She looked up at him, lost in his gaze, his eyes pierced hers like ice. He was her master and he had control of her, for now and always.

A few days ago, I went down to Sunset Beach to take some pictures of the sunset. When I arrived at the beach, there was a sign which said "Concert Tonight". That meant was the beach would be very crowded! I wasn't sure if that was good fortune or not.
The water temperature was around 86 degrees... just fantastic! I did some swimming, showered, and thought the water was so nice and calm, I would set up my tripod in the water to try to get away from the congestion and get some sunset shots from the vantage point of the water.
As it turned out thousands of people showed up for the concert; the beach was packed! Then this couple caught my eye - they were dancing in the water to the joyous tropical music of the "Trop Rock Junkies". They were like free spirits like from the hippie era! So while standing out in the water, I turned my camera on them and took a number of pictures of them dancing. This one stood out with the bird swooping into the frame, and the boys in great position as they waded out into the water.

Taller de lightpainting que ofrecí ayer en Segorbe, con prácticas en exteriores en la Cartuja de Valldecrist de Altura. Gracias a los organizadores de la actividad: la Universitat Jaume I, dentro del programa de Imaginària - Fotografía en Primavera, así como a la Agrupación Fotográfica de Segorbe (integrado en su programa FotoMayo). Espero que os gustara la clase teórica y disfrutáseis con las prácticas en la cartuja, a pesar de la meteorología que no nos dejó explayarnos mucho en los exteriores y donde fue difícil ajustar encuadres con casi treinta cámaras... Pero lo importante es que pasamos un buen rato, probando las herramientas que nos cedió para la ocasión Herramientas LightPainting.

Lies Baas 06/04/2010 We had a class of schoolchildren today at the Exhibition. Akbar told them about Het Haags Bakkie and Photographie. I just told them to look beyond the obvious......
I’m very happy with my article in a special edition “masterclass strobist”, from the magazine Digifotopro. I won the first prize with a strobist contest (a very cool Wacom pentablet) and they asked me to write an article for this special edition. (How can I refuse ☺ ?) The article is about how I came to this image step by step.
Thanks everyone for passing by and thanks Digifotopro for the article!

With many thanks to the above.
At yesterday's masterclass with the irish/dutch photographer, I also got a small chance to shoot the master himself.
Here lit with a small Nanlite 40x60cm gridded LED panel from above - simple but effective. But a reflector in the bottom would have made wonders ... anyway, this was just a quick'n'dirty setup during the masterclass, which is highly recommendable if you get the chance.
It got some ILFORD HP5+ grain in Capture One Pro.

For the first time in weeks, I sat down and did a random sketch just for me (no challenge, or prep for my class or sketch for a a project) and ah! it was just so good! I have been playing with colour a lot lately - mixing paints to make recommendations to my class and playing with new colours thanks to the special colour masterclass I had with Jane Blundell.
I made myself a new everyday palette but I have been thinking about an expanded palette to take to BCN. It is such a colourful city and I really want to MIX LESS so my washes and pigment interaction is more exciting on the page. Been looking through my BCN books and checking out the colours of the stones and all the amazing colours of the tiles/ mosaics…wow! We are going to have fun! So… I have been thinking about adding a few colours. Ha ha!
Some of you might have seen the white palette I had at T2 yesterday - it was a Ken Bromley palette that can hold 12 full pan and 8 half pans. I just did not like it at all- so much prefer a metal palette and the angled wells didn't work so good. So I transferred my paints into my square schminke tin and will trial that. It is heavier however…sigh!
Tonight this painting felt so good because I am using new colours. I have felt in a little bit of a rut with my paint last year… so these new pigments feel like a new lease of life. Also I can't recommend more highly the ramped paint in the pan - it is working wonderfully!!!
I don't want anyone to go and buy any new paints as a result of this palette as it is a testing one but for those as nutty as me…. this is what am I exploring (all Daniel Smith these days)
- goethite instead of natural sienna. Amazing granulation
- I mixed my own grey and put it in a pan (Jane's brilliant idea) Made it of my own beloved mixture of Quin Burnt Orange and Cobalt Blue Deep. It would have been better to have been a little bluer but I am excited by how granulating and separating it is despite being mixed together in the pan.
- Testing transparent Red Oxide in place of QBO (it was a tight decision to go with BQO when I did significant testing a few years ago)
- 2 greens …shock horror! I am not against greens in my palette, though have managed to survive without any for the last year or so. Jadelite and Green Apatite are amazing greens!
- Moonglow… we will see…
- Quin Purple - just testing this out. I am thinking a half pan of imperial purple might be more useful (when I want a mixed purple)
- Ultramarine (not French) is in there along with CBD… I want to wean myself off CBD as it is series 4 $$ and a little insipid. If I mix up my grey maybe I don't need it all.
- DS Cerulean Blue Chromium PB36. Stronger than the usual PB35 version.
- Loving Transparent Pyrrol Orange and Raw Umber.
Anyway- it was lovely to be able to paint with my paints rather than just mix colour. And WOW! look at the tea in the colour- that is just plain goethite! It is stunning!
