn't appropriate and clipped it out, while the remainder of it was (beeeeeeppped) out. oh well....

I was working with Andrea and we were talking about Worldwide Pinhole Camera Day, and she asked why can't she just put a pinhole lenscap on her Canon SX10? At first I didn't think it was possible but wasn't sure as to why, so I thought we'd run a quick experiment.
These images are the result.
We then tried it on her SX10, but no luck even with manual focus we managed only to make shots of the pinhole, nothing like these images here.
Why is it so? (ghostly echos of Proffessor Julius Sumner Miller) I just don't know.

The Auto White Balance of Eva's new Nikon D3100 still can't cope with downlights. I had to manually set the white balance with a card.

fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pont_du_Port_%C3%A0_l'Anglais
Le pont du Port à l'Anglais est un pont suspendu avec haubans entre Alfortville et Vitry-sur-Seine. Il a été construit entre 1912 et 1927.
Sa portée principale est de 124 m pour une longueur totale de 230 m. le tablier est en acier et les pylônes en béton.
Ce pont suspendu est situé à proximité d'un barrage et deux écluses situées sur les communes d'Alfortville et de Vitry-sur-Seine. Son nom vient de la famille Langlois, premiers propriétaires des terres. Ses trottoirs, qui respectent l'esprit traditionnel des sites éclusiers, permettent de profiter d'une vue panoramique et d'observer les péniches qui entrent et sortent de l'écluse.
My last night was entertained by a fantastic light show in the heavens which lasted well into the night.
So, being persistant and determined when it comes to photography, I decided to try my hand at my first attempt to catch Lightning on Camera.
So, I went out onto the terrace of the hotel, set up my tripod, cable release etc and bulbed till I almost dropped! I finaly ended up with this image. A good end to my holiday.
(the real end to my holiday happend next day when my minolta 24mm lenscap got washed away in the sea!)

Playing with the Funleader 18mm f/8 Cap Lens. It looks rather comical on a Z 9 (picture here: flic.kr/p/2oWy6PE).
