Madeline


From a photo shoot today.  Going for a "period" look.

OK.  Technically I took this on January 14th (12:43AM), but I haven't gone to bed yet so it doesn't count :-)

Since a few people have asked, here's what it is and how it is lit:

It's an old spring about 1 1/2" long on a piece of scrapbooking paper.  It's lit by one of those LED flashlights held off to the side with my right hand as I had the cable release in the left.

The scrapbooking paper makes for great backdrops when doing macro work.  You can get several sheets in a sample pack at WalMart, Hobby Lobby, etc for really cheap.  There are interesting colors and faux textures that really add visual interest.

And I LOVE my Zuiko ED 50mm f2.0 Macro.  Sharp as a tack with narrow DOF.  Also works as a great portrait lens, too.

This misery leaves me lonely and it holds me in
This misery is a shell from which behind I grin
And when my feelings cut me down so deep inside
I run with my shield and hide

These little babies are supposed to help.  Sometimes they don't do the best job...

(Sorry to be so depressing tonight.  It's been rough lately.)

A few from my collection...

I'm one of those crazy folks that still has hundreds of vinyl on my shelves.  When you have a good turntable and a clean record, it just sounds a touch warmer.  Particularly the jazz stuff.

I also miss the big sleeves :-)

Let Sleeping Bears Lie...

It was a GORGEOUS day here in Southeast Michigan.  Nearly 50 and sunny.  So, I took my daughter and a friend down to the zoo.  And pulled my camera out of the bag for the first time in two weeks.

Here's my favorite from the day.  He looks so peaceful, but I wouldn't want to mess with him :-)

"My Boy and His Toy"

OK, it's much more of a snapshot than my usual, but he was so kind enough to pose.  He actually sat completely still while I took this.  I was able to even drag the shutter a bit on this one!

In case anyone's interested, his name is Orion and he's a Parson Jack Russel who just turned 2 years old five days ago.  

Can someone tell me where their off switch is?
