Me and Damon after awhile went for a walk, well he was skating, it was mostly sunny but the wind was horrible. He wanted me to get a photo of him skating away and this was my favorite picture of the bunch, it was his too or another one which was very similar.

This is Kristal's latest model, a cute little penguin skating on an iceberg.

This might be a tributary to Skate Creek. The road goes off to the right from the main Skate Creek road. It's a 5 shot HDR in Photomatix. Go ahead and smack me if you are a purist or give it a try.... fun! Five shots one stop apart showed as containing the highlights and shadows on the histogram. Honest.

I've had this scene in mind for my Living Large miniature series ever since I discovered these 1/64-scale ice skaters on the internet. The classic cocktail known as an "Old Fashioned" is typically served in a rocks glass with the bourbon poured over one or two large ice cubes. The problem for creating this scene was that there was no way I would be able to stick the skaters to the surface of a real ice cube, and I did not want to photoshop them into the scene after having photographed them on a tabletop or whatever.
I'll just buy a fake ice cube, I thought. I went on the internet a searched for a 2" (the size I wanted) plastic ice cube, and found one. For 250 dollars! Yeah, nope, pass!
So I made my own. I followed a procedure I found on the internet, which involved melting down some clear plastic crafting beads in a rectangular form I made with aluminum foil wrapped around a small aspirin box. Then you remove the box and fill the rectangular foil "container" with the plastic beads. Thirty-five minutes in the oven at 450 degrees and -- voila! -- a very realistic looking clear plastic ice cube! I made two. And they worked perfectly for what I needed.
So after all this hard work (pretty easy TBH), you must be wondering, did I drink this tempting Old Fashioned once I'd finished photographing it? Yes, I did. But okay, I'll fess up: this was a *mocktail*, not a real cocktail. That "bourbon" in the glass was really just . . . iced tea! (No, really.)
Cheers!
