I got the idea of moving the camera up while taking the picture from hoodwinks: www.flickr.com/photos/hoodwinks1/2471140822/
Since I liked his, I thought I would give it a try.
Some experiments with the Hasselblad H3D II 39 (very fun)
Self Portrait of Adam Flikkema the scientist.
I picked up a 3-drawer McCobb chest and base recently, and started playing around with the short 2' base - I put a cabinet on it, and then put it in this spot, where a small pedestal with a studio ceramic piece sat before. Now the chest of drawers is sitting on the floor in the bedroom, and I wonder if this combo works here? Kind of interrupts the entry to the living room... but kinda cool, too. (we're having a reception next weekend, prompting all this re-arranging)
Watercolor sketch quickly done on a small scrap of paper. I was attempting to render the glow from a candle. I was painting mostly wet into wet and kind of like the way the water and pigments flowed to create this image.

This is my "Experiment in LEGO". This was done in Lego Digital Designer (LDD) in the LDD Extended mode. Each of the colors is from the color chart in the sequence presented in the LDD program. The LXF file is included if you are interested. The render was done with POV-Ray. The back screen is made of 8x16 tiles in Metalized Silver. What is missing from the colors is the Metalized Gold, it seems C3PO took off with it! Also missing is the last 4 Legacy colors, I was lazy, wanted to keep it just to four rows.

4 x 5 inches on gessoed illustration board. I'm just playing around with gouache this afternoon. Too much a sissy to go out and paint on location, I worked from one of my old photos for reference...which brings me round to one of two quibbles: Painting from a photo leaves me a little cold; my colors feel too beholden to the photo, so shadows tend to be lifeless and dead. ...bringing me to quibble number two: black. Damn it all, I NEVER use black, and here's the reason why - it overwhelms everything else. I'd much rather build up shadows from mixtures of my primaries + green. I need to check and see if Holbein or WN makes a Perylene Green in gouache... it's my favorite mixer in watercolor.

One of many men helping us switch out flooring, move into the house, out of the Alaska house. Some expressed their dissatisfaction with my camera with awkward gestures. This chap did not.
But he did not pose. I just kept clicking. Moving is such fun.

Thanks for looking as I experiment. Hid this during a bit of anxiety; thanks again for the encouraging comments.
My resolution in SL has been rather weird lately... I must have messed with some settings somehow... But i've been playing with SL lights a lil and just figuring things out.
I'm so used to operating on low settings that it's a whole new world doing lights and stuff :3 fun though!
This is a solarized version of another photo.
Sorry I have not been around a lot. After the accident it was hard to go out and shoot anything as I could not walk very far and I was too cranky to get a good perspective. Also we are getting ready for our first craft fair next Sunday and I have been matting photos and hand making cards and bookmarks....wish us luck.
I've been up all night trying to get some work done, and thought I'd take a break by playing around with some photos in GIMP. Due to lack of sleep, my judgement is a little impaired and I thought I'd try two things I told myself I'd never do.
This is number 2: add text (let alone poetry) to an image. I remembered this poem when I was looking at my contact sheet and just couldn't resist. You can tell I wasn't really committed to the idea because the text is so small, you probably won't be able to read it unless you view it large. Do you think this works, or is it just lame?
btw the poem is:
春雨や傘さして見る絵草紙屋
正岡子規
which translates roughly to:
spring rain,
browsing under an umbrella
at the book stall
