Bought her a new dress for the summer. She had to put it on to test if it was a "real one". Meaning if it could twirl.
Time to put the equipment and snow conditions to a test. The in-between season is officially over. The cross-country trails are waiting. There was not quite enough snow on the weekend but with the 20cm of fresh powder we are receiving it should be enough.
change of tack , just bought a MF VIVITAR series1 70-210 mm lens ,they were supposedly among the best lenses back in the day .. it arrived next day delivery not bad for a £24 purchase and I set it up on my EM1X with focus peaking etc.TBH im extremely pleased with the results so far heres a sample and its definetly a keeper
I often get a kick out of Flickr's tags. Apparently it thinks it snowed inside; flunks the Rorschach test. :-)
tested out painting some kneepads
and the boots are horrid I know
Please don't just fav and leave, comments are much more appreciated
Two more from that test roll developed in Pyrocat.
Hopefully today I’ll try developing a roll shot in the Pentax 6x7. I loaded the roll a while ago and did not mark the camera with the film type. There was a 720 nm filter for infrared film on the lens so I assumed there was IR film loaded… NOPE!
Ilford HP-5 … now I am still trying to figure out how to properly meter IR I have been metering through the filter. So today I’ll have a lovely surprise or a reminder of the consequences of a feeble memory. All in all it will be a learning exercise, so no matter what happens it will be ok!

first printing of Helium for the Periodic Table project. I'm not happy with all the white space, so I think I'll do a very pale solid blue background layer, then put pale grey clouds and a bright red balloon. Might also try to paint a bit of yellow or orange onto the sun to make it more firey. Lots to try anyway.
Testing what may be my new camera once my back is sufficiently recovered to carry a backpack again, hopefully in the new year. As you would expect, I’ve carried out a rigorous, highly scientific test:
1. Can I carry it? Yes, all the way to the garden, no problem at all.
2. Does it fit in my pack? Probably. It’s around here somewhere.
3. Will it focus close enough to photograph a small pile of frosty leaves? Yes.
4. Are said leaves sharp? I should say so.
5. Will it photograph other stuff? I don’t see why not.
6. Have I comprehensively compared it to other cameras? Not really. I like this one.
7. Was it an impulse Black Friday buy? Maybe. I don’t see what that’s got to do with it.
8. Have you told the wife? No need. She can’t tell it apart from the old one.
9. So that’s that then? Yep. Proper job.

The Flamingo Test is a single-leg balance test that is part of the Eurofit Testing Battery. It is used to evaluate static balance and overall body balance. The test assesses the ability to balance successfully on a single leg and is commonly used as a field motor test of balance for healthy subjects and athletes.
Welcome to Planet Frost
Our tour continues...
As a center of science and industry, Planet Frost is at the forefront of cutting edge research and development. It is not unusual to see experimental rovers like this one being tested, zipping about on the moondust flats.
This one is built on a 2009 RC chassis (bb0396c01). I saw one on bricklink for a few bucks so I thought why not? It is a bit underpowered (only 4.5v) but fun anyway.
