This soldier was well equipped, but failed still:
1) A nice boat parked in a good spot for shooting Red Bull flyers - 15000 eur
2) Sigma 500mm + decent tripod and head - 1200 eur
3) Shooting with 500mm tele using internal flash - Priceless...
Otra foto fallida. El láser me falló así que dí la foto por perdida en la mitad de su ejecución. En vez de improvisar y seguir por si acasodejé el láser con rumbo perdido dejando esas trazas escapadas. Resultó que la esfera es de las más perfectas que hice nunca, y posiblemente hubiera podido salvar la foto. Aún así, tiene algo que me gusta.
Another fail shot. My laser failed during the execution. Insted of trying to improvise, I gave up and let the laser paint those random lights. The fact is that the orb is one of the most perfect orbs I've done, and maybe I could have saved the photo. But there is something in it that makes me like it anyway.

Can you see the problem with this packaging design? Irony at its best... need one to buy one. (otherwise the design of this package is pretty, just not functionality at its best)
So, FGR today asked those of us who are failures as photographers to participate. I'm surprised I wasn't elected president of the club.
For one thing, I am in the midst of experiencing the lamest of tropical storms, Edouard. To start with, what is up with the spelling? Lame. Then Eddie took a hard right last night, and has missed Houston. This, after Jamie's office decided to close for the morning. Thus, I am working from home until the afternoon.
I went outside to showcase the failure that is Eduoard, but couldn't get the wireless trigger to work. How about turning it on? Then, when I did turn it on, it began to rain. Fail.
Might as well show the wireless at this point, eh? Weak.
At least I'm cute, right? Ha.
That's me, king of the failed photographers today.
In honor of America, these bald eagles have decided to lend a hand during the onslaught of Inauguration tweets.
Much love for the original Fail Whale design by yiyinglu
I was having a terrible day, and everything was doing wrong. A total fail day. A batch of CDs I had tried to burn failed, too, so I decided to use my 'Fail CD' for a shoot,

Don't know what happened to this pair of great horned owls. The female sat in the nest for more than a month, with no chick to show. They are no longer there.
Failure of the chain splitting part of the multitool. Happened halfway up a mountain, not the best moment, it's true.
That OJ didn't quite make it to the bottom.
Also note the tipped back bottle of coke on the bottom left.

meh...2nd failed attempt (207 stacked images)...clouds, airplanes begone...tried a different lens and different exposure settings...blah...will try again..
According to the limited information Herkimer scheduled production for single propeller commercial version of this engine in the early 1940's. Other than a few repro’s, fabricated by welding two twins together, it appears no commercial engines were actually produced or sold.
The military version sports a coaxial drive for contra rotating propellers with a dual point distributor in the back. It measures 11.5 inches long, 8 inches wide plug to plug, 5 inches high, and weighs 4 pounds- 12 ounces; it burns gas with oil mixed in for lubrication. As the war approached a few were produced for military testing but one or two either failed or were destroyed by the Army, which ended the program. This engine is believed to be the only engine, or possibly one of two original engines that survived.
Like the OK twin it has a single updraft carburetor with manifold tubes extending to each cylinder. Interesting is the tubes that make up the manifold appear to be rolled from brass sheet stock with the seams soldered.

Could've had the greatest shot if I got it, but no....LOL. Kinda disappointed that I didn't get this but, hey, sh*t happens :)
I've gotten considerably better at panning this summer, so hopefully I won't fail like this anymore in the future :P
Telia are changing their rates. To do so they must allow customers to discontinue subscriptions with short notice. The letter hits me the day 3 - with superior pricing and coverage - start selling the coveted iPhone 3Gs. Bad, bad timing...
A bottle of Lia Fail from The Inveralmond Brewery in Perth, Scotland, at Internasjonalen pub in Oslo.
According to the bottle this is a 4,7% abv Scottish Dark Beer. It poured a golden brown color with a fine white head. The aroma was of roasted malt, the mouthfeel was decent to be such a low-alcohol beer. The taste was dominated by the roasted malt with some sweetness, but the bitterness wins out in the aftertaste. Not a very complex beer but easy to drink.
Alas, my friends at WIRED have goofed on this image. Hopefully will be corrected soon : www.wired.com/story/insect-borne-diseases-have-tripled-he...
