A train ride with the Intercity Direct to Rotterdam. Tunnel vision.
Treinreis met de NS Intercity Direct naar Rotterdam. Tunnelvisie.
Was trying to do a very specific idea that i realized quickly wasn't going to work. This was one of the first test shots for exposure and whatnot
I was tagged AGES ago, so here we go:
1. I'm 50% Swedish
2. I live in Singapore but I come home to St. Louis every summer (where I am now)
3. There is nothing more disgusting than biting wood.
4. I want a dog so so so so bad, preferably one like the puppy in the cottonelle commercial :)
5. I'm in love with my Nikon D5000
6. My theory is that anyone can be a photographer if they can afford a nice enough camera, but you can't be a photo-artist without the creativity of a a true artist
7. I played touch-rugby with flickr celebrity rachael hyde in school 1st semester of last year
8. I've met the Black Eyed Peas and Taylor Momsen
9. I have a blog that I work really hard on so you should
10. I'm addicted to music and chai tea lattes (click the link to find out more)

This was a cooking experiment as a result of something I heard on the radio. The speaker said he liked to eat fresh tomatoes on pasta. His method was to slice and dice one or more ripe tomatoes, place them into a bowl, sprinkle a little sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, grate a bit of Parmesan cheese, and add some olive oil and maybe a thin slice of sweet onion. Serve the uncooked tomatoes over some pasta like spaghetti.
The onion I used the first time was a small boiling onion that I like to use for small dishes. I diced it up fine and mixed it raw in with the tomato. The only problem was that I burped onion for several hours afterward. Next time I sauteed the onion along with a sliced zucchini, and that went very well with the tomatoes. Shown here is a small piece of grilled salmon left over from the huge pieces that Leslie Anne got for our Hurricane Irma party. More about that later. Since the salmon was already cooked, I just zapped it in the microwave for a minute to warm it up. I ate a bite or two, then flaked it with my fork and mixed it with the tomatoes over my pasta. Even though I only cooked half of a one pound package of spaghetti, I had twice as much pasta for a normal meal, so I saved it. A few days later, I revived the pasta with some melted butter before warming it up in the microwave oven and topping it with tomatoes and the sauteed onion and zucchini.
So now I have a new, proven quickie meal: fresh tomatoes (plus other stuff) over spaghetti that is a lot faster than cooking up a big sauce in which I always include everything in the kitchen.

The experimentation with fusing continues..... should have left the kiln on slightly longer ...
Jerry for Julia Kay's Portrait Party!
i have blogged about this & my other fused glass portrait experiments here:
Quick experiment with backdrops made from patterned paper glued to foam core boards. I have some little plastic bits I need to set up to keep the walls together, but I did this quick shot of a figure in the "room" to see how it would look.
Also need to figure out a better floor.
FOV: 5" wide.

The Challenge "Romance".
Tried throwing a red silk dress up in the air and snapping a pic.
This pic works as a desktop wallpaper, but nothing more....
Ich hab das Bild nochmals überarbeitet, den Hintergrund ein wenig Unschärfer gemacht. Dem Schwan ein wenig mehr Struktur und Schärfe. Ein wenig das Blau aus dem Weiß des Schwanes gedämpft und ganz leichte Strahlen hinzu gefügt.
Digital experiment at Sydney University. Digital multiple exposure with Red & Green Hoya Pop Colour Filters.
The man-made elegant pots are sophisticated handicrafts of Hala, Sindh. These are developed from raw clay, simply mixing the water and clay which is placed on grinding wheel -the whirl and the touch gives faces to the SOIL...
I experimented with this look last year and liked it, so I got another pair earlier this year and they made their debut today.
This was done with a white paper drop behind the water jar thing. I aimed a flash directly at that and then had snooted flashes at 45s aimed at the orange cube.

reminds me a dark old oil on canvas from XVII-XVIII century. I don't really like the manner, but could be interesting as an experiment (AC DSee 7.0)
