Btw: Interesting how the Wii bar gets picked up by the digital camera. The red LEDs are invisible with the bare eye.
I did kind of a lazy job on these setup shots, and wish they were better, but I wanted to post something about the setup. This is the front half of last nights water drop setup. I built a mariotte siphon out of PVC pipe, but I then quickly decided that it was not necessary. I am dropping such a small volume of water that the pressure change is not significant. If I go really long, I can just top off the reservoir to keep it at similar water level.
I have been keeping a pretty high water level/pressure. I've found that this allows me to fire shorter pulses to the solenoid valve, and improves repeatability and control of drop size.

This is a setup shot for my image: Three Wishes:

Target shot photographed with my Nikon D600 and 105mm macro lens. Setup shot done with my Nikon D90 and rented Rokinon 14mm ultrawide manual focus lens.
It was a pretty complex lighting setup, and I even included my [failed] smoke capturing rig. I lit 3 incense sticks, then covered them with the funnel and topped the funnel with an inverted beer bottle to catpure the smoke. I got bupkis.
I eventually broke down and placed an incense cone behind the bottle, but didn't get near the smoke I was hoping for.
Lit with: Nikon SB-700 off camera flash to camera left, shooting horizontally with a snoot. Opposite angle, to camera right, was my mini maglite held in place with my plamp (getting so much use out of that thing). My ring light was my third light (suspended above the subject by a closed cabinet door), pointed straight down on the bottle mouth. I used a white card to reflect some of the SB-700's light back onto the right side of the bottle.
Target specs: Nikon D600, Nikon 105mm, f/3, ISO 400, 1/320 second fast sync flash.
Setup specs: Nikon D90, Rokinon 14mm, estimated f/11, ISO 200, 10 seconds, ambient light.
Strobist Setup for this photo...
I used two Yongnuo Speedlights YN460 and one YN560 in a softbox. One YN460 with a blue gel as rim light from right and the other one with green gel at the background. I triggered with Yongnuo RF-602. Camera was on tripod.
I made the bokeh with some wine glasses on a stool. It was a very unsafe construction, so just do this when your wife isn't at home... ;-)
2013, Nov. 30 - Killeen, Texas
This image shows the setup for a few images I took of the wife & kids.
First, the 42-inch diffuser is held by the "Impact Multi-boom Light Stand and Reflector Holder", which is weighted down by two gallon-sized tea jugs filled with water.
Behind the light stand is my Manfrotto tripod fully extended, topped by the Manfrotto Magic Arm for more height. Sitting atop the Magic Arm is my DIY flash bracket, holding both the LumoPro LP160 and the Canon 420EX Speedlite, each fired via Cactus V4 wireless flash trigger.

My home setup now that the iMac has been relegated to guest duty. PowerMac G4 Quicksilver, Harman Kardon Soundsticks II, Logitech MX700 mouse & Cordless Elite Keyboard, Palm Tungsten T3
Eventual spec for this 2002 quicksilver will be Dual 1.8GHz G4 processors, 1.5GB Ram, DL Superdrive, ATI Radeon 9600 pro mac edition, 108mbps wifi, usb 2.0 / firewire 800, 1TB + storage... am getting there slowly but surely.
Don't want to get one of apples new machines as they just don't have anything in this class anymore in terms of aesthetics or expandability. Plus i've always had a soft spot for the quicksilvers
This is the setup we used to record whole body movement of animals (rats in our case) with the Gemvid system: www.jcircadianrhythms.com/content/4/1/10

Detail of the frame support. 7 positions are possible to adjust the frame. Smaller or bigger insects can be captured. 2 special precise alu bold are used so that the lasersbeams stay correct adjusted.

Setup for Eruption followed Ryan Taylor's excellent Water Figure Tutorial.
I forgot to shoot the setup at the time so I have recreated it.
Out of picture, my pc is running Multisine 1.74. Using the headphone output I have then connected my pc via the Mic input to an old stereo (at the the top of the picture) which is connected to the speaker.
The speaker was wrapped in clingfilm, and a small amount of a 50:50 cornflour (cornstarch)-water mix was placed on top.
Due to the small space, I could not get the legs of my Giottos MTL9361B tripod splayed wide enough to drop the camera in line with the top of the speaker. So I moved the centre column into the lateral position and hund the camera upside down off my Manfrotto 322RC2 ball head.
The lights on the landing and bedroom behind were turned off and at f/16 I ran a 5 second exposure. Using my wireless remote shutter I triggered the camera. During the 5 second exposure I activated a 0.2 sec pulse at a frequency of 120Hz on my pc and using a PT-04 wireless flash trigger in the other hand tried to time the flash to coincide with the sound. This took several attempts to time it right, and in actual fact the final Eruption shot is actually a blend in CS3 of two images in order to increase the drama.
The ghosting in Eruption is not an artefact of blending the two images, but due to some double triggering of the flashes when I pressed the remote trigger.
The pink/orange hues in the conflour-water mix of the final shot are, I think, attributable to the flashes bouncing off the bare plaster walls. This was not intended but presumably it would have helped to soften the light as specular highlights are not too much of a problem.
The final edit involved usual adjustments in LR3.6 to saturation, levels, sharpening etc together with burning in CS3 to darken the background which in the original shot I felt was distracting.

Old office setup. This is my setup before the arrival of the new shiny. Main reasons for upgrading were: -
a) PC needed an overhaul to get latest games to run. GFX were fine but CPU, MB and RAM needed upgrading and I wanted to add an SSD. Things is ... I hate Windows and never use the PC when I'm not gaming so spending all that money on a games machine would have been pointless.
b) ASW bought me a nice new 13" MacBook Pro recently so I was selling my own MacBook 13" Unibody and needed a personal Mac.
c) Emma has pretty much stopped using the PC because it was too much of a pain in the arse to have to swap the monitor channel (Dell 2410 touch buttons are pish) and go plug in the keyboard and mouse (which I often unhooked cos they were getting in my way). Also, I wanted a desktop machine that could be the hub for all media, documents, backups, iPod/Pad/Phone connections etc. that was easy for Emma to use.
Next up ... the shiny :)

I made little glass shelves for my display at a holiday store i participated in- picked everything up, and the glass shelves are still coming in handy...
The set up for this shot, sorry about it being fisheye, it was the only way I could fit it in.
The shoe is sat on a sheet of glass, which is over some white vinyl. Then ive got one strobe directly behind pointing up at the wall to blast that out. Then the other strobe poits strighat up. It took me some time to workout how to light the shoe it's self. I went through a lot of variations with my little softboexes, pointing down from directly above, or from each side. In the end I took off the softbox & pointed straight up to the white celling. Suddenly I had super soft shadows. I could have done with a 3rd light pointing at the front of the shoe to bring out the reflection a little more.
Photo Spec:-
Model:
Fallen Rivals
Strobist:
430ex behind the subject pointing straight up at the wall - 1/4 power, 430ex camera left pointing straight up at the celling 1/1.
Camera & Lens:
Apertur Æ’6.3, Shutter Speed 1/60, ISO 100 with a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II
Setup for all of the shots in this set with this background.
Behind the scenes lighting video here.
Dave is holding a reflector about 8-10 inches in front of a lightstand and there is a vivitar 285HV bounced into the reflector at something like 1/4 or 1/2 power. Triggered by cyber syncs. This gave us a pretty big (aka soft) light source from a small strobe!
