I went to Louisberg last night to test my astrotrac. It worked well but my technics left a lot to be desired... they sky at night is so beautiful, the beauty, the quiet, the wonder; seeing time from long ago.

I wanted to test the noise behavior with high iso.
I wrote an article about the test. Please check here for German speakers: www.doreen.es/2008/09/09/nikon-d90-test/

Well, at least one paper Dr. Ware recommends does seem to work. Unfortunately it's weird and being discontinued. Luckily it's HUGE sheets which will probably last me forever and was only 95p for elephantine-sized paper.
The thing you can't see from a scan is that this is like slightly shiny smooth tissue paper. It holds up to water well. However, when brushcoating, it likes to stick to the brush (!) on the final stroke closest to an edge so it's a bit of a fight to get it coated but the colour is good (better than what I've gotten out of Buxton paper and Crane's Kid Finish and Arches Aquaelle) I wasn't sure of its colour because it took a while to oxidize properly... some shadows look more solarised after washing. Oh it washes nicely too with it being so thin. I'm sure there's some artsy project you could do with Silversafe's see-through properties but I'm just not interested in that aspect.
These are some shots i took with an interfit lighting kit.
Main Light: Softbox high camera right
Fill Light: Umbrella low front left just outside the frame.
I'm not too sure i like the processing so i am looking for your comments on it. Thanks in advance!

Check out my short video:

I've been trying to get the Petzval swirly bokeh in a homemade lens for a bit. Looks like I am close at last... more tests at the weekend.

August testing can be so tough! Summer vacations. Back to school time. There are a lot of distractions! So proud of all of our students who prepared and did their best at the August Belt Testing!

I rented the Canon 85mm f/1.2 for the weekend from Penn Camera on E street. This is a lens I've always wanted even though I've never used it. I decided to do some quick shots of Sam on the (her) couch to test it out. I love the sliver of a DOF that's for sure, but boy this lens sure does weigh a lot and doesn't focus very fast compared to other "L" lenses. Overall I think I'm really going to like it and someday it will be mine. Oh yes.
Testing of the iPhone HDR option in the iOS 4.1 update. A summary of my observations thus far will shortly be posted to my blog.

Testing Kenko extension tube set. MacBook in front of the camera, Nikon D60 + Tamron AF 18-200mm + Kenko extension tube set attached to Slik U2000 tripod.
Last Sunday I was bored and got this crazy idea. I mashed in some wheat malt, crystal malt and roasted barley. Then I mixed the wort with honey and water and boiled with Saaz hops (20 min + 1 min). I cooled it off and measured it SG1080. Then I pitched some drops of California lager yeast kept in the fridge from a previous brew. Dry hopped with some more Saaz a couple of days ago.
2 liters hopped mead fermenting, for a week now and still bubbling.
