Strobist Sundays - shoot something alive
Lighting info: Since my ice cube drop shot turned out to be not too messy, I decided to try this. It came together quickly and, really, the worst of it is a load of wet towels to wash now. Initially I wanted to shoot tethered to a laptop so I could see each shot (shooting using a corded remote shutter release). I've never done that, and ultimately didn't have time to set it up today. So scratch that idea for now. Instead, I figured I'd shoot a batch or two at HS continuous (which works fine with the flash at 1/8 power and Skyport trigger), get out and semi-dry off, check the shots, then get in the shower again and shoot another batch. That's what I did several times; worked like a dream. I burned thru over 450 wet images in 15 min.
I put the remote button in a zip bag and sealed it. Camera was on a tripod on the counter, about 2 m from me. The flash was on a stand outside the shower opposite the showerhead, and firing down from over the top of the frosted-glass enclosure. And there were a bunch of towels on the floor and more handy on the counter.
Before I got wet, I did a (literally) dry run to find my mark and check lights. The 100mm* did not give me much room for lateral movement before going out of frame, but shooting HS meant I could easily try various positions in each burst of 10-15 shots. It took only about a dozen shots to get set up, and find where I had to have my head. The tile wall behind me is bright aqua, so I taped up a big black towel, plus another dark towel on the showerhead wall so I'd have a deep shadow on my face. (*This mk II 100mm macro is fabulous. Fast focusing and very sharp and at f/2.8 as much speed as I would have needed)
Set up, tests, shoot, finish my shower, and clean up only took about an hour.
What I'd do differently next time: I'd have more water going past my face into the light, or, better, have the water coming from the same side as the light.

This brightly-colored kite was being flown above a nearly-deserted Atlantic Ocean beach above Duck, North Carolina, last April, its exploration of the gloriously blue sky restricted by the flyer's string.

Day 39: Inspiration from several sources on this one...I've seen a few "bondage" photos running around and decided I wanted to try one myself. I'm also having an angry day....very angry....at everyone and everything. I get that way sometimes. No one has to really do anything in particular to set me off...it just happens. I happen to know what set me off this time, but it's my problem, not really anyone else's. I take things too personally, I get myself in too deep, and I get hurt. So, I do my best to gag it all back and bury it deep so at least I'm the only one who knows I'm hurt. Makes things difficult at times...and it's really no way to live, but it's the way I know how to at the moment.
Anyway, if you'd like to see a couple more 365 "bondage" shots, check out sadandbeautiful (Sarah) and Sick Little Monkey They both have some great shots.

after years of only shooting with natural light, I started experimenting with artificial light at home.
Fun light show put on with these tethered balloons at the end of the festival, it first time i'd tried to photograph them up close and I found it was surprisingly challenging.

Read about the project here:
Settled during the period of the early Iberian castro culture, the territory of Viseu was populated by a series of cultures, that include the Romans, Suebs, Visigoths and Moors. During the Roman occupation of Iberia, Viriathus, rebel leader of the Lusitanians, is assumed to have lived for a time in territory. During the Middle Ages, the city often served as seat for Visigothic nobles (such as King Roderic), and is considered one of the probable birthplaces of Afonso Henriques, first King of Portugal.
During the 1383–85 Crisis, the city was besieged by the forces of Juan I of Castile, leading to King John I of Portugal starting construction on a series of defensive fortifications which would continue being built until the reign of King Afonso V of Portugal.
The city became part of a fiefdom, when Prince Henry the Navigator, son of King John I of Portugal, was made Duke of Viseu, in 1415.
In 1475, Vasco Fernandes, famed artist of the Portuguese Renaissance, was born in the city,
In 1513, King Manuel I of Portugal renewed the charter of Viseu and a series of works were taken on throughout the city, with the opening of the first square of the city, the Rossio.
In the 19th century, a new Municipal Palace was built in the Rossio, significantly altering the flow of the city, moving it away from the medieval centre to newer parts of the city.
Viseu is a regional economic hub with a strong wine industry and is the seat of international conglomerate Visabeira. Similarly, the city is a cultural centre, home to the nationally acclaimed Grão Vasco Museum, seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Viseu, and the hub of national universities, including the Catholic University of Portugal.

Number 19 for 101 Pictures : Cross.
I was in the greenhouse and noticed this large and upset person struggling to release itself from a web. I managed to help it out of the window, where it remained attached for a full minute while I took a couple of photos. This is the only one that shows how cross it was!
I have never seen a hornet in my garden before, so I wonder where there is a nest..I don't think I have a suitable site, such as a hollow tree.
