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.
Visited a workshop in DarEsSalam, Tanzania, where people with handicaps made art for a living. Here is one that welds a warthog of scrap metal.

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.

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 :-).
This is for Rosco who let me try out his welding lens and I finally got to play but probably not on the best very cold dull late afternoon. It was pretty dirty, well just not lacking the finess and clarity of a proper filter and needed a 2 minute exposure which is probably why everything was an interesting shade of green. So looks better as a mono. Might try it again on a bright sunny day.
Do not take long exposures because I can't carry a heavy tripod however since trying out a carbon one last week I might get back into this when the weather warms up. Still have a problem crouching though because of my Fibromyalgia and arthritis
I need to give some of my regular haunts a new look.
You can see the welds in the engine bay, looks awesome. :-D This car doesn't have one ounce of weight it doesn't need, except for the badges maybe.
Although I am pretty handy with a striker and torch, there are times when hiring a professional is the way to go. I am having huge wrought iron gates built to go within the arch across the courtyard beside Studio d'Xavier. Here, one of the artisans is welding puppy pickets. The high point of the arch across the top of the main gate will be eight and a half feet. it will span twenty feet.
The two ironworkers from Diamond Steel Construction have nearly finished welding the rails to the deck of the QTTX flat car.
