The setup on this shot is as follows:
A single flash, to camera right from a distance of about 15 inches from the egg separator. Shot through a "gel" (Ok not really a gel, but a bottle of Dawn dish detergent about 1 inch off the flash face) on each side of the utensil, and just over are sheets of white copy paper (so, three in all) to catch the white light that escaped around the "gel" and reflect back on the separator.
I tried to give the illusion of a multi-light setup using a single flash.
Assignment: PCA03 - Isolated Subject
Deadline: October 1st, 2007
Mission:
Show us an isolated subject. Razor sharp focus on the subject, and completely blurred to annihilation backgrounds. This can be accomplished by using a wide aperture and having a distant background. If using a less sophisticated camera, try using the portrait mode or macro mode. If you cannot get the background out of focus, then choose a featureless background.
I took a lot of pictures for this assignment and I think I liked the ones of this fence the least, but it is the only one where one subject is in razor sharp focus. All my others ones suffer from soft or blurry edges on the main subject. I did some post-processing work on this photo: cropping and trying to dodge out the bright white spot in the middle of the photo. It sort of worked. I still think it is too bright in comparison to the rest of the background, but any darker and it started to look strange.
Cooking Light Assignment Attempt 1. I'm attempting to play with a negative look for this, with only highlights revealing the form of the subject. I like the way the blue plays off of the scoop, though I'm not overly pleased with the overall composition. I'll probably try again soon, possibly with a different subject in a similar setup.
Strobist: 1 LP180 camera left, full power to blow out background. 1 LP180 High camera right 1/4 power gelled blue for highlights.

Assignment trial shot for Light 102 Umbrella Specular.
I was surprised at the difficulty in the set up. Small changes made a big difference when I was trying to get a halo on old St Nick. This is a 30 inch Santa with a hand carved wood face.
Single white shoot thru umbrella with two SB800's paired into it. Camera D70 with 17-55 lens. CLS used to fire speedlights set on manual 1/8 power. Camera at 1/60 f5.6. White wall about 5 feet to camera left gave slight fill with the shadows.
Take a well-known kids book and recast it as a computer book. Look for inspiration here:

With apologies to Mo Willems ...his Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus book cover has been transformed to a 'computer' book with a little imagination and some posting manipulation. Twitter bird attributed to Shawn Rossi
Pretty sloppy on execution of this one due to time and effort - just did in PP and then downloaded as a jpeg. So the shape to over the original wording didn't match the background and picked up some lines from somewhere?? (though then I saw a potential Post It note and considered tinting it a light yellow for the post - LOL). As well, the font doesn't exactly match, but pretty close. I remember finding the twitter bird created as a CC image for another preso and thought it would be a good addition...just in case it seemed to 'real' - tee hee! :)
Assignment 52 -- Painting with light
Here are Hemingway characters, in a cafe, preparing their drinks: "...the young man poured the water in a very thin stream and the girl watched the absinthe cloud opalescently. It felt warm as her fingers held the glass and then as it lost the yellow cast and began to look milky it cooled sharply and the young man let the water fall in a drop at a time."
(This was taken with two small stationary flashlights pointed at the glass, one on each side, & another flashlight briefly moving along the absinthe spoon handle, then briefly on the stream of water, during the 10 second exposure.)
Practice Day #11: This is my final week in PPSOP, and these are pictures that I submitted as my final assignment. Found these alphabet jellies in the market one day. Wasn't sure what to do with it, but I just thought it was interesting. And then I came up with the idea of lining them up in a tall glass (a quite tricky job!), together with ordinary white jelly balls.
this is a photo of the second part of a photo class assignment i had to present this week. for the assignment we were to make a walk and then also make an intervention of some sort in the environment. for inspiration we were introduced to the work of Richard Long and other walking artists.
for my walk and intervention i went to our property on the north end of Vancouver Island. a few weeks ago there was a landslide in the area and the land mass on the edge of our property and to the south of it underwent a drastic change. i don't have before photographs but a creek that could hardly be seen because of forest and thick undergrowth was now a 100 ft wide open area with trees down everywhere. a pullout between the road and the ocean that could easily fit 5 trucks was now completely gone.
i walked and took photographs of the landslide clean up and then went into the forest nearby and cleared a small area, set out bowls, filled them with earth and pine cones and then lit incense. then i took the bowls of ashes and earth down to the creek and submerged them in the creek.
i've posted each of the photos in this work on my website here
I used a Slow shutter speed and an ISO of 400 so you could actually see me sitting, so Sophie could draw the wings. We had Mandi press the button.

So, first assignment on the Strobist L102 Class...
Set up an object and move the light around to see how it "hits" the object.

Experimenting for the assignment with the outdoors and thought I would do something different. I'm really just learning how to manipulate f/stop and shutter speed to take the picture that I want to and this assignment taught me a lot about the different ratios.
My new guitar...
I took this picture just to show off my new guitar. I also wanted to play around with a 'light thru the blinds' shot that I saw in a lot of the 'noir' submissions from the Lighting 102 assignment. After seeing the finished shot it occurred to me that it might make a reasonable submission for the 'Cross, Balanace, Sculpt' assignment as well... although I've got more Balance and Sculpt than Cross... but oh well :)
Strobist info: Metz 45 outside shooting in thru the blinds at 1/4 power. Viv 285hv camera left (almost even with subject) shooting at 1/2 power thru a Rogue grid (25 degrees).

Done for Photography Critique Assignments. Subject: Low Key
What it Took: I have usually preferred full tonal pictures and have never before attempted a low key photo (on purpose) . So I view some of the examples and the tutorials and went to work
A single light source. Why not my computer which my wife claims sees my face more than she does And if the computer why not "Photography Critique Assignments"?
I set the tripod very close to me and used a wide angle lens. The lens was not more than 18 inches from the back of my head. I turned of the lights in the room. I set the camera on Aperture priority and the EV compensation to -1.0.
I used a tripod and the self-timer. I had used this self-timer so infrequently in the past that it took me a dozen tries to get it figured out.
On the computer I removed some extraneous light coming in from the left of the computer and adjusted the curves. The computer screen still looked to bright so I isolated in and adjusted the levels selectively. I had to also add some brightness and contrast to my head.
Years ago, on a hike through Eastern Oregon's Strawberry Mountains, the woman leading our little group of (not very fit and kinda scared) hikers taught us a little song:
"Be careful what you lean on/It may not hold you up/Or lean freely/And be prepared to make an art of falling."
Most of my adult life, I've made an art of jumping off figurative cliffs without a parachute.
I've quit jobs - and entire careers - without any idea what would come next. I've moved halfway across a continent to pursue a new opportunity that scared the hell out of me. I've dived into chances for love without knowing whether there would be any future in it, and lived through the consequences, even when they ripped my heart apart.
And now, standing on the brink of old age, not knowing what the future may bring ... I can honestly say I don't regret a thing.

Alta Gracia, Dominican Republic
Workers at the Alta Gracia factory, set up as a "fair wage" factory recently by Knights Apparel, which is one of the largest suppliers of t-shirts and sweatshirts to colleges in the US. This factory is paying workers a living wage, about 3.5 times more than they are paid in other factories clothing factories in the DR.
The clothes are sold at a slightly higher price with tags explaining to customers that Alta Gracia (also the name of the clothing line) pays the workers more.
