Back in the days when nearly all men wore a hat this little Portable Hat Brush kept the hat in tip top condition :)
It measures 2 inches by 2 1/2 inches and was possibly kept in a wallet or top pocket. Natural bristles held in a thin leather pouch. Circa 1930's.

I do not know which is harder: using a lighter with your left hand or using a camera with your left hand.
I do not know about this one. I just know that I feel ill.

“here was the secret of happiness, about which philosophers had disputed for so many ages, at once discovered; happiness might now be bought for a penny, and carried in the waistcoat-pocket; portable ecstasies might be had corked up in a pint-bottle; and peace of mind could be sent down by the mail.”
― Thomas de Quincey, Confessions of an English Opium Eater
Philip Banks cracked out two of his strobes to shoot nighttime roster shots of the ex-Chessie GP15T's in Seneca, IL. While Phil shot at a blistering 1/250th of a second I used his lights as fill-flash to paint this 20 second exposure.

note book / 2007
(6 months of random assorted notes sketches collages and ideas from 3 years ago. no rhyme or reason really.)
First, my apologies for posting so infrequently lately. Everything is fine, I've just been a little busy and haven't had as much time to devote here as I would like to. Hopefully I can get more consistent again soon.
I didn't take many portraits of Scotch after his surgery in large part because I wanted him to just concentrate on getting better and was a bit stressed out from the whole ordeal. After 17 total trips to the vet and surgery facility in 2016, he's off to a great start here in 2017 at least. He's been healthy, going on multiple long walks a day and is generally just a really happy 13 year old. This portrait comes from the same shoot as my previous Scotch post and I was mostly very pleased with all the results. I picked an evening where he was both calm and alert and didn't have to rely on him napping or sleeping like the previous year. With a handful of tiny treats, I was able to move him around where I wanted. He may be deaf but he still knows a few hand symbols we've used since he was a puppy. He'll still go to where I point, will still sit when I hold up a fist and will lie down when I lower that fist.
For this capture, I held a treat by my face and let him stare away for a few shots before I threw it to him. All dogs look differently when they want a treat or food--my Rottweiler would stare at and inch closer to the food while drooling or snatch it when he thought he had an opening and my old miniature pinscher would growl and bark at me (he was a monster)--but Scotch either figured out my weakness when he was young or simply lucked out. What he does when I'm eating my own food or holding a treat is stare me right in the eyes--this is a dog who hates eye contact--and just look at me like this while I eat, never shifting his gaze to the food. it's impossible to ignore and say no to...and I rarely do. It's so effective, in fact, that I'l typically push aside on my plate the last bite and give it to him so he won't look sad when I put my fork down on an empty plate.
This was also the first time I got to test out my new manfrotto tripod and vanguard pistol grip head. The tripod was a christmas gift to myself and finally gave me a lightweight, sturdy and portable option. It also allows me to get the camera extremely low to the ground like my old vanguard Alta Pro 163AT which is what I've used for the majority of the photographs I've posted here. The head is a vanguard GH-300t which has a built in shutter release if I want an extra hand verses holding a wireless remote. Oddly, my old set up was a vanguard tripod with a manfrotto pistol grip but this new setup seems much better to me. Like the previous post, Scotch is up on a chaise in my brother's office with a black foam board behind him to create the background and let me use a quicker shutter speed. While previous portraits have been favorites as I learned to photograph him and figure out how to achieve the look I wanted, I think these last two have been my favorites overall. These shots have more detail and better poses and the remote shutter on the pistol grip worked surprisingly well and sped up the time needed between the focusing, arrangement and setup of each shot.
Again, sorry for the infrequent posts and I hope everyone is having a great weekend :)
