I am being headache with my design for the final project in this week. I use to modify the idea even in last minute, always want to make things perfect. I understand this is not realistic, but at least want to see a better result. Personally I think a designer somehow like a chef cooking a steak that he should knows whether it is too raw or over-cooked. I am still learning to be a top chef.
A small project consisting of setting up a shoot with random passersby and getting them to pull a face.
All participants where informed of the project and asked if they wanted to be a part. To see the rest of the project you can visit cambrils.tumblr.com/
Lighting is provided by a softbox umbrella camera right and a bare strobe for hair light.
Seen in a driveway in Germantown, WI. Not the place you'd expect to find a heap like this, meaning it's a project for some middle aged guy who needs to feel cool again.
I couldn't think of a thing to photograph today so I wandered behind some buildings and found this. I added some textures and darkened it quite a bit.

Seen behind the reception desk at work. It seems wrong to see daffodils in June when it isn't spring anywhere in the world as far as I know. But it looked so simple and elegant that I had to snap it.

Nos. 2 of 5
Germany - Lubeck: Schusselbuden.
On the Schusselbuden corner of Mengstraße, and opposite the courtyard of St. Mary's Church lies a three part structure with facades of the 18th century: the Pastorat known as die Wehde, after which the Blockbinnenhof Wehdehof is also named.

Slightly edited shot of the preparations for 'Project Space Invader'. Taken with my HTC Desire mobile phone.
Earlier this week I've started 'Project Space Invader', made possible by some spare time I've had at work, and I am proud and happy to report that the Production-stage has been finalized, and I am now the excited owner of a Post-it's, paper-based (the Environment!), funky-wicked, mega-sized, yellow Space Invader, that I intend to hang up all over the best city in the world, shoot it, and then set it free somewhere, so that the next person who likes it, can have some fun with my little Alien :)

Back Story.....................
Many of you have become familiar with the Trap Line Project.
An hour ago I went out to check on my trap lines.
Specifically to give my friend Larry his monthly medicine.
Larry's in bad shape but he was in worse shape not long ago.
One eye appears to be slightly better but his coat is still fairly rough due to mange and worms.
Not to worry, he is improving ever so slowly.
Thank you all for leaving a message and your on going support.
Thank You.
Jon&Crew.

Greyfriars Kirk
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Greyfriars Kirk, Edinburgh)
Greyfriars Kirk, today Greyfriars Tolbooth & Highland Kirk, is a parish kirk (church) of the Church of Scotland in central Edinburgh, Scotland. Its name reflects a pre-Reformation association with the Franciscan order (the Grey Friars).
It is one of the oldest surviving buildings built outside the Old Town of Edinburgh, having been begun in 1602 and completed c. 1620. It sits to the south of the Grassmarket, adjoining George Heriot's School (founded in 1628).
Greyfriars Kirk has an important place in the history of the Scottish Covenanters. In 1638 the National Covenant was presented and signed in front of the pulpit. In 1679, some 1200 Covenanters were imprisoned in the Kirkyard pending trial.
In the mid 19th century, the Rev Robert Lee, then minister of Old Greyfriars led a movement to reform worship, introducing the first post-Reformation stained glass windows in a Presbyterian church in Scotland, and also one of the first organs. He received considerable criticism at the time, but most of his proposals were subsequently widely accepted in the Church of Scotland.
For many years, Greyfriars Kirk was divided into two places of worship — Old Greyfriars and New Greyfriars. These two congregations united in 1929 and the historic church building was subsequently extensively restored. The interior dividing wall between the two former separate sanctuaries was removed as part of these renovations, completed in 1938.
Given the depopulation of Edinburgh's Old Town in the early part of the 20th century, many neighbouring church buildings were closed and their congregations united with Greyfriars, including the New North Church and Lady Yester's Church. In 1979 the congregation united with the former Highland Tolbooth St John's Church (this building on the Royal Mile is now used as "The Hub", the headquarters of the Edinburgh International Festival society). The post-1979 united congregation continues to use Greyfriars Kirk, with Sunday services in English at 11am and in Scottish Gaelic at 12.30pm. (This is the only Church of Scotland congregation in the east of Scotland with regular services in Gaelic). The current minister (since 2003) is the Reverend Dr Richard Frazer.
Greyfriars Tolbooth & Highland Kirk is part of a Local Ecumenical Partnership (LEP) with St Columba's-by-the-Castle (Scottish Episcopal Church) and Augustine United Church (United Reformed Church).
Four ministers and one elder of Greyfriars Kirk have been Moderators of the General Assembly:
* George Kay, 1759
* William Robertson, 1763
* Robert Henry, 1774
* James Ogilvie, 1918
* Alison Elliot, 2004
The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining domes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.
Threw in a little orange. Hope that works.

You've been working for weeks on this and you're really optimistic about it, but when you arrive at the theater the day everything has to pay off and you see the empty seats looking at you, then you realize you have a responsibility.
Hours of preparation pass, really quick, and a uncomfortable feeling grows in your stomach. The last moments before the show starts arrive, sooner than expected, and there is nothing you could do about that. The murmur of the waiting public, too many people, annoys you, and as if it were a fiction story, the rain has come to salute as well.
Suddenly, someone opens the door, and a bunch of people take their places. Some of them don't have a seat and they occupy the stairs. And then the show goes on. It didn't go as you expected, but it finishes with a warm applause.
When it's over, you start thinking with normality. The main feeling is that too many things that were designed and developed, too much effort, have not been used or shown during those 20 minutes, the minutes that really count. But it wasn't a failure. It was a success. At least you think so, and that matters a lot.
And then you realize, this pain, this anxiety before the start feels good afterwards. It's kind of addictive.
(Note: this picture was taken on December, when I visited the theater for the first time to check the lightning. I took exactly the same picture yesterday to use it for 365, but my camera got stolen afterwards. I hope you understand.)
Today marks the last day of my “365”project. What an experience. It has been a fantastic journey. The most important thing that I learned along the way was “I Learned to See” Everything that I looked at, became a potential photograph.
I learned to see Light, Shadows, Reflections, Shapes, and Lines. I also became very familiar with all of the different settings on my cameras. I used a Canon 1DS Mark II, a Canon G10 and my trusty Canon 20D which I carried on my motorbike.
Now there were days when the inspiration was seriously lacking, but I always managed to grab a shot during the day. Trying to plan a day ahead also helped.
A note book to jot done ideas, and places to re-visit for that photograph and a reminder on my mobile phone, set to go off at 11.00 am each day. I found the reminder was very helpful in the first few weeks, as there may have been other things happening on the day, and taking your daily photograph may slip your mind.
I would like to thank my family and friends, for all their support and comments and also my new friends on Flickr.
Another project completed. This time is was the bathroom ceiling. My sister and I painted the walls the day after I moved into the house. We were just too tired to do ceilings!! Got rid of the semi-gloss sheen on my ceiling and now have a fresh brilliant flat white to help the bathroom seem brighter!

Half way done with my 365 project and all the outcomes have been amazing!
3,000 followers with a little over 350,000 views, published 7 times in 5 different countries, but the most beautiful things have been the friends I've met, the stories I've heard and the people I've gotten the chance to work with!
This special half-project post was a collaborative with a great friend I met through one of the magazines I got to work with: Elen Tinoco an amazing photographer and philosopher! Please make sure you check out her work and GET INSPIRED!
I've just had an identity crisis and have updated my dolly blog and website to projectdollhouse.com (giving Les Jeunette a bit of a break)
:) Please drop by sometime !
TEN project explores the idea of family relationships in connection to time. It started as a result of meeting one of my cousins, Gabriela, after almost 10 years; we spent little time together, trying to rediscover each other and (re)create a connection. Although natural and absolutely not staged, the series of portraits explores the familiarity versus the unknown, the blood relationships, the time and the distance. The title is also connected to Gabriela's maximum grade (10) that she received on a recent MA graduation exam. Will update it soon.

My submission for the Utata Iron Photographer 132 project.
Required elements:
a mirror
a toy
cross-processing
Strobist Info:
SB-600 to right at 1/100 with diffuser cap to light up border of the mirror
SB-600 in mini-softbox to left at 1//32 to light up puppets.
I shot one shot with the white puppet, then a second shot focused on the black puppet's reflection and cloned the black puppet's reflection into the white puppet's mirror. I used two different cross-processing techniques in Nik Color Efex Pro 3.0. One was C04 and I don't remember what the other was. The cross-processing filters dropped the blacks too much in the black puppet's clothing. I should have it that area up more.
"Under cover of night, four Vancouverites meet to celebrate their city. From Spanish Banks, skyline silhouettes Stanley Park, Cypress. Tonight, we have reason: for too long we’ve grumbled of wet, not truly celebrating our City’s great gift – the rain. For in our dark, damp days do we not await the pleasures of spring: sunshine, buds, colours emerge. Alas, what of the pleasures of winter: as rains pour, leaves fall, umbrellas open to meet the skies, rainblossoms. Under cover of night, four Vancouverites meet to celebrate their city, for better or worse, rain or shine.
In civic spirit, the Rainblossom Project (with the help of VIA) invites Vancouver’s sister cities of Odessa, Yokohama, Edinburgh, Guangzhou, Los Angeles, and Seoul to spread the red."
