I spent way too much time messing with this thing today but it works like a
champ!. With about $30, I was able to build the homemade shutter release
with a 40' extension. I built it modular so that I had a short version to
use right off of the camera or to add the 37' extension to it to get some
distance. I have a bird feeder on my deck that I get a lot of visitors
(when I remember to put food out) I wanted to be able to tripod mount my
EOS and run the long cable through the living room window so that I could
fire some really close shots of the bird friends. See the next shot that
was taken using this setup (no birds before it got dark)

A new toy - the brand new Phottix Hero LiveView wireless remote, which was announced at PMA in March 2009.
It provides a video feed from your DSLR, as well as a remote shutter release, with a range upto 100m.
It works with DSLRs that have LiveView, but it also works with DSLRs that don't have LiveView functionality!
I have now published a review of this remote on my blog.
Eleven and a half minute exposure. View large - it was night, so it looks better on black.
Strobist: diffused moonlight through the trees.

This is the Phottix Cleon II, which can be used as a wireless remote, or a simple wired remote for triggering the shutter.
Multiple versions are available, to suit different cameras (shown above is a Cleon II C8, on a Canon 50D).
See my blog for more photos and a detailed review of the Phottix Cleon II.
Very short and dry adit between the two longer flooded ones.

Floodlights wash over Prague Castle and reflect in a glassy Vltava River in Prague, Czech Republic. The Prague Castle complex is the largest of its kind in the world, housing everything from the nation's crown jewels to the offices of the president to Prague's largest church. It also offers the best views of the city.

I love long exposures, everything to do with night time, the dark, sunrise and sunset.
I like to take pictures mainly at night , sometimes during the day and in dull and fading light and I will sometimes display the time and date the picture was taken too.
I tend to take pictures of Light trails, Motorway traffic, Street lights, Buildings, Landscapes, Bokeh, Night bokeh and Hexagonal Night Bokeh in England.
All of my pictures are 100% natural and untouched in every way without ever been Photo shopped or altered or messed about with in anyway whatsoever, No multi layered photography, No HDR's and No image manipulation of any kind, all of my pictures look just the way they did when I saw them at the time of taking and I'm VERY PROUD of that.
I don't do any photo processing at all, I don't even own any photo software.
All of my starbursts are all 100% natural without using any filters or anything else, as is all my bokeh, night bokeh and hexagonal night bokeh, its all natural, no funny gimmicks at all.
I don't do anything with my pictures apart from take them and then upload them , 99.99999% of my pictures don't even get cropped , they are all 100% natural and untouched and then uploaded.
All of my pictures are copy right, © All rights reserved, you MAY NOT use any of my pictures without my written consent, you also MAY NOT change, alter, adjust or rearrange my pictures in anyway what so ever.

Another problem was the fact that the Indicatorplate wedged itself against the Baseplate at the end of its stroke (see upper red arrow) and the coilspring couldn't pull it back after a shutterrelease.
I solved this problem by bending this tip of the Indicatorplate slightly up (see lower red arrow).
This shutter release was done following the instructions on here and the idea for the case was found on here. =)
I did not use the extra Shutter switch as I only needed this for Bulb, which made things way easier!
Total cost: 11€! =)
Note that, apparently, this type of shutter release only works for the Canon Rebel, RebelXT and Rebel XTi...
Day eight.
Technically this is day nine, because I missed yesterday. But what I plan to do is make up the days I missed after a year has passed, by just continuing the numbering as if a day was never forgotten.
Anyways, today I watched my favorite documentary: Piece by Piece. A documentary about San Francisco & Bay Area graffti; catch it on youtube!
After that went out and painted over an old spot I had running since 2011 that needed a makeover. Gave it that 2013 flavor.
Kicked it at my friend James' house & played some Settlers of Catan with the homies.

camera shutter release shot with a raynox macro lense,sunpak ring light and flash into umbrella above camera triggered by a sync cord
Film can, Radio Shack button, plug from cheap cell phone headset. Made it to use with the Rebel XT, but it also seems to work fine with the K20D. Still want to make one with a switch for bulb exposure.

I see the sun set over the chain of mountains along the most famous one, fielkoh (the elephant mountain). The tops submerged in clouds and mist. A few orange and magenta rays shine through the mountaintops and the clouds upon this large empty field which stretches from the foot of the mountain right to mine.
At least hundred men and boys entertain themselves with darya, armoenia and tabla (musical instruments) and half of them is playing soccer with no clearly distinguishable teams. Dressed in pirhan tanban and barefoot they all run across this orange lit field of dried grass and dirt. The joy and pleasure can not only be heard from their voices but also be read from their faces and felt by their radiant beings.
I stand there looking at this magical and heavenly sight and hurry to my camera in an attempt to capture this moment. To capture this feeling. I take the cap off the lens and look through the viewfinder upon this scene. And even before I find the shutterrelease button by touch, I know, not think but KNOW, that I am destined to fail.
I take several pictures which I know will dissappoint me later and put away my camera. I submerge myself in this moment and elongate it untill the final rays have dissappeared behind the chain of mountains.
I put away my camera. Take off my pattu and put it back on over my head covering my hair and half my face and walk away.
I envy them their happiness! The only thing that matters in life and the only thing I lack!
So seeing as the FT QL is already broken, I figured I had nothing much to lose in taking it apart to see what was inside, and I might just have a chance at fixing the dodgy mirror. So here are the results.
The black disc is the frame counter with the winder lever attaching to the spindle though the middle of it. the smaller disc is the shutter speed and ISO selector. The small silver pin in the gap between and below is the shutter release.
It works. You point it at the camera and the camera takes pictures. Marvelous. I wish it doubled-up on some other useful task, like a wireless remote shutter release and kettle switch, or a wireless remote shutter and pavement cyclist sonic attack gun. Something like that.
After you wind the front dial thing all the way clockwise you start it running with the small lever just visible at top right. The rotation of the big red dot helps you see how close you are to the shutter tripping. The knurled barrels let you adjust how far the plunger extends from the tip at its maximum (if you set it perfectly, the plunger will snap back inside right after tripping the shutter).
