Trapped

Bruce Springsteen

 

Seems like I'm caught up in your trap again

Seems like I'll be wearing the same old chains

Good will conquer evil and the truth will set me free

And I know someday I will find the key

I know somewhere I will find the key

Seems like I've been playing your game way too long

Seems the game I've played has made you strong

When the game is over I won't walk out the loser

I know I'll walk out of here again

I know someday I'll walk out of here again

 

This one nearly killed my brain (And I only have a little one).

6:45am is WAYYYYYYYYYYYY too early for my brain to be in thinking mode.

I only had my 35mm prime lens with me this morning, and there was no way I was going to get this entire scene into one frame. I stood there looking at it for what seemed like forever, knowing that as the minutes passed, the colour was vanishing, and I still had no idea how I was going to do this.

So, heres how it panned out.

Pointed the camera at the rockpool and foreground rock, took a 5 image bracketed shot, focused on the stones. re-focused on the rock just at the edge of the water and took another set of 5 bracketed images. Moved the camera on the ballhead upwards, using the level on the back of the camera to keep everything level in the scene, until only half the rockpool was in the image, and the rocks in the middle of the shot were now centred. Waited for the waves to create the right amount of flow, and shot about 10 single images to ensure I had good flow over all 10 images. Moved the ballhead again, this time ensuring the headland in the background was centred and in focus. Took another 5 images, bracketed, but stopped down by 2/3rds of a stop first on the camera (the sky was quite bright at this stage. Used my filter case to block the rising sun on the right while I was taking the final 5 bracketed images, as I was getting a lot of sunglare at this stage.

Put all images into photoshop, and blended and transformed, until I ran out of skin on my mouse finger.

A lot of effort, but worth it I think.

And lastly, I'm not a huge fan of presenting images in Portrait format, but in this case, I didnt have much choice.

Anyhow, time to ice the old brain now, as its overheated.

Hope you like "Trapped"

Cheers, Mike

Here's a quick shot of some of the methane bubbles trapped in a frozen pond in Northern Utah. The methane comes from decaying organic matter. It's almost like they are trapped in time.

This old work horse has come to rest and is slowly dying in the field. Amazing how the two small front wheels have gone away yet the large rear tires still remain.

This is a Massey Harris not Ferguson - a more rare find! One for my Canadian friends.

In the glow of a brand-new year,

Let courage rise and silence fear.

Live each moment, bold and free,

Write your story, let it be.

 

Dance through life with hearts alight,

Chase your dreams into the night.

For every scar, a tale to tell,

A path to hope, where strength will dwell.

 

May the days ahead be bright,

Filled with love, and endless light.

In the spirit of "The Nights," stay true,

This year’s adventure waits for you.

Some randomness today...a bumblebee on the window. I rescued it and took it outside after this. It's sad to hear that even bumblebees are facing extinction in some parts of the world:-(

Debt trap. Sounds almost like a death trap. It’s a bottomless hole, which you can fall into for the rest of your life

A girl trapped in this world where she's stuck as being someone else.

 

Snow day photoshoot. I got the mirror for free at a flea market, it's the best thing I've ever gotten free.

I have had this image for ages on my hard drive. This is a bunch of traps I had in my previous neighbourhood. The disorder and colours attracted me and I shot many shots of this, never quite happy with the result.

This is as close to what I wanted to end up with....

 

Today I trapped cat #1 ...he's at the vet tonight and will have his plumbing removed tomorrow. After a couple days of rest he'll be taken back to his feline family.

 

Update: 12/3/09

He was returned to his "home" at 5:30 am.......now his hormones will dissipate and he won't be impregnating the poor female cats in this colony any more. I noticed there are at least four more males to trap.

  

 

Don't grow up it's a trap.

Why should we stop playing if we are having fun.

A smile upon our faces when the days I done.

Kiss the world goodnight and start all over again.

 

I'm like the kid on the moon or Peter Pan.

Flying so high because I can.

Keep on being who you are.

Once you are like them there is no turning back.

 

Someone once told me that getting older is a privilege but also a big kick in the face sometimes.

It is possible to keep some of the best parts of our youth and still appreciate getting older.

Accept and respect that if we are lucky, we will all grow older but remember; don't grow up, it's a trap! (.❛ ᴗ ❛.)

I love Sydney, but there's a definite similarity to living and working in a big city and being a bird in a cage.

This was the strangest gate - this pretty girl's photo was a part of the metal bars going in all directions. Small plate size.
