What is the "Brown Box Challenge" you ask? It was the brainchild of Hally Brown of the Sandwich Photographic Society. The intent to spark creativity and inspire participants to pick up our cameras in the winter, a time in which many of us suffer from cabin fever. Participants were given a select set of items in a non-descript brown box and had to submit 1 final image based on those items. How the image was taken did not matter, so long as every item in the box had to be used in some form or fashion. Beyond that, the rules were fairly simple:

 

The Rules:

The Must Do’s:

• Each of the items in the box must be used in the final image.

• Each of the items in the box must be easily identified in the final image.

• The only exception is, there is the Zip-Lock Bag in the box, the bag it’s self is not one of the items. There are multiple items in the bag and you can use any number of them in the final image.

• Your image must be lit using some form of lighting other than ambient. Light painting, Flash, or any other form of lighting is acceptable.

 

The Can Do’s:

• You can crop or use any portion of an item it must be easily identifiable in the final image.

• You can use each item more than once if you like. (Yes, Photoshop can be used).

• You can add any other component you want to the image (Please keep it clean).

 

The Cant Do’s:

• The items cannot be physically altered in any way.

• You can’t discuss the items in the box with anyone.

• Do not share your photos with anyone until the challenge is over. You may be giving ideas to the participants of the challenge.

 

In my box were the following items:

• Minion character

• Hot Wheels convertible car

• Some little "dude" action figure

• Bolt

• Mini alphebet blocks consisting of nearly every letter of the alphabet (A, E, U were missing from my set)

• Swatch of gray felt

 

I chose to photograph each item individually using a Foldio3 lightbox (purchased from a 2017 Kickstarter campaign) and assemble them in Photoshop. To test the Foldio lightbox, I decided to throw in some action figures & models that I had collected over the years so I could get my lighting right. I liked the results, and opted to create a "battle" scene, with the intent to incorporated everything. However, with time winding down before the deadline, only a few Zoids action figures made the cut.

 

In the final image above, 18 individual images were assembled in Photoshop to created this "battle" mosaic. Two different images of the same bolt were duplicated, while a few letter blocks were also repeated. Two different angles of the gray felt were also colorized to create the "fireball" look on the lion and gorilla Zoids.

A number of railway stations have acquired these train themed plant boxes, including this one at Carlisle. In the background Scotrail Class 156 'Super Sprinter' diesel multiple unit 156 439 can be seen awaiting its next duty.

The Music Box Theatre was completed in 1929 at 3733 N. Southport Ave. in a building that included nine storefronts and 32 apartments. The building was designed by Louis A. Simon, a local architect who was better known for his Depression-era WPA Post Offices and homes for the nouveau riche. Between 1977 and 1983, the Music Box was used sporadically for Spanish language, pornographic and Arabic language films. In 1983, management reopened the theater with a format of double-feature revival and repertory films. Eventually, foreign films were reinstated, and independent and cult films were added to the roster. In 1991, management added a second screen. Rather than split the main theater in two, a small theater was built in an existing storefront adjacent to the lobby.

A further box visit back in October 2015 was Ulceby Signal Box.

 

Ulceby had evolved to cover quite a significant area compared with its original area. It had a reduced frame and an IFS panel. There was also room for a panel to cover Brocklesby but this never happened.

 

Sadly the box was demolished with undue haste following closure, before the local S&T even had time to recover equipment for spares, the box coming down with everything still in place.

The box is large - easily as big as the largest modern sets like the Technic flagships. The front has a decent photo of the set, although it's so large of a layout that even Lego couldn't get it all to fit the box without an inset.

I repurposed this box from some camping equipment to wrap the repainted retro Batcopter project I started for my son last summer. The copter and box have been tucked away until now for his birthday!

Saving pretty boxes, ribbon and paper, and tying it all up with string, makes for a lovely little package.

My old mending box on the left, a beautiful new replacement on the right. There was nothing wrong with the old one; the new one is a pleasure to use. It is all about quality. The new one is made of better wood, more smoothly finished, with higher quality hinges and better handles. A much appreciated gift!

BOX OF SHADOWS

Edition of 4 signed boxes

For sale at : www.tiradalimitada.com

 

This Box of Shadows collection has been inspired by the work “U.S.A. Surpasses all the genocide records!” that George Maciunas made in 1969 as a way of protest against the Vietnam War pointing out the violence in the world and specially that of the U.S.A.

Now I have wanted to broaden it by showing the number of deaths in the most bloody wars in history of man, always consequence of the ambition of a greedy minority.

I conclude with a card that poses the question of how many casualties will left the global financial crisis that started in 2008, now considered by many as our III War World.

 

For the time being we have only information about the people killed in protests, occupations and rallies, or of those who have killed themselves bankrupt for junk bonds, subprime credits or whatever other kind of those economy tricks, but we should start counting all the people slowly dying at home in the streets or in hospitals by depression, hunger, shame, or rage due to the cuts in the welfare state.

 

Inside the box there are 12 cards with a drawing on one side and one of the following texts on the other:

 

Card 1

Spanish Civil War 1936- 1950: 700,000 dead

 

Card 2

The only clues that I have so far are these. On the back of one of the boxes there is some hand writing:

“Decoration Day Procession” which later became Veterans Day.

“Crematory”

“1898”

This box lid was inspired by some Pysanka egg designs and i wanted to capture the feel of them in glass. Its not the largest box I have ever done, but it was one of the most difficult and intricate. The tree in the diamond in the center is only 1.5 inches high. I am quite pleased with how it turned out.

My jewelry box. I chose this object for a topic because I like the dark and light color combinations of green on it.
