Not knowing when the next wave is going to hit you, perhaps is your best chance to stay positive. The only way to survive is battling back even if you are feeling down.
Shooting with a GoPro Hero is a totally strange experience for me. Being an optical view finder guy, I have never gotten used to compose a shot with electronic view finders on my mobile phone, or even my Powershot S100. Now, imagine shooting in front of your subjects without using your hand, and instead, strapping and composing the camera with your head. You only get to see the results after pulling still frames out of a long video recording. This is weird and totally out of my comfort zone, but at the same time I feel this as another challenge to get something unique and fun.
I have been experimenting with taking day shots and using Photoshop's "invert" feature to convert the shot to a negative image. Day then becomes night. This is essentially the same shot as "Adams Street" (Malta, Illinois) in my feed below. A gimmick in my opinion for sure but still interesting to play around with.
while hunting for another photo in my vast store of "stuff", I ran into the photo on the left. I don't know how, or when, or why, but I thought I'd to invert and see what was there. It's definitely me, I must have been working on making negatives at the time.
one of life's mysteries.
on the right is the inversion.
I tried searching on my stream, but it was quite a task. dunno whether I've used this photo before or not.
ah, I did find a version here from Sept 2016. I was working on oiled paper negatives.

NO MORE WAR! enough....
Karst Spring is a roaring torrent that gushes out of a wall of rock - it was lovely to be there on a 30C day, lots of cool plants there too.

the strangest thing about a hole is the edge.
If a hole is plugged, where is it?
And: and why are there no half holes ??

Because darkroom paper is orthochromatic, the colour response isn't what you might expect - the petals of this sunflower are actually yellow and the background should be black ...

My younger son assisted me here. He used my mobile phone flashlight to create the shadow around the branch on the table. :-)

I love negative space, which I think often provides breathing space and an aura of calm, so I was happy to see this week's theme. I fought the urge to choose a white background (believe me, it was a battle!) and instead chose 2 more of the pieces of painted paper I bought from an artist as 'byproducts' of her abstract work. The wooden vase is 1" high.
For this week's Crazy Tuesday group theme, Negative Space.
A crowdfunded pedestrian bridge! Bright yellow paint! Lovely!
Well, lovely on the internet, in photographs. In reality, we walked up some worn, peeling yellow stairs in absolute darkness... This place was not like the photographs.
It seems that, in the (only) 3 years since it was opened, the walkway has been left to rack and ruin. Grafiti and darkness? Not exactly the welcoming, publically-minded place it was meant to be.
