come on in and pull up a cushion and we'll watch the lava lamp for awhile!
Seen at FLOWER POWER, The Philadelphia Flower Show 2019
When I was young, I wanted a lava lamp.
There is something so wonderfully soothing about watching the changing orbs bubble and slide past each other. In my mind, I hear this voice that the lava might have. It's somewhere between James Earl Jones and Tommy Chong. Just laid back and resonant.
It would probably say things like, "Laaaaaaaamp....I am your Laaaaaaaavaaaaaaaa....Coooooool"
I think I might need to go take a nap now...
Today's Daily Shoot assignment: Take care of the Monday blues by picking up your camera. Make a photograph dominated by the color blue.
Made these for one of my husband's co-workers. I used a stencil to try to recreate the image on the original Woodstock posters. The Groovy cookies didnt come out so great, and again this was a stencil as I didnt think i could pull of the font very well and consistently. Overall I liked how the tie-dye came out and the added sanding sugar on the peace signs help them pop a bit more.
Taken with Minolta XG1, MD 50mm f1.2 lens, Kodak Tri-X 400 film and a tripod. Exposure about 1 second.
Stand developed 1hour, with inversions every 20 minutes. 1:100 R09 developer. Fixed with 1:4 Ilford rapid fixer.
Scanned with Epson v370. No post processing.
I finally got a Lava Lamp picture I like. They've never photographed well for me. These are two in my collection of six.
An almost peculiarly colorful bit of sunset yesterday afternoon up near the Canada / Alaska border. The sky had a very liquid appearance, as if I suddenly had found myself inside a LavaLamp looking out. The colors reminded me of one of those bright Yellow Submarine style Peter Max illustrations of the 1960s.
Added some new soap to my soap dispenser and the next day it had gone all lava lampy. This needed to be documented.
Our Daily Challenge - Light
I really didn't have anything creative that crossed my mind about today's topic, so I went all retro on ya. This is my lava lamp. Yes I have one, and I love it. I actually begged for it for my birthday a few years ago. I'd love to have about 6 or 7 to be honest. We're probably going to be making a studio / office this weekend and they would be a great addition.
On a side note, I did make my first vid and uploaded it. Nothing special, but I do intend on making some more and throwing them up. The T1i takes decent videos if you can hold it perfectly still.
