As I approached their nesting gourds, they began to fly around my head. I was able to synch speeds and get my glass on this one for a few shots. It's sometimes like shooting gnats with a BB gun to photograph swallows, martins, and swifts.
Woken by Claire at 6.45 am to the news the lake was flat calm as she looked from our hotel window on Grasmere Lake we got ready and shot around to the foot of Loughrigg Fell.
I took this pano which consisted originally of 15, yes 15 shots taken with the Canon 24-105 in portrait orientation at 105mm. The light was poor, sky flat and I found it really difficult to get a shot where the sky wasn't blown out. I had a 0.9 SE grad for the sky then a 0.75 SE grad upside down for the reflection of the sky on the water. Even with them it was still difficult to control the dynamic range.
I did take bracketed shots but found the middle exposure to be workable so stuck with that.
In this final version i've cropped quite a lot of the left hand side as it didn't help with the comp.
The shot really made my Macbook struggle for teh first time ever and froze while trying to make a layer in Colour Efex Pro 4. The tiff file was 1.7 gb!

I opened 15 RAW files in Adobe Camera Raw and made some basic lens corrections with all 15 shots synched before importing them to Photoshop.
I stitched the pano using Photomerge but when the final image appeared it was very skewed down to the left. Using the Transform Perspective tool I retrieved the shape then using the Warp tool I pulled the bottom right down and the top left up to fill in areas so that I wouldn't have to crop more out of the height.
I used Colour Efex Pro 4's Pro Contrast filter to add more definition to the trees and land.
I felt that the composition looked to heavy on the left so cropped approx 1/4 out to make the shot more balanced.
Lastly after saving a Tiff file and 300dpi jpeg I used Tony Kuypers Resize & Sharpen action to resize to 900px for Facebook and saved as a PNG file.
I think I really need to try visiting the lakes in the winter months so I can catch sunrise or sunset for some nicer light but I was just happy to actually get calm waters for the reflections :D
Anyone who is on Facebook I've had a Photography page for a couple of months now so feel free to pop in and say hi :)
Sidenote, liking the new Flickr layout! Its back to how it was before the big change but better :)
Looking over Waverly Station towards St Andrew's House the home of the Scottish Government. To the left is the old Calton Jail and the tower in the background sits on Calton Hill. Its called Nelson's Monument built to commemorate the Battle of Trafalgar it used to have a ball that dropped in synch with the One o'clocl gun so sailers could keep time.

It is funny how regularly K2’s pisé and position is identical to Kennedy’s. They’re not related by birth but are so amusingly in synch. Even in sleep.
This is actually a night time photograph with only one low corner lamp. The handheld long-exposure night-mode on the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max makes it so well-lit. See 3D at lnkd.in/dEHNUdhQ .

After getting a really nice sunset image from this spot and a 4 minute exposure from under the pier, I waited for the sun to go down. An extra long exposure and a little light still in the sky allowed the scene to become evenly lit. The wheel spun about 5 times during this exposure. The spinning wheel turned out to be the most import factor to getting a good photograph.
Sometimes the wheel stopped, and the dynamic feel of the resulting image was lost. Sometimes it would turn too quickly and become out of synch with the way the lights on the spokes worked, creating odd-looking effects. So a lot of experimentation was required to get a smooth and dynamic look without distracting features. Improvisation is often required to get the best photograph possible.
Also, the sand was reflective like this only part of the time. So that had to be factored in.

Rotating shutter 1- 1/500 and B, flash synch at all speeds.
Half format SLR, using a quite complex optic arrangement, to avoid the traditional bulge on the top plate.
This is a half format camera, one gets twice the number of exposures, per roll of 135 film, with half the size. Holding the camera horizontally the exposures have portrait orientation.
Design of Yoshihisa Maitani, designer of other iconic Olympus cameras as the OM-1 and the XA.
The story:
I found the zoom in a flea market and bought it very cheap.
Went to evilBay and bought the camera. When my friend Juan Felipe Gómez T knew of this offered me the 38mm lens, send it by a friend who came to Porto, last week, Gracias Juan.
Here you can see some pictures taken with it

Slow synch flash with shutter at 3 seconds. Used tripod with panning of stationary Matchbox VW which measures 1 5/8 inches in length. Required a number of attempts playing with Exposure Triangle variables to achieve the desired effect of the car being more or less in focus while simultaneously giving the illusion of it being in motion. Alternate image of 5 x 5 x 25 mm multi-colored blocks is technically good but cars are inherently associated with motion and wooden blocks not so much: www.flickr.com/gp/blackjackstone/Aa5473

Since coming back from NYC i've mainly focused on editing my Infra Red shots and this is another which is a 13 shot pano. Im so glad we managed to get around nearly all of Central Park, a beautiful area situated within the streets & avenues of the concrete jungle
This lake is just South of the middle of the park and spans from the West side to the East side with Loeb Boathouse over to the East side. It also has a beautiful cast iron bridge spanning its narrowest point named Bow Bridge which has featured in many blockbuster movies. I had seen photos of it at the many art & photo sellers around Manhattan so asked one where it was. The guy said it was East which hampered us finding it and led to much zig zagging around the park but we weren't complaining as we ended up finding many other great spots.
For the record the twin buildings in the background are 145 - 147 Central Park West, The San Remo Buildings which are luxury apartments.

I'll be honest here and say it was either the Heliopan RG665 or Hoya R72, I cant remember.
Processing Info...
I opened the 13 RAW files in Adobe Camera Raw, synched them and applied a lens profile to them all.
I then made a few adjustments before importing them to PS CS6.
Next using PS's Photomerge option I stitched them together to make the panorama. I pulled the corners out a little using the Transform Warp tool to fill the blank white spaces left, something that happens in panos.
Next using Khromagery's Action I switched the red & blue channels to get yellow foliage and a blue sky. I darkened the sky a touch then using a Luminosity Mask I selectively lifted the exposure on the right side of the Bridge as it was a little dark. The one thing i've found with Infra Red is that shadows are really accentuated so it can be tricky at times when you have trees looming.
I think one thing i've learned is its very important to go to these locations when the sun is in the correct position so maybe early afternoon rather than morning. That said by the time we got to the Guggenheim Museum it was very dull and cloudy... if only we could control the weather eh!

When you first take an astrophoto with Seestar you get terribly excited. You are astonished that you've captured a deep space object perhaps hundreds of millions of light years away with a small inexpensive device about the size (but not the shape) of the Maltese falcon. After a while as your critical eye improves you begin to notice shortcomings. The star colors seem garish, the stars are bloated, poorly defined and they overpower the galaxy or nebula, which is the subject. After some research on YouTube you figure out a way to control that.
For all the wonderful qualities of the Seestar it doesn't track all that well. What that means is that as the camera is exposing the sky the motor moves the camera with the rotation of the Earth. Fine. But I've noticed that the two are perfectly in synch, which leads to stars that are slightly stretched in one direction. While there is a multi-step process to correct that with software the easiest solution is to make each exposure shorter. Even though the Seestar will now do one minute exposures, I have found that 10 second exposures produce the least stretching problems.
The above image used 20 second exposures and I went through the process to make them round once again. I think it was a success, but a lot of work that could have been avoided by using shorter exposures. I think each Seestar is slightly different and I've found that some angles/elevations are more of an issue than others.

Ciro-flex Model E features the f3.5 85mm Wollensak Velostigmat in the better Rapax shutter with synch, speeds to 1/400. Like most Ciros, the case strap probably broke years ago, and a previous owner fashioned a replacement short strap, held to the case with copper rivets. This one has the rare lens cap, instruction booklet, accessory brochure and a brochure on flash synch with the Ciro-flex.
Unlike the previous hummingbird image I posted, this image was taken using a multi-flash (4 flashes) set-up. By eliminating the ambient light and using multiple synchronized flashes set at low power, you are able to capture images at what is effectively ~1/8000 - 1/20000 of a second (i.e. even though the camera's shutter speed is 1/200 of a second (under the flash synch speed), the effective time to discharge the flashes when set at low power (the only source of light affecting the exposure) is much, much faster).
4M45 Felixstowe - Garston passing Grendon, getting near the end of the 86s on Freightliner services. Pantographs nicely in synch, and the 'right' way round, aesthetically. This was the last scheduled run...adding a note on 14th Jan, they've done the last three days on this 4L60/4M45 circuit!
This is another shot of the MTB-Tour we did last Saturday. There's a lot of autumn leaves on the ground now so that not only the upper part has these nice colors, but the whole image (except the rider) gets yellow and orange.
I used my YN-568 in FP-Synch Mode for this one, too and I also put a gel filter in front of it to get a warmer light.
Next thing to try will be a "over-the-fog-mtb-shot".
Feel free to add comments on things you like or dislike.
This was my one and only attempt at this sort of thing. I'm not sure my son will be quite so accommodating next time. Apparantly a suspended water balloon didn't ring any alarm bells and he didn't connect it with our earlier conversation about bursting water balloons over his head! Not the image I was looking for and there's some out of synch flash I think but I think it still makes for a good photo. Re-worked to darken a messy background.

This is the first in a series of images I intend to do called "Endeavour". It will be about people who challenge themselves in any sport, hobby or vocation or business but will probably not be just about fighters. More fighting in the everyday sense of the word and not just fighters who fight in the ring.
The intention is to create very much stylised images. My aim is not recreate reality but convey emotion, mood and atmosphere in the images. For me photography is not about replicating reality, its about evoking emotion. Its about creating drama and evoking a reaction in the viewer. This is not a representation of the Madra Mor Gym. There is no window with cobwebs lit by the light of the moon. It's a clean and functional gym lit with natural light and fluorescent lighting but is that type of lighting going to evoke emotion?
Background To This Image
This was a shot I took at the Madra Mor Boxing Academy (www.madramor.co.uk/) of boxer and trainer Gavin Conway. I used four studio lights. The Lencarta super fast flash units: 2 x 300 & 2 x 600 Super Fast studio lights. I have been very pleased with the Lencarta lights both in the studio and on location. I also have the 1000 LED studio light for continuous lighting (not used on this shoot).
For this shot I used two of the 30 X 140cm strip box diffusers and for the main light their large 150cm Octagon umbrella softbox. Using their flash synch I can control all the heads from the transmitter on my camera.
Processed in Photoshop CC using 45 different layers as I experimented to get the look and feel I was after. Not all layers have been used in the final image and I clone stamped the image a few times. In the final image I left some layers invisible. I took my time to decide if I wanted the different effects I had created. In the end I decided on this image a less saturated version. The pure B&W seems to work as well.
I left the image 24 hours and then went back to it with fresh eyes to make the finishing touches. Total processing time probably 5 hours give or take.
A very enjoyable, though brief visit to Tynemouth Beach with Mr Quornflake. We had to leg it after this shot as the tide was heading decidedly inwards.

This is a totally processed shot, for some reason the shutter was synched way to high and alot of my images were just underexposed..so, i started to fool around a bit and all of a sudden - great looking sky!
From the Big Trip 3D slide archives - 2004.
This shot takes in a lot of things. First is my darling wife Carol, who often jokingly referred to herself as my 3D "roadie"! She often had the task of carrying various pieces of gear to help me in the quest for the right shot. Here she is taking her own 2D shot, while standing between my 3D rig.
The view is taken from the top of a small hill in Alice Springs within the Olive Pink botanic gardens. We are looking west to the Western MacDonnell ranges. In the mid left, you can make out the dry riverbed of the Todd River.
This also shows one of my two main 3D camera set-ups that I used on the trip. This is the twin rig consisting of two matching Canon 300V SLR film cameras. They are fitted with 24-85mm zoom lenses and are both fired off in perfect synch using a single infra red remote control. To get perfectly matching exposures, they had to be used in full manual mode, which meant setting each one individually with the right matching settings for aperture, shutter speed, and focus, as well as trying to match the zoom. Here you can see the left tripod containing one camera on a special aluminium bar that holds some Manfrotto slide bar mounts that allowed me to vary the separation of the two cameras when side by side on the one tripod. In this shot, they are actually on separate tripods for some extreme 3D effect. This is a technique called hyper-stereo which gives an exaggerated 3D effect for views which are distant and would otherwise appear flat in standard 3D. It was a fun technique to play with. The separation of the cameras could vary a lot. My record is something like 1000 feet! Although I took a shot here with the twin rig in the position shown, it was not a keeper. I took this particular shot with my other main purpose built RBT 3D camera.
Taking some seemingly simple shots was sometimes an involved process, and it kept us both on our toes and kept us fit too! It was challenging, but always very good fun.

so... yeah, this is mean but i mostly love this attraction b/c it's soooo badly done. it's not the fault of any of the performers... but, it is lip synched, and totally watered down... having seen the broadway version so many times, this one always makes me laugh!
