Australian pelican (Pelecanus conspicillatus)

Sa technique de pêche repose sur l'affût, perché sur une branche au-dessus de l'eau. Il repère ses proies en agitant la tête de droite à gauche, puis soit pique directement, la tête la première, depuis son perchoir, soit effectue un bref vol stationnaire avant de plonger. Il revient souvent se poser sur son perchoir dont il se servira pour assommer sa proie avant de la lancer en l'air pour la gober tête la première.

Le succès de ses pêches est très sensible aux conditions climatiques, la pluie troublant la surface, ou la turbidité de l'eau rendant le repérage des proies plus difficile.

Le martin-pêcheur régurgite des pelotes de réjection, dont une partie constitue la couche sur laquelle les œufs seront déposés au fond du terrier.

His fishing technique is based on the lookout, perched on a branch above the water. He spots his prey by waving his head from right to left, then either spades directly, head first, from his perch, or performs a brief hovering before diving. He often comes back on his perch which he will use to knock out his prey before throwing it in the air to swallow head first.

The success of its fisheries is very sensitive to the climatic conditions, the rain disturbing the surface, or the turbidity of the water making the identification of the preys more difficult.

The kingfisher regurgitates balls of rejection, part of which is the layer on which the eggs will be deposited at the bottom of the burrow.

Songo Drumming Project in the Park

1) Go to a dog park

2) Select a macro subject

3) Get low to the ground, camera to your face

4) Get broadsided by a running 70-pound Great Dane pup as you press the shutter

5) Get licked to death by the same puppy... ;)

Trike Harley-Davidson. Of course I like more than the usual two-wheeled bikes, but we must also think about those who are already difficult to cope with such a technique. I remembered the movie "Sons of Anarchy": father - of red traveled on a three-wheeled bike. And our Putin, once came to the meeting with bikers in Sevastopol on this Trike Harley-Davidson.

My Stylised imagery is created from my photographs, I edit them using various techniques on my iPad Pro. I use a combination of the apps listed below:

 

Retouch for Clone stamp editing and blur brush

Tangled FX for outline work

Procreate for Brush Strokes, image merging and Layering

Stackables for Texture creation and layering

Photomator for upscaling, denoise, debanding, super resolution, fine image adjustments and exporting of final imagery

I get to observe a number of birds while they are foraging and either I've been asleep or have never seen a Little Blue Heron employ the old toe tapping technique of the Snowy Egret! This guy was doing just that and the minute the poor hapless fish made a move to escape the toe it ended up in the beak!!! Photo was taken on Horsepen Bayou!!

I love to photograph bridges especially from below which enhances the graphic lines of the bridge. A foggy morning added atmosphere to this photo of Eads Bridge over the Mississippi River at St. Louis.

Refining my comet shooting technique after the dramas of last time. I used a Nikon D810A with a Sigma Art 135mm lens at f/2, ISO200, 27 x 30 second shots during and beyond astro twilight. The camera was on a ZWO AM5, I used the ZWO ASIAIR Mini to polar align, then get my framing where I was happy with it, and ran the autofocus routine with a ZWO EAF connected to the lens. Once that was done I ran unguided in continuous exposure mode with a wired shutter release that locks on, while I shot landscape astro comet shots with the other camera. For processing I used APP, I didn't do any comet alignment. I removed much of the astro twilight colour from the sky and with more subs the satellites are almost gone. The artifact on the bottom right is from the ground getting in the frame! Final processing in Photoshop.

Most think a hawk hunts and kills from above, but this hawk uses a different technique. This hunter works its way among low bushes, hunting inside the bushes, under them, whatever it takes.

I continue to have fun temporarily with pieces from the PaB without my stock pieces. Of them little can be done but when there's only a plastic Cup... The desire to build immediately increased. Can the pressure is gone and the duty to do something unimaginable without giving the abyss pieces. Oh well - soon I finish moving and will be content better :-)

Inverted bracket keeps on giving.

After some nights spent to learn and practice new imaging techniques, I propose a version of my first attempt to Andromeda Galaxy, less harsh, more realistic and detailed and (I hope) nicer to see.

Panoramic photography is a technique of photography, using specialized equipment or software, that captures images with horizontally elongated fields of view. It is sometimes known as wide format photography. The term has also been applied to a photograph that is cropped to a relatively wide aspect ratio, like the familiar letterbox format in wide-screen video.

While there is no formal division between "wide-angle" and "panoramic" photography, "wide-angle" normally refers to a type of lens, but using this lens type does not necessarily make an image a panorama. An image made with an ultra wide-angle fisheye lens covering the normal film frame of 1:1.33 is not automatically considered to be a panorama. An image showing a field of view approximating, or greater than, that of the human eye – about 160° by 75° – may be termed panoramic. This generally means it has an aspect ratio of 2:1 or larger, the image being at least twice as wide as it is high. The resulting images take the form of a wide strip. Some panoramic images have aspect ratios of 4:1 and sometimes 10:1, covering fields of view of up to 360 degrees. Both the aspect ratio and coverage of field are important factors in defining a true panoramic image.

Although I have included an image of Dyrholaey Beach earlier in my photostream I thought it worth processing the shot in colour, emphasising the subtle hues of the landscape.

We have a special challenge at We’re Here! today: “It's a Saturday ... so today, let's spend a few minutes (or hours) showing off one of your favorite special photographic techniques. And, in your photo's description, explain what you did to get the intended (?!) result.”

 

Our images are then to be foisted upon our unsuspecting host What’s Your Technique?

 

I love creating images made out of several blended photographs. The elements come from my archives, recent or old, and are usually from several separate locations and different times. It’s great fun to enter these in contests when they fit the theme – and the contest themes themselves often serve as the inspiration for the image created. I don’t often “win” the contests, but that is hardly the point. Just as with the “We’re Here” themes, it is the challenge and creative work that causes me to spend my precious hours doing this. I have been wanting to create a new texture for a while now. These take me more time than seems reasonable – so today’s the day!

 

I combined a snap of my daughter’s kitchen wall in afternoon sunlight and a sandstone wall at a Napa winery, ran the result through Manga 5 Art Studio for some spray painting, and tortured that in “Paint Shop Pro” with blurring, layering, contrast adjustments, and a software-generated “straw texture”, until I couldn’t possibly remember how to do it again. Then I blended several different layers of it in different opacities and saturations with my subject – taken at the Idaho Springs Heritage Museum. The originals of my new texture and the owl shot are in the comment box below. I altered the dates to the past so they will “fall out” of my current photostream.

 

And, voilà! I have to fess up to falling into the “a few hours” category of Hereio today! I don’t have a contest in mind, but Spotlight Your Best has a “Bird Life” theme this month, so I will put it there.

 

Elastic Band Trick

 

Other People have done this before, some may have better techniques than this but this is the one I use. Feel free anyone to use this and I'm always open to questions and suggestions etc. Thanks for reading and enjoy!

  

Elastic Band Trick

 

The detailed picture step guide to get positioning of the arms on Lego Figures using one small elastic band.

 

I used small medical scissors because they were pointed and curved to get into the arm hole and the loop of the band to pull it out the other arm hole. You can use pretty much anything with those qualities. (Curved and pointed)

     

A facade technique for corners. The important part is this, which may be hard to source. The offset is a half-plate on each side of the dark bley block. I would love to see a solution that is solid and only uses in-production parts.

Fire breathing is the act of creating a plume of fire by breathing a stream of fuel over an open flame. It can be a dangerous activity but the proper technique and the correct fuel reduces the risk of injury. Fire breathing is performed by both professionals and non-professionals. Professional fire breathers usually incorporate the fire performance skill within a show where other fire skills are performed. The element of danger in performing fire breathing and other fire skills enhances the entertainment spectacle for many audience members

"It’s such a simple technique, but I’m honestly not sure I’ve ever seen anyone mix dark bluish gray and light bluish gray to produce the illusion of wet and dry stone before. I certainly haven’t seen it done as well as Hubba Blöoba accomplishes it here."

Here's my first build for RebelLUG's annual competition, Vignweek. The prompt was "ancient." Let me know what you think in the comments!

Studies in selective focus from the back porch

The need for an image to post weekly on the blog motivates me to pick up the camera even when life seems busy and full with other things as it is now. With bright sun and wind on Hay Bay, I tried some in-camera double exposure ICM images using the darks blend mode.

Paper Crafting Technique of Lion Heads

 

Lion head paper crafting has a long history in Hong Kong. The birthday celebrations held for deities in villages are usually accompanied by dancing lions or other auspicious animals. They worshipped at shrines and temples to report to the deities, and hence lion head paper crafting emerged. The lion head costume comes in Foshan 佛山裝, Heshan 鶴山裝 and “Fo-He” 佛鶴裝 styles. Some craftmen depict the lion heads in different colours to resemble historical figures from the Three Kingdoms such as Liu Bei 劉備 (yellow face with multicoloured patterns and a white beard), Guan Yu 關羽 (red face with a black beard), Zhang Fei 張飛 (black-and-white face, green nose with a black beard), Zhao Yun 起趙雲 (green face with a black beard), Huang Zhong 黃忠 (with yellow as the main tone). Lion head paper crafting comprises four processes, namely crafting the frame, mounting the paper, colouring and decorating 紮作,撲紙,寫色,裝上裝飾配件。

I love to do macros, and usually try to get good crisp focus on them. But I decided to go with an abstract for this challenge.

52 Weeks of 2019 - Week No. 8 - Theme: Macro - Category: Technique

Macro Mondays - What is That?

Technique: Sometimes the subject I'm shooting gets so use to me being close that it just goes about its business as if I'm not there. All I had to do is set the camera to under expose the natural light in the background, and I shaded the subject so that the flash was the only significant light source on the mantis (to freeze motion).

 

Tech Specs: Canon 70D (F11, 1/125, ISO 200) + a Canon EF-S 60mm macro lens with 37mm of extension + a diffused MT-24EX (flash head "A" set as the key and "B" as the fill, with the key on a Kaiser flash shoes). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held.

Leaf, snow rocks. Created 4 layers, each layer was a different color. Flipped the 4 layers around so each layer was in a different position. Combined the four together and this is the result. Very easy to do. Try it on shots that don't turn out 100%. You'll be pleased with the results.
