Named after Experiment 626 aka Stitch. There's enough room in the jar for about 60-65 grams of starter to bloom.
Beginnings of experimentation for my MA.
"Suspended Animation" is the working title. And it's me because I'm all I have .... at the moment.
No photoshop.
This was the second of Kristin Prather's series of Science and Math Workshops at the library. They are for Intermediate School students to learn basic math and science concepts through FUN activities and demonstrations. They will get to make rockets, search the stars, and test mind-boggling physics theories. Let's not forget playing math games!
March 15 (Science) : 3-6 PM
March 29 (Math) : 12-3 PM
April 26 (Science) : 12-3 PM
May 3 (Math) : 12-3 PM
All workshops are in the Activity Room in the Friendswood Public Library.
Here's the last of the faux film stuff for tonight. I experimented with stitching the RAW files rather than the HDR version, but it always has a crispy 'digital' look, whereas the HDR version is much closer to film.
To tonemap the HDR I've had much better luck with tonal compression than local adaptation, which is not surprising as that's mostly how film works (with a bit of local adaptation if you use a dilute developer).
This is another 28mm vertical pan, two rows of five pix @ -2, 0, 2 EV. I'm starting to think that a 35mm might be better for this particular application but I need to think about the implications first.
The workflow on this one was a bit different.... some use of shadows and highlights in PS after 'tonal compression' in Photomatix Pro.
Print size of this would be around 30" wide at grainsniffing quality.
Check out the big version to get a handle on the level of detail. The actual file is three times bigger than this, so about 10,000 px wide, with roughly the same resolution as a regular Digi SLR capture.
Pulled out the 50mm 1.8 to see if i could do some of this bokeh everyone else is doing. All i could find around the house is christmas lights to put in the background..
Info: 1 JTL versalight with barndoors camera right. Set at lowest power setting and fired via eBay triggers
On my blog, I’ve already illustrated the scant regard the locals have for health and safety.
Yesterday’s visit to a school in Orihuela as part of Culture Week gave me yet another example to show you. The evening was divided into three sessions, the first being a series of chemistry and physics experiments chosen to impress us.
The guy who was performing the experiments only took rudimentary precautions when handling potentially dangerous chemicals i.e. he wore a white coat.
He ended his demonstration with a classic ammonium dichromate volcano and invited the audience round to have a closer look.
Hello! - that stuff is poisonous and the boy at the front is straining to keep his hands off it.
...und zum 2.mal sieht das so aus, als wenn ich mit dem Friesen rumferkeln würde...vgl: www.flickr.com/photos/katharinas-bilder/100121898/
an experiment on going blind, breaking a (long) list of what I don't usually do, and testing my external flash. I had to stay on the bed to feel safe, and felt more vulnerable than I thought I would, but am sharing the results anyway.
After making quite a few panographies, I felt the need to experiment: so I shot all these images with different exposure settings, and this is What i achieved. :)

Connectivity and readymade practice : experimenting, manipulating and combining of daily life objects in order to attempt or to force a connection, at least to make it visible and possible for a further installation or project.
New media art course at Erg, Brussels.
A combined 3 shot HDR as it was impossible to expose the whole scene properly without blowing the highlights, particularly on the buildind. I'm not very fond of that technique, maybe because i don't use it very often, but in this case i had to try it. This was the best compromise i could achieve with these three shots, but perhaps i could of done better. In any case, i hope the final result will be to your liking...
This is my first go at this kind of pics. And I learned several things quite quickly: if you want it to be easier later, take a tripod - not handheld - and set the exposures to be the same every time.
Still, here it is, the first pathetic attempt. The next one'll be better, I promise.
Oh, and PLEASE drop an opinion. Whatever it is.
my first ever session at a studio, be kind
Overhead light and then painted with light from torch to fill in shadows at base of sack
a spread in my Amber art book that I did in August - was experimenting with white on white layers
here are the layers as I remember them:
1: gesso
2: collage with white papers
3: texture using fiber paste and modeling paste with stencils
4: some white and turquoise gelatos to bring out the texture
5: finishing touches with ivory Faber Castel marker, gold Sharpie and woodgrain word stickers
Such a narrow depth of field.
Santa brought me a new camera for Christmas - thanks Santa!
This series is drawn from my first shoot with her.
Macro of course. Deliberately over-exposed for effect and with very minimal processing.

In a series of experiments, we began to explore the world of oncofertility research that is taking place at Northwestern University, where they are working to develop a system that will allow women who are diagnosed with cancer to potentially preserve their fertility by performing experiments to help follicles (containing mature egg cells) to develop in vitro. In this program, we experimented with the very same substances they use in the lab and got a sneak peek into what a research physician does.
Just a technical experiment here. I set up this still life scene. With a single camera mounted on a tripod I shot 1 exposure. I then slid the lamp and the tree thing across the floor a short distance to the right. Then, without moving the camera, I shot a second exposure. In editing the pair I cropped the right edge off the image on the left (the right eye image) and then cropped an equal amount off the left edge of the image on the right (the left eye image) in order to push the background back behind the picture window. In setting up the lighting and the position of the foreground subjects I made sure that no visible shadows changed positions between the two exposures. The result is an effective illusion of 3D.
Summarizing: The foreground objects were moved. The camera was not.
