Testing coping E6 transparencies with the a6000
Second post of this image but different technique ...
I used to get some nice radio programs from the ABC on my transistor during the day..
Tests conducted at the Materials Test Reactor, which operated from 1952 to 1970, influenced subsequent reactor design and fabrication around the world.

Finally, I got a Pentax K 50/1.2 which I am testing at the moment. The light in this one was offered by a small lamp (40 watts) which is directed against a wall on the other side of the room... ;) The DOF is rrrrrreally small and I think it'll take a couple of shots until I am comfortable with it's fokussing.

This is the head badge of my Kid Dangerous that was titanium nitride coated in a test run. Two sets of new badges are now being low temperature TiN coated just like this one.
Daguerreotype surfaces after being exposed to sodium sulfide (for over a week). The experiment offers data which can support interpretations of the aging process seen in daguerreotype plates, and information which helps, at least in a superficial way, identify a gilded (gold toned) from an ungilded plate.

I thought I'd give a demo of the standard vignette on the new 16-35 F4 IS L. In direct comparison to the 17-40 L which I also have, the vignette seems to be worse at first glance (back of camera) on the newer lens. However, once on screen, you can see that the newer lens is no worse at the corners than the old, and a big improvement towards the middle.
Once Lightroom releases a lens correction profile for the 16-35 F4 IS L, it should be great, as the new glass is definitely sharper, and the IS is massively useful in my opinion.
On a telephoto with IS, you're looking to get a shot with your aperture wide open, and the IS allows you to shoot at 1/30-1/100th all day. The huge benefit with IS on a wide angle for me, is that now, even though I could always hand hold at 1/15th, I can now crank up my aperture and get an even sharper image.
Overall thoroughly happy with my new glass... anyone want to buy a well loved Canon 17-40mm F4 L ?! hehe.
I was never really one for sun-worship, even when I was young. When I saw lines of tanned bodies frying slowly on a beach it looked a very boring way to spend time. But when I arrived in Sweden, I discovered another form of sun worship. This took place in winter on cold sunny days. You wrapped up very warmly and sat or stood against a wall, with the sun shining onto your face. No risk of getting burned but a gentle warmth spreading over your face. It feels wonderful. And this is how we started our day, outside the house on our bench for ten minutes in the sun.
We couldn’t stay longer because we had a time booked in town for our Covid tests. We were feeling no better but no worse either than we had over the weekend but it felt good to be checking. We arrived at the appointed carpark at the appointed time and joined a short queue of cars. After a couple of minutes a young guy with a misted-up visor took our ID cards and returned them together with a testing kit. We parked the car, read and followed the instructions and when we were done turned on the hazard warning lights to tell him we were done. After a while he walked the line of cars with a shopping basket, into which we dropped our sealed plastic bags. We should get the result in 48 hours.
It still being so sunny it felt wrong to just drive home and vegetate, so we drove to Smitingen beach and walked down to the sea and back, pausing to take pictures, one of which Jan is blipping. Driving back through town we noticed the North Sound was frozen so we parked up in a sort of mini industrial estate and I walked between the building to a piece of wasteland looking over the sea. As you can see the water is a mish-mash of broken ice-floes, mixed in with small ice fragments and all frozen together. Too rough for skiing or skating or walking, even if I knew it was strong enough, which I don’t. There are some extra broken bits a bit offshore where a ship has pushed its way in to the quayside. No ice-breakers needed yet. I took a few pictures and walked the 50 meters back to the car, where Jan was waiting. (Exercise today - walked 900 meters!)
On the left is the deep-water harbour, still filled with wind-turbine bits, on the right the northern part of town, and between them the sea in the form of the North Sound.
Then it was home, where Jan found a little energy for a short online meeting and even did some yoga, but I just vegetated. My evening routine seems to be a little TV and then bed. I’m grateful we are both sleeping well. If I have to get a bug then this one seems to be treating me fairly gently so far.
Beginning to experiment with purely digital drawing. Takes some getting used to. (See black outlines)

I'm not 100% certain but i believe this is Rubens being pushed back into the garage after taking the RA106 out for a spin.
The Honda RA106 was the car with which the Honda team competed in the 2006 Formula One season. It was driven by Rubens Barrichello, who joined from Ferrari, and Jenson Button, who had spent three seasons with the team as British American Racing. The year marked the first time Honda had competed as a full team since 1968; since then it had only competed as an engine supplier until taking over BAR completely in late 2005.
Although the year was a significant improvement on 2005, Honda were unable to challenge for the world championship after impressive winter testing form. The car was quick in qualifying, but less so in the races. A performance slump mid-season also led to the team parting company with the car's designer, Geoff Willis, and he was replaced by the inexperienced Shuhei Nakamoto.
However, things improved from the German GP, culminating in Button's first F1 win in Hungary. Button was generally the stronger driver throughout the season, and it was felt that he deserved to get Honda's first win in their F1 return.

F1 Test Session, Silverstone (April 27, 2006)
If this ever gets made into a proper video, it'll look better. Honest.
I shot this in half an hour and edited it in an hour. There's a bunch of mistakes and things that could be improved, but hey, that's what tests are for.

*UPDATE*
There's a new test video you might care to see here.
*UPDATED UPDATE*
Brian Eno likes this video... It got shown in one of his Audio Video classes....
Here's the setup for the second light test. As you can see, very simple. I used the ambient light as the main fill, with the key light on camera left set at 1/2 power with umbrella, the edge light on camera right set to 1/2 power as well.
Exposure: 1/125, F11, ISO 100
Key light: LP120 set at 1/2 power, umbrella, metered at F11
Edge light: LP120 set at 1/2 power, metered at F16
Fill light: Ambient light, F8

Focus chart. The best shot I got with it. 1/200s, some of them focused completely wrong (test 10)
My thoughts on the lens here
