I set up a still life on the mantlepiece, trying to use different shades of red. Natural light from a window. I used a white card to bounce some light back into the shadows.
52/52 - i finished!

i'm actually pretty proud of myself for getting all the way through this project - i did miss a few weeks, but all in all, i made it. i hope my work grew throughout the process, i feel like it did. i hope.
now for 2011 :)
Thought I would experiment with my new wireless flash trigger. So made a little studio in base of shower with white background, camera on tripod and experimenting with different exposures and flash settings. Used a shot glass to throw liquid in the air and see what I caught.
This is a composite obviously of ones I got in focus which also had interesting patterns.
slaine loves looking out of the window waiting for daddy to come home :)

You really need to look at it here. And I never ask this, so you know that it's a must.
Something completely different for once.
Usually I hatevertical photos, but this one is different.
But I am sorry for two weeks of black and white, but this just looked best in black and white!

Two more in the comments!
I've realized after last weeks photos I really wanted to continue my focus on dramatic light. My Daughter was just sitting in the chair by the window and the light was too perfect to pass up so I quickly grabbed my camera and got this shot.
We visited the kittens today and they re five weeks old. Can't wait till the three of them come home :o)
This tunnel leads to one of the 'ascensori' of Genova, public elevators throughout the city that go up the hill and make it easier to get around.
we've had a poopy week. merrick was definitely under the weather on friday and saturday ... it was more than just throwing up and unearthly smelling burps ... you could tell he was in pain and something was definitely wrong. he was restless, couldn't settle for even a minute, low energy, not playing, not running, nothing.
took him in ... xrays showed gas, possibly enlarged spleen ... but the most alarming thing was the VERY low platelet count.
took him in again on Saturday for some follow up bloodwork, and although the platelets had come up a little, they're still very low. the vet (not my regular vet) on Saturday told me that where he was then (vs. Friday) was high enough that we're no longer concerned about him bleeding out. huh!? the previous vet never even warned me about that possibility!
of course, when i read any personal experiences on-line re. low platelets in dogs, you read about numerous trips to the vet's and then ... the dog is dead, bled out, internal bleeding, or something. i hate the internet sometimes.
hopefully we'll have more answers as the week goes on...
Today, my buddy Logan decided he wanted to get a haircut. So we decided to have a little fun with it. No, unfortunately he didn't keep the mohawk. Luckily, I grabbed a snapshot before he had the chance to shave it off. Enjoy.
This was a difficult one! I wanted to find something really interesting but a busy week didn’t really have time to hunt for something. This is Richmond lock and weir and the technology is the machinery to make this work. Mostly hidden in this photo but I particularly liked the shadow on the footpath and the striking clouds.
on my day off i took slaine for a 2 hour walk to shipley glen, and because it was freezing there was hardly anyone around :o)
So, i know i originaly said i wouldn't use my work, but now two weeks in a row i have used it....
But im actually doing shoots i want to do, i wanted to go here over summer, but never got round to it! so here is one of the outakes :)
Being a Brit it's not often you get to see one of these in the flesh, saw this pull up whilst eating at the place across the road. I was also going to get a pic of the Jag behind but he drove off before I got the chance!
Our challenge for this week is CARING, any demonstration of caring you can think of.
The plant was backlit to explore the slight translucense of the green leaves and 45 degrees from the side for the plant, again, the hands and soil and for the shadow to fall on the palm of the hand.
Global processsing in LR where the luminance of green was increased and saturation slightly decreased, then to PS to clean up distracting elements and finishing in Color Effects Pro by Nik S/W.
For this week's shot, I wanted to find something which was completely natural landscape. So I headed yesterday to west Wicklow, about 30 minutes from where I live. The landscape there is basically bogland, punctuated by occasional trees and small streams. I've tried to capture that in this picture.
In summer, the landscape here is lush but in autumn, as the land transforms into it's more stark winter coat, the colours take on a brown and yellow tint. Here the colours are accentuated by the low setting sun which was to my right as I took this shot.
Well, it looks more like we only had two seasons this year but we really have four. ;)
Happy New Year to all of you.
