The AMC AMX is a two-seat GT-style sports car that was produced by American Motors Corporation for the 1968 through 1970 model years.[2][6] The AMX was also classified as a muscle car, but "unique among other American cars at the time due its short wheelbase".[7] The AMX was also the only American-built steel-bodied two-seater of its time, the first since the 1955-1957 Ford Thunderbird.[8] To a degree, the AMX was a competitor with America's only other two-seater of the era, the Chevrolet Corvette[9] for substantially less money.[8] With a one-inch (2.5 cm) shorter wheelbase than Chevrolet's two-seater, the AMX was often seen by the press as a "Corvette competitor"[10]
Fitted with the optional high-compression medium block 390 cu in (6.4 L) AMC V8 engine, the AMX offered top-notch performance at an affordable price. In spite of this value and enthusiastic initial reception by automotive media and enthusiasts, sales never thrived. However, the automaker's larger objectives to refocus AMC's image on performance and to bring younger customers into its dealer showrooms was achieved. After three model years, the two-seat version was discontinued, and the AMX's now signature badging was transferred to a high-performance version of its four-seat sibling, the Javelin, from the 1971 to 1974 model years.
Here is another one of those “no longer rare” self portraits. The main aim of this shot (other than capturing my beautiful face) is to test my camera.
“Why ?” I hear you ask…. Well its because this week I installed some “hacked” firmware to my 400D. Because this camera is looooong discontinued, Canon no longer issue firmware updates, so I found someone who does. I now have access to, spot metering, ISO range up to 3000, manual set long exposures (10s to 1hr) and best of all an intervalometer which can be set to refocus after every shot. This means that I can take a leisurely stroll to my position then the camera will focus, then I can alter position or pose and know that when it fires the next shot off it will refocus first. :-)
Physiograms keep for quite a long time if bottled and stored properly. I estimate this one will stay fresh until the year 3025.
One single long exposure here. Two tripods, lens cap and refocus between transitions. Fairly pleased with this one :) Square crop so there wasn't so much blackness in the wings of the frame.
I'm continuing the cityscape theme with another classic view of the city using a friend's 500mm lens! Again, if you're going to shoot a familiar theme, make it good. This took planning. See below. No HDR.

The Story
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been commissioned to do some extremely large gigapixel-sized panoramas with a Canon 800mm lens. So last week I decided to practise with my friends 500mm since I usually do wide angle photography and have nothing longer than my 24-105. So this is just two photos of a bigger panorama so I can see what I'm getting myself into. I waited for the light to be just right and then made a few exposures and calculated some settings for the big pano.
Problems:
Since each photo is a 5-10 second exposure and the eventual gigapixel photo will be 3 portrait shots high by 30 shots wide, and you only get 5 minutes of good light like above, I had to come up with a way to do each photo quickly. However, moving a big lens on a tripod requires quite a while to settle down to stability for each shot. So, I went to the local Home Depot (hardware store) and bought a large plastic bucket, some door shims (small angled wood slices to go under the camera to adjust the lens up or down), and a round piece of 1 inch thick sanded plywood to rotate on top of the bucket. It worked perfecty for a super sharp 30,000 pixel pano I did last night. Even in the wind, the lens does not move at all even when viewed in live preview at 10x.
The road up here on the Marin Headlands was just rebuilt and just reopened. You used to be able to drive right to this spot (amazingly) and shoot this photo right out of your car door! (Though a 500mm lens would shake too much.) It is an amazing cooincidence considering that this spot is over 1 mile to the Golden Gate Bridge and 7 miles to the Transamerica Pyramid Building seen through the opening in the tower. However, there is no place to stop now because of a guardrail and some earth moving work so you have to park below and hike up to this location. I'll include the exact spot on the map.
Once I was there, I set up my bucket and wiggled it around in the dirt to get it flat and stable. Then I placed the round plywood board on top and moved it around to make sure it was perfectly flat.
Then I put the camera with the huge lens on the wood and used wood shims to get the lens pointed up to the top row and shot a small panorama of a few shots on each row to practise my speed and accuracy. Just add shims under the camera to move to a lower row. I'll explain the rest of the procedure when I show the a portion of the bigger panorama. It would not fit into the Flickr scheme of things but the detail is incredible. I really could hardly believe it!
The map shows the exact location.

Needed to slow down even further with some frustration on lack of inspiration. Using Intrepid 8x10, was able to refocus a bit toward a in the moment mindset. The pressures of today sometimes are best met with time to compose, create, and moving on. Thankfully colleagues in the photography world can relate.
Another the cityscape series, this time with a 500mm lens plus a 2x extender for 1000mm total reach! I'm still working on the big panorama. It is difficult to get identically perfect conditions on 3 different evenings. No HDR.

The Story
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is just a single image that I saw while setting up for an evening panorama. It ended up being too hazy for the panorama but this single shot came out well! I was not intending on getting this image but the light was too good to ignore. Don't get married to preconceived ideas about what you want or you may miss a great moment.
The big pano is really difficult to capture so I'm still working on it. The first week,the visibility was 100 miles but the heat made big waves which blurred out the longer exposures. Then a few days later, the air because stable for really sharp photos but it was hazy so the distant objects were not perfectly visible. Then for the last few days, everything was perfect but I had to go to LA to visit relatives so I still have yet to be here under the right conditions for the panorama I want.
If you wish to get a really outstanding image when 5,000 images are uploaded to Flickr each minute, it seems as though you really have to be dedicated! Don't give up.

I regarded the world as such a sad sight
Until I viewed it in black and white
Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape
And sealed the exits with caution tape
Don't refocus your eyes in the darkness
And don't remember this place unless
I describe all the things that you cannot see
And we'll unravel the mystery
Okay, stick with me on this one here: this photo pushes a ton of limits and sends us down the rabbit hole. Instead of a mad hatter you have a mad scientist! This is a cross-view stereoscopic 3D image.
I’ve had people ask me for images like this – glowing 3D shots. I’ve also had people ask me for spider images recently, so here we go. First, how do you see this image? A “crossview” 3D image is designed to be seen by crossing your eyes; not so much that you see four, but just enough so that you see three where the left and right will overlap in the middle. Focus on this middle frame! A lengthier description can be found here: www.kula3d.com/how-to-use-the-cross-eyed-method . And if you have a VR headset or stereoscope or some fashion, you can find a “parallel” version which would view properly in these devices here: donkom.ca/stereo/PDKP2080.jpg
This image was taken with an unusual, uncommon lens. A, F10x14 stereoscopic 3D macro lens made by deWijs in the Netherlands ( www.dewijs-3d.com/en/ ). They have produced a number of 3D macro lenses over the years as various magnifications, but this is the highest magnification they ever made… and it comes with challenges. These “lenses” are actually two lenses in the same barrel, one for each eye, and they have a divider as far down the barrel as possible called a “septum” to ensure that each lens doesn’t cross into the other. One half of the sensor then becomes dedicated to each eye, and free software called Stereo Photo Maker ( stereo.jpn.org/eng/stphmkr/ ) can help perfectly align the images if there was any rotational shift and set a decent stereo window.
For 3D imagery, depth is critical, and focus stacking is almost impossible. You need a greater depth for your eyes to rummage around the scene and still find detail everywhere, is if our own eyes were exploring the subject on a larger scale – when we look somewhere with our own vision, our eyes refocus to make it sharp. To accomplish this, we have a trade-off: to get this depth in a single frame, you need a TINY aperture. I believe these lenses clock in at F/80. This makes the light requirements extreme, but it also means diffraction is going to blur any fine details, especially on a high resolution sensor.
This was shot on a Lumix S1R, so you’ve got the high-resolution component that is incompatible with the lens. This is a 47MP camera, and I had previously noticed serious softness with a 1DX mark II at only 20MP. 3D work has a way of creating a greater sense of detail from the depth associated with two “layers” of information overlapping, so this can still work. Because the aperture is so small and the amount of light is so little, it needed to be shot at ISO 12,800. I think it held up admirably, given all the challenges!
My personal challenge? Getting a jumping spider into a kiwi flower. The flowers are in our backyard, and the spider was found in our bathroom. Instead of just killing it, my wife yelled to me in my studio asking if I wanted a spider. Why yes, I do! Saving it from oblivion, you’d think it would be cooperative. No. I ended up using the metal portion of a blunt-tipped needle to coax it back into the flower a few times; the needle is a tool I had around for placing water droplets, but the spider had a hard time gripping it so it couldn’t climb on and walk (jump) a different path. Maybe a half hour was needed to get the right pose, but the passage of time is hard to recall when working with these experiments.
Jumping spiders are all different. I’ve had some jump onto my lens when trying to photograph them up close, others are very docile, especially when they have prey. It’s almost as if each one has a personality. I suppose the same could be said for many insects including mantids, weevils and even bees.
I was a little disappointed that this spider’s eyes didn’t fluoresce brightly like many other insects, including Daring Jumping Spiders that I had photographed previously ( www.flickr.com/photos/donkom/35040556705/ ). Even still, the legs and pose worked well enough to draw me in. In 2D, the photo is marginable, but in 3D it has a certain synergy – the two halves equal a greater value than their separate sums.
Okay, enough rambling. You want more “down the rabbit hole” macro photography? There will be plenty of it in my upcoming book Macro Photography: The Universe at Our Feet, currently on Kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/donkom/macro-photography/ - I would sincerely appreciate your support!
This was a difficult shot to get right as I couldn't view the composition before taking the shot. Then after viewing the image on the LCD, I would have to recompose and refocus. This would've been so much easier if it wasn't a self portrait! This is certainly a shot I would like to try again in the future. I need to find a way to hide the camera in the reflection.

I'm posting but am not around..to comment....sorry.....Thanks to those of you who FM their concern for me...:-)....Just taking some much needed time to refocus.
Been a rough couple of weeks for my Humpty Dumpty neck and shoulder. Definitely missing my old routine where all the King's horses & men would put me back together again. Time for a brief moment of calm to refocus.
Macro Monday #Alive. This was a pretty difficult shot to get because every time I pointed my camera at her she would move. So I had to wait for her to settle down, recompose and refocus before she moved again. HMM!
A spot near my house that is nice to frequent and refocus my mind. The sound of the water is soothing.

Was lying in bed the other night, wide awake, staring at the ceiling. Suddenly the stillness was broken by a faint rustling noise. Sounded like the flapping of little wings, or maybe tiny feet racing across the floor of the attic directly over my head. Maybe a mouse I wondered, but I hadn't heard it before now. Maybe a critter just moved in. But then it occurred to me that I'm normally not sleepless at this hour. Maybe the mouse runs across the attic every night and I simply don't hear it. Recently a portion of almost every night is spent this way. I think about the millions of other people that are also lying awake staring at their bedroom ceilings. The pandemic has upended lives and changed how we look at just about everything. Lately I worry about the longterm effect of unrelenting anxiety. Normally the proverbial valleys of daily life are counterbalanced by peaks. Bad days are interspersed with good ones and that helps us balance the books, so to speak, in terms of mental health. But now it seems there are no peaks as we've driven over a precipice into an enormous valley. The next big peak seems distant and very conditional (if we do this or that, if a vaccine is developed, if, if if). The negative effects are widespread and far reaching. Economy depressed, closed schools and businesses; people withdrawn from society. Even basic grocery shopping has become an anxiety-inducing experience. And all of that pales in comparison to the staggering death toll. And it worries me how the daily death counts have are becoming increasingly abstract. The mind just cannot fathom the numbers anymore as the bar for shock is raised on a daily basis. A mental numbness sets in through the constant repitition of the news cycle. I force myself to tune out for a portion of the day to prevent overload and being overwhelmed. I suppose a reset like this was inevitable. It's goin g to end, sooner or later. We'll emerge into a new normal. But it won't be the old one. Many adaptations are probably here to stay. Almost every day something surfaces in my life to remind me of the time before all of this. Trivial things like old photos, emails, notes and letters that remind me how priorities have shifted so drastically. Things that reveal the pettiness of my prior annoyances and problems in the present context. I would gladly embrace all of those issues now in exchange for the present reality. Everything is relative. I expect I haven't heard the last of my attic sounds. They are like a metaphor for the virus itself. Whatever the hell is making those noises, I hope it can't get inside.
I hesitated for a long time to refocus this photo, but I decided to leave above on the left the hand, which although diverting the attention of the head, it seems to me that it gives and strengthens the unusual side of the photo! What do you think about it?
Alibi.
The first T which came to hand after my shower was this one and reminded me of an idea I had a while back. I was going to use the washing line in the back garden but my neighbour was in his kitchen and I didn't want him to think I was mental, so the radiator had to do.
I took the image from last week of me jumping in the kiln and placed the figure in a triangle using an app for my phone. I then darkened the surrounding area so just the triangle remained.
I got the camera out and worked on the lighting for the T shirt on tripod 1. Once happy I moved to tripod 2 to expose the triangle element displayed on my phone screen.
I turned out the lights, fired the shutter and let the image burn in for 2 seconds before replacing the lens cap. A quick tripod swap and refocus then took off the lens cap. I got into position after releasing a chuff of vape and fired the flashes.
Single long exposure light art and a muchas gracias mi amigo to Frodo for this cool T shirt.
Happy days.
On a pedal Boat when he/she swam in way too quickly and too close for a lens manual refocus. Disgusted we had no bread, he/she swam as quickly away.
She seemed so tentative
Cautious Her tiny eye
Curving round the window frame
of a greying sky And I wonder
if we'll ever Fly into each others
arms again
We peek into each others eyes
hoping to find the answers
to All our Whys
To readjust the Balance
in our lives
To Refocus our priorities
so we can Meet again
Walk hand in hand
along that lovers path
where we First
embraced
And through those gates
down yonder where grows
the Tree of Hearts
to sit a spell and drink again
and again And again
from Loves sweet well

FOOD FOR THOUGHT:
REFRESHMENT, ANYONE? By Jane Fryar
By some estimates, seven of every ten doctor visits are fatigue-related. That’s a lot of weariness! Sometimes fatigue is a symptom of disease. But fatigue has other sources, too. Long-term stress. Grief. Ongoing frustration. Clinical depression. The list of causes goes on and on. Always, though, fear and worry make weariness worse. Anyone who has laid awake at night stewing about an aging parent, a straying spouse, or a child with autism knows how quickly fear and worry can dig a pit—and how deep and dark that pit can be. Into our darkness the Lord shouts his promise to refresh us. Far more helpful than a splash of cold water on tired eyes, far more effective than two pots of stiff coffee, God’s promise touches our hearts, planting seeds of hope. “I will refresh the weary,” he says.
A tall lemonade on a hot day. That first dive into the pool after the cover comes off in spring. A care package from home during finals week at college. These things refresh us. How much more refreshing, though, to see a friendly face, to hear a loved one’s voice, to receive a hug from someone who cares deeply about us. The presence of those we love during life’s lonely, troubled times—now that’s refreshing! And how much more so when the one who comes to refresh our souls is the Savior, who loved us to death—his own death on the cross! At times we find ourselves as innocent bystanders in the troubles that engulf us. At other times, we have caused the train wreck of our circumstances. (Or, at least, contributed to it.) But always, Jesus comes to forgive and heal, to refresh and satisfy our hearts with his love for us. In the light of his promise, worries melt and fears shrink. Are you “fainting” today from weariness? Are you struggling with an unresolved illness? Are you carrying a burden of guilt or fear or worry? Whatever the cause of your fatigue, pause and invite your Savior to refresh your soul. Lord, you refresh me by your presence and in your promises. Teach me to rely more and more on You, especially. (written by Jane Fryar)
"I WILL refresh the weary and satisfy the faint." Jeremiah 31:25
Have a Great Week my very talented friends! And may you be refreshed wherever you find yourself today :)

Hello everyone,
How are you? I have been missing for a while. I wanted to 'refocus' my Flickr experience due to the huge amount of time I was using it. To start with, I have decided not to add photos to many groups anymore. I still accept admin invites, though. Secondly I have created a new group called 'Worldwide Flickr Friends' to gather and comment the content from all my Flickr contacts and everyone else they wish too. I would love to use this group as a way to get to know my Flickr friends better.

I couldn't get the photos sharp enough. I think my camera is busted, it won't stop trying to refocus. :/
Where is your favorite place to refocus yourself?
For me, contemplating the perfect horizon and feeling warm breeze were just absolutely perfect to clear my mind during my stay in Krabi, Thailand.
Plus, golden hour enhanced this magical moment. Let me know your favorite place to keep your focus in the comments!🌟

A mis-snap while I was trying for a macro during a heavy foggy misty morning, shot before the camera had time to refocus. There were lots of bright dewdrops on my hedge reflecting the light from the rising sun.
06.25.16 - Photo of the Milky Way from my Mom's back porch using a manual Nikon 24mm f/2.8 AI-s lens on my Nikon D800.
I bought the Nikon 24mm f/2.8 AI-s lens on eBay for about $120 from a photojournalist about three and a half years ago to use as a wide angle for my Nikon FM3a film camera. I think the lens is from the late 1990s from what I remember in the eBay listing.
I find that I use it more on my Nikon D800, either for wide angle macro shots or for landscape, than on the film camera. I like how the 24mm manual lens has a certain something in terms of depth of field and color that my Nikon AF ED VR 17-35mm zoom lens does not have. And it is considerably less weight and size on the camera than the 17-35mm zoom.
In terms of astrophotography, the 24mm AI-s lens gets and keeps focus at infinity for pinpoint stars by far better than my Nikon AF 50mm f/1.4G lens - of which I have to continually refocus and even then of 50 photos I am lucky to get 3 with pinpoint stars rather than triangles or other aberrations.
My next eBay lens purchase will be the Nikon AI-s 20mm f/2.8 lens.
This is what I see when I see this in my head before I see it in person. Just enough on the face, just enough on the background, that glow. That GLOW, just like The Last Dragon, I'll want to capture this glow and spend far too much time on it, getting Stevie in just the right spot, the sun behind her, still bright enough to make its presence felt on the image, but not so overpowering it's all blown out.
Maybe ten minutes of this light, that's what I've got to work with but I know this I know this before I even step onto the beach so that when I DO step on the beach I'm ready to set up my shot that I'll practice a bit before finally putting together all the elements I've been playing around with while Stevie allows my direction to wash over her as I have her make small but significant adjustments to her posture pose expression until I've got it right where I want it and then I'll try something completely different because I've learned to give myself more than enough time so it's a good twenty minutes to kill until the light I saw when I saw this in my head actually appears.
And then it appears and she stands and I focus and focus and refocus because these eyes aren't getting any better and there's at least a twenty percent change it's not in focus at all but that's a chance I'm not just willing but needing to take.
So I take the shot and here it is.
(written while still drunk from the party. ta da!)
I was out shooting flowers when this barn spider dropped down to camera level and hung there right next to me. Nothing to do but refocus on the spider and take the shot...
Sometimes you have to stand alone, just to make sure you still can.
Thank you everyone for your visit and kind comments, really appreciated. Hope your all having a great Sunday.
Another one taken while out the other day and already sharp out the camera, edited in PhotoShop and save as a tiff file, then just for fun reshapen again useing Akvis Refocus.
