One cool Croatian song.
P.s. In this photo session I wet my shoes, pants, flashlights and I loose one flashlight but good thing is that I didn't brake neck jumping on this stones シ.

Light painted with LED flashlight (Proto Machines LED 8).
(There's a metal support stancion that I Photoshop'd out.)
This abandoned building on an abandoned farm was a photographic studio for the farm woman. On a pitch black night, I took my camera and a flash light to make an attempt of created a flashlight photograph. Not completely successful, but a lot of fun and somewhat interesting.
Took out the batteries and backlit the led end, I liked the reflections up the sides of the barrel.
Happy Macro Monday !
The flashlight, we explained to the campers
Is so captivating because it brings light
To dark places
Combining the positive
And negative within, you can
Bring enlightenment to the world
One circle of clarity
At a time, illuminate your
Path, or that of another
Step by
Step
Trying the "paint-with-flashlight" technique for the long exposure challenge this week. Not original, but fun anyway. 30 second exposure.
This flashlight + Milky Way shot from Sunday is kind of a gimmick, but I'm unapologetic about it here because that leaning tree is interesting.

So when I was doing this stacking session there was, somehow in the back of my mind, the idea of (hopefully) producing a really fancy monochrome version of this 'flowerful happening'.
I will follow up with color photos of this and/or other stacks, I first need to develop, because it's just too beautiful not to.
It turned out to be a bit of a challenge, because the blossom and cactus body / stem almost demaned a different development; when I got the flower right, the cactus was bland and fading, when I developed for the cactus, the details and shadows or highlights of the intricate flower would get lost.
Also, this is a beam of natural light from the side (I managed to engineer with curtains) that illuminates the flower and half of the cactus, but not much else. So it's fair to say that there was quite a bit of tweaking involved!
For macro standards, this is a rather large scene (the flower is almost 10cm in diameter), so I used the focus of the lens instead of my rail, which is as precise as anything else cause the 55mm Micro-NIKKOR is geared wonderfully.
I'd bet, at least in principle, this composition would look interesting in IR as well, cause I noticed that most cacti and sukkulents reflect infrared light strongly, so they get very bright and radiant.
This is also kind of a now-or-never situation, because the flower lasts for only a day or so, then the show is over. Once open, it stays open until it's withered away. Very ephemeral and precious. When it's about time, I regularly check my plants in order to not miss it. Should a flower open at night, it's always a very special atmosphere to see this almost wasteful beauty in the beam of a flashlight, surrounded by darkness, like a secret. It has a lovely fragrance too. During the day, insects are usually all over them, but that's what they are for, right?
(Also, please forgive me, I don't live in the desert or naturally hot and dry climate, so flowering cacti are still pretty sweet for me..)
Anyway, I hope you like it and that the fleeting beauty of this delicate flower comes across a little bit. Have a nice weekend..

I fell off the pear into the water, held my cam under water and sprained my feet, and then, with blood on my leg and a all wet Nikon, i took this picture. It was worth all that if you ask me. What do you think? Have you ever bled for a good shot?
Early sixties Chrysler Newport convertible, one more space-wreck, crash landed at Big M Auto Salvage in February 2020. A minute-thirty-four in total darkness, with purple and red from outside and warm white diffused inside for ambiance. Protomachine flashlight, hand-held, single frame.
Was groping around in the dark last evening carrying a flashlight with dying batteries. I could still see, but my vision was reduced to a narrow cone of light. An apt metaphor for the low sun angle of December in the northern hemisphere. The diminution of sunlight gives a similar effect. I can still see, but the shadowy light changes the way I see things. The effect is even more pronounced on partly cloudy days when sun and shadow become intertwined. Foreground objects are revealed with greater clarity than those in the distance. And depth is enhanced by the oblique rays of sunlight as the sun remains very low in the sky, even at midday. The virtual absence of snow this winter has created a third dimension to this shadow play: the interplay of cool and warm light, normally lost in the snowpack, but revealed here as the afternoon sun casts a golden glow over dormant grass and tree limbs under a backdrop of brooding clouds. Even now, the sun is beginning to regain its rightful place in the sky. Until it gets there, I suppose it's time for some new batteries for my flashlight.
I was at Lake Cliché (Kleifarvatn, a.k.a. Klisjuvatn) last night with two friends of mine. It was the first clear night sky opportunity we got in a few weeks so we went out with absolutely no hesitation and high hopes of aurora. The weather was wonderful and we got a constant showing of auroras for most of the night but unfortunately nothing particularly spectacular. I had to try out my new 225 lumen Led Lenser M7T led flashlight so I challenged my friend OliHar for a duel.

My first Milky Way photograph was taken at Lawrencetown Beach, Nova Scotia, Canada. A flashlight was used to "light paint" the foreground. It was taken with a single exposure and processed in Lightroom. Any constructive feedback would be appreciated.
This shot was a really fun one. I ran around my yard waving flashlights and got these really cool trails. Hopefully I didn't wake anyone up!

Part 2 in a little playing with light series.

This week has been absolutely glorious! I went to see my boyfriend, I got to see the town I'm going to be moving to (which was so much fun!). Plus lots of watching Freaks and Geeks..
Oh and thanks to my sister for shaking her flashlight around for me to get the light!
