Active Assignment Weekly: Long exposure. I confess, I intended to do some long exposure at the Latin American street festival yesterday, but I plain forgot.
Here is a tram (streetcar) going past our building. Taken from our balcony on the 36th floor with the camera way over the railing.
What it took: Saturation maxed, contrast maxed, Flickr filter Lorno. Cropped a few mm to get rid of a shadow of a car in the top right corner.
It's very sunny and bright right now, well, it has been for the last few weeks. It's difficult to do long exposures during the day with a max of f/8. I think this came out ok, though, in the end.
Active Assignment Weekly: Haunted/Haunting
The assignment - It’s a bit early, but show something haunting in your image. Stretch the definition of haunting and show us something “hauntingly beautiful,” “hauntingly familiar,” or just plain haunted.
Restriction: None
Dare: Try to represent two different time periods in your image.
WIT: The shot of the building was taken during a Haunted Chicago tour. This is the Oriental Theater, which is built on the same location and footprint of the doomed Iroquois Theater. On December 30, 1903, more than 600 people were killed during the deadliest single-building fire in the United States. The Oriental, as a result, is said to be haunted and many ghostly shadows and noises are heard throughout. Alas, I did not see a ghost, but my ghostly pale beautiful daughter volunteered to pose in a window of our house taken at the same angle. I then removed her head from that and copied into a decreased opacity layer of the shot I took of the theater. I adjusted saturation and added a cooling filter in PSE.

The aircraft used for the project was pre-production TF-15A (F-15B) #1 (USAF S/N 71-0290), the first delivered F-15 airframe, which is on loan to NASA from the United States Air Force

Taken for "Active Assignment Weekly" YinYang
ASSIGNMENT: Yin and yang are generalizations of the antithesis or mutual correlation between certain objects or phenomena in the natural world, combining to create a unity of opposites.
WIT: I opened my I Ching to the hexagram of T'ai (Peace). It is made up of two trigrams: the Yin (female/dark/yielding) trigram over the Yang (male/light/creative) trigram. The method of consulting the oracle is tossing 3 coins; that's why the coins are included. The shell looks to me like the stylized YinYang symbol. The image of the two weathered hands, slightly touching and resting peacfully, is from a card I happened to have. It seems to epitomize the YinYang principle in relationships. I put a bamboo mat over a small bureau under a window and closed one of the curtains to give a dark/light effect to reinforce the YinYang theme.
Thank you North60 for the cropping suggestion - as you can see, I used it.
Active Assignment Weekly for December 28-January 3: Metal/Metallic
This week's assignment is to explore the challenge of photographing shiny metallic objects. The subject doesn't necessarily need to be made of metal, but it must convey the essence of being metallic (such as having the iridescent and reflective properties of metal). Heavily rusted metal does't count. Look for items like chrome, polished steel, freshly cut metal surfaces, spoons, foil. Buff it up and show me the shine.
Dare: Photograph a spherical object and/or incorporate lots of color
Restriction: None
This was yet another idea derived while sitting on the john. This is a toilet paper holder for spare rolls and I thought it would fit the assignment rather nicely.
So, I originally shot this with a black background but then I noticed the dare while I was adding my WIT and I thought I should reshoot it with some color :-) I am glad I did because I got this cool shadow with the lighter background.
WIT: Used my SB600 strobe on the floor pointing at the paper holder with the paper holder in between the camera and the flash. Tried different angles until I got a result I liked. In Lightroom cropped and upped contrast.

I wonder what makes a driveway active - its participation in athletics or swimming?

So I've not been active for a few weeks. Life has a way of spontaneously exploding like that. I wasn't going to submit this week, but after I took this picture to make a friend laugh, I had to share it with you guys. I know we have a beautiful international group, so I'll explain this delicious lunch I made. I present to you the spaghetti sandwich made with a hamburger bun and leftovers from last night. Oh, and make that a "sesame seed" bun, because I'm particular and fancy. Taken on my android phone and leveled in Photoshop. Quality is low but I hope you all enjoy. ;)
