Assignment 52: Rainbow's End, in tribute to Frederick Rohde VI, brother of Mama Rhodes
Gold-leaf bowl by Cheryl Williams, my mother's turquoise necklace & small memento mori from my parents' house
A different take on the pot of gold, representing memories of far flung family & friends, & those departed, with this quote from "Housekeeping" by M. Robinson, one of the books I turn to often: " ... in the hope that memory will fulfill itself & become flesh, & that the wanderers will find a way home, & the perished, whose lack we always feel, will step through the door finally and stroke our hair with dreaming, habitual fondness, not having meant to keep us waiting long."
Taken for Active Assignment Weekly: Clouds
First of all, let me thank gfpeck for coming up with this assignment idea. I would have to say that prior to Saturday morning when it had either been completely overcasted or completely clear skys that I was not very happy with this assignment.
Saturday morning, however, turned into one of my best picture taking learning experiences ever. Bare with me, this is going to get a little wordy, but hpping you can relate to it as a fellow picture taker.
It all started at 6:30am. Went out in hopes of catching some interesting clouds only to see blankets of cloud overhead. Not hopeful. At around 6:45am, I noticed that the wind picked up to around 30 miles per hour which started to stir the clouds a bit. At the same time, I could tell that the sunrise was trying to fight it's way through the think sheets of clouds. Before I knew it, the wind started to break up the clouds significantly causing the scenery to change all around me. On the one hand, the sun rays were beaming through the clouds, on the other hand, the clouds behind and to the side of me were receiving pinkish light from the sunrise. We had our share of dark clouds too. It became a cloud wonderland.
I had my tripod set up (for a change) and found myself turning everywhich way to catch a picture. I'm learning about RAW images and exposure, so with every scene, I experimented with different shutter speeds and just thoroughly enjoyed how the results differed with every exposure change. With the wind blowing hard, the scenery, lighting, and colors, even changed between exposure adjustments. Nothing stayed still for me to shoot for more than a minute (crazy, but fun). In under 60 minutes, I got to watch the clouds dance between the sun and the light that it produced. Magnificent.
I couldn't believe I ended up snapping over 250 shots in raw (luckily I have a large memory card). I struggled with which 2 pictures to submit. There were other pictures that I took which were more focused on light. I ended up submitting to AAW pictures that emphsized the clouds. I've posted a mosaic of those pictures to share here (if interested).

WIT: Converted from RAW to Jpeg. Increased "black" and contrast to intensify gradient effect.

Taken for the Assignment 52 group- week 32: Sun burst (sorry- had this mis-labeled)
I always thought this was done with a certain filter. I didn't realize that an aperture priority setting and F-16 setting would accomplish this! Really happy with how this came out!

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:
I had a hard time choosing which picture to submit for this assignment, and I ended up choosing one of the very last ones I took this weekend. My favorite aspects of this photo are the reflections and the colors of the lights.
Shooting with one of my favorite models :-)
Strobist info: SB-28, nearly on-axis, shot through a white umbrella.

The actual assignment was "juxtaposition". "The Underbelly" is my title for these photos. The assignment was to basically make a diptych or triptych or whatever. Just to put photos next to each other that made it interesting or made a statement or just made art!
I took these photos w/my iPhone's Hipstamatic camera. These are photos of the inside of the mall I used to work at. I would sometimes have to take out the trash from the store I worked at in the mall. In order to do so, I had to use the mall's freight elevators to get to the compactor.
The elevators often got stuck (I got stuck in it once, actually) so we always took our cell phones w/us while taking out the trash. Well, this allowed for some good chances for photos. :3
The 1st photo is of the inside of one of these elevators. They were VERY CREEPY! >.< It was like something out of a horror movie. The light was dim, it smelled stale and nasty, and worst of all the elevators made these horrible screeching noises as the moved. o_O;
The 2nd photo is some graffiti I found on one of the inner walls. As you can see, someone has made it look like Teresa is now in love w/Stalin. XD This rather amused me. This might be my favorite photo I did for this class.
Slighty more difficult to work with than last week's potato masher
Strobist info: SB26 in shoot through brolly camera right, to light the subject and background. Fill card CL.
The brief for PwDP Assignment Five is, apparently, oriented towards photojournalism - photograph an event and market the results to relevant publications. This series is my own response. The background is in my blog, here - stansocapwdp.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Assignment Five.
It relates to a major sporting 'event' of the summer - The Ashes Test Series of cricket matches between England & Australia - but also to my research of contemporary still life photography for Assignment Four; questions around the way photographers might respond to image-saturation in the digital/internet world; and maybe questions around the 'truth' of photographic images. The intended outcome is a series of large prints but, hopefully, these digital versions provide some sense of what is intended.
