"Card Spring Inverted"
Happy Earth Day!! In honor of nothing, today's image is of a card flourish. It is sometimes called a "card spring", and some call it a "Russian Shuffle." Whatever you call it, it makes a fun sound. I initially lit these paws with a small, hard light from the front, against a white background. Deciding it was not dramatic enough (like, Doug Henning dramatic), I went with a black background and lit from below. What sold me on the bottom lighting were the highlights and shadows on the right hind. It reminded me of the joining of hands in Michelangelo's Creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel. While I am making no comparisons, I just liked the pose of the hand. I was of course working in complete darkness. That is because if any ambient light was present, there would be a blurring around the cards. It is the strobe's job to freeze the action without any blur. While that slight blurring can be interesting, I was doing all I could to avoid it in this situation. Because I was working in the dark (and using both hands), I had to once again trigger the camera with a remote in my mouth. Needless to say, it took a few exposures before I ended up here. Once I saw this one on the LCD screen, I dropped the camera and walked away. I was going to put a cool filter on the image in post, but decided it didn't need it. Oh, I decided to flip the image 90 degrees. Just thought it was more interesting. Thanks for springing by!!

Inverted image of reflection of Lotus pods in Chinese Garden at the Huntington Library & Botanical Gardens
There's a reason why this isn't the sharpest photo I've ever taken. It was a reflection shot, in to moving water over a step stone, then inverted it.
Donna is about to start her inverted tomato project. We've been saving all sorts of large pop bottles for her. She will be following directions from this article: Inverted Indoor Gardening. The above image came from that article. These are the instructions on how to put together the pop bottle.
Handling Specialty was approached by a US-based material handling company to custom engineer and manufacture an overhead three-stage inverted belt lift with attached tooling (which rotates), that holds a part as it goes through an intensive cleaning and coating process.

On the beach below the resort on Apo Island, right in front of the dive shop, a bunch of children from the village were doing acrobatic back-flips in the sand. When they saw that I was photographing them, they offered to pose.
I showed them I could take mini-movies of their tricks, which drove them absolutely wild. You can see the insanity that resulted by clicking here.

On one side of Tatton Mere, the folks from UK Bungee were having their clients bungee jumping from the top of a 300ft crane.
As the public start to do their jump, this inverted hang looking straight down was at the peak of the rope stretching on his attempt.
Inverted Crown Sky
This subdued sunset brought to you by the soot in the air contributed by hundreds of western wildfires. Hopefully you’ve been off grid and out of the way of these plumes. Such a Pall changes not only the air quality but the amount of solar radiation that makes it to the surface.
This image is my best try to get the scene exactly as I remembered it. The wedge of smoke from various Montana fires were moving this way. The cloud front was forming in advance of the smoke pall with the smoke moving with the front. I have seen this develop before and got the heck up the hill well over an hour before sunset. I figures that as the sun dove behind that jagged bottomed cloud, that shadow would get projected in the smoke below. The result is a fan of crepuscular rays radiating outward away from the sun well above the cloud deck. This is a fairly expansive display. Taken through a very wide lens at 24mm .
This is the second nice crepuscular display I have seen from this years smoke/brown season. They are somewhat predicatable to me but to get the ducks to actually line up is an entirely different matter lol. This would be a nice candidate for a mirror/mirror ART treatment I’m thinking… I’ll have to make a note to reflect this back on itself. I bet a nice face will appear magically.

Lake Revelstoke. I tend to enjoy the kaleidoscope effect of inverting reflections. I Its still a panorama of a reflection of sky, mountains and forest in a lake but now its more. Its also a puzzle, a challenge to try to make sense of reality turned on its head; its disorienting. Its a self indulgent thing. BC has so much beauty.
