Rosa Khutor Ski Resort

Nothing prettier than fresh powder on a sunny winter day. I had to wait 40 minutes before I got a shot with the peak exposed but I surely did not mind.

Snow covered glacial erratic boulders on Rannoch Moor with Buachaille Etive Mòr in the background.

 

Certainly got my snow fix in the Highlands, couldn't have asked for better really, which is weird as I'm usually so unlucky with holiday weather.

 

Enjoyed learning about the geology of the Glen. Collapsed Volcanoes, Glaciers, Water Errosion. Really interesting stuff!

 

Left my heart in the Highlands. Finding the rainy drabness of Somerset hard to stomach after the spectacular landscape of Scotland.

An Alta ski patroller, last weekend, on the job. Working in Little Cottonwood Canyon, one of the most avalanche-prone zones on the planet, means a lot of very hard and dangerous work. On the other hand, Alta ski patrollers get to make first tracks on some of the most-coveted in-bounds powder there is. And they deserve it.

Another cracking evening out with a bunch of ne'er do well lightpainters, this time at Magpie Mine in Derbyshire. This is a powder house dating to 1840 where gunpowder was kept for blasting in the lead mine.

 

Thanks to Rob Bates for patiently posing; it was pointed out that we should have swapped Rob for a midget.....

Something very, very different from me today. A client (aka the wife) wanted some makeup photos, to hang, and this was one of the ideas we discussed; a couple of makeup brushes loaded with powder, creating a cloud as they brushed together (by no means unique).

 

This has been an extremely challenging shoot, and took a few attempts, over a couple of days to get right, and this isn’t necessarily the best of the bunch!

 

I set up in the garage, as I knew I was going to create a mess, and originally used my larger studio lights, but their flash duration was too long, resulting in movement blur. And so, I then went with my smaller strobes, set to minimum power, which provided not only a shorter flash duration, enabling me to freeze the motion, but also enabled me to fire in burst mode.

 

I also had to counter the problem of the powder staying up in the air long enough before it fell. The options to counter this, involved using a hairdryer blowing from beneath, and also having the brushes horizontal, rather than vertical. Each option provided pros and cons.

 

And of course there was the challenge to get the timing of the brushing to coincide with the trigger. And remembering to clean the stems of the brushes between each shot.

 

And what you see is, other than basic post processing, is what was shot, in a single take, with no additional AI guff!

 

So challenging but great fun!

We tried to make a photo of Alessandra with powder flying around - was lots of fun and I think the photos worked out nicely:) I really missed that we did not have a black background, could have done even more)

Each shot fired by the USS Alabama’s 16-inch guns needed six bags of powder, each of which weighed almost 100 pounds. This is one of the powder elevators.

Da diese Vögel als Aas- und Schädlingsvertilger äußerst nützlich sind, liegt es im Interesse der Menschen, sie vor Verfolgung möglichst gut zu schützen. Ihrer weichen Unterschwanzdecken des Brutgefieders wegen, die in der Modeindustrie und seit je her in der Kriminalistik Verwendung finden, sind diese Vögel in manchen Gegenden stark bejagt und gefährdet.

 

Noch heute werden zur Sichtbarmachung eines Fingerabdrucks bei Tatortaufnahmen der Kriminalpolizei diese Federn verwendet. Mittels der Federn wird Rußpulver auf den möglichen Spurenträger aufgetragen. Die Federn ermöglichen einen schonenden Auftrag des Pulvers, so dass Rußspuren in den abgedrückten Papillarleisten hängen bleiben

Since these birds as carrion and pest exterminator are extremely useful, it is in the interest of the people, to protect them from persecution as well. Because of their soft undertail coverts of the breeding plumage , in the fashion industry and since the forth in the forensics find use, these birds are heavily hunted in some areas and endangered.

 

These springs are still used to visualise of a fingerprint at crime scene photographs of the judicial police. By means of springs, carbon black powder is applied to the possible carrier of traces of. The springs allow a careful job of powder so that traces of soot in the pressed down papillary strips stuck
