snooted vivitar at 1/2 power with a bunch of stacked CTO gels to get the redish color aimed at the background. Two home made soft boxes on the right and left with strobes into those at about 70-80 degrees off camera. Lumpro on the left at 1/2 or 1/4 power and sb-24 on the right at 1/8th power.
Sandia researchers Alex Tappan (left) and Rob Knepper watch the detonation of a critical thickness experiment. The experiment typically uses less explosive material than the size of one-tenth of an aspirin tablet to determine small-scale detonation properties. The bench-top experiment is so small, researchers can stand next to the firing chamber with eye and ear protection.

An experiment in Photoshop.
Combined all color channels into a monochrome and then masked it on top of the original colored version and "erased" all the parts that were red to make that color really pop out.
I think it turned out quite well. :-)

Uranyl nitrate solution was used to hydrate 15mL of DAP Plaster of Paris mix. The result showed hardly any green uranyl fluorescence, what could be seen was yellowish green. The plaster was then rehydrated using a concentrated sodium carbonate solution. The water was evaporated and the mixture was then calcined at ~150 degC for 4 hours in an oven. It was then rehydrated using a sodium carbonate solution. The plaster mix bubbled for about a half hour releasing much CO2 gas. After drying a coating of yellowish crystals formed on the surface.

Much appreciation to Gordon Czop for the uranyl nitrate.

Experimenting with different bread making techniques. Rolls on left are 1 hour rising, no proving. On right 1 1/2 hours and proving. Differences include individual kneading and rising for 30mins above oven.
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.

This is oil paint I applied with the knife. The thing looks cool with a single light from the side producing shadows. I tried to capture this with a photo, that was hard. Had to turn the flash off, that made most tries out of focus. but here is one anyway.
The idea for this is to draw a 2-D image on a 3-D object. I didn't use any tricks. I just looked at the cube from the lower-right pictures angle while I drew it.
The cube's dimensions are 1.5" x 1.5". Poplar wood with Zig Millennium pens.
I joined the I Got Wood group and am experimenting with what I'm going to send back to them. This isn't the wood they sent me, it's one I cut so I could mess it up before ruining theirs. What's tricky is, theirs is 1" square. Again, mine is 1.5".
Any way. It's kind of neat to move the block around and have it not make sense, then get it to the correct angle and, Ta-da!
As a side note, I don't have a Lincoln infatuation. He's just very distinguishable and has easy features to duplicate.
If I asked you who to draw on a cube of wood, who would you say??
Acrylic on canvas
This painting was different last year, the year before, etc. I use it to make experiments with colors, background . Now is just as you see it hanging on the wall of my dining room. Tomorrow, I don't know what I am going to do with it....
Time lapse movie from an experiment on growing icicles. Here a long finger of ice grows up from the bottom of the apparatus. As water continues to flow, the finger develops an extensive ripple pattern. The total growth time is about 10 hours.

Experimentation..
Using the previous image as a base, I tried a couple of the Photoshop filters. Using the Glowing Edges filter gave me the basic image. Enhancing the colours and contrasts brought out unseen textures and flattened the image.
For those of you who have followed my photostream, this is quite a departure from my usual postings!.
Experiment with a cherry in a glass... Very easy to do actually, but I found out it is very hard to really get an interesting shot. This is a start though, next time I will get a black background and wine glass:).
Testing out if I can make a digital photo look like old handpainted B/W or a magazine photo from the 40´s.
Model was my cousins daughter, and she hated every moment of it since we were trying to get her to eat yoghurt in a messy way. The girl is a Lady and knows her table manners.
A lighting experiment to see how much light I could paint back onto an image. This photo was taken at 1:20 AM. I purposely turned off every light in my house to make sure this was only being lit from a AAA powered keychain Maglite (which incidentally I use to get the camera to auto-focus in low light conditions), plus, of course the iPod itself.
Some minor cloning to get rid of the faint song displayed on the pod. If you look at the properties you'll see I tried to make it as tough as possible on the camera sensor. ISO 100, 6 second exposure. No color correction. White-balanced for tungsten.
The light pattern was made by the maglite itself to be bottom left of the camera hitting the table at an angle. Unless you focus the beam, there's a good circular area that doesn't get much light.
Strobist: Does a maglite count as off camera flash?

I think I've got a good system, which is just to let things happen. I had a shoot that didn't happen yesterday, so I was about to take it easy at home. Jada had a shoot around the corner from my house, and gave me a call after to see if I was free. Of course I was.
We met up, dodged some rain, went shopping for something for her to wear, then just walked in the park as the sun set slowly behind us. I have the most relaxing shoots ever, where we just enjoy what's around us, and every now and then I remember I have cameras.
There was no plan, we just figured it out until we got to the part with the pictures, and then with Polaroids lying in the grass, we just watched the sun escape as we listened to some good music from our phones.
