Assignment 52 -- "Fine Art" -- what might you hang on your wall?
This assignment inspired me to experiment with HDR, to attempt an "old masters'" sort of glow to a still life. Amazingly fun & addictive!
(Shot in natural light, late afternoon sun.)
Active Assignment Weekly: Reflections
Reflection of a tree and greenery in the water. The actual roots are in the photo.
On our vacation to the New Brunswick we were visiting this old farm and found these three beautiful kittens in the barn. They were so friendly we wanted to take them home.
The photo challenge of week 41 was GET PUSHED. Another participant of the Challenge looked at my profile and gave me an assignment to take a picture that I had never taken before, or at least something that I would not normally take a picture of, so out of my comfort zone. He asked me to make a photo of something blue…….
I was on a short break in Belgium, in Ieper and the weather was not always good. A lot of rain, and luckily also a sign of a blue sky! So I made this abstract photo of the raindrops on the window, with a little blue sky in the background.

Assignment 7 - Shoot in A, S, and M Modes.
This was shot in Shutter Priority Mode so I could lock in the long exposure time needed to capture the car lights as a blur.
I ended up changing the Shutter speed a lot before I was able t find what would work for this environment. To short and the cars ended up frozen. To long and everything got very confusing as to many cars came by. In this case 3-4 seconds seemed to work well
They all fit nicely into this ONA Brixton. Question is... Do I need all of them on assignment?
Since getting rid of all my Canon gear last summer, I am very happy with the image quality of the Fuji X-System and its' form factor. Much more portable!
PCA time!

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.
Along with everything else in life, my work hasn’t been too stable lately either. Just 2 years ago we had plenty of business, I racked up over 60,000 miles flying to Japan 3 times, and all over because we had plenty of work going on. Now, amid layoffs and everything else, I’ve been scraping around, looking for travel assignments and work. I even volunteered to head out to the desert in July to support an exercise. I missed out on the trips to South Korea because of scheduling conflicts, but was just offered a quick trip in mid-May.
Colorado Springs, Co. May 17-20
I was there back in 1997 for work and it was such a naturally beautiful area. Didn’t know a lick about taking pictures, so I’ve been doing a little research about there and the surrounding areas. Unfortunately it appears that the Rocky Mountains won’t be in full bloom until June/July?? What’s up with dat??
Anyone have recommendations for things/places to see in central Colorado?
It’s a quick training trip, so I hopefully will have a little bit of time to roam the mountains after work with my camera in search of that idyllic barn shot with the mountains in the background. Even if not, I’ll be surrounded by all of God’s glory and might find some sheep, deer, caribou or other random creature. Hope I can get up close enough with my 85mm lens, I don’t own anything longer.
