Experimenting with creating vintage rail posters that were created over 50 years ago. A shot taken with my compact and processed in Photoshop
Not sure if quite got the style but maybe will progress this if I people take to it.
This is the sort of thing I am trying to replicate: www.travelpostersonline.com/inverness-lmslner--railway-tr...
I know this one doesn't look quite vintage if anyone knows the Forth Rail Bridge as it has these white covers on it, but you get the idea
I just want to process this shot following a vintage nostaligic mood. I've tryed to ricreate something i lived in the seventies when I was a little girl. I have some doubt about the results, but this is my best for now.
A concrete pump operator finished work here at this location and begins folding down to relocate. This construction site is part of highway Interstate 69 In Rosenberg, Texas, near Houston. In support of America’s international trade routs, when finished, the highway will stretch border to border across America and connect Mexico to Canada. The project will take decades to finish.
done by me and hirayama-san
not happy with this one. the aperture is way off. the stencil in the center bottom also did not work out as a result of the aperture and shit kicked stencil box.
Connectivity and readymade.
Experimenting, manipulating and combining daily life objects in order to attempt, to force or to mystify a workable connection between them, at least to make it visible and/or possible. This exercise is to be considered as a warm-up, a first step towards a further installation or project.

i am experimenting with a certain style of sbl mouth, after i fell in love with a YJ custom,....well, it isn't exactly what i wanted, though i am more or less happy with the results.
Still deciding about this girl's future (initially, my own sbl)
While thinking about lenses, I'm playing with old ones. I think next time, I'll pull out the tripod and think a little more about what I'm doing.
Moody Experiment.
Some photos from a place you might already recognize, as there're many photos of it here. This time I tried to make something different out of the familiar views. After all, this is a landscape that probably is not scenic this time of the year. At least not for me, not in the usual sense. But of course there's a certain mood -- which might be something that comes out of myself, but I'm sure not without some stimulus, outside, it is really there, somehow. Can it be pictured? Can it be conveyed? How can you depict the actual first impression?
On a technical note: All done with old 50mm f/1.7 lens, all wide open, I used a Kenko nostaltone blue for diffusion and color shift. „Enhanced" in LR & PS.
Detail of ArnoFlash module with LED Module type 1. Status april 2015.
One 123 Lithium Battery or its rechargeable equivalent has sufficient capacity for more as 1000 flashes ... There is no ON / OFF switch because the PIC goes in sleep mode after every load cycle. Only the first Flash cycle after a long period of inactivity must be skipped.
Experiment: cropping photos in a triangle, with a duotone which in my opinion matches the setting and composition of the photo.
For my next step in this experiment I'd like to make prints, cut out the triangle, and glue them to foamboard.

Uranyl nitrate and sodium chloride from a previous experiment was dissolved in water. Approx. 6mL of this solution was added to ~5mL of dry sodium metasilicate along with water in a small watch glass. This was rehydrated every few days for about two weeks as the sodium silicate would crystallize and then dissolve again. At the end of the two weeks it was dried under a small electric light bulb resulting in a clear glassy substance with a tinge of green color. On the surface formed large crystalline layer. Before the substance dried it was not very fluorescent. After drying and crystallizing, it became very fluorescent yellow-green under all UV wavelengths.
Because of the crystalline nature of the substance, I don't think I succeeded in creating hyalite opal which is amorphous and not crystalline.

Much appreciation to Gordon Czop for the uranyl nitrate.

I’ve got the gray hair to go with the Red Hat Society’s red and purple. Do I look convincing as a Red Hatter?

This experiment was an attempt to recreate the fluorescence of chromium activated corundum (aka 'ruby'). Aluminum hydroxide was mixed with 1-4 drops of Cr(III) oxide in a basic solution. This was placed on a small amount of aluminum sulfate in an aluminum foil container and a bit of water was added.
The sample was then heated, first with a propane torch until the water was removed and then with a MAPP gas torch until the aluminum sulfate expanded into foam, trapping the aluminum hydroxide which was calcined into aluminum oxide by the torch's flame. (at least that was the plan)
Shown also is a natural ruby from Mysore, India.
