One last test of my Koni Omega Rapid 6x7 medium format rangefinder, before I take it out with a paying client tomorrow. I wanted to make sure there were no light leaks, and that flash sync was working, focus was working etc.
Nikon SB-28 mounted on one of the cold shoes on the "Koni", sync cable to trigger, duct tape to insulate the contacts on the 'foot' of the flash, so it would actually fire. F/4 and a relatively slow shutter speed to capture a little ambient, but not much. Flash is aimed camera right, for bounce flash. Flash is set to 'auto'. Very expired Konica ISO 160 film, which is fitting since this camera was manufactured by Konica.
Many Korean employees brush their teeth after lunch at work. They leave their toothbrush in the work/public toilet.
Nikon D800
Nikon 24-70 2.8

SB-910 front high.
Black cloth background.
My very first off camera flash shoot. I've never taken a picture with a black background before, took a bit of experimenting to get it right.
I think this hits the brief pretty well in my opinion - we all brush our teeth twice a day (well you should!) and I thought this shows the object in a very different and extraordinary way, but yet is still familiar to us (water, toothbrush, a mirror on the wall = tools used to brush our teeth, an ordinary daily routine). Anyway, it was fun and challenging in just taking the photo!
Water was poured on the mirror to give it a different texture. The toothbrush was turned on and water squirted onto the head to make it splash everywhere.
I love the design of this days toothbrushes, they look so futuristic and intergalactic.
Me encantan los cepillos de dientes de estos dÃas, tienen un diseño fenomenal : futurista y parece que vienen de otras galaxias.
This is an abstract shot for a short series of toothbrush pictures I took for my blog fotografzahl.wordpress.com. The 'winning version' can be found on Day 73.
Of course, I forgot to get the artist's name, but this person's booth was on Liberty, close to Main St. I thought the little duck toothbrush holder was pretty keen. If I'd been thinking, I would've swapped out the lens for the 50mm 1.8/f and gotten some wicked bokeh.
Mounted on wall. Note the taper of bottom of the holder. That is what gives the "snap" to hold the toothbrush in place.
Jeevitha Anathasharama is a small Bangalore orphanage, run by four determined ladies. Only about four years old, the orphanage is housed in two small houses (for boys and girls separately) in KR Puram. It can accomodate upto 40 children, ages 3-16 years.
The children attend nearby schools - mostly in Kannada, but a few go to English medium schools as well.
The orphanage provides all the essentials - accomodation, food, clothing, education and medical facilities.
As expected, funds are hard to come by, though some corporates are coming forward to help. Most of the funds are contributed by friends and volunteer donors, and the ladies and children also go for door to door collections. At the orphanage, everyone contributes in keeping the place clean and helping out with chores, and looking after the youngest children.

The Daily Shoot assignment for 2011/01/05:
Make an interesting photograph of something mundane and ordinary today.
A bit late, took this one around 11:45pm yesterday and then fell asleep before uploading. Just a quick shot, poor toothbrush looks kinda dead.
I made a trouser leg into a toothbrush holder!

From a short distance and with no contacts or glasses, the back of that toothpaste looks a lot like another toothbrush.
