Testing out something a little more artistic for a Milky Way shot, choosing selective colors for what I think are the interesting aspects of a given MW shot. For this shot I thought the intense green airglow and new spring vegetation growth combined with the aurora from the Memorial Day weekend storm were "highlights" of the shot. I also decided to selectively color the Rho Ophiuchi complex, North American Nebula, and Sadr region. Thoughts?
Test shot of the sun with my new solar filter that I got so I may try a shot of the solar eclipse on Aug 21. Works very well!
Rare test de photo de nuit en rentrant du travail. Sans trépied pas top mais j'ai trouvé l'ambiance pas mal quand même!

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.
Excerpt from www.flamboroughtoday.com/spotlight/waterdown-village-welc...:
A highlight of fall in Waterdown Village is the annual Scarecrow Walk, starting in this eighth year on October 11 and running right until Hallowe’en.
“Once again, our local businesses and community partners will display uniquely decorated scarecrows, animating our streetscape and giving people of all ages more than 130 reasons to Walk Waterdown,” exclaimed Waterdown Village BIA Board of Management Chair, Amanda Groves.
She added, “The Scarecrow Walk has fast become a signature event for the community. Clues featuring mugshots of favourite monsters will be placed on 20 randomly selected scarecrows for scavengers to find for a chance to win shopping spree prizes. You can discover new businesses, take selfies with your favourite scarecrow entries, and test your detective skills to find all 130+ scarecrows and all 20 clues, for a wonderful day out for the whole family.”
This is just a shot to test to see if I can upload from my phone from the iCloud as I can't log in to my yahoo and Flickr from my laptop dew to security issues raised from yahoo my old phone number was used as a security buffer no need to comment on this
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.

I went out a couple weeks ago at the peak of leaf peeping season to take advantage of all the incredible colors. As usual I took a quick "throw away" shot just to test my settings. I knew this wouldn't be a keeper because it is such a cliche and I assumed I'd need to adjust my settings to account for the dark, rainy morning light. After a couple 100 shots, it turned out that this was one of my favorites.
