This is Joshua practicing his glass blowing at a shop in Cabo San Lucas. We visited as part of an organized city tour and some people got to try out blowing a bubble of molten glass. The bubble at the end of the metal rod quickly cooled and then was broken, producing very thin glass shards that were discarded.

I would never call myself a car nut or car enthusiast, to be honest. A friend and I saw an advert for a car show some time back and we decided it was a good way to spend a warm Sunday afternoon. Our very first time at a vintage car show and it didn't disappoint.

 

So I have decided to start doing more things outside of my regular comfort zone. Never in a million years did I think about cars as a subject but trying something new is always Let's see how that goes. My blog post explains in a bit more detail and I've included the link to it in this caption.

 

Let's end this series on a high note. So I tried to practice my editing skills again. Like the last shot, this isn't the original image. This is another composite because I removed the background which was full of cars and people and changed the boring sky to this gorgeous blue. A lot easier than the last one because I didn't have to wonder about the windows because of the open hood. I must admit that I had so much fun with these edits and I'm planning a few new things like double exposures. Should I do more? Tell me what you think below. See if you can name that car too. ;)

 

To all of you, enjoy the weekend and have an awesome week ahead, wherever you are!

From time immemorial, the poisonous snake has been considered a symbol of medicine and remedy. But it also symbolizes the devil, seduction, evil and, of course, poison.

If you practice hard enough .. could you achieve anything?

 

Deep in the basement in this old civic building are the cells, they have an almost 'facility' feeling about them. Wonderful leisurely day with Brother Barnabus and the meeting of 'Pam' . Un Invited

As everyone was laying claim to their spots for the UP Big Boy to begin its northward journey from Poplar Bluff to St. Louis Missouri, UP MHOAS heads north out of Poplar Bluff and across the Black River. This train provided those already set up the opportunity to get a practice shot, checking exposures, focus points, and compositions before show time.

Having a practice with my first ever attempt of a panoramo.

Any thoughts are welcome.

Now that the snow has also arrived in middle of Scandinavia, the urge to get out and take pictures is even greater. Unfortunately, only gray weather so far.

Did a print test with just snow, lasted all afternoon. Either it turns out too white without structure or it turns out too gray.

Tried both Ilford Multigrad and Foma Multigrad and my feeling is that the Foma paper handles highlights better.

The picture may be too bright but I have to blame my wife, she thinks it's good :-)

This is the best with analog photography, to care about just one neg.

Outside a column enclosure of a practice arena at Olympia, Greece.

A visit to Loch of Kinnordy, a 45 minute drive from us, where the Bittern has been showing nicely recently. Not today however, so a spot of practice on the Herons there, so I'll be ready for the main event! Actually to be quite honest, I'm happy enough with Herons - love the long snaky neck. But a Bittern would be nice all the same.

Hi!

 

I decided to practice my camo pattern painting skills and thought why not make a painted naked snake fig since i'm enjoying Mgs3 so much recently.

 

Also i have ordered some new equipment from my favourite military surplus store and i'm planning to make a video showcasing some of them.

 

What do you think?

 

Thanks!

About

 

I've put a 'CANON 70-200mm f/4L USM Lens' on lay buy, so I thought I'd do some practice shots at around 70mm with my trusty kit lens!

 

I don't plan on using the new glass for landscapes, but there will be sometimes when I will, and I want to challenge myself to work within this focal length, tighter crops etc

 

- ISO 100, f9, 1/320, 70mm

- Canon 75-300 Kit lens.

- Tripod.

 

Processing

 

- Off camera.

- 'Landscape' calibration in Lightroom 2.2.

- A small 'photoshopped' bird for a bit of fun, (bird shots are taken at same location).

Cause ya know... it's the last day of September. :P
