Just grab this bubble and run the click very quick with my smart phone. Lovely rainbow reflect on it , then the ball were braked on the wind blow... so very quick :)

My neighbourhood inside a lamp bulb
The recipe:
Fisrt you have to hollow the bulb lamp. I followed these instructions
Then I filled the bulb with water and hung it upside down from a stand.
I took the stand and lamp to my balcony and made the shot, having a gap of sky between the buildings as backdrop - leaving that refraction put all the scenery "inside" the bulb.
It was edited then in Lightroom 3 where I rotated the image 180º and used a split tone technique to get this result.

A few nights ago a large thunderstorm rolled across the Phoenix area. my immediate thought was to grab my camera and take some pictures. Now I've done this before and I have never been all that lucky in getting a fantastic image in the 30 seconds I keep the shutter open. How the heck could I take a picture that had an exposure of minutes and not totally nuke the film? Humm... Well my pinhole cameras are pretty slow and the pinoramic is nice and wide. I decided to give it a try and this is what do you know, the strikes were bright enough to record on the film. Quite nicely I might add. The negs were pretty thin so this is the best I could do. I would have liked the background to be better exposed, or exposed at all for that matter. All in all its good for an exposure that was done without a lens. Its all cloudy right now so I'm going to prep the camera for another run tonight. I'm aiming for an hour exposure, that should cook the film quite nicely.

One of the many things you can use a light bulb for. This is a collection of junk I found in my tool box tonight. Kind of a new age Victorian vacuum tube.

The Macro Monday theme today was Lamps. Not a complicated theme -- but leave it to me to change that.
Several weeks ago, I found this link about how to hollow out a light bulb. I saved it as a project for another day. When I saw the lamp theme (and oh how I love a theme to help me think of something... anything... for a photograph), I knew I had the chance to use my hollowed out bulb idea.
Any project that involves power tools, goggles, and gloves = awesome fun! Thanks to the man for helping me with the drilling.
Truthfully, I wasn't exactly sure what I was going to do with the hollowed out bulb but why let that get in the way of power tools? After the bulb was sufficiently hollow (so much harder to do than the website lets you think), I set out to take some pictures.
Thinking of this quote, I grabbed some little books and then strung up some lights for some bokeh in the background. I carefully set the bulb on the book and took one picture.
One picture is all I took. It was at that moment that I spazzed out about the dog's incessant barking and I jumped up to fuss at her. The bulb crashed off the books and broke. I could just cry on your shoulder...
That was a lot of work for one picture. One darn picture.
Maybe I'll hollow out another bulb on another day. Today, I am going to make do with one picture.

Hey, its my pinhole camera. One of a few now...
This camera has a curved film plane (seen here) to eliminate fall off and reduce distortion and produces an image on 35mm film that is about 28mm x 75mm. The angle of view is somewhere in the neighborhood of 80 degrees. the f stop is apx 170. I have a few 3D images that I took while building it here.
My entry for this weeks photo comp thingy. Saw some pics using this type of technique earlier this week by guenther_haas and couldn't resist having a go myself.
All the pixels inside the bulb are as shot but there was some intensive ps work to remove the backgrounds and to finalize the bottom of the bulbs, this is not a hobby for the time-constrained!
That said, I think I learned a few short cuts today that might make this a bit easier next time around.
Thanks go to John at Teamdroid for an excellent guide on how to create the basics on the bulb.

At the last moment I decided to make a costume. So, I built this in about three hours before I went out on Friday.
Umm... 2 33 ohm resistors in parallel to provide way too much current for the LEDS, but what the heck.
