This describes a bit the experience of the Goma fire ritual performed by the monks of the Muryokoin, a Shingon Temple and Shukubo in Koyasan. It started at 6.00, which was only possible due to the jet-lag. I did like that the head priest and owner of the Sukubo leading the ritual later sat with us during breakfast, explaining the ceremony and answering all our questions.

"I am creating the illusion of diffused lighting in the setting of this painting by placing the well-lit character (that is saturated in color) in a darker room. Mars black is a relatively opaque color that will give good coverage on a white canvas, another option is ivory black." ~Tomitheos

  

STEP 3

 

Diffused lighting occurs when the light is filtered, this can be achieved in the painting's setting by softening the shadows, darkening the colors, and by eliminating stark contrasts..

After shooting out in the cool spring air of Lund's Botanical Gardens in March my lens fogged up in the warm, humid air of the glasshouse. Rather than letting this stop shooting I carried on with the fog acting as a kind of soft-focus filter.

it's been awhile...

Portrait of a friend in Tampa at sunset on top of the building where she works. She wanted to "do something" so I let her play the role of 'chatty girl with phone'. This was made at the end of a day learning about using one light to make interestingly lit portraits. I had to take several to get her look right - she's picky that way.

 

Also, got the adjacent building's 'uplight' coming around through her hair for a touch of kicker.

 

Flickr contact earthwaterfireair's photos inspired me on this one. She is constantly pushing her creative side.

 

A little mist was hanging in the trees while hiking on Fromme. It didn't matter which way or trail we chose, the exploring was fun.

Another view of the black fabric additions.

Camera: Nikon D200

Lens: 90mm @ f/5,6

ISO: 100

Lightning: Nikon SB800 through a Diffusor bounced by a gold reflector

This is the diffuser that i use for my macro photography. I just it on my Yongnuo 565ex flash.

 

Material used

- Take away food container

- Aluminum foil

- Tape

- Foam (Came wrapped around my flash box to protect it in mail)

- Fabric (Some prints i got done came wrapped with this stuff)

 

So i have traced around the flash head onto the bottom of the container with a marker and cut it out. I have put tape around the edge of the cut out (stop scratching accuring on the flash head when i take the diffuser on and off ). Next i lined the inside with aluminum foil. Ive then put the lid on the container, layed the fabric over the outer side of the lid and taped it down. The fabric is 2 layers thick and last i inserted the piece of foam into the container and pushed it agianst the roof of the lid and thats it !!

 

Hope that made sence if you have any Questions feel free to comment

Self-portrait series. Day 59.

AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.8

Cut from a plastic binder and made to fit in the camera's hot shoe, in this case on a D80. It folds back on itself and locks together.

 

Cost? Not very much. The A4 plastic binder was $2.20. I made this diffuser plus a couple of diffusers for regular flashes from just half of the material.

A gorgeous goddess for all my flickr fans! She's from Germany. :) Many, many more to come! We shot all afternoon under a cloudy hazy sky which diffused the rays of the Sun God Helios. :) Amazing abs! Tall, thin, and fit with super-fine, long goddess hair! In the Socal sand.

 

Here's some video of the epic goddess!!

Although the outside of the box is covered in black paper or fabric, inside it's still white foamcore.

Just got my Sigma 500 super dg flash back from repair (started behaving oddly after about 30000 shots) which meant I have two flashes ,two camera bodies,2 macro lenses but only one flash bracket. So decided to try and do a diffuser for a camera mounted flash gun with the aim of diffusing the light plus reducing the amount of power used in each flash (for quick cycle times). Did my normal plastic milk bottle, duct tape, aluminium foil, kitchen towel quick and dirty job. Much to my suprise seems to have achieved both objectives :)

Inside of the diffuser with aluminium foil on top and bottom of the inside to encourage the light to go round the bend :)

Essential Oil diffusing jewelry set! I have finally finished this new design. I am so happy with it.

If you want to check your home-made diffuser's reflections, the best idea is to shoot a jumping spider from frontal view. Their eyes are the best bulging mirrors in the world of arthropods.

EXIF

The next step to improving light leakage was to make, out of black fabric, a sleeve to go over the hole in the side of the box and a skirt around the base. I'd noticed that my diffuser didn't quite sit flush onto the back of the camera so the skirt helped with that.
