Small LED flashlight with three modes.

Will you need flash? If not, make sure to turn it off. Unless this is what you want, obviously!

My son's at that great age when bringing a flashlight to bed and telling stories about animal shadows is pretty much the best thing ever... Tonight, tired from a very busy day, he fell asleep midway through.

I noticed this translucent sign hanging in a window and decided to use my flashlight to cast a shadow of the sign onto the wall/ceiling of the shop.

Oil floating on water in a glass dish on top of a cardboard box with a pane of glass over it. Colored tissue paper at the bottom of the box and a flashlight poked through a hole at the bottom of the box.

After a misty rain all day, I decided to take a a few late night pics of my sodden, drippy deck flowers.

I get a lot of questions on my lighting. This is a sample of one of my favorite tools. That's right a flashlight.

Which flashlight is natural? This was on a comet shoot at Trona Pinnacles.

"where's the flashlight?"

 

There have been some power outage on our place the past couple of weeks..so i had some pretty good excuse to shoot some candles lying around in our house. i really like the blue flame near the wick of candles, it has a wounderful color

GEARTALK: GOING TO INDONESIA - WHAT'S IN MY BAG.

 

I’ll be going to Indonesia in a couple of weeks, so it’s time for another “What’s in my bag” post.

 

Most of the stuff shown here is actually also part of my Every Day Carry pack (EDC). Let’s start from top left going left to right:

 

- Lowepro Card case with five SanDisk Extreme SDHC 16GB 45mb/s cards and a couple of “old” SanDisk Ultra 4GB cards

- Muji leather card case with my ID and a couple of cards that do not necessarily need to be inside my wallet

- Moleskin Reporterstyle Notebook

- couple of pens including a permanent marker for stickers and stuff

- small Muji netcase with extra batteries, lensshade and lenscap for my Fuji XE-1

- little small survival pack (in a sticky situation I probably would not have any idea how to use it though)

- eBay Noname flashlight (cheap but great LED flaashlight. Saving up for a Surefire or Fenix)

- Miltec Assault Pack (great value military style pack. Going to exchange it for a TAD Fast Litespeed pack in the future)

 

- a couple of business cards

- Jimi Wallet. Perfect slim frontpocket wallet. Protects my cards from getting bend and keeps everything organized.

- Leatherman Style CS Multitool. Nothing for the woods but in an urban environment the bottle opener, scissors and knife are essential.

- Keys

- OCZ ATV USB-Stick 4GB: This one is a great almost indestructible USB Stick. Not only does it write and read fast, but also you can actually wash it with your clothes or boil it in hot water if you like.

 

- Fuji XE-1 with 35mm. Check out the review at www.ISMONO.com/Blog

- iPhone wall charger

- Eneloop mobile booster. A small battery with two USB ports to fully charge an iPhone twice

- iPhone 5 cable

- headphone cable extension

- USB cable

- Firewire 800 to Firewire 400 adapter

- Firewire 400 to Firewire 800 adapter

- small screwdrivers

- Headphone splitter

- Flight headphone adapter. I hate using the inflight headphones.

 

- Kindle. Check out the review at www.ISMONO.com/Blog

- iPad 2 32GB. When I am working I’ll take my Macbook Pro instead. But for this trip I want to travel as light as possible.

- iPhone 5 32GB

- iPod Nano 16GB

- Urban Ears Platan headphones

 

Some things not on this photo:

- Nikon D7000 with 18-70mm and 35mm

- Rode VideoMic

- iPad Camera Connection Kit

- Lacie rugged Harddrive

 

So equipment wise that’s almost about it. This is what I will bring on my three week trip to Indonesia. I’ll probably wont use the Nikon that much. I’m on vacation and I just don’t want to bother with carrying too much of equipment.

 

So what’s in your bag? Especially for personal projects on vacation.

   

------ UPDATE ------

I got a new update of my EDC Backpack.

Sonoran Lyre Snake (Trimorphodon biscutatus lambda)

I have been on a quest to find and photograph all of Utah's reptile and amphibian subspecies for at least the last 16 years. One snake species has evaded me until now and that is the Western Lyre Snake. This very secretive snake spends almost its hole life in cracks, crevices, under rocks and in caves. It is completely nocturnal when it does decide to leave the comforts of its rocky dwellings which means searches for this snake are best conducted at night. Unlike most nocturnal snakes though these snakes don't seem to move much in Utah outside of breeding season and a little movement during monsoon season in August.

One of the main survey methods for finding nocturnal snakes is to drive roads through habitat at night when conditions are ideal for snakes to be moving in hopes of seeing one cross the road or sitting in the road thermoregulating. Unfortunately it seems that we don't have a lot of roads that these snakes have a need of crossing to get to food, water, mates or shelter as they are seldom found on the road here like they are in some other states. Other survey methods include looking for animals under rocks and in cracks and caves by day but despite lifting what must amount to thousands of pounds of rocks of various geologies over the last 16 years and looking in thousands of cracks I had not been able to find one of these snakes that way either. This leaves me with night hiking as close to the snakes habitat as possible on nights when I suspect the snakes might be moving. This past weekend seemed ideal to try night walking one of these snakes as the moon was becoming new there had been a ton of recent rain and a cold front would be forcing animals who had recently eaten to seek warmth to cook their meals.

I night hiked two different areas on Saturday and Sunday nights this past weekend. Saturday night was a blow out with only coyotes and owls heard around me as I scaled cliffs and boulders by flashlight in hopes of finding a Lyre snake. That night I got a very late start and it had been a bit cooler of a day so snake activity was not going to go too late into the night.. Sunday conditions were a little warmer and I got an earlier start but purposely didn't start till almost a couple of hours after dark. I hiked for at least 2 hours Sunday night looking in every creice and crack and scanning rock cliffs and boulders for the shapes of snakes scaling the rocks but none were seen. I was about ready to give up around 12:56 AM and had even resorted to photographing black widows which had come out of their hiding places into prominent locations in the rocks where I was poking around. I am not a spider lover so you know I am desperate or bored if I start photographing them. As I climbed down off of one very large rock outcrop and headed towards its base i spotted a small snake partially hiding under some sandstone flakes that had exfoliated off of the bigger rock face. This snake was boldly patterned with more contrast than you typically see in a Lyre snake and at first my brain did not register that it was in fact a baby Lyre snake which had probably recently shed its first skin. Baby snakes with blotchy patterns are almost always more vividly and contrastingly colored than their parents and this one was no exception. I really couldn't believe that the end of my snake species quest was laying on the ground before me. I decided to take some video of the event with my phone to capture my excitement and the snakes position as found before getting out my camera gear for a photo session. These snakes are protected and I have a limit of 30 minutes where I can photograph them and record data about them before needing to let them go. As you can imagine, I took hundreds of photos and lots of video of this brilliant snake. It was so amazing to finally see this secretive snake in the wild. I had seen some dead on roads before but those don't count. I had always wanted to find one in its habitat and was so elated that this night hike panned out.

These snakes have a fairly widespread population in Washington County Utah and southward into AZ and NV, California and New Mexico but their secretive nature makes understanding population densities in their habitat difficult. Hopefully i can continue to learn from successful finds like this and gain more understanding on how to more reliably find and document this species in Utah.
