Critique Welcome
Zoom Blur - Setup my camera on my tripod. Configured the camera for a longer shutter speed and took a number of photos. I found that I liked the profile perspective a little better than the "straight on" perspective. (www.flickr.com/gp/157755164@N06/112VZ6)

This is my view of the diorama right before I start shooting. I'm either kneeling or sitting on the ground, so I can preview how the scene will look.
Along with moving the models and accessories around, I can swivel the base to get best view in relationship with the background.
If you cover up the bottom half of this photo with your hand, the magic takes place and scene comes into focus.
I'm amazed every time it happens. Really, how is this possible?

I stood next to the window for several minutes trying to determine the height and angle at which the light would reveal the hexagons without being visually overwhelmed by the circular patterns on the crowns of the bolts. It took long enough that I worried the sunlight would completely change before I figured it out.
But I did, and then it took me another few minutes to figure out how I could get this relatively heavy object to hold still at just exactly the angle and position I needed it. I envisioned needlessly-complicated structures (requiring various equipment that I don't have) before I hit upon the idea of an open book.
I think that this setup explains itself. Enjoy if you want to try it yourself!
STROBIST INFO:
1x Canon 540EZ flashunit was used at 1/2 power, added with a Stripbox and placed behind angled translucent reflector.
Flash was fired by Cactus V6 transceiver.
The LED flashlight clamped on a lightstand on the left, was used as modeling light for focusing the camera.
"I'm" kicking back while I'm setting up for a shot. Never a fun time for "me" or Jem.
This will give you a clue what's hopefully coming in a few days. It's been a time searching for a new location to shoot in, choosing lighting, making sure shadows are working and fingers aren't poking through handbags -- all the usual of good Second Life photography. And then posing, and coordinating the poses with Jemmy. We don't have nearly enough to choose 4-8 for a good photo spread in the blog, but we're trying every possibility.

Mk2 10X microscope lens camera setup.
Using EOS to M42 adapter £5, set of M42 extension tubes £10. M42 to RMS cone £20 and a cheapish Olympus 10X plan lens £28. All new either from Ebay or Amazon.
The narrow end makes it easier to rest the lens on my hand and get a reasonable angle on a potential subject on a surface

Well, I didn't manage to show my christmas photos in time (might upload them later nonetheless), but I'd like to share a part of my winter setup.
You might recognize the table from the "Bonjour Paris" shooting. The cute little grey houses were flower pot decorations, as was the deer shaped wall decoration. The black lantern was one of my christmas crafts, I followed a youtube video which helped a lot, though it was really strange to work with cardstock and not wood.
The wall is new as well, I wanted to get something icy blue, but my first attempt was too bright and not they way I wanted it to be.
So, next try and I went with "taubenblau", which means "blue as a dove". It's a gorgeous blue with lots of grey in it, it's unusual warm...
Sellicks Beach
south australia
A couple of weekends ago I raced down to Sellicks after Charlie's bed time but was a little late to get to this spot. It requires a bit of a walk to get to the rocky section of Sellicks and most of the great light occurred well before sunset - enough time just for a rough and quickly setup composition with the 10 stopper.
