won't end till after midnight. Our snow-plow guy's already cleared the driveway this morning - will probably be back either this evening or tomorrow morning... Hubby cleared a drift from the front porch twice the depth of what you see still on the walkway. I'm done with winter. Saw a cute meme on FB earlier today - SNOW = Sh*t No One Wants.

Week No. 34: Projected light - unusual modifiers
Category: Technical/Creative
A challenge this week to create an image using an unusual/diy light modifier. I started with my flash on a stand and tried a few things in front of it, the decided to add my "pringle tube snoot" that I created for a 52 week challenge almost exactly 5 years ago. See my behind the scenes shot from 2017.
I then added a couple of things in front of that, settling on a bath scrunchie pushed into the tube. This created a soft but very narrow light source. The scrunchie was actually pretty thick to shine light through and I ended up cranking the flash upto 1/2 power to get the shot. Anyway, it worked quite nicely.
Pop over to my 52 week Instagram to see the alternative and behind the scenes shots.
I post most frequently to my main Instagram and Vero so there are more photos there.
It's hard to beat starting the day with a hike. This is one of my favorite little local spots.

Floral illustrations from one of the most influential botanical artists, Georg Dionysius Ehret (1708–1770), German botanist and entomologist. He started his career as a gardener's apprentice traveling and working across Europe. Ehret was known for his Linnaean style of botanical illustrations since he closely worked with the "father of modern taxonomy", Carl Linnaeus. Ehret collaborated with Carl Linnaeus and George Clifford on his first botanical collection. We have digitally enhanced some of his botanical plates into high resolution printable quality.

With less than four seconds remaining in the countdown, Mark Tripp initiates a false start, probably to compensate for his poor starting position. Swimmers nearby join in, and the race is off. Nobody seems particularly concerned.
