From my series Things I Found On My Patio

Vietnam - On the way through the Sapa valley, I met three men who were doing some welding on some huge iron pipes. Here is one of the men.

Having a beer and throwing sparks Texas style! #BoSnapsPhotography

I cracked the front axle tube on the Jeep while running Poison Spider Trail in Moab. Years ago I had the tube sleeved, so I didn't lose any gear oil. In fact, I didn't even know this happened until I got back to the motel.

The local repair shop had me fixed and back on the trail in no time.

First shot with my new 10 stop welding glass filter ... 30second exp ... all for £1.50p inc p&p

Shot at ISO 100, f/22, 182 seconds with a welding glass.

There's a small remaining piece of industrial Vancouver a hop-skip-and-jump away from Vancouver's downtown core. Characterful and just a bit grungy, it's probably only a matter of time before this neighbourhood is bulldozed to make way for even more condos. July 21, 2008.

i was smart and focused my camera before the welding began. i want to keep my eyes and don't want to fry them by looking into a lense. the light is so bright and hot.

Shooting this, you want to use live view to avoid serious damage to your eyes. The intensity might not be good for the cameras sensor either, but I haven't seen any ill effects yet.

I liked the darkness here.

A 3 minute exposure in broad daylight using welding glass rubberbanded to the front of my lens hood. I completely eliminated the green thanks to shooting in .RAW and white blancing the crap out of it... But then it just felt like it was missing something so I added back a touch of green :-).
