Linnahall. Tallinn City Hall
(mostly abandoned). Some episodes of Christopher Nolan's film Tenet were taken here.
I had a play with some interior shots today after reading about a neat method of mimicking a huge softbox outside the car windows.
This was shot after dark, using two speedlight flashes - one 430 EX II pointing in horizontally from the passenger side window at full power, the other at the front of the car pointing in though the windscreen at over 2.5 - 3m high pointing downwards towards the dash - this was a 530 EX II. I shot at 0.8 second to allow the dials to glow (the colour wasn't picked up at all at 200th sec)
Getting the composition right was difficult as I had to use a UWA, but didn't want to distort the perspective too much but had no option but to go for something like 11mm focal length. In photoshop, I cloned out the apillar on the right to give a feeling of space - you don't miss it.
I used f6.3 but now seeing the shots on screen, that wasn't enough to maintain sharpness throughout, so next time I'll shoot at maybe f8-f11, and bump up the iso a touch to compensate as my flashes were at full power. Maybe I'll borrow some more to help this to keep the iso low.
I may re-edit this shot as the background isn't 100%, and I think it would be good to get a reflection on the windscreen - a bit of a giveway.
I'll try some alternative shots over the next couple of weeks - the Audi A2 has a really neat rear seat system, so will try some 'explanatory shots' as if they were for a brochure.
Keepsake Mill
Over the borders, a sin without pardon,
Breaking the branches and crawling below,
Out through the breach in the wall of the garden,
Down by the banks of the river we go.
Here is a mill with the humming of thunder,
Here is the weir with the wonder of foam,
Here is the sluice with the race running under--
Marvellous places, though handy to home!
Sounds of the village grow stiller and stiller,
Stiller the note of the birds on the hill;
Dusty and dim are the eyes of the miller,
Deaf are his ears with the moil of the mill.
Years may go by, and the wheel in the river
Wheel as it wheels for us, children, to-day,
Wheel and keep roaring and foaming for ever
Long after all of the boys are away.
Home for the Indies and home from the ocean,
Heroes and soldiers we all will come home;
Still we shall find the old mill wheel in motion,
Turning and churning that river to foam.
You with the bean that I gave when we quarrelled,
I with your marble of Saturday last,
Honoured and old and all gaily apparelled,
Here we shall meet and remember the past.
Robert Louis Stevenson
An empty interior photo of the Chicago Theatre that I took while on a backstage tour today. So much history and impressive architecture originally built in 1921.
Day 342/365
The priory was founded in 1190 by William Marshal, created 1st Earl of Pembroke, intended for a community of the Augustinian Canons regular and was dedicated to Saint Mary the Virgin and Saint Michael.
To support the new house, William granted it the whole fief of the district of Cartmel. It was first colonised by a prior and twelve canons sent from Bradenstoke Priory in Wiltshire.
Para Gaudí un elemento clave en su forma de concebir la estructura era el arco parabólico o catenario, también llamado funicular de fuerzas, que utilizó como elemento más adecuado para soportar las presiones. Mediante la simulación de distintos polifuniculares experimentales determinó la forma óptima de la estructura para soportar las presiones de los arcos y las bóvedas, primero en la cripta de la Colonia Güell y después en la Sagrada Familia. Desarrolló un modelo a escala de cordeles entretejidos de los que suspendían pequeños sacos de perdigones que simulaban los pesos; así determinaba el funicular de fuerzas y la forma de la estructura. Por tanto, a partir del estado de cargas, simulados con los saquitos de perdigones, determinó experimentalmente la forma idónea de la estructura —que él llamó «estereostática»—, que reproducía la estructura óptima para trabajar a tracción y que, invirtiéndola, se obtenía la estructura idónea para trabajar a compresión.
Gaudí concibió el interior de la Sagrada Familia como si fuese la estructura de un bosque, con un conjunto de columnas arborescentes divididas en diversas ramas para sustentar una estructura de bóvedas de hiperboloides entrelazados. Las columnas las inclinó para recibir mejor las presiones perpendiculares a su sección; además, les dio forma helicoidal de doble giro (dextrógiro y levógiro), como en las ramas y troncos de los árboles. Por el conjunto de elementos aplicados en las columnas —inclinación, forma helicoidal, ramificación en varias columnas más pequeñas— consiguió una sencilla forma de soportar el peso de las bóvedas sin necesidad de contrafuertes exteriores.

Interior of one of the common rooms for the use of guests at the Terrapuri Heritage Village in Terengganu, Malaysia. The owner's collection of Malay cultural artefacts are displayed in these rooms. Note the cradle on the front left where magazines are placed now. In the past, people would just sit on floor mats, there were no lounge sets or chairs.
