Thanks to Adam at Retroshift for sending along the levers and rear derailleur for my 1x10 setup. Very much appreciated. This one will definitely be at a show...

Stayed up all night, this photo was taken during the wait for the Fajr prayer.
Processed with VSCO with hb1 preset
Simple setup for darkfield lighting.
A pair of tracing paper screens with a sheet of black card between them.
A pair of 20W CFL desklamps located behind the black card, which illuminate the screens.
The vase is sat on a glass shelf suspended approx 2inches/50mm above the surface of the table and has a silver reflector under, but I dont think it contributed much, if anything.
Closer view shown below:
Setup shot for the "Kettle Collection" photo.
Lighting Info
- SB600 at 24mm and 1/1 power level in a 28-inch Westcott Apollo softbox camera-right. I shot this without the diffusion material over the front of the softbox. About 6 feet high, angled down and slightly toward the camera. It is roughly 3 feet from the subject.
- SB600 at 50mm and 1/16 power level in a collapsed 43-inch Westcott [shoot-through] umbrella camera-left. About 6-feet high, angled down and toward the subject. It is roughly 3 feet from the subject. I also put a flag on the wall-side of the flash to control the amount of light that was hitting the back wall.
- White foam core placed camera-left and about at the same level as the subject. It is actually pretty much below the collapsed umbrella, and was used mainly to throw a little light on the labels of the 3 glass jars on the left-side of the table.
- Cybersyncs
Setup shot for 149/365 On Axis Experiment.
Camera Info:
Canon 7D, Sigma DC 17-70mm 1:2.8-4 Macro HSM, Æ’/4.0, 1/100s, ISO 200
This shot was taken with a crappy iPhone 3G camera
Strobist Info:
-Canon 430EXII Camera directly on axis and behind camera, 1/16 Power, @24mm zoom, about 5.5 feet high, 3 feet away from subject inside 24 inch Photoflex softbox.
-Flash triggered with Interfit Strobies.

Nothing wildly exciting about the setup, more tried and tested. A pair of Neewer SF-01 mini slave flashes to either side, partly lighting the backdrop and some difussed light through tracing paper screens falling on the leaf.
A third Neewer located below and behind the base as main light on the backdrop.
The two to the sides fired by Blazzeo SLT-4 radio triggers, the one behind by it's optical sensor.
An additional flash was added for this setup shot as it was a bit dark with the dark blue backdrop. It has washed out the colour of the card backdrop a bit, but the reflection in the acrylic sheet used as the shooting surface gives a good indication of the colour.
My setup for hobbiest photo editing, etc.
-2 X 27" Apple Cinema Displays (2560x1440p)
-Ducky Shine 3 - Cherry MX Brown, Vortex PBT Keycaps
-Apple Magic Mouse
-E-3lue Mazer Wireless Gaming Mouse
-Steelseries Dota 2 Mousepad
- Bose Companion 3 Series II Speakers and Subwoofer
Hmmm, not sure this setup looks anything like the final image, but it would have been so dark, nobody would see anything.
Just pretend the ringflash on the camera lens is turned off :)
Not absolutely sure the 2 spoons are in exactly the same position, as I messed around with angles a lot here.
The key to the shot is the light source behind. This is provided by a diffusion screen with a pair of remote Neewer SF-01 mini slave flashes hidden behind it. These are fired away from the screen to bounce light off a white card placed approx 12inches/30cm behind. You can just make out the shadows of the flashes through the screen.
Directly behind the spoons, a sheet of black card is placed in front of the screen to prevent direct light and provide the black background.
The spoons are placed on a piece of black felt, which does a great job of soaking up stray light and preventing reflections.
What wont be obvious here, is that the surrounding area has black card around it and the room lights were turned off, to prevent any stray relections from showing up in the spoons.
May sound like a lot of work for a very minimalist image, but it's all good fun :)
The final rendition can be seen below:-
My very basic setup, or how not to do it :-) . This is sat on a small coffee table, quick and easy but not good for the knees.
The subject is sat on top of an upturned cardboard box which has the filtered background flash under it. On top of the box is a sheet of 1mm clear acrylic sheet with black card under it. Either side of the rear of the box are sheets of black foam rubber packaging material to stop the key light contaminating the background, which is an old advertising sign about 60cm/2 feet behind the coffee table.
Main light is a Canon 430EZ set at 1/16, bounced off a large sheet of white polystyrene to the right, with a white cardboard box to the left of the subject as a fill reflector.
I did say it was basic, LOL.

Time flies and summer is nearly gone, this year's back to school event has already started in several stores. We started to think about the theme almost right after last year's event. Lots of improvements were made in the whole process of planning and thanks to our stationery team's effort, each really played an important role in making this event successful.
The entire layout was planned using Google Sketchup, the first in city'super's history and I'm particularly proud of it. I started using it for this fair last year but lots of measurements were inaccurate, but this time it is near perfect! When we were standing on the aisles after 4 hours of setup, we could see the big difference and we could feel the satisfaction rush to our hearts. Layout is only one of the many critical success factors, the way our team "pour our hearts" to this really makes everything click and I can't be thankful enough for that. In the process, we all better ourselves. Almost everyone had some innovative small moves, gee I appreciate a lot! What can I do? Buy you gals lunch?
One of the backdrop was my overnight illustrator work and the result is stunning to me. It is a "personalize + stylize" your notebook section. Here you get all the components you need to create your own perfect notebook, in addition, pen holders, pen, clips, stickers, stamps, MT-tapes are all there for customers to create something unique for themselves.
6 years ago when I first became a stationery buyer, I introduced computer related products for this fair coz school was no longer paper based. Since then we had a deal with Apple Computer directly to be in the fair and offer something special no other places have. If you carry a student card or show them your teacher's identification, you will get discount and a free iPod touch when you buy a computer, in addition a few free gifts for you to choose including hubs or computer carrying cases.
I had high hope on the leaflet of this fair too, to make it like a magazine offering useful tips instead of just a product list brochure. It didn't happen as expected, but it is already one big improvement in terms of communication between various teams.
So in short, this year's back to school fair in city'super/LOG-ON, you can find Apple Computer's exclusive offer, colorful computer carrying cases, super funny and beautiful USB memory/gadgets, fashion headphones, cute portable speakers, hottest Korean stationery, Staedtler gears, personalize and stylize your notebook, newest stationery gadgets, Pilot's erasable gel pen, etc etc....... Just come over!

The studio setup for "Crimson & Gold". The only problem is that the colour of the red silk bag has gone somewhat pink.
Entry for Scavenge Challenge December: #4. Now, show us how you set up the shot (lighting, props, etc.). (Rob, #3 and #4)
Setup Description:
• For the surface, I used a piece of plexiglass placed on top of red mat board.
• An orange piece of board was used for the background.
• I left a gap between the two pieces of board to allow light to pass through from below.
• I put a flash on the floor under the table, shining up through the gap, to illuminate the background and the undersides of the shoes and the bottom of the cherry.
• Black cards were used on the sides of the shoes to eliminate unwanted reflections on the shoes.
• Finally, a white card was used on top to bounce light from the flash, onto the tops of the shoes, and the cherry.
• I got rid of the gap, and blurred the plexi surface to hide the scratches.
• A “Cross Process 2″ filter was applied in Lightroom and the photo was cropped to spec.
This is how my work setup looks like at the moment, until we change office building for a brand spanking new one :)

My setup for the preceding two pictures. It used to be on the desk, but moving to the floor (carpet on concrete) hugely reduced the amount of noise the contact mic was picking up. You can't see it, but my contact mic is sitting right underneath the cap from a gallon can of methanol.
I love the tripod I got for Christmas. Nothing like getting something really quality to make everything else you've ever used feel like toys.
Lighting setup for a photo shot described on my blog:

These are in a variety of shapes and colors. Some are actually commercially manufactured for model RRs, but most are fuzzy fabrics from the fabric shop. Sprayed in several colors for different crops. Corn fields seem to be the main type in this area-but not American style corn. These are a light brown color and look more like wheat to me.
Ceci est un de mes "setups strobist". Une bonne vielle Minolta AL (ou tout autre appareil avec un sync "M", un remote radio, et des flashcubes :-)
Strobist info : Lightrein 400ws 45 degrés à droite, réflecteur argent à 45 degrés à gauche.
This shows where the foam layers just sit on top of the table. The pieces don't have to exactly match up. Just use the tape to stick the pieces together. This is all going to be under the sheet so no one will see the mess.

A slight variation from the previous use of this setup shown yesterday.
The main difference is the light onto the background.
The Pringles tube snoot previously had a black card lining inside it, to give a tight hard edged light on the backdrop.
This was removed here allowing the light to bounce off the foil sides of the inside of the tube, giving a larger, soft edges and brighter light, which I feel more suited the shot.
Judge for yourself on the image below ;-)
I uploaded this one to show how/where I attached the fishing line (near the base of each glass). The line runs off to the right. I simply pulled it while my son hit the shutter release.
Lighting Info: Canon 580 EX II camera right on 1/2 power shot into an umbrella. SB-26 on 1/2 power camera left shot through an umbrella. Black acrylic table top and black velvet backdrop.
This is the setup photo for Super Ma.
The backdrop is made of a sheet of scrapbooking paper held in place by a clipboard. Backlighting is provided by a single incandescent flashlight aimed at the center of the sunburst pattern.
Above the scene a large circular diffuser (not shown) softens the ambient light in the room.
A simple magnifying lens (not a macro lens) is used to enhance the close-up.
I often use iPhoto to adjust levels, tweak colors, crop, etc. But his is one of the few times that I used the "Antique" effect to give the palette an old-fashioned look.
To get a closer look at the equipment I use, check out my Gear series.
Mijn thuiskantoor, met als nieuwe aanwinst: een 24" iMac. Ook de bijgeleverde Mighty Mouse maar aangesloten, die uiteraard direct Dirk achter zich aan krijgt.
Macro test setups.
Test object : KC73129MP
Number of Effective Pixels: 500(H) ´ 582(V)
Unit Pixel Size: 9.80µm(H) ´ 6.30µm(V)
This is a CCD with fine structure as a test object. The structure is uniform, perfectly straight and the dimensions are fixed. The macro magnification can be measured easily.
The 100% crops are always 600x400 pixels. Since a sensor pixel less than 10 um the resolution of the image can be properly checked.
I use a new tube-lens, the AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm 1:4G ED.
The advantage with this lens is the possibility to change the focalt length. This also changes the macro ratio. The ideal value is 200mm and this lens performs excellently. At other focalt values the quality remains very good but there are problems with the lighting in the corners. You'll practically limited to about 150mm. At 135mm you will have to adjust the angles sure if your image is in that zone. Smaller than 135mm is no longer usable, you lose too much by the dark corners. Successive images show these results.
