I generally do not like to complain...about anything. BUT I need some relief! She's only 7 lbs. but she's either in my lap (worse) or on the keyboard or in front of the screen. If I lock her out she scratches at the door and wines. My wife helps but she's got the sister cat to contend with. That's right - double trouble!
It's a wonder I get anything done.

Thanks! Now back to the regularly scheduled photo post...

For the record, laying in rotting mud is no picnic - and the putrid smell lasts long after you get home. But it's very important to me that I get a strong connection to my subject by getting as low as possible. For wading birds and some other animals, this means getting in the mud and water (I wear waders)
A very low angle shot gives you the following benefits:
- a more intimate feeling to the image
- a direct eye-to-eye view
- more connection when you're shooting the photos, which adds to the experience, and enables you to anticipate and capture better moments
- a smoother / softer foreground and background
- shots that stand out, from those of the people who stand up when shooting
- plenty of odd looks and comments from gawking crowds
I appreciate all comments, faves, and follows.

So... I'm trying out DXO's PureRAW and I took one of my "depth finding" shots of the Levy Semaphores. These are throwaway shots used to judge what the shot will look like in a short amount of time... By cranking up the ISO to some ungodly number... in this case, 51200. Completely useless for sharing, but great for telling me in the field what's my image going to look like.
Thanks to DXO's Pure Raw 4, The middle image came out into the world. Further processing in Lightroom classic and Nik ColorEffex results in the lower one... One that's, well, actually usable.
More probally to come now.
Every now and then, I practice still life and product photography. But just for fun. For this one I used a tethered workflow for the very first time.
Visit my website at akikorhonen.org for more projects, thanks!

My DIY ringflash that I've been doing for the last few days.
(Photo, starting from top left) Description
(1) I started with a 24 cm diameter steel bown and a normal food can.
(2) Added some tape on the bowl and drew the cutting lines with the can as a guide.
(3) Bottom from the bowl and can removed. I also shortened the cat a little bit. I first drilled a hole on the bottom of the bowl and then cut the metal with metal cutters.
(4) The two parts connected with strong epoxy that was meant for metals.
(5) Hole for the flash made and few connecting holes drilled. Also the needed aluminum parts are cut and bent in shape.
(6) The bottom part covered with black hockey tape. In the photo it has a Manfrotto quick attachment plate on it. Also has a hole for attaching it to the tripod mount of the camera.
(7) The top part where the flash is attached. Made some holes for the DIY TTL flash cord.
(8) I added some plastic parts for the flash hole to make it look nicer and to prevent light from escaping too much. Next I added some putty to finish it (wasn't necessary but I got too carried away again with the building).
(9) Putty and the bowl fully sanded and waiting for some gray primer and matte black finish.
(10) Painted and finished. Added some black hockey tape on the can's edge to prevent it from scratching the camera.
(11) Close up of the flash hole. A little bit of aluminum foil tape on the inside and black hockey tape on the edge.
(12) White thin fabric streched and being glued on the edges to get some diffusion to the light. There is a rubber band holding the fabric to the can.
See the finished righflash:
* DIY ringflash finished, without camera
* DIY ringflash finished, with camera
Cost: bowl 3€, can 0€, aluminum 1€ + some extra costs from paints etc. but I'm not going to count them to the total. Cheap anyway.

Photoshop Workflow:- Cropped, masked. Black background added, mirror image added with ocean ripple effect, edges blurred, tones altered, selective burning, plastic wrapped, and airbrush shadows added.
A friend of mine recently asked me to take some pictures of his beautiful Aston Martin DB6 convertible, and this was really dry run to see if I could PS a picture and make it into something special for him. His car is also silver so this was a good test of how much I could push the tone and filter settings to deepen the look of the paint without losing the highlights.
My inspiration came from the pictures of Ken Brown, who probably has the nicest car images on Flickr. I don't have his camera, lighting rigs and studio space - only Photoshop! See:- www.flickr.com/photos/7211625@N06/3026458914/

Shortly after sunrise, I found this male Brewer’s Blackbird watching over his territory. His female partner was nearby, on a fence post; unfortunately, she looked sick. A while later, I found the same two birds foraging on the ground, and confirmed that the female had a broken or diseased leg. It’s sad to see, but it is part of nature - and besides, she seemed to be hanging in there just fine, hopping around on one leg and pecking for food. In any case, it was a pleasure to spend a few minutes with this beautiful species.
I appreciate all comments, faves, and follows.

I’m often asked how I create my AI photography images—especially by those using the same tools but getting very different results. Here’s a brief tutorial outlining my process for crafting refined AI visuals:
1.Start with a Line Sketch
Create a clean line drawing of your subject. Scan it at a minimum of 300 dpi for optimal clarity—this resolution consistently yields the best results.
2.Recover with AI Photo Tool
Use an AI photo recovery tool to transform your sketch into a base image. I typically select the “Severe” setting to maximize structural fidelity.
3.Enhance with AI Image Tool
Apply an AI image enhancement tool to refine detail. I prefer Version 2 with a 6-pass setting and the “Photography” filter for depth and realism.
4.Retouch for Precision
Use a photography retouch tool to eliminate blemishes, wrinkles, extra fingers, or other AI-generated artifacts. Zoom in closely to catch subtle errors. The lasso tool offers excellent control once mastered.
5.Smooth with Light Enhancement
Apply a light-setting enhancement to correct any smearing from the retouch phase. This step improves lighting, restores clarity, and sharpens the final image.
6.Finalize with Branding
Add your watermark or company symbol to complete the piece and protect your creative identity.
