More experimental strobist work, this time cotton threaded through a needle.
A Simple set up with a remote flash set up subject right exposure is f22 at 160th sec.
Followed these guys (Threads), around with my camera all day. Was meant to be helping them out by doing some filming but photos did a happen. Granted I did some filming but I was more interested in getting some shots. First ever photos i've done like this, i'd say I did ok considering!
A fine cord of cotton or other fibrous material is spun out to a considerable length, especially when it is composed of two or more fibers twisted together.
May look scary but as basically all solitary wasps, it will not attack you unless you catch it and torture it with your bare hands :-)
Here's a shot of the cam chain finally threaded under the main drive gear within the lower end. It took threading two guitar strings through the ends of each side of the cam chain, then creating a loop on on end, bending it around, then feeding it deep underneath and grabbing it on the other end with a hooked tool.
Of course, the cam chain roller (in between the two pistons). Removed by two 10mm bolts for ease of access.
This entire process was very tricky in the sense that it took four synchronized hands all working together in unison to handle start to finish.
Rather than trace tack as Claire Shaeffer suggests I tailor tack the seam and placement lines using a double thread of soft cotton.
I shall trace tack the centre front mark. I begin by placing several pins (marked with arrows) along the CF line…
I don't know what the hell this is but it looks like a blob of mud suspended on a single spiderweb thread. It was hanging in mid air about 5 foot up in a green house I was working in today.
Now the cylinder has been lowered over the pistons, and the cam chain is being threading through the main body of the cylinder and over the top.
I highly recommend getting the piston ring compressor tool when lowering the cylinder back on. It took two sets of hands to compress the rings (not easy), while each using our chins to gently hammer the cylinder down over each ring, one at a time... all six rings.

Most species nest in the ground, usually in areas that have sparse or no vegetation; some species construct aerial nests composed of mud; a few species nest in hollow plant stems or abandoned bee burrows in logs.
Larvae feed on the paralyzed bodies of a variety of arthropods (the host varies according to wasp species) provided to them by adult wasps; common hosts include spiders, grasshoppers, and caterpillars.
Adults feed on nectar from flowers and extrafloral nectaries, honeydew, and body fluids of their prey.
I captured this one while it feed on the nectar of this Spanish Needle, in the vacant lot next door.
