Garden Detail

The Ingham County Arts Commission and the Ingham County Fair partnered in this project which brought together professional and student artists, and community residents to conceive of the images, design and paint the mural. The "Murinal" remained a landmark at the fairgrounds for over a decade but has now been painted out.

 

South & West Views

The "Murinal" a 1981 community arts project created a mural around the four sides of a bathroom building at the Ingham County Fairgrounds. Known as "the murinal" this community artwork depicted the Mason County rural countryside of farmland and wetlands, the Mason county courthouse, and the fairgrounds.

About the Shot

Usually when I visit the zoo, the baboons are frolicking up the back of their sizeable enclosure, too far away for my 200mm to reach. This time, I arrived at the viewing window to find a huge crowd of people gathered. I waited patiently for a couple of minutes then pushed to the front to be greeted with this lovely sight. Two of the zoo's newest babies right down the front. I'm going to guess that the wee one with the grass in his mouth is Chandu. He was more confident than the other one. Within minutes the youngsters were scooped up and carried away so I got there just at the right time.

About the Baboon Babies

Edinburgh Zoo has welcomed the first of its spring arrivals in the form of three baby gelada baboons. The new additions, which are the first gelada babies to be born at the Zoo, have been named Chandu, Chibale and Chiku. Chandu, who was the first to arrive on 10 February, is the only one to be sexed so far and is a boy. Chibale, whose name means kinship, followed on 6 March and Chiku, whose name means chatter, finally arrived on 10 March. The names for the three baboons have been chosen by their keepers to reflect the Ethiopian origin of this species.

 

Gelada baboons have only been part of the animal collection since 2007 when a group of seven arrived from Rheine Zoo in Germany. In 2008 the Zoo received a male called Malachi from Colchester Zoo who is father to all three babies.

 

Gelada baboons live in the Ethiopian Highlands. They live in large troops, led by one dominant male, with younger males, females and infants of all ages making up the rest of the group. They are currently in danger of extinction due to the expansion of the local human population. Not only do they have to compete for land but they are also targeted by farmers who suspect them of crop-raiding.

 

Georgina Cook, one of the Primate Keepers at Edinburgh Zoo, said:

 

“We’re really happy that our gelada group have bred successfully as it means that they have settled in really well. The youngsters have already started exploring the enclosure on their own and we’re sure they will prove to be very popular with visitors.”

A Mais Bela Flor

O local estava deserto quando sentei-me para ler embaixo dos longos ramos de um velho carvalho. Desiludido da vida, com boas razões para chorar, pois tinha a impressão que o mundo estava tentando me afundar. E se não fosse razão suficiente para arruinar o dia, um garoto ofegante chegou perto de mim, cansado de brincar. Ele parou na minha frente, cabeça pendente, e disse cheio de alegria:

- Veja o que encontrei!

Na sua mão uma flor. E que visão lamentável! Estava murcha com muitas pétalas caídas...

Querendo ver-me livre do garoto com sua flor, fingi pálido sorriso e me virei.

Mas ao invés de recuar, ele sentou-se ao meu lado, levou a flor ao nariz e declarou com estranha surpresa:

- O cheiro é ótimo, e é bonita também... Por isso a peguei. Pegue-a, é sua!

A flor à minha frente estava morta ou morrendo. Nada de cores vibrantes como laranja, amarelo ou vermelho, mas eu sabia que tinha que pegá-la, ou ele jamais sairia de lá. Então estendi-me para pegá-la e respondi:

- Era o que eu precisava...

Mas, ao invés de colocá-la na minha mão, ele a segurou no ar sem qualquer razão.

Nessa hora notei, pela primeira vez, que o garoto era cego, e que não podia ver o que tinha nas mãos. Senti minha voz sumir. Lágrimas despontaram ao sol, enquanto lhe agradecia por escolher a melhor flor daquele jardim.

- De nada... - respondeu sorrindo.

E então voltou a brincar sem perceber o impacto que teve em meu dia.

Sentei-me e comecei a pensar como ele conseguiu enxergar um homem auto-piedoso sob um velho carvalho. Como ele sabia do meu sofrimento auto-indulgente? Talvez no seu coração ele tenha sido abençoado com a verdadeira visão.

Através dos olhos de uma criança cega, finalmente entendi que o problema não era o mundo, e sim EU! E por todos os momentos em que eu mesmo fui cego, agradeci por ver a beleza da vida e apreciar cada segundo que é só meu. Então levei aquela feia flor ao meu nariz e senti a fragrância de uma bela flor, e sorri enquanto via aquele garoto com outra flor em suas mãos prestes a mudar a vida de um insuspeito senhor de idade...

As melhores coisas da vida são vistas com o coração!

Langania village, Tantanua dance (mask dance) and the Sing-sing of the malagan people.

 

Sing-sing is a gathering of a few tribes or villages in Papua New Guinea. People arrive to show their distinct culture, dance and music. The aim of these gatherings is to peacefully share traditions. Villagers paint and decorate themselves for sing-sings.

uit:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sing-sing

 

Malagan ceremonies are the most large-scale and famous of the many events that take place within the malagan culture. They take place irregularly, and are typically large and complex events, taking several days, and requiring months or years of preparation.

While a malagan ceremony is always held in the name of one or more people who have died in recent years, it is not at all merely a mortuary rite. Many other interactions take place within the overall event, including announcements, repayment of debts, recognition of obligations, resolution of disputes, and many other customary activities.

 

Malagan carvings

Malagan carvings, now world-famous, are the wooden carvings which are created for use in malagan ceremonies. Traditionally these were burnt at the conclusion of the event; in modern times most are now retained, as the carving tradition is now only known by a few.

Dinosaurier – Giganten Argentiniens

www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSYKzm96LfU&feature=player_em...

 

Das AUSSTELLUNGSZENTRUM LOKSCHUPPEN Rosenheim präsentiert weltweit erstmalig eine umfassende Ausstellung über die großen argentinischen Dinosaurier. Im Jahr des 200. Geburtstags von Charles Darwin, dem Schöpfer der modernen Evolutionstheorie, entführen wir Sie auf eine Zeitreise in die Vergangenheit zu den vielleicht imposantesten Kreaturen, die die Evolution je hervorgebracht hat: den Dinosauriern. Sowohl die ältesten als auch die größten Dinosaurier wurden in Argentinien gefunden. Zu den Highlights der Ausstellung zählt der größte Pflanzenfresser der Welt, der rund 40 Meter lange und acht Meter hohe Argentinosaurus, der größte Fleischfresser (Giganotosaurus) und der älteste bisher gefundene Dinosaurier, der Eoraptor. Unter den Funden, die erstmals der Öffentlichkeit präsentiert werden, befindet sich auch der erst kürzlich entdeckte, im Vergleich zu anderen Raptoren-Arten riesige, Austroraptor cabazai. Einzigartige Fundstücke aus den wissenschaftlichen Sammlungen sieben argentinischer Museen erlauben eine nahezu lückenlose Darstellung der Geschichte der Dinosaurier bis zu ihrem Aussterben am Ende der Kreidezeit. Originale Fossilien werden durch komplette, detailgetreue und zum Teil lebensnahe Rekonstruktionen erweitert, heutige Landschaften Argentiniens verwandeln sich in die Landschaften, wie sie zu Zeiten der Dinosaurier vermutlich ausgesehen haben – die Giganten aus der Urzeit erwachen zu neuem Leben.

An imposing twelve-sided table

 

Estimate: PHP 1,200,000 - 1,400,000

 

First quarter, 20th century

Laguna

Narra and kamagong, kamagong inlays

83 x 224 x 224 cm (32 1/2 x 88 x 88 in)

 

Provenance:

Formerly from the family of Candelaria Moldes Santos, wife of Col. Leopoldo Santos, Philippine army and guerilla fighter during the Japanese occupation

 

Made in the Bilibid Prison which, from the early American colonial period until the end of the first half of the 20th century, manufactured high quality household and office furniture as part of its program to rehabilitate prisoners in preparation for their reintegration into mainstream society. Their outputs were arguably unrivaled in terms of craftsmanship, design and prolificity.

 

A rare 12-sided top, made of solid one-piece narra wood, framed by precious kamagong wood carved around the edges with acanthus gadrooning. To harvest wood with a girth this size - over 7 feet across when finished - the felled giant tree must be well over a hundred years old. Each conforming side of the frieze is carved with foliated scrolls centering an anthemion flower inscribed with C-volute. The heavy base is made of two crossed curule seat-shaped legs carved with foliated scrolls bordered by broad kamagong inlays, and undulate with winged rosettes, connected to a huge, turned central cylinder with flutings surmounted by scrolled arches and a finial. The lion’s paws with winged extensions embody immense strength and power.

 

Overall, the workmanship is quite remarkable, displaying great detailed carvings and decorations alluding to the Italian Neoclassical style that was popular in the early 19th century. A classic, timeless statement piece that will surely draw exclamations of surprise and admiration. Found in Santa Rosa, Laguna.

Inside, five years of no maintenance is taking its toll.

Five months ago, the lead was stolen from the roof. Carpets are saturated and moss grows on them.

 

You may have seen this place on the news if you are a West Yorkshire character. On the weekend of 14/15th Nov 2009, it was taken over by a group of community orientated squatters, and, after five years of lying derelict is having new life breathed in to it again. From the outside, this double decker Victorian school rises above the red brick back to back houses of Hyde Park, Leeds. For nearly a century it was the centre of a community, where thousands of children would have gone to school. However, a changing population, government policy and the belief that new schools are better for learning has meant it was closed, much against the wishes of the community. Now, things are changing, and changing very quickly.

A splendid Ah Tay bed with Dayap fruit motif

 

Estimate: PHP 800,000 - 850,000

 

Last Quarter, 19th century

Binondo, Manila

Narra, cane / solihiya

247 x 143 x 220 cm

(97 x 56 x 86 1/2 in)

 

Lot 451 of the Salcedo Auctions auction on 21 September 2019. Please see salcedoauctions.com for more details.

 

Famous Chinese furniture maker, Ah Tay, and his iconic calabasa bed has remained one of the most coveted pieces of furniture in our history. Though instantly recognizable because of the obvious typical design elements, the scramble for genuine examples from the scores of reproductions continue to grow due to increasing demand from serious collectors. Calabasa bed – aptly named for the heavily gadrooned halved squash shape used for bed posts – is a juxtaposition of varied styles prevalent in Europe from the 1840s to 1880s: Gothic Revival, Rococo Revival and Renaissance Revival. This bed, in particular, has all the quintessential Ah Tay traits, crafted at the highest level – something that latter pieces will never be able to duplicate – that only the master himself can accomplish. Interestingly, there is age-appropriate numbering in Chinese characters on each calabasa support that matches with the corresponding post, thereby avoid mismatching the parts during assembly – a solid proof of Chinese hands in the making this bed. The lustrous patina and the unfeignable signs of usage accumulated over a long time are tactile testaments to its authenticity.

Ah Tay loved to incorporate tropical fruits in his beds. In this example, dayap fruits in varying degree of maturity are carved as decorative motif. Dayap (citrus aurantifolia) is a small tree native to Southeast Asia. Its most popular use in the Philippines is its rind added to leche flan or creme caramel for a distinct, sharp citrusy flavor. This is no coincidence as the original owners of the bed had a dayap farm in Pulupandan town in Negros, thus the sentimental association. They can be seen in the headboard bottom support, inside lyre posts, and from the canopy’s vaulted crests dangling gracefully. In a very good and sturdy condition. Found in a house in Mandaluyong.

Thousands demonstrated on Friday in Tahrir Square, demanding public trial of Mubarak, his interior ministry Habib el-Adly, and other regime figures.

 

The square and the surrounding streets since early morning have been emptied from all police and military presence. Most of the established political forces, most notably the Muslim Brothers, did not take part in the demonstrations.

 

The families of the martyrs were present, and demanded speedy trials of the police murderers, as it's becoming clear day by day that they will get away with what they did. More shockingly, most police officers who are currently undergoing trial still hold their positions (or have been promoted)! Demonstrators also denounced the brutal police crackdown on the protests in the square on Tuesday night and Wednesday.

 

Protesters marched, in solidarity with the detainees, by 4pm on the ministerial cabinet headquarters and the interior ministry. Policemen from inside the interior ministry's compound threw rocks and were making provocative gestures with their hands. Protesters responded by rocks and a shower of insults and chants against both the military and the police.

 

I've heard very strong chants, demanding the execution of Mubarak, Adly and Field Marshal Tantawi. While some are staging a sit in at the moment, others will resume protesting on Saturday, in the run up to the mass protests planned next Friday 8 July.

More Beauty or More Danger :-)) ?

 

This shot was taken at the same photo-trip than my last post - on a warm and sunny early morning in South India, near Chennai.

 

And my friends told me, that this flower, which looks so beautiful and smells gorgeous, produces nontheless poisonous fruits and seeds, which would kill a man (and a woman as well, i guess :-)) ) in minutes (or was it even seconds?).

 

But here i just want to share this wonderful flower - to connect more with its current beauty than to connect to its danger-to-be.

 

Whoever knows the name of this flower.... i would be glad to add it here!

I don't remember where we were when I took this, but I do remember it was one of those "organic" panos. That is, I started with a vertical shot of the windswept ridge, thinking to do a 4 or 5 shot pano of just the top of the ridge. I then thought to myself that it would be cool to get Haley (who was ahead of me a ways) in the shot. So my 4 image pano became a 12 image one, and I got this.

A weed in a general sense is a plant that is considered by the user of the term to be a nuisance, and normally applied to unwanted plants in human-made settings such as gardens, lawns or agricultural areas, but also in parks, woods and other natural areas. More specifically, the term is often used to describe native or nonnative plants that grow and reproduce aggressively. Generally, a weed is a plant in an undesired place.

Manifestation à Paris le 29 Novembre 2007 contre la réforme de la carte judiciaire par Rachida Dati. L'accès à la Place Vendôme (où se trouve le Ministère de la Justice) étant complètement verrouillé, les manifestants se réunissent rue de la Paix dans une ambiance animée. Devant les camions munis de grilles anti-émeute, des barrières ont été disposées que quelques-uns franchiront, mais sans heurt particulier avec les forces de l'ordre.

La foto salió movida

 

Un cronopio va a abrir la puerta de calle, y al meter la mano en el bolsillo para sacar la llave lo que saca es una caja de fósforos, entonces este cronopio se aflige mucho y empieza a pensar que si en vez de la llave encuentra los fósforos, sería horrible que el mundo se hubiera desplazado de golpe, y a lo mejor si los fósforos estan donde la llave, puede suceder que encuentre la biiletera llena de fósforos, y la azucarera llena de dinero, y el piano lleno de azúcar, y la guía del télefono llena de música, y el ropero lleno de abonados, y la cama llena de trajes, y los floreros llenos de sábanas, y los tranvías llenos de rosas, y los campos llenos de tranvías. Así es que este cronopio se aflige horriblenrente y corre a mirarse al espejo, pero como el espejo esta algo ladeado lo que ve es el paraguero del zaguán, y sus presunciones se confirman y estalla en sollozos, cae de rodillas y junta sus manecitas no sabe para que. Los famas vecinos acuden a consolarlo, y tambien las esperanzas, pero pasan horas antes de que el cronopio salga de su desesperación y acepte una taza de té, que mira y examina mucho antes de beber, no vaya a pasar que en vez de una taza de té sea un hormiguero o un libro de Samuel Smiles.

Yeah... not the kind of shot you would expect in my photostream. But then I was virtually forced to deviate from my original drive and post this instead. The reason can be attributed to a fabulous commentary book that I am currently reading called "CAMERA LUCIDA" (English translation - Reflections on Photography, 1980) written not by a photographer but by the great French philosopher and critic ''Roland Barthes".

 

In the book, Roland goes on to share his observations on the product of art that we all know as Photograph. Well, actually he prefers calling each such photograph as the Photograph. He comes up with deft and thought-provoking definitions of the photograph, like Transparent Envelope, the Fact of Being This or That, an Infinity that Occurred only Once, and more. I was thoroughly enjoying his points of view, until I came upon the chapter that carried another definition, and it was very different. It spoke in particular of all photographs that depicted Life, in any/all forms. It said and I quote - "...as if the photographer must exert himself to the utmost to keep the photograph from becoming Death."

 

This hit me like a bolt, and left me momentarily numb. Perhaps I was not expecting it in the first place, which is why it hit me so hard. It defied all my perceptions of 'beautiful life' that my eyes had always searched for in a photograph. Until now.

 

The result of my mental unrest was this photograph that you see. As if in protest to the definition. As if crying at the sudden revelation, a new 'matter of fact' way of looking at a photograph.

 

I turn to the next paragraph...

   

p.s. This is no advert for Yamaha. Besides, I don't like bikes. This is merely a means to show what I hope you may be able to see, the invisible envelope.

View larger on black. The exposure here was 1/3sec (!) at ISO200 on my Canon Powershot camera, and I was surprised at how well it turned out. I think I was braced against a wall for stability, and managed to get a sharp background, a "dreamy" look to the portrait, and some very cool motion-blur on the hands, especially the left. It looks like there are 7 or 8 fingers on that hand... and it sounded like all of them were working at lightning speed.

Earlier this week we were at our favourite neighborhood pub, the Old Nick on the Danforth in Toronto, and it happened to be "open stage" night (if you are a Facebook member, see here), where anyone can step up and perform. It is "hit and miss"; the acts range from excellent to, um, not. On that night it was a definite "hit", and truly excellent.

 

A woman took to the stage with an instrument I had never seen before; it turned out to be a Tsugaru Shamisen (also spelled in English as Tsugaru jamisen), a traditional Japanese instrument that looks and sounds a bit like a banjo. From the moment she started playing it was clear that she was a virtuoso, and the crowd at the pub (not always attentive at these events) was mesmerized this time.

 

The player, as I later found out, was Melbourne Australia-based Noriko Tadano, who happened to be visiting Toronto for a couple of weeks. You can find out more about her, and listen to some of her music here on her MySpace site.

Ilang awit pa ba ang aawitin o giliw ko?

Ilang ulit pa ba ang uulitin o giliw ko?

Tatlong oras na akong nagpapa-cute sa 'yo

'Di mo man lang napapansin ang bagong t-shirt ko

 

Ilang isaw pa ba ang kakainin o giliw ko?

Ilang tansan pa ba ang iipunin o giliw ko?

Gagawin ko ang lahat pati ang thesis mo

Huwag mo lang ipagkait ang hinahanap ko

 

Sagutin mo lang ako aking sinta'y

Walang humapy na ligaya

 

Aasahang iibigin ka

Sa tangahali sa gabi at umaga

Huwag ka sanang magtanong at magduda

Dahil ang puso ko'y walang pangamba

Lahat tayo'y mabubuhay ng tahamik at buong

Ligaya

 

Ilang ahit pa ba ang aahitin o giliw ko?

Ilang hirit pa ba ang hihiritin o giliw ko?

'Di naman ako manyakis tulad ng iba

Pinapangako ko sa 'yo na igagalang ka

 

Sagutin mo lang ako aking sinta'y

Walang humapy na ligaya

 

Aasahang iibigin ka

Sa tangahali sa gabi at umaga

Huwag ka sanang magtanong at magduda

Dahil ang puso ko'y walang pangamba

U2- City of Blinding lights

 

The more you see the less you know

The less you find out as you go

I knew much more then than I do now

 

Neon heart day-glow eyes

A city lit by fireflies

They're advertising in the skies

For people like us

 

And I miss you when you're not around

I'm getting ready to leave the ground

 

Oh you look so beautiful tonight

In the city of blinding lights

 

Don't look before you laugh

Look ugly in a photograph

Flash bulbs purple irises

The camera can't see

 

I've seen you walk unafraid

I've seen you in the clothes you made

Can you see the beauty inside of me?

What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?

 

(cut)

 

And I miss you when you're not around

I'm getting ready to leave the ground

 

Oh you look so beautiful tonight

In the city of blinding lights

 

Time...time...time...time...time

Won't leave me as I am

But time won't take the boy out of this man

 

Oh you look so beautiful tonight

Oh you look so beautiful tonight

Oh you look so beautiful tonight

In the city of blinding lights

 

The more you know the less you feel

Some pray for others steal

Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel... luckily

The Qolsarif mosque located in Kazan Kremlin is the largest mosque in Russia and, reputedly, in Europe.

 

Originally, the mosque was built in Kazan Kremlin in the 16th century. It was named after Qolsarif who served there. Qolsharif died with his numerous students while defending Kazan from Russian forces in 1552. It is believed that the building featured minarets, both in the form of cupolas and tents. Its design was traditional for Volga Bulgaria, although elements of early Renaissance and Ottoman architecture could have been used as well. In 1552, during the storm of Kazan it was destroyed by Ivan The Terrible.

 

Tatar scholars speculate as to whether some elements of Qolsarif mosque can be seen in Saint Basil's Cathedral in Moscow (8 minarets, a central cupola, not typical for Russian architecture). Since 1996 the mosque has been rebuilt in Kazan Kremlin, although its look is decisively modern. Its inauguration on July 24, 2005 marked the beginning of celebrations dedicated to the Millennium of Kazan.

 

Several countries contributed to the fund that was set up to build Qolsharif mosque. Namely, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates. Qolsharif is considered to be one of the most important symbols of Tatar aspiration to independence and liberty. Nowadays the mosque predominantly serves as Museum of Islam. At the same time during the major Muslim celebrations thousands of people gather there to pray.

 

The Qolsharif complex was envisioned to be an important cornerstone of Kazan architectural landscape. Besides the main mosque building it includes the library, publishing house and Imam's office.

ji..ba..ro n. A Puerto Rican native peasant worker whose blood has derived from the colonial Spanish, local Indigenous, and African slave.

 

cos..mic adj. Infinitely or inconceivably extended; vast.

 

Cosmic Jibaros have redefined the Latin rock band, building from Latin and Caribbean rhythms, adding funked up guitars and accordion flourishes to achieve a sound both cross-cultural and highly danceable.

 

The emphasis is on structured songs that build to pulsing, sweaty heights, performed by skilled musicians drawing on backgrounds as diverse as: gospel (drummer Christopher Stanley); latin pop and jazz (timbale/percussionist Tony Cintron); rock (bassist Juan Carlos Vega); funk (conga player Johnny Durkin); pop-rock (keyboard player/accordionist Tony Senes); and afro-beat, soul and jazz (guitarist Darian Cunning).

 

Laced with social and political overtones, the songs are primarily in Spanish. As lead singer, charismatic front man Ricardo Reyes performs with sincerity and tremendous stage presence, pouring his emotions into the songs to make the heart beat faster.

 

The irresistible pull of traditional bomba beats, inter-played between the congas and timbales, are mixed with modern deep drum and bass and effects-laden guitar. Accented by passionate vocals, stirring lyrics and floor-shaking percussion, the beats and grooves draw audiences forward to move their hips, whatever their age or ethnicity. The seven-piece group is equally at home performing in a rock venue, a festival stage or an intimate club in Spanish Harlem club.

 

..Still grounded in rock, but with a hypnotic rhythm, partially sung in English and part in Spanish, The Cosmic Jibaros appeal to a wide audience who wants to feel, and not just hear, their music...

An 18th century grotesque ‘Dinemonyo’ altar table

 

Estimate: PHP 900,000 - 950,000

 

Manila

18th century

Wood

84 x 110 x 72 cm (33 x 43 x 28 ½ in)

 

Made of highly prized indigenous rosewood known as balayong (Afzelia rhomboidea), it has a reddish brown color that tends to darken even more with age, and has a natural luster. Very difficult to work with due to its durability and interlocking grain. The craftsmanship and condition of this table is comparable to similar tables kept in museums and top-notch private collections.

 

Called colloquially as dinemonyo table, it is one of the most elusive pieces of early Hispano-Filipino furniture, considered arguably as the pinnacle object to many serious furniture collectors and connoisseurs. An authentic example with original members, it is an extremely rare find.

 

The rectangular paneled top is enclosed by a frame with ice-plate edge to soften the edges and disguise its thickness. Below are two large drawers fitted with umbrella bosses, ornate protective key plates, and O-ring pulls. Reinforced by flanges and aprons with conforming billowing, cloud-like outlines that connect the demonyo masks on all four corners. These finely carved masks have raised fluted top hair, bulging eyes, prominent nose, mouth agape revealing some teeth and fangs, and scrolling facial hair. The cabriole legs show the delineations of a lion’s lower leg before terminating in deep, highly detailed ball and claw foot grasping a ball, resting on round-edged stretchers surmounted on ogee feet. Assembled using ancient Chinese mortise and tenon (closed and through types), as well as dovetail joints that have remained firm and strong.

This oddly-normal looking image is a false color (blue shifted) infrared image built from the red channels of the three previous images.

image #1 (no filter / red channel) --> B

image #2 (720 nm / red channel) --> G

image #3 (795 nm / red channel) --> R

 

Why does this work?

 

Sky: The sky reflects/scatters very little IR so most of the light coming from it is visible light, mostly blue of course. But there is also a small amount of visible red light coming from it. This was mapped to blue in the final image and produces a much darker sky than image #1.

 

Foliage: Leaves and glass are highly reflective in the IR spectrum. The red channel from the 720 nm image (image #2) was mapped to the green channel in the final image to produce the bright green foliage.

 

Sun: The sun behind the tree shines across the whole spectrum, however, the delay between the three shots resulted in the sun starting to peek out from behind the tree in image #3 which is mapped to the red channel. This resulted in a slightly reddish sun.

 

Clouds: Clouds are equally reflective across the spectrum, therefore they stay white in the spectrum-shifted image. The false colors seen around the clouds are the result of delay between the shots while I changed the filters. This gave time for the wind to move the clouds a bit, and therefore they are not aligned in the RGB channels.

 

It will be very interesting to see what colors are produced by this technique from different objects / materials. (water, buildings, people, etc.)

 

Also: stay tuned for IR photos using my homemade lenses.

Last night (October 28) my daughter and I went to see Pearl Jam at the Wachovia Spectrum in Philadelphia. We will go again on Friday (October 30). These are two of the final four shows ever at the Spectrum as they will be tearing it down following this. This is the first time that Pearl Jam ever played four consecutive shows at one venue. These are the 10th and 11th Pearl Jam concerts that my daughter and I have attended together as part of our father daughter Pearl Jam concert tradition that we began since we first saw them live at Jones Beach in 2000. Our seats were so bad then that we vowed to see them again with better seats and so we joined the Ten Club and have gotten amazing seats ever since.

 

I didn’t take my Canon Powershot G10 with me as the tickets state that there is a no camera policy and it is a chunkier camera than my little Nikon Coolpix 5600, so I stuck it in my pocket and they didn’t hassle me. My daughter managed to sneak in her Canon Powershot SD1100IS point and shoot, and got some amazing pictures here allfivehorizons10

Está claro que si eliges una pieza de Patricia no pasarás desapercibida, probablemente se haga la reina del look porque gambas, dedos, loros o caras de personajes tan conocidos como Frida Kahlo conforman anillos, pendientes y collares de lo más diferentes y coloridos. Está claro que para ella la vida es corta y hay que aprovecharla y atreverse con cosas así. También recibió el premio Freedom at Topshop, lo que le hizo que sus piezas estuviesen expuestas en la Flagship Store de la prestigiosa cadena británica. Y por si fuera poco también ha hecho sus pinitos en la pasarela creando una colección para la diseñadora de corsés Maya Hansen. Una carrera llena de éxitos y llena de colecciones animadas y llenas de positivismo. En la última colección llena de ojos de todos los colores sus pendientes, anillos y maxi-collares, para que no os perdáis nada cuando vais andando por la calle. Hay que tener quizás un poco de cuidado con el estilo tan marcado de los accesorios y no abusar de ello en un mismo look, siempre quedarán perfectos con prendas básicas de colores planos. Procurar no combinarlo con estampados porque se perderán ambos dibujos. ¿Qué os parecen estos accesorios?
