Physical depth check of mesh surface 1. I wanted to see what the mesh surface would look like and how well I could get into the corners. Z axis on the mill was acting up so I set the height optically. It is around one thou and change. Two thou seems to be good for over-all relief. In this test I cut the perimeter first with a four thou D-bit and then plowed the middle by eye with a well used 1/32 endmill. I think better hand feed could help the finish. Doing it the way I did, the bigger EM burred over the corners cut by the D-bit. I dug them out with an exacto ground into a scraper. It was not really keen enough for the task. As far as benching is concerned, I'll need to make some new abrasive pads to clean up the surface.

Fitzgibbons’ Domination Continues at Subaru Pro TSB Bank Women’s Surf Festival
TARANAKI, New Plymouth/New Zealand (Friday, April 28, 2011) – ASP World No. 2 Sally Fitzgibbons (AUS) continued to push the envelope and revealing the depth of her surfing talent by smashing the scoreboard with near perfect scores to charge into the quarterfinals of the ASP Subaru Pro TSB Bank Women’s Surf Festival in New Zealand on Friday April 29, 2011.
Clean half-meter waves at Back Beach, Taranaki saw rounds two and three completed and the eight Quarterfinalists decided.
By far the event’s top performer, Fitzgibbons’ confidence was palpable as she unleashed yet another flawless performance to post 9.75 and 9.25 scores (out of ten) for a combined heat total of 19.00 (out of 20.00), defeating Chelsea Hedges (AUS) and Melanie Bartels (HAW) .
“I guess I just have a lot of confidence right now, I feel like my surfing was improving especially at the start of the year and I really wanted to bring that to my events and try to showcase some of the things I’ve been working on,” Fitzgibbons said. “It’s almost like feedback getting good scores, it means I’m on the right track.”
While high scores and standout performances are not uncharacteristic from Fitzgibbons, it remains to be seen whether her victory at Bells has changed the playing field for the Aussie talent who will be determined to take the podium’s top spot at the weekend’s final.
“Of course it is difficult to keep that momentum going but I think it’s all about trying to pick the eyes out of what you’ve got on the day. These waves are similar to what I surf at home and I’m just trying to surf nice and fast bring something new to the table and get in that excellent scoring range, it’s definitely tricky.”
ASP World Title No. 7 Courtney Conlogue (USA) completed a dream performance during round 3, taking down ASP ratings leader and defending Subaru Pro Champion Carissa Moore (HAW) in dramatic fashion.
“Carissa has been on game this whole year, she’s been performing really well so it was good to get one up on her today,” Conlogue said. “I lost against her in the Quarterfinals at Bells and she ended up getting into the finals so it feels pretty good to know I don’t have to surf again in Round 4.”
Conlogue unleashed her powerful, vertical surfing, sticking to her ‘Carissa Moore game plan’ by opening with an excellent 8.25 and sealing the deal with an 8.75 (both out of ten) to advance into the quarterfinals.
“Anytime you have a heat against Carissa you know you need to get above sevens to win and, even then, you might need nines. This year is really a learning year for me, it would be nice to be top five and it’s a definitely a goal of mine so I’m trying as hard as I can get there.”
Coco Ho (HAW) proved another of the day’s giant killers, joining local favourite Paige Hareb in taking down four times ASP World Champion Stephanie Gilmore (AUS) who placed third.
“It was kinda just one of those heats where you have nothing to lose, that‘s how I always look at it with Steph,” Ho said. “I’ve had all Quarterfinals so far this year so I’m really looking to get past that round and hopefully get a good result.”
ASP World Tour rookie Tyler Wright bounced back from a slow start yesterday, keeping busy in her Round 3 exchange by building on her scores before locking in a 7.25 followed by a 7.75 (both out of 10) to snatch the win off Silvana Lima (BRA) and Rebecca Woods (AUS).
“I kind of sussed it out this morning and that helped a lot through that heat,” Wright said. “I think the main thing for me was to keep busy and just try and build on my scores and that’s what I did.”
The current ASP World No. 3 is a recognized threat on this year’s ASP Women’s World Title Tour and has her target firmly fixed on the current front runners.
“It’s pretty cool to get through that one but Sal and Carissa are still ripping and they’re probably the benchmark at the moment. Sal is surfing unbelievably well and I’m still trying to get there but I’m just going to keep working at it and make sure I have fun along the way.”

A couple of buddies checking their computers to see their depth, time underwater and tank psi before going further to explore more underwater Maldivian life.
This time I wanted to focus on my son. It really looks like he is way up in his tree because I used depth of field. Also, I really love his posture and facial expression, it looks like he has conquered this tree. f/5.6 1/160
Post - narrow depth of field. If I can call it that.

Rules of composition
-It creates dimension in the photo. Includes: foreground, middleground and background.
Why is this a good Picture
-This picture is good because it repeating shapes to give a sense of depth. It can also feel the foreground to make objects in the background feel more far away. It is a good example of the rule of composition, Depth.
How can this be improved
-This picture can be improved if taken from a much cleaner background or table to perform better looking of main object.
I zoomed in on the bee and focused on its body and mainly the wings.I wanted you to be able to see the texture of the wings.The flowers are visible but not fully able to see them.

Taking this one took much more time that it should have. I had to keep requesting people to get away from this 25 m long corridor of pillars. And that'd be too many people, right? :D
Its alongside a very crowded way inside the Maharaja's Palace. Don't let the non human footprint nature of this image fool you. There were at least a 100 people around on this 4 walled walkway. haha. I composed it such that none of them was visible.
Have a great day everyone. I hope you like this.

It’s a long story, which…well, I’ll tell long.
As my wife and I sat on our front porch this afternoon, enjoying a cup of coffee while watching a light rain fall, the conversation drifted to photography. We have a mutual interest in the subject now that she has a Nikon D40.
My wife expressed frustration not being able to shoot close-ups, citing several I had done that she really liked. We talked about aperture control, in which I reminded her of the lessons we did together before she had to park her camera (a different story I won’t get into other than to say she’s well mended, now).
She also complained that I had an eye for pictures whereas she did not. I disagreed, of course.
A few cars passed by, more rain fell and the cups grew empty. I mentioned (almost in passing) that I “saw” a pretty picture just waiting to be taken then and there. Puzzled, she said, “Where?” I pointed out the pretty (but very wet) bluebell plant sitting in the garden that borders our front porch.
Out came the tripod (very handy on gray, overcast days) and my Nikon D50. Armed with the 60mm f/2.8 lens, we snuck up on the unsuspecting leaf, positioned the camera and proceeded to take a series of pictures using various apertures. Instantly, the previous lessons in controlling depth of field via aperture priority settings came to her. Suddenly, she didn’t feel so photographically inept after all.
This was my favorite of the half dozen I shot. ISO 400, f/8, 1/200, RAW, 60mm (standard, not in 1:1 mode).
It was kind of funny, although I don’t think of myself as an accomplished photographer, it struck me just how much I know and how easily I take that knowledge for granted.
Post-edited in Photoshop, to include a little cropping, sharpening and noise control. Oh yeah...post processing is a whole other story in and of itself!
