Assignment 52 -- Experiments in aperture settings -- taken at f 22
Emphasis on "experiment." I'd have expected to have a wider dof & sharper distant focus at this aperture. Maybe that was a function of the short focal length? Maybe I should have brought my tripod? This is severely cropped -- I was kneeling on the ground at the base of the trunk when I took it, with a long expanse of trunk, but I didn't like the way that view came out against the blown/cloudy sky. So the foreground here is actually middle range of what was taken.
Central Buses Plaxton President bodied Dennis Trident X602EGK, still in previous owner's EnsignBus colours of blue and silver but looking in good condition stands at One Stop bus station, Perry Barr between assignments on September 15th 2014.
This is a pano from 5 vertical shots. We dont get much cool weather here in SoCal, so I was happy to see these clouds, which were actually a different shot from later in the day.
Strobist: bare 550ex about 6 feet from subject on camera right, and another on camera left.
I took out a tree in the background, but you can still see the reflection...
I've now moved on from DPS assignments(more's the pity) You can follow my blog as I explore New Zealand here-
Believe me, this was way harder to achieve than it looks. I had to do two trips to the beach as I just could not get the angles right on the first day. The angles of the vertical lines changed depending on how far the camera was from the box, what the POV angle was and how wide I had my lens, and not being able to clearly see my screen on my camera didn't help either. I had to enlist Mr FKG to help me draw it today, it took over an hour to get it right(and it could have still done with some tweaking) but we were running out of light.
"Best of the Year 2012"- Sand Box
This was orignally submitted for the Forced Perspective assignment. I chose this shot for my "Best of Year" mainly because of the planning and the time & effort that went into creating it which included two visits to the beach (as I just couldn't get the angles right the first time). While it might look simple enough it was a tough challenge to draw, I had to draw around 10 large "boxes" before I finally got the right perspective.
A pretty complicated setup for a relatively plain shot. This week's submission for the next 102 assignment, the concept being 'going green'. Seeing as we are going through a phase of 'grow your own' at home, I thought that a shot symbolising this would be in order. However, I didn't bank on the unfeasibly good weather that we have for the last two days. This is great for the suntan and the bbq skills, but less so for the strobist fun, as it's far too bright to take any outdoor shots during the day.
By the time the evening comes bringing more appealing light, I've generally had a glass or two of vino (especially as there was a certain sports game this afternoon that shall not be mentioned); and I can't get my head around the finer points of subtle lighting after booze.
Strobist: SB28 in snoot rear and camera right, providing the hard directional light on the right hand side of the 'hill'. A silver 'tin foil' reflector slightly above the camera angled down to provide the main fill on the shot. Two tricky bits:
i) I had to gobo the bare light with a) my laptop (makes a good flag) and b) a bit of gaffer tape stuck to my laptop, in order to prevent nuking the stem and leaf.
ii) it was tricky to get the reflected light to hit 'just' where I wanted it, so I stuck a torch (flashlight) on top of the strobe to get an idea of what the light was doing.
Practice Day #9: Still from my assignment in PPSOP Food Photography course. This time we're allowed to use props and to set up a simple still-life. And I'm choosing a birthday party set-up as a theme. This week-2 assignment emphasizes on working out different angles, lenses, DOFs. This one is using 50mm/f1.8 lens.
Assignment 52: Represent your own brand of holiday madness during this busy & festive season.
So here is Po, no more pleased to be posing with Christmas tree lights than she was the first time around, despite the caption I chose for the cards. Call it irony if you wish -- can't every holiday use some? Po actually is quite a joyful dog, & always well-rewarded for posing! (And I'm joyful that I managed to get cards printed this year! Now to start mailing---)

Submission for Active Assignment Weekly: Nov 30 - Dec 7 "Tension"
I see two forms of "Tension" here: 1) the tension between seasons, and 2) the natural tension of the plant covering itself so tightly. I did some post processing to remove distractions and get closer to the "tense" part of the flower.
Match hues in one of your paintings and place them on a grid with those in the center vertical row being the most important.
Here is some characterful in-situ concrete adorning the Bedford Way façade of Logan Hall, UCL, in the Bloomsbury district of London. Notice the detailing left behind after the wooden shuttering - into which the concrete was poured - was removed. Photographed on Tuesday 17th August 2021.
Logan Hall was designed by Sir Denys Lasdun and opened in 1977. It was subsequently awarded a Grade II* listing.

Active Assignment Weekly: Minimalism/K.I.S.S
This is my second and final photo submission for this assignment, but my fourth attempt at high speed water drop photography. I think this is my best so far! I think that the negative space and the singular subject qualifies it as "Minimalist".
What it took: WELL, the setup is a ziploc bag of water clipped onto my background stand, dripping down onto a piece of glass which is on top of a pan to catch the water. I have a blue piece of paper behind that, and my external flash is pointed toward the background paper. The flash is set on 1/64 power, and the camera is set at shutter speed 1/200 and f/13.
Photo exam assignment. It's a folding chair with an exposure of roughly 30-40 seconds, moved a sparkler behind the chair.

WIT
I went to the beach tonight with my tripod and took numerous photos of people in motion. I liked this one the best. Black and white conversion with blue filter.
Active Assignment Weekly: April 15-22, 2024, Simplicity. To me, simplicity means no distractions. I decided to use two of the many different techniques available to achieve this - fill the frame ("After the Rain") and negative space ("Beach Time"). Both photos were taken at Point Pelee National Park, Ontario. You'll be seeing a lot of pictures from this park, as I am here for two months (it is a bird migration hotspot).

Lydie's assignment 29. Movie poster. Rather plain, not as cool as I pictured it. May redo the whole thing with a new concept if I find the time. Then again, I always say that.
And yes. Again, just some simple simple frankensteining, then the mask and some shading. I'm a horrible slacker...
