Setup as of 1/19/09
24" iMac and 13" MacBook Pro
Full keyboard, and Magic Mouse
1 of 2 iPhones (his and hers)
Logitech Speakers
Quick snap of the setup I have here at home. Dual 19 inch samsung monitors, MS wireless keyboard and mouse, creative speakers (and sub) and my handy little Acer laptop.
The PC is a AMD 2500 Mobile Barton, overclocked and watercooled to run at 3200 speeds - been running overclocked for about 2 years now.
The fiddle yard is half stocked during Setup of the 00Fremo meeting, as the fast-running clock in the background still set to neutral postition witnesses.
My current setup at home. I have quite a bit of stuff in a very small space. The two monitors are hooked up to a workstation running Ubuntu edgy, and my laptop runs Ubuntu as well.
My setup. The only Machines that are usually not where they are in this shot are the MacBook, which is usually closed, and the DELL which moves with me constantly.

Lighting setup for previous Black Caterpillar photo. Profoto B1 AirTTL studio flash with Profoto 2x2 ft. RFI Softbox. Profoto AirRemote TTL-C radio trigger. Canon 5D Mark III with Canon 100mm Æ’2.8 macro lens. White foamcore reflector.
The objective here was not to create a fancy or dramatic lighting effect, but only to flood this jet-black and low-reflectivity subject with as much light as possible. The photo is a stack of three exposures, with stacking done in Photoshop CC 2014..
The white LED lamp is for focusing. It remains illuminated during the exposure, but it adds no discernible light to the exposure.
This photo: Canon 6D with a second, bare-headed, Profoto B1 directed at the ceiling to fill shadows and reduce contrast.

Setup for the basic shots, that made up the vast bulk of the book content. Notes should explain everything.
That bench took me and the editor 2 hours to put together, cue much swearing and skinned knuckles as we wrestled with it and various tools.
The visi vest is there as a visual aid to prevent people banging their heads on the loose end of the boom arm. It doesn't stop people banging their heads, but it means I've got a clear conscience when they do!

Post Processing:
Pretty much SOOC, but I did tweak the vignetting in Lightroom and I'm still not sure I like it. The strawberry really is that red - no enhancements there. [Edit - boosted contrast and blacks].
For such a small item, there are a lot of elements in the setup and a looks a bit of a mess, I hope this description and the notes on the photo will make some sense of it.
I will start with the base the subject is sat on. The black at the bottom is a couple of pieces of foam rubber approx 50mm/2 inches thick, just to raise the subject off my low coffee table and to bring it closer to the flash which is on a mini tripod (out of sight here). On top of the black foam, is a 12mm/1/2 inch thick sheet of expanded polystyrene, topped with a sheet of paper from my printer. The coin is then attached to the top of a clear push/map pin, the spike of which is pushed through the paper into the polystyrene. This allows the base to be moved around to get the positioning right under the camera lense.
The camera is mounted as close to vertical as possible on my cheap, or should that be bargain, Hama tripod with the central column almost fully extended. This allows it to be wound up and down to adjust the focus between lense and subject.
The camera lense is fitted with two close-up lenses fitted together, a +2 and +10 doptre to give +12.. Also worth noting is the collapseable rubber lense hood, which shields the lenses from the flash, no daisy hood here, they are rubbish for tabletop work, make nice plant pot holders though:)
Where was I, Oh yeah, opposite the camera is a tracing paper diffusion panel, partially hidden by the desk lamp used to illuminate the area for focussing. The flash, a Neewer SF-1 mini slave flash is sat behind the diffusion panel, mounted on a mini tripod and radio trigger.
To the left and right of the subject are white card reflectors to bounce light back onto the subject, a third which fitted between the stem of the tripod and the camera lense has been removed to take this shot.
I think that wraps it up, take no notice of the shutter release, it wasnt plugged in for this shot, it just seem to spend it's life hanging on my tripod :)

Aquascape. My new 240 litres MP Scubaline 120 Aquarium. With around 68 plants, Seiryu stones, ADA Aquasoil Amazonia base, CO2 pressurized injection.
A one light simple setup the SB600 is zoomed at 50mm to get enough light on subject and a sharp fall on background.
The umbrella is a cheap (5 euros) plastic one adapted to couple the stand
I like it when other people post pictures of their setup for technical shots, so I thought I'd do the same. This is what it took to take this picture.
It still has some problems. For instance, my tripod isn't steady enough- apparently it can actually keep microscopic vibrations that show up at high magnification for several seconds. In fact, the floor of my house isn't steady enough- I was just about holding my breath when I pushed my cable release. I really need a flash. Or two. Also, it seems this lens has a bad habit of blowing dust onto my camera's sensor when it telescopes in. Now I need a camera with a self-cleaning sensor, too. Maybe next month.
I got my little brother to take a pic with my D40x of me and my setup for you guys. i did have an SB-600 on my camera but i switched it to the d40x so it would trigger my other strobes. Here is my final product: www.flickr.com/photos/davidparks/3153202742/
Per Ringgo's request, here is a shot of my setup at my first photo exhibit on Sunday. I was one of the artists who participated in the Butchers Hill Studio portion of the School 33 Open Studio Tour, a two day citywide event in Baltimore. Behind my table is my good friend and talented photographer, Patty Clark. To the right is Maxine Taylor, a brilliant abstract impressionist painter and owner of the studio. With her is William White, a dear friend and my first exhibit customer! It's hard to see but I had my flickr slideshow running on my laptop the entire time. I have a lot to learn but am happy that I got feet wet. It was an awesome experience!
What to do on a snowy day? Take pictures of waterdrops. Turned out to be a lot of fun!
This is the setup that I used to create the images in this set

Since the room was to tight i had to use the umbrella on the left side leaving me with small room to make any arrangments. I put a white umbrella and not the silver to create a soft light coming from the left and avoid reflections on the mirror also had some balanced light coming from the wall in front of the clown. I also use CTO Orange gel on the flash to better balance the skin tone. PW for triggering the flash 580EX and I always use the CP-E3 for faster recycling flash as you can see on the setup image.
I was fortunate to have a awesome second shooter as my wingman for this wedding, my friend John Conway.
The setup here is pretty much my standard, so far as gear is concerned.
Hard to see in the pic, is a lightstand holding a YN 5something(owned by John), in slave mode, playing rim light. It is set to 1/4 power. The umbrella is a 60" Photek Softlighter II, without the front diffuser attached, and held up by a Avenger (knockoff) C-Stand. Inside the Softlighter is a Eli' Quadra set to roughly 1/3rd power.....about P2.7 on the display.
My 5DMk3 was @ iso400 and f/5.6......and shutter between 1/30th and 1/80th. I didn't want to kill too much of the ambient from the decoration lights in the back ground, so that explains why the slow shutter and faster iso. Also, I had about 350 shots to take, and conserving Quadra power was important, as I was on the second battery by the end.
The lens I used belonged to John, the 24-105/4L (for the Image Stabilizer), stellar lens.

I found a cool lighting diagram web app. I say I found it, I mean it is new to me. Anyways, here is the link…
The rather makeshift setup. It's strange, when viewed from further back, the Yongnuo flash on the left, appears to be providing all the light, when it is really the little Neewer SF-01 just to the right of the subject. The homemade card snoot pointing down at the card below does look a bit strange, but it works well to give a controlled beam of light and doesnt require much masking from the black backdrop, which is about a yard/meter behind the subject.

A few more notes on the pic.
Very simple setup for taking shots of bubbles in a glass jar of water against a black background.
This does show well how lighting a white background to the sides adds light to the jar. I probably should have used a bit larger sheet of black behind to give a bit more useable area within the jar, but I was in pretty tight for this so it didn't matter.
The lighting was provided by a pair of Neewer SF-01 mini slave flashes pointing backward and angled out slighty to reduce spill onto the back.
Both mounted on Blazzeo SLT4 (PT-04 TM's)radio triggers on mini tripods.
On the right can also be seen a Yongnuo SYD-0808 LED Video light used as a work light, the power of which is not enough to show in the photo, but very useful to see what I'm doing :)

Title : Access to energy services as a route out of poverty
Depuis le début des années 2000, le GERES intervient au Bénin en appui au secteur de la transformation agro-alimentaire artisanale. Au cours de ces années d’expérience, il est apparu évident que les micros et petites entreprises (MPE) rurales étaient limitées dans leur essor par un environnement défavorable : les secteurs d’activités ne sont pas structurés et la population n’a pas accès à des sources d’énergie moderne, ni aux moyens financiers et techniques (formation) permettant la modernisation des procédés.
---
Since the early 2000s, GERES has been working in Benin to support the small-scale food-processing sector. Experience over these years has made it clear that the expansion of rural very small and micro-enterprises (VSMEs) is constrained by an unfavourable environment: industrial sectors are unstructured and people do not have access to modern energy sources or the financial and technical resources (training) that would enable them to modernize processes.
