More tests today. I'm learning how to control very light values. But first I did a little ink test in the upper left to see if you get green when you mix yellow and black ink. Yes, you do if you are very fast and mix them while they are still wet. I used a yellow Micron pen and a black Zig pen.
My main test was to slowly build up dilute colors. I had burnt sienna in one Kuretake Mini waterbrush and cobalt in another. I applied a wash, waited for it to dry completely, and added another. I did this four times to create four increasingly darker values. You have to be very patient, but it works. I learned this method from a book called "The Wash Method of Handling Water Colour" by Frank Forrest Frederick published in 1908. I found it for free on Archive.org

Where you can download it as a PDF, ePub, or Kindle file.
Finally I tried to get the lightest value possible with a number of colors. I used a wet round brush to pick up a little dried tube paint. I then quickly dipped the brush in water, tapped the brush against the inside of my water container (to dislodge a little water) and then made a brush mark down the dry page. This deposits very little pigment and is a good way to make beautiful, light colors. I also tried lifting some color out with a thirsty brush (in the cadmium red/lemon yellow mix), and I tried adding a little more color on top of the wet first stroke (ultramarine and cobalt - bottom left).

Just splurged and got myself the Joby Gorillapod slr-zoom. couldnt help myself, it looked like such a cool geeky gadget and easy enough to fit inside my camera bag.
They say its able to hold 3kg, wrap around poles, bend in just about any direction and pretty much allows to mount a camera almost anywhere.
So of course I had to put it to the test with my sub camera the Canon 30D with vertical grip, 2 batts, 70-200mm f2.8L IS, 430ex II flash and a Kenko ball head. This total weight combined would have to be over 3kg for sure but the Gorillapod still managed to hold it up. Of course you would want to use the remote cable for shooting like this but still that pretty damn coool!
They come in 3 sizes and this one sells for 5000yen or about $50 bucks US. Im sure its way cheaper in the states but for some reason a lot of camera gear is more expensive here in Japan. But still well worth it for sure. Im looking forward to trying it out in some more unusual places when I get time.
So far I highly recommend them!
A modern day TV test pattern. Test patterns were first used to assist TV set owners with adjusting their sets, but today's are for studio use and are a rare sight over the air (a local station was airing this on an unused sub-channel until programming was added).

The Board of Trade Inspection of the Irwell Viaduct over the developing Manchester Ship Canal. There are 10 locomotives of the Midland Railway and Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway standing on the bridge, giving a total of 750 tons. The date is said to be 1893, but I wonder if it might be a bit earlier. The site of Irlam Locks is in the distance and the old railway bridge just after the viaduct that will replace it. The River Mersey is running in on the right side of the image. The viaduct is still in use today but has been completely rebuilt with new steelwork and extra support pillars for the outside spans.
This is what happens when you get out of work late and there is no daylight left for test shots. Bathroom mirror selfies for the win!
This is Fuji Pro 400H.
Testing Leaf Credo at ISO 400, 110mm handheld wide open at 2.8. So far ISO 400 seems ok, 200 may use with beautiful results. The back seems sharper than my CMOS IQ250 & IQ100.
In studio lights for product or portraits it will shine no doubts.
