A friend of mine started a new group called Simply Creative and this shot is for the first assignment: Find something un-interesting around the house (or wherever) and shoot it to make it more interesting. This is an artsy little ceramic grasshopper I bought in North Carolina a few years ago. I experimented with light and shadow and this is how it came out. (if you like to be a little crazy with your camera, come join us!)

only reason i post this, is that incredibly fake-looking pigeon in the top left corner.
it resembles something cut out by a kid in kindergarten.
a scarce criteria i know, but look at it this way; at least now you get to know more about the meaningless ups & downs of what gets this humble specimen's laughter engine to heat up..
These are the photos for yesterday's post that were taken on my 5D that I wasn't able to edit in time due to leaving the card reader at home. Some of these photos I was too proud of not to post. The 5D is just such a beautiful camera and takes such beautiful photos. I need to use it more.
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.
As you can see, I have a lot to work on this weekend. All of my assignments are due on Monday, so time to get crackin'. Oh, and when I'm doing writing assignments for my class, I have to then grade final exams and assignemtns from my students.
One more week . . .
Strobist:
1 sb600 camera left and ovehread, 1/32 power, 1/2 CTO through speed grid
1 sb600 camera right, 1/32 power, 1/2 CTO through 12'' cardboard snoot.
Triggered with Cactus V4s.
Assignment 52 -- October Colors
The leaves around here have been very slow to turn this fall, & all the leaves in my own trees are still green. I found quite a lot of color at the Arboretum, though. So much that I had a hard time choosing for the assignment. Here's the link to others:
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.
Camera settings:
Monochrome
Red Filter
High Sharpness
High Contrast
f 7.1
1/250
ISO 100
Auto White Balance
Spot metered
Lens 70-200 and shot at 200mm
Opened in DPP then sent to Photoshop (DPP converts the file to a TIFF) where a minor adjustment to levels and high pass filter were applied.
I love this camera setting!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks cacheboyz!!!!! :-))

First attempt at Styling. Trying to make it feel like English Tea Time. After taking it I realized I hadn't left enough space around the outside for copy.
Used LED Lighting. One Godox ML 150 Bi, and an ML 80 Bi both with Neewer octagonal softboxes.
This is my first attempt at a photo assignment. I am new to photography and thought this forum was a good one to push myself. I don't have any equipment; just a camera.

Spring comes early to the Côte d'Azure! You see me here enjoying a stroll in the sunshine before a professional escort engagement with M. Raymond Boucher, formerly the chief examining judge in the case of my former husband’s mysterious death in a private plane crash.
Today, I am mulling over an invitation I have recently received for a one-to-one meeting with the elusive Monsieur Pierre Collager, to discuss matters arising about the ownership of my late husband’s business empire - and Collager’s ongoing position (if any) with the holding company, Palindrome Finance.
Collager has asked me to travel to Luxembourg to meet him in person after my shooting assignment with Chad Bronco in Prague. Should I stay or should I go?
Toodle pip!
Love and Kisses to All!

Today, I was given the greatest treasure. My mother gave me my grandmother's Bible. I always remembered my grandmother being a spiritual person. I didn't realize how much until I saw her Bible. I have never seen a Bible so worn and studied in my life. She made the cross bookmark. This Bible is filled with her thoughts and verses that were important to her. Plus all kinds of poems and newspaper clippings she used as bookmarks. Not to mention the family history she recorded in it. I have a great start to researching my family tree. This book is so fagile and delicate. It means the world to me.
