This was an experiment I did around the time when I first got my camera with the flash and shutter speed. It's actually day time, I wanted to see if I could create a black background. Pretty close I think. See EXIF data.
Off topic, I like how it appears to grow "mini" flowers in the center
It's the nature of the experiment
It's the patterns of my temperment
It's the nature of the experiment
They're taking me in increments

This is a combination of 4 images, 1 mine the others all kindly provided though creative commons, I wanted to just experiment with a small group of textures and see what emerged, while listening to some music.

Little Strobist experiment catching water drops freezing motion with the strobes.....

I went to an exhibition of the work of Gary Fabian Miller at The Abbot Hall Art Gallery, Kendal and thought I could have a go at something arty? Each panel is from the sun in image www.flickr.com/photos/8662878@N02/2827717582 and the idea is a bit of pinch from Wassily Kandinsky.
Experiments with symbols. I like the way the head hangs in space. (a bit Fido Dido-ish I admit)

Percentage of participants within one standard deviation of the
global maximum (best solution) on each round of a problem-solving task
for which there were two versions (Mason, Jones, & Goldstone, 2005).
Groups of participants guessed numbers between 0 and 100 using Internetconnected
computers; each of the participants’ computers then showed
them the points earned by their own and others’ guesses, based upon a
hidden scoring function that had either a simple single-peaked (singlepeaked
problem space) or complex triple-peaked (triple-peaked problem
space) form. In the fully connected network, everybody could see each
other’s guesses and outcomes. In the random network, participants only
had access to a set of randomly determined neighbors. In the locally connected
network, participants were informationally connected only to their
close neighbors. The small-world network also preserved local neighborhoods
but additionally had a few distant ‘‘short-cut’’ connections that
bridged different local regions. For the one-peaked problem, the best
group performance was initially found for the fully connected network.
For the triple-peaked problem, the best performance was initially found
for the small-world network.
We decided to replicate the Mythbusters experiment of dropping five metos candies into a 2-litre of diet coke...it was a major success.
Some experiments with my new Sony Alpha 100.
Lens: Quantaray 70-300, @300mm
ISO-80 (Lo80); F5.6; 1/30s, Multipatern mettering
Thing here is... how to make this pic looks sharper, what do I need to change? Maybe using ISO-200 or maybe 400?
Here's an experiment in progress on oil spills.
The kids learned about how oil moves and slicks in water, how it coats feathers to keep birds from flying, and that it is hard to absorb without taking water with it.
I was pretty impressed with their observations, actually. And kind of amused at their suggestions for cleaning up spills. "Giant sponges!" "We need to suck it up with a floating vacuum!" "Oil-repelling enzymes!"
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
