Fashion Week - Elke - 2 camadas
Azul muuuito escuro com brilhinhos.
Lindo! Mas em ambientes com luz artificial fica quase preto.
Queria que os brilhinhos aparecessem mais... mas nesse dia o sol não tava legal.

A quick look at the setup - This is my usual shooting space - now overrun with laundry and a sister-in-law's Wedding Dress. So what was once a limited space is now a *very* limited space.
Strobist info:
Canon 430 EXII - 1/16th - Softbox - Camera Left and high
Nikon SB-900 - 64th - Umbrella - Camera left and low.
This is a different setup for me than normal - I'd like to get a second softbox and try it out with that rather than the umbrella.
I asked Arthur if he wanted to take a bath. This was how he was hiding. Haha.
-
I posted three videos, in case you want to see it. One of them shows how he's winking, only with the left eye (which is returning to normal). The other one shows him trying to hide to scape a bath and also him barking (arguing with me. If you pay attention you'll see that he have great points), where you can see that only the left side of his face is "working", which makes his expression kind of crooked. And the last one is just to show how happy he looks when taking a shower.
Since the left side of his face is coming back to normal I think it's an improvement, so he's better. Also there's no more fluid coming out of his right nose. Twice as better.
So that's all the news for this week.
Thank you for all the heartwarming messages about Bidu. We truly appreciate your energy.
Stay in peace and have an amazing week, everyone.
this was an alternative shot for my 365 day 101 in which i share my favourite body part with the world through FGR. i picked the other shot because it shows more of said body part (my shoulder). i think i prefer the profile of my face in this one though and at least you can't see the silly mark left by my bra strap. boobs hey? i love having them but they're not all bounces and smiles that's for sure.

I had two ideas for this week's portrait session, and then I didn't feel like doing either of them, so instead I took a picture of what I'm spending most of my time doing right now.
We decided to go in search of Joy this weekend and what better way than a family outing to the beach. This is the girls trying to throw their dad in the water.
Today was the first day of school holidays and we had a great day, breakfast picnic at the beach, watched some whales frolicking in the ocean, then headed up into the the hinterland for a rainforest walk and back to the beach for a fish and chip lunch. Thank you 52 group for the inspiration. Outtakes in comments.
Week 12/52 -
*Hit "L" to make it big!*
Week 20 enters a new realm: Pregnancy! This is Michelle. Michelle is one of Ashley's best friends from college. She is the first of the bunch to get pregnant! We celebrated Ashley's birthday yesterday and Michelle came into town and I wanted to get some Maternity pictures. She is just about 6 months into her pregnancy.
Michelle was also kind enough to let me 2nd shoot at her wedding last year:
Her wedding was in May of 2010 and it was the first time I used my new 7d. Its been a great time ever since and I really appreciate her and Garrett allowing me to shoot at their wedding. It helped my career a lot. Thanks!
Congratulations Michelle and Garrett!
Canon 7d
Canon 50mm(1.4)

ISO 160
Strobist:
1- Canon 430EXII, 1/4 (-.7), zoomed @24mm, fired camera left on stand, into Wescott Apollo Softbox, about 5' from subject
1 - Canon 430EXII, 1/8power, zoomed @80mm fired in Cheetabox Softbox (gridded), camera right on stand, about 6' from subject
1 - Vivitar 285HV, lowest power setting, zoomed to "tele" fired camera left on stand, into DIY snoot/grid, about 6' from subject
Objective: (Jeremy speak)
This was my first Maternity shoot. I had some ideas on what I wanted to do and I think they worked out really well. Michelle is also "easy on the eyes" so that helps too!
I used a 3 light setup for this shoot.
The main light fired into my 48" Apollo Softbox. That helps to create nice soft light, which in this shot is falling on her right side.
The 2nd light is the light that is falling onto her belly. This flash I put inside my Cheeta Qbox softbox with a grid. The grid is a fabric piece that attaches to the outside of the softbox. It basically looks like a tic-tac-toe grid of fabric. This grid helps focus or direct the light into one place without light spilling everywhere. So in this shot you can see how it is just hitting her belly and slightly outlining her left side. Without the grid it would have put a bunch of unwanted light all over her left side. I wanted to the focus to be on the belly and it worked great.
And the 3rd and final light is a hair/rim light. That is coming from her back right side and it falls onto her hair and shoulder. You can see how that light gives separation from the background. I also used a grid on that flash so the light would not fly everywhere. I made my own snoot using cardboard and black straws - innovative, I know!
For processing I did some slight skin smoothing in PS CS5 and minor tweaks in Lightroom - Voila, a very beautiful pregnant girl! Thanks Michelle, good luck!
February 26-March 4
It made me really sad to realize I never took any photos of the library while I did my 365. Actually I did! Day 8/365
So here is week 9. :)
This week was super awesome. I took photos of my friend Jesse doing Parkour, butterfly photos of my sister and mom, film of some of my favorite scenes in Maui, and some goofy shots of my friends after book club outside in the rain.
+1 in the comments, and a link to a full album of them.

I've chosen an existing Panorama to re-edit. The original is on the top. The colour of the buildings, water and sky is much closer to what I saw with the naked eye. The roofs are yellower than the original, however it was golden hour. I have used a Trial version of Luminar to make these edits quite easily.
(See Discussion created by Rosemary Whitelaw earlier this Week for more details... I think you'll like it 😀)
So yesterday I felt like absolute garbage. Woke up, took a nap, spray painted some, took another nap, didn't get much accomplished, went to bed. I am honestly blaming it on our humidifier. Does anyone else's humidifer make them sick? (It's not dirty, so that's not the issue.) I know it's dry in here, but whenever I use the humidifier I feel *terrible* the next day! Which is not what I was expecting when I bought the darn thing.
Baby just keeps getting bigger...I can't believe there's still room in there! 5 more weeks...
Also, not wearing leggings as pants. Just yoga pants that are increasingly snug these days...
Week 4 Puppies!
Man they're growing pretty fast! This was them 2 weeks ago! :D keke
A little less than 4 weeks and I get to bring one of them home with me!!! Wooohooo!!!!
Week 19 of 52. This weeks theme: "WINDOW LIGHT".
The possibilities were endless with this weeks theme. Natural window light was my very first introduction to learning lighting in photography. I learned to shoot solely by filtered window light. Even though I have advanced beyond window light to various outdoor lighting situations and studio strobe lighting, window light still remains my very favorite light...beautiful, natural, and soft. I kept trying to stick my 4 y.o. daughter in front of our kitchen window today at about 5pm when the lighting was perfect, but I couldn't get her to stay still and act natural (no surprise there;). After many attempts I peeked in on my 2 year old son in his room to find him sitting quietly on the chair with a book right in front of the window. Perfection.;)
I spent a lot of time this week practicing getting some action shots of Josie. I got a few that were okay, but none I am too proud of. This shot isn't the best, obviously, but I caught a funny moment, so I had to post it.
Josie is really awesome at frisbee. If we can throw it right, she can catch it. I know this shot is kind of busy with the playset behind, but our yard it pretty small and we have to make do with what we have. We are doing some intense training with Josie right now as she is being reactive towards people and dogs. So right now open fields off leash is not an option for us. Hopefully soon though because I would love to get her into some kind of agility training with her - she is super smart and coordinated (although you can't tell from this shot).
Project 52 2013, Week 15
Strobist Info: Nikon SB-26 @ 1/4 inside a Westcott 28" softbox camera left. Two Nikon SB026 @ 1/16 power behind subjects for rim light.
This week was assessment week at swim, and because I am always prepared for the worst case scenario, I assumed that this would be the week Olive decided she hated the pool. But, as usually happens in life, what happened was something I didn’t foresee.
When it was our turn for class, her instructor told the moms to stay on the deck and let the kids enter the pool on their own. “Let’s just see what happens,” she said. We slowly sat down, awkward in our bathing suits, and held our breath a little while we watched our kids handle this new challenge. Which they all did with aplomb.
Ten minutes passed, then twenty and slowly the moms started trickling back to the locker room to change as it became apparent that we weren’t needed. As I watched Olive run through her drills, take turns waiting on the side of the pool and play on the steps with her friends, it dawned that the week before was my last class in the pool with Olive.
I know that we all hate getting into our bathing suits every week and managing getting us both dried and changed at the end of class, but I loved being in the pool with Olive. I loved being right there with her when she mastered something or found joy in something. And like so many things in parenthood, I didn’t realize the last time had already happened.
It was funny to see how all the moms reacted after class. After we had greeted our confident and yet slightly bewildered students with warm towels and high fives. After changing them into their clothes and telling them how proud we were of them. We all slowly left the locker room and sort of congregated in front of the teacher’s area, a little bewildered ourselves. Ms Gigi told us that there would be no more moms in the pool and that all the kids were moving up to their first independent swim class. While we were all excited, we were all a bit stunned, too. Weren’t they just in the water for the first time yesterday? Wasn’t there years of Mommy & Me classes left?
The fact is, this is just the beginning of the letting go process for me. Olive goes to school twice a week but she’s carefully monitored there and her snap decisions don’t put her in danger. At swim, sitting on the side of the pool, I see her making choices. Do I sit in listen, patiently wait my turn and follow directions or do I take a risk and jump in the pool on my own? Do I give into worry and cry a little or do I suck it up and put on a brave face? I’m proud to watch her make good choices even when I’m not there to remind her.
The last few weeks have been emotional ones for me as Olive takes so many steps away from being the baby I’ve always known. But they’ve also been exciting weeks that have shown me a lot about her personality. This summer, her independence will grow even more and my role will change (notice how I didn’t give in and use the word “diminish”). She’ll hopefully start soccer lessons at the end of May and she’ll do two weeks of summer camp later in the summer. We’re going to try swim lessons at night for our next session and she’ll have an instructor we’ve had before who I know will expect a lot out of her.
I’ll have to get used to my new job as mom on the sidelines. I’ll need to brush up on my snack packing and cheerleading. And I’ll be learning to fine tune my ability to derive joy from watching and not experiencing.
I found this sweet camera at an antique store in Ohio. My friend, Carla thought it would be a great subject for this weeks topic. Thanks Carla!

I kinda slacked this week so this was one of those last minute shots. I've always wanted to take pictures of stars on long exposure where you can see how they move so I decided to finally give it a shot.
Not too pleased with the outcome, but it wasn't too bad for a first time. I'll definitely try something like this again in the near future.
Hello again, it’s that time of the week where we showcase some of our favourite garms in one outstandingly cool outfit. Welcome to Style Solutions. Last week was one of our best rig-outs to date. So, we’re gonna try our very hardest to top it this week with some more new autumn/winter clobber from the likes of Carhartt, Denim Demon, Libertine Libertine, Herschel Supply Co and Nicholas Deakins.
To kick things off our model has been doing some serious layering. A white Libertine Libertine Brake Helmet tee is accompanied by an unbuttoned Denim Demon Klaase Shirt with the superb Carhartt Heritage Irvine coat. The Lib tee depicts a large chest logo of an American army helmet, which does look exceptionally cool. As for the Denim Demon Klaase shirt, well, there is certainly a lot for your pound in this one. It is made from soft chambray cotton with a button down collar. One key feature includes the use of authentic reindeer horn on the left chest pocket and top collar buttons. To complete the upper half look we now turn to the Carhartt Heritage Irvine coat. The Irvine is a bloody brilliant piece of outerwear which you would be silly to overlook. It is made from an 11.4oz 100% cotton ‘dearborn’ canvas. It also has applicated leather on both the shoulder and elbow areas, for extra durability, it is a work-wear inspired piece after all. The Irvine also has four front pockets and a beautiful looking corduroy collar.
Now we turn to the legwear. We’ve turned away from jeans or chinos this week and gone for a classically stylish pair of Carhartt Klondike corduroys, in navy. The Klondike fit means that they are slim and do taper in below the knee for a bang modern take on a classic staple. However, don’t fear the slimness, they’re not your typical skinny boy fit.
This week’s choice of footwear comes, once again, from the Yorkshire masters, Nicholas Deakins. In particular, we chose the Adle V Shoes, in tan, which have been made in Spain from the finest textured leather. They feature a moccasin whip stitch apron, which uses a triple tension waxed thread. Along with a strong cream rubber sole these babies look awesome in all occasions.
Ok, finishing off the overall look we have chosen a Herschel Supply Co Ravine duffle bag, in nay. This is perfect for weekends away, trips abroad or simply to put your smelly gym kit in, however, we think it’s worth a little more than that though. Give it the love it deserves!

Liam knew he had allot of training to do, but he also knew that nothing beat boarding around with his friends! Will Liam's laziness get the better of him?
