Hackness, a small village on the edge of the North Yorks Moors, captured in sunshine - a relief from the winter snow.

A little hacker is in all of us...
The idea is from a youtube video of Stephan Wiesner.
I used a 430EX above my head, and one 580EXII cam left. All in ETTL mode, triggered by YN-622C.

This past weekend, I picked up a Fuji Instax instant film camera and had a blast taking it to parties. There were a few things I've seen that attracted me to this camera. One of them was the incredibly cool instax windows shots by slightlynorth (I'm still experimenting with the concept...nothing too exciting to show yet). Another was the clever hack by the good reverend ogalthorpe to enable off-camera flash.
I sat down last night to do ogalthorpe's hack and got to the point where I needed to saw the "lens" off of the optical trigger. The saw was down in storage and I am eternally lazy, so I started thinking about other ways to hack the camera. I got the idea of trying to install an honest sync port in the thing...something I could plug a pocket wizard in to without the use of the optical trigger. I had an extra mini jack lying around from a previous project, so I started trying to take the camera apart to see if I couldn't find some place to install the thing...why not? I mean I've had the thing for over 48 hours...the novelty has surely worn off by now. ;)
Opening the Instax was a bit of a pain in the ass. I couldn't find any instructions for taking the thing apart on the Internets, so I just had to kinda wing it. I did end up breaking a tab in the process, but nothing a little super glue (or gaffer's tape) can't fix.
After I got the thing open, I was able to find the flash triggering circuit and just barely enough room to accommodate my mini-jack. I soldered an optoisolater across the points to insulate the camera from any crazy sync voltages (just to be safe) and then I drilled a hole in the bottom and installed the mini-jack.
The end result is a fully working flash sync-port on the Instax. :D
The built-in flash still works normally and you still have to cover it with some gaffer's tape if you don't want to use it in the shot. This is my first test shot last night. Exposure issues aside, you can see that both the built in flash and the speedlight I'm holding in my hand are going off. The speedlight is triggered by the pocket wizard connected to the instax.
You can see a shot of the solder points here.
I was bugged by the fully-automatic controls of the Instax. Trying out a Fuji Instax 200 with the guts and lens removed. It's fully manual : you put the film in, cover the light seals with electrical tape. To take a photo, you either cover and uncover the pinhole lens, or use the shutter from the Seagull 6x6 TLR lens. The advantage of the Seagull is that it has an adjustable aperture from f/3.5-22, with speeds from 1/300, 1/125, 1/60, 1/30, 1/15, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1" and Bulb. The pinhole [Loreo "Lens in a Cap"] has apertures of f/5.6-f/64.
The first shot was taken at f/5.6, a quick guess of exposure by flicking the tape on and off -- it was around 1:00PM, so quite bright. The second was at f/5.6, 1/2 second approximation without light meters or anything -- I just guessed, covering the lens opening with my finger.
The lens gets really sharp at f/64.
I need to find a reliable shutter cocking mechanism for the Segull lens, as I currently only use that during night time in a dark enviroment -- I have to take the lens off the body in order to cock it.

The first is blue because of daylight lighting.
The second is red because of incandescent lighting.
One of the most useful yet troublesome models out of the Dolls, Hacker was just a holder for testing the evolving abilites of Eruei's new program, which ended being way greater than expected. Able of practically invading any type of network or system if it has an access, Hacker found herself in an abandoned militar faculty after Eruei's disappearance, in which she hid from any kind of visitors. The shut-in Dollie caused a lot of trouble until Aigara being able of reach her, including damaging Slayer's brain and even hacking Mari.

Update from Elmophoto: PLEASE NOTE: As of April 22, 2015 the user agent workaround for Chrome and Firefox no longer works to display the pre-March 2014 page look. Unfortunately I don't believe there's any way to return to the pre-"new experience" look..
A real pity as I liked the old Flickr look, but thanks a lot to Lorenzo Montezemolo for giving me a year's respite before being forced to give it up. :)

I just applied this fix in Firefox. Took about 30 seconds and - for me, at least - it works fine.

This is one of my IKEA hacks. I purchased the Malm headboard shelf with roll out night stands. It is designed to be used with the Malm bed frame.I turned it the opposite of how it is designed to be used and use my own bed frame.
Although I am usually very happy with my IKEA products, I was not happy with the original design of this product. The wheels were not large enough to ensure the unit could clear the carpet making it unusable in my carpeted bedroom. To remedy the problem, I added larger casters ($20.00 US for 8 casters) to the roll out unit so it now clears the carpet.
I needed to remedy the problem of the roll-out with its added height. It would no longer fit under the headboard shelf. I chose to add 8 inch Capita legs to the headboard. This required adding a 1” x 3” solid birch piece to bottom of headboard for a solid material to screw the legs into. I used wood glue and nails to attach the birch. After drying, I attached 4 Capita legs - 3 on the bottom of the headboard, and one on the middle support section that is perpendicular to the headboard. Adding the solid birch is essential if you add legs. Screws will not hold in the Malm material because it is not dense enough and your legs will not be stable.
If you don’t want to raise the height of your headboard shelf any more than to clear the roll-out, choose the correct size of solid birch to add the needed height and your roll-in should fit fine. I added legs for my own reasons but they are not required.
One other issue with the design is that the roll-out is difficult to grab to pull out especially if there is any weight on it. I’d add handles.
Clarence Creek Falls, 45 ft. A lot of hacking and whacking through stinging nettles and over unstable ground was required in order to get down to this waterfall. Unfortunately, I did go the wrong way down, making it much tougher on myself than needed. It is a difficult waterfall to photograph. This straight on view was pretty much the only option I had.

Great discarded collection of abandoned vehicles on a large farm near Romsey, Victoria, Australia
Amongst all of the mess appears to be a Ford XW or XY wagon (top left), a HD or HR Holden (underneath), possibly a Holden ute (alongside), a mid 1940's Nash or Vanguard (right) and a selection of Holden HQ - HZ doors (front right).
Many thanks to 'Couldn't Call It Unexpected' and '54 Ford Customline' for their help trying to identify these vehicles and associated parts.
Here are some of my favourite Flickr "hacks" (they're toys really) that make photopages work much better. Hover your mouse over the image to see the notes and links (bold text) to the hacks. To use most of them you must first install the Firefox browser (click here) and then GreaseMonkey (click here). There's a group dedicated to them here. I add new hacks all the time, check below for details. Also, if any of you are budding Admins or moderators I have a group that might interest you called Admin Help that, amongst other things explains how to use hacks to run a group.
Evoking the foggy atmosphere for a wintry evening and the yellow light created by the gas-fired lamps, Return from the Matinée, Piccadilly Circus belongs to a group of paintings, three of which were exhibited at the Royal Academy that year. In a re-run of the RA show, The Studio called them “three remarkable tone and colour studies of London at night.” Hacker (1858 - 1919) was well established by the time he produced these works. He had trained at the Royal Academy schools for four years, prior to a period of study at Bonnat’s atelier in Paris and further travels on the continent. He commenced exhibiting at the Royal Academy in 1878 Romantic and Symbolist-inspired compositions and he was also much sought after as a society portraitist. Hacker was invited to exhibit at the first NEAC show of 1886, was elected as an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1894 and became a full Academician in 1910.

The police were fairly helpful. They told me Sionis Industries was owned by a man named Roman Sionis, a very powerful business man from where they were from.
He also lead a double life, as a criminal named Black Mask.
They'd also given me a list of his contacts. One was called Queen. Oliver Queen.
I recognised the name, but I had no clue why.
And then it struck me.
Queen Industries.
They were just round the corner.
Time to do some investigating...
I'd hacked into Ollie's computer in his office to see what he knew about Black Mask.
He had a bit of info, his background, allies and all that stuff.
Then I found his location.
He was hiding out in some nearby slums, but if I was to attack him, I'd need to blend in.
How did Queen have so much info?
Anyway, it's time to do some shopping.

Bruce Banner/Hulk moves from #98 to take #99 Queen Industries from Winter Soldier/Black Adam
She is tired of hiding from the Turing Police choppers.
Standing outside the Evil Giga Shaft Corporation (GSC), she have hacked the buildings security, still to 'do a HAL' on the their mainframe is not gonna be a stroll in the park.
Looking up at the tiny moon, its cold appearance seems to somehow to give her strength...
As she crosses the street towards her destiny she walk the way she talk it, like every bad-ass hero she know, Bruce Lee, Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, Sigourney Weaver and Molly... Watching all that pirate bay old movie download is about to be put in good use to give black hat security dudes a bad day at work!
Last paragraph is of course loosely from the great author William Gibson's novel Neuromancer, particular the last name of bad-ass heroes...
Wear a sweater around your waist, sew it to fit, cut it really short and re-attach the trim, turn the sleeves inside out: voila, pockets! I have been watching a lot of Project Runway recently.
Edit: This just made the Craft magazine blog! Thanks!
