92/365 Water & Ink.
Wanted to try this for quite a while. Ink is from fountain pen cartridge. A few drops in the water and they slow start to diffuse.
Would like to get some oil based ink instead of water as it would not mix so quickly.
A flag with a pattern of holes to break up the light. This is a 'hard' cuclaloris, as it's made of wood. There's also a 'soft' cucalors, which is mesh.

I guess I'm gonna cheat and just pick up where I left off, and pretend that one week did not elapse between Day 142 and 143. I took on an extra volunteer job at my church and it was all I could do to crawl home and into bed each night...for five consecutive nights. It was all photo-related, but it was not me taking the pictures. Even so, I might have tried to continue shooting, but my disk got clogged up and Lightroom could not back up, and I couldn't get enough energy to delete files or get another hard drive, so... I took the week off from my 365 project.
Back again, I really would like to be able to shoot portraits outdoors, and not restrict myself to the hour before sunset. So I've been doing some research on the Sun Bounce scrim and the Lastolite skylite. I have a DIY diffuser, made out of PVC pipes and a piece of shade cloth from the garden. It worked well on a shot I took of Nate www.flickr.com/photos/37091019@N05/3851618836/ in the hour before sunset, and I wanted to see if I could get a shot close to noon. This was taken just before 3.
The first shots I tried to reflect some light back into ALex's face with a gold reflector, but the glare made him wince and frown, so that was no good, plus you don't want your son to go blind just because you want to get a good picture of him. So I backed off of the gold reflector, decided to go with backlighting, and finally just put a white reflector in front of me to try to get a catch light in his eyes.
I think I am ready to order a Lastolite skylight.
This photo breaks quite a number of rules but I like it and thought I would share it. Taken with my D70s and Sigm 10-20mm lens. I applied a small amount of diffusion to get that dreamy effect. It was taken on Darwin Stokes Hill Wharf.

A bit of a horrible photo but Dave Woolsey brought along his modified Xmas lights with homemade diffusers. These consist of small glass vials attached to the LEDs with heat shrink tubing. Each vial is half-filled with small plastic spheres that diffuse the LED light. Dave's looking for small plastic vials to make the thing a bit less fragile. Anyone got a source?
...the greenhouse.
I shot her for a project, the idea was to use some sort of diffusion on the lens. We went to a local greenhouse and just lucked out with the sun setting at the same time. I used a sheet of fabric softener over the lens and then added one of my textures as an overlay.
I really liked the glow of the sun off her skin, I didn't do any other retouching besides the texture, this is natural light. Thank you Crystal :)
