This is a collaborative work between my dog Fritz and I. He shreds the rope & I take the pictures. This was a 2 inch thick 2 foot long dog tug rope; he shredded it to string in under two hours.
Watch for our upcoming collaboration on shredded cardboard boxes. (I’m not kidding.)
The D string of a guitar vibrating.
Lit with a Godox V860II in a mini soft box. The flash was in multi-flash mode. I plucked the string and shot as it vibrated. The flash fired 3 times, capturing three different exposures of the moving string.
I just moved into my new house and cannot find anything including string. I finally found this tiny pouch for an iphone lens with string pulls!!!!!
Inspired by the German puppet theater Augsburger Puppenkiste I built a working marionette for Jonas' Puppenkiste .
I have never ever touched a string puppet in my live before, but it was very interesting to learn about how they work and training myself to tame the dragon the best I can. You can see the result in this video.

Seed part is the Iron Builder round versus Track Switch 9V in yellow and was used here 18 times.
I struggled with this but then came up with a favourite Glen Miller cheerful tune and dug around in my bead box .... HMM!

The bulk package of plastic string for my trimmer comes with a cutter blade in a plastic holder.
Roughly 1:1 reproduction ratio. The outside dimension of the cutter cutter is approximately 25mm/1"

All of last week I felt a calling to race into the city to take some high contrast black & white architectural images. Alas the weather wasn't cooperating.
The second calling was to investigate e-front curtain settings on my Sony camera. This came up in a comment on Simons (Simon's utak) image of 'Minolta Rokkor's crazy bokeh'.
The other day it had rained lightly overnight, and I headed out in the morning - to our front garden. I grabbed what I thought would be an interesting Bokeh lens for the test. The wonderful Helios 40, 85mm f1.5 early M39 silver version with a short extension tube. Wide-open of course. Any Bokeh is good Bokeh. Though in hindsight, this might have been too much Bokeh.
To cut to the chase. I did run some unscientific comparisons. Couldn't see any noticeable difference. More importantly I like the silent shooting - using just the electronic shutter. I use this mode 98% of the time. Running in this mode - then apparently the Bokeh should have less structure. So far so good.
Conclusion, it you want crazy Bokeh - then put on a crazy vintage lens. I don't think that I'll pursue this any further.
If you would like to investigate further, then I'd recommend a fellow Melbournian, Mark Galer. An excellent stills photographer and few in the world know more about all the Sony camera settings than he does.

Many thanks to Carl Street whose image of string and scissors was the original inspiration for this. I have a print of his image framed on my wall, loved it so much I really wanted to do my version of it...thanks Carl!

doktor, you are a genius!

what does this have to do with quantum field theory?
oh nothing. but the cat likes to play with it.
the cat?
isn't she cute?

There seemed to be a lot of bulbs lit up at least. Slowly shaking myself out of a post-holiday coma and revisiting some shots from earlier in the month. December is feeling like a bit of a surreal blur - which is usually what makes me look forward to the fresh return of January.
