One of the frustration thing of using radio triggers is lacking of focus assist in dark environment. To "celebrate" the expiration on warranty of the ST-E2, I add a sync port to use the eBay trigger with it.

 

Beside focus aid, one of the advantage of this set up is to able to use the Canon EX Speedlites (in ETTL or manual mode) with other manual flash/strobe that connected to the RF receivers at the same time, without any sync problems.

 

Strobist info: eBay trigger fires manual master 580EX in a small softbox at left front of subject, slave 430EX in a home made beauty dish at right rear.

"Turner Rifles" are so called because they were made for paramilitary groups that were offshoots/satellite groups based out of German Turnhalls here in the United States. The Turn Hall was usually the center of the local Germanic culture. These were founded as gymnastic associations, but also had bands and orchestras, dance and choral groups, and much more. Many of them had "warrior associations" who drilled and practiced military tactics. Rifles such as this one are typical of those made for such groups. When the Civil War broke out, they enlisted immediately.

 

Turner rifles do not conform to an exact pattern, but could be described as a hybrid between a military musket and an American sporting rifle of that period. They usually have heavy octagon barrels and double set triggers as a sporting rifle would have, but also have a flat butt, sling swivels, and a bayonet lug for a saber bayonet.

 

Like most rifles during the mid 19th Century, these were individually made to order for the purchaser by a local gunsmith/gunmaker. The gunsmith who made this one was definitely not part of the Germanic culture, but could make a rifle as well as those who were. William Farrar was born in Ireland in 1828 and probably learned his trade there. He can be documented as a gunsmith in Galena, Illinois from at least as early as 1858 through 1861. The 1860 census list him as a "master gunsmith".

This is a shell I found on the beach and then photographed during our recent trip to Baja.

 

Strobist info: I first washed the shell and then spread a little cooking oil on it to make it shinier. I then placed it on top of a small mirror which was on top of a black cloth. I wanted to use side lighting to create the shadows which reveal the textures of the shell, so I positioned a YN560-II in a 24 inch softbox right next to the shell, camera left. I also hand held a small mirror, camera right, to bounce a little bit of light onto the darker side of the shell. The strobe, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.

this photo reminds me of the couch in an old friend's house...which also reminds me faintly of the beach, and something i can't quite place.

 

i'm endlessly fascinated by memory and how sensory input can trigger it. in the case of visual input, i am especially interested in abstract paintings, where a combination of colors and shapes seems to evoke something very deep and very distant.

 

cue an oscar wilde quote i was thrilled to discover that speaks to this topic beautifully: "mere color, unspoiled by meaning, and unallied with definite form, can speak to the soul in a thousand different ways."

 

sometimes i can place what about a piece of art reminds me of long ago...dark purples and reds and tan colors reminding me of an object i had as a child -- was it a stuffed animal? a purse? a pillow? i can't remember -- of multicolored velour that i sat on my bedroom floor observing, lost in some type of trance. or combinations of black, red, purple, and green reminding me of a piece of black fire opal i had, though it was so long ago my mother doesn't even remember me having it.

 

there's something even deeper and stranger to these remembrances, though, something i cannot describe as anything other than a vague-yet-specific feeling, a certain twinge in memory that is instantly recognizable to oneself, yet difficult -- perhaps impossible -- to put into words. an atmosphere, yet one foreign to myself -- one that feels like it belongs to someone else. i've been struck by these feelings my whole life, and always described them as "the haunted memories of someone else." but none are as odd to behold as the ones i remember from when i was a very, very young child, just two or three.

 

perhaps it was the fact i had little concept of life at that point, so things seemed extra weird. or perhaps, as it sometimes feels, i was remembering something from a past life. i am very interested in cases of children remembering their past lives. and though i'm open to the possibility that they're all just wild stories constructed by imaginative kids and attention-seeking parents, i'm willing to suspend disbelief sometimes and consider that perhaps there is something more to this life than the material -- that i was here before, not just as disparate, mindless particles dispersed throughout everything that took thousands of years to assemble into this form, but as a soul that has chosen to return.

A couple of weeks ago, a fantastic photographer, educator, and human being passed away. Bryan F Peterson. Bryan was a huge inspiration to me in the 2000's and through to the current day, have all his books and DVD.

 

I decided to get back to grass roots and bust out my Nikon D3s and carry it everywhere....well, my D3s had other ideas and decided to stop working. Fortunately the local camera store found me a trade in, lightly used one for an unbeatable price along with an SB800 speedlight.

 

We ventured down the front paddock today to do a couple of hours shooting with this beautiful camera and light from 2009!

This is the result SOOC of a 12Mp pro camera, a speedlight, and a small soft box.

I suffered with 'double finger bounce' on the app to trigger the pole mounted camera here, so this early shot is heavily cropped. Still works in some respects though. A 193 minute late departure of the 'clay', 6S94 04.24 Wembley to Irvine enabled light to be almost on the front of 66714 'Cromer Lifeboat' at this location at Hellifield, although by this time it was only 111 minutes down. 17/4/2019

This shot is from an engagement session with a really fun couple. The weather was incredibly bad and cold but we managed to get some shots that don't look like bad weather shots.

 

For strobists: This picture was taken under a bridge on a deserted road. The main light is just the natural light. I allways like the soft light under bridges etc. To spice up the shot and separate the subjects from the background, I placed a bare SB-24 (triggered with PW's) on a nano stand about 1 meter behind the man. I mesured for the available light on the faces and andjusted the strobe power to get the desired effect. I think the strobe was on 1/4 or 1/8.

This creates a nice rimlight for the subjects.

Society of Friends of Music in Vienna

The Society of Friends of Music in Vienna (briefly : Wiener Musikverein) is a traditional club in Vienna to promote musical culture. It was founded in 1812.

(Pictures you can see by clicking on the link at the end of the site!)

Founded Concert 1812

Foundation

On 29 November and 3 December 1812 was performed in the Winter Riding School of the Hofburg the Handel oratorio Timothy. This concert can be considered as a trigger for the founding of the Society of Friends of Music in Vienna. As the founder of the association is Joseph Sonnleithner (1766-1835) then secretary of the imperial Viennese court theater (Burgtheater and Kärntnertortheater). The proceeds of the concert should benefit the newly founded institution. Emperor Franz I donated 1,000 guilders, the net profit amounted to 25,934 florins finally Viennese currency. First office of the company was the Lobkowitz Palace today Lobkowitzplatz.

Goals

According to its statutes, which originated in 1814, is the "Empor renewed progress on music in all its branches" primary purpose of the Company.

The Friends of Music Society reaches(d) this in three ways:

The establishment of a conservatory,

The systematic collection of musicological documents (archive)

Organizing their own concerts.

To date, private commitment of individual members shapes the functioning of the Company. Since January 2000, all editions of the monthly appearing club newspaper "music lovers" on the website of the company are available .

Concerts

On the initiative of Antonio Salieri's first choral activities at the Musikverein go back, for example, also in 1824 at the Vienna initial or first performances of Beethoven's Missa Solemnis and 9th Symphony was involved. After there had been choral concerts of the Association for many years, then in 1858 was the official establishment of the Concert Choir held as a branch association of the Vienna Musikverein. The first principal conductor of the Vienna Singing Society was Johann von Herbeck, directs the choir since 1991, Johannes Prinz.

Musikverein (1831-1870) to the Tuchlauben (home to the Red Hedgehog), first building on the right, then No. 558, now No. 12

First concert hall of the society

1829 , the Company purchased a scoring for Kärnthnerviertl house on the Tuchlauben (home to the Red Hedgehog, rented from 1822, then House # 558, today Tuchlauben 12) with several business offices and apartments, it had the house demolished and gave at Franz Lossl (Site Manager: Carl Högl) by around 88,000 guilders (including equipment) the construction of a three storey new building with a concert hall on the 1st Floor in order. The site was approximately opposite the former Ofenlochgasse, since 1863 Kleeblattgasse. The Brandstätte that time not yet branched of from the Tuchlauben, but was a small place near the St. Stephen's Cathedral.

The festival opening concert of the hall took place on 4 November 1831 instead (then the cholera raged in Vienna). The Musikverein contributed among other things at this location (visitor concerts were still highly popular in the large ball room of the Hofburg ) essentially to the public concert life in Vienna.

The hall proved with 700 seats soon to be too small, but was still used for almost 40 years. 1846 gas lighting was installed. In the upper floors of the Conservatory and the archives of the Society, offices and rehearsal rooms were located.

The Society of Friends of Music in 1870 moved into their new house and sold its first house in the same year. In the subsequent use of it emerged inter alia the Strampfer-Theatre. The building was demolished in 1885.

Vienna Musikverein in 1898

Today's office of the Company

1863, Emperor Franz Joseph I donates the society from the state capital, the area on the bank of the river opposite the Vienna Karlskirche (church). It was on the former glacis of the 1858 demolished city walls around the old town. 1861-1869 emerged near the present-day Vienna State Opera, on the neighboring construction site on the riverbank 1865-1868 the Vienna Künstlerhaus, on the direction of ring road adjacent square 1862-1865 today's Imperial Hotel.

The of Theophil Hansen, who later built the Parliament, designed house, shortened to Vienna Musikverein, was on 6 January 1870 opened with a celebratory concert. That same year, the High Steward of the Emperor, Prince Constantine zu Hohenlohe-Schillingsfürst, was in gratitude for the favor of the imperial court for the new building project appointed as a honorary member of the society.

1869 Carl Heissler was the first conductor of the orchestra of the Society of Friends of Music in Vienna. 187, and 1872 was the Russian composer Anton Rubinstein artistic director of the company. After a short time he was replaced by Johannes Brahms.

Children and Youth Projects

In order to convey the joy of music and access to classical culture children and adolescents, the Friends of Music Society offers a pertinent program: In April 1989, it was the first "Celebration for Children" in all the rooms of the Musikverein building, since the offer has been steadily expanded and now includes more than 150 projects for all ages 3-19 years. The 20-year anniversary of the youth concerts was celebrated with a big party at the Vienna Musikverein in 2009. Symbol of child and youth concerts of the Society of Friends of Music is the concert clown Allegretto.

Artistic performances will be processed in accordance with the relevant age requirements paying particular attention to opportunities for active contribution. These include sing and dance along to the little ones, a gallery of children's drawings on the Internet and artist talks under the slogan "meet the artist" with internationally renowned conductors, soloists and composers for 15- to 19- year-old.

Conservatory of the Society of Music Lovers

The Conservatory was the first public music school in Vienna and was founded in 1819 by the violinist Joseph Böhm. As early as 1818, the Court Kapellmeister Antonio Salieri began to form a singing class. The general musical newspaper wrote here about 7 January 1818: "As the beginning of a newly established Conservatory imparts our worthy Hofkapellm. (chapel masteer) Salieri already to 12 girls and 12 boys gratuitous singing lessons."

On 19 April, the first 24 students of the Conservatory presented themselves in a collective concert of the Friends of Music to the public and sing an A cappella choral of Salieri. The dedication on the autograph reads: "Ringraziamento because farsi alli Benefattori del Conservatorio della musica nazionale inglese dalli primi Ventiquattro allieve dodici Ragazzi e dodici Ragazze, di detto luogo, nella quarta accademia dei dilettanti il giorno 19 Aprile 1818".

In the 19th Century, this facility has been significantly expanded, in the 1890s it had more than 1,000 students and found imitation in Vienna in other such facilities. In 1909, the private institute was to resolution of the emperor as "k.k. Academy of Music and Dramatic Art" nationalized. Thus, it is predecessor of today's University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna.
