My Wish For You This Day
Image by drp
My wish for you this day would be...
The comfort of family and friends.
The laughter and innocence of children.
The warmth of belonging to something greater than your self.
The healing power of grace and forgiveness.
The peace of a mind freed from worrying thought.
The strength of a spirit emboldened by faith.
The passionate work to achieve all goals.
The confidence to conquer every doubt.
The happiness born of unconditional love.
The hope to see the world with new eyes.
The promise of a tomorrow better than today.
The wish that each dream forged in your heart comes true.
[ + ]
I'm reinstating a practice I feel is very important.
Those of you who have known me for a while will remember this:
As a way of returning the extraordinary generosity and support
you have all shown me in this great community, whenever I upload
a new pic or series of shots this year, I'll provide a link to another
flickr photographer whose work, personality, or spirit I feel you
should discover.
Visit and introduce yourself. Make a friend. Share the love.

My talented and beautiful wife was drawn to shoot this lovely Tropical Water Lily bud, seen at the New York Botanical Garden. She sure has a keen eye for beauty. Well, she married me, didn't she?

Through the Lens
Image by davidz
When my brother visited last month he asked if he could borrow my old 20D and it looks like he's doing great already. I also told him not to get hooked on buying lenses. Well, if giving him advice on lens buying counts as that. Hmm :-)
Also, I'm safely back from NYC. It was a good trip although I must admit I didn't really do anything I couldn't have done at home. But still, all the little things like hanging out for a few hours in Central Park, ordering roomservice, going through lots of small and intersting stores made it worth it. Didn't take many photos and the ones I got are mediocre at best. They're in my stream just behind this one.
And I fought the desire to buy a new lens! Someone should buy me a lens just for that!

Some cool flash photo images:
fotoopa D24576
Image by fotoopa
Test setup to measure and drive the Nikon flashes via the TTL flash mode. Purpose is to control fast and remote wireless all my flashes. I need to change very quick the powerlevel of all the flashes the same time from my central control unit just by rotation on a simple buttom. I've found that even the flashes can be driven lower then the 1/128 power settings if you use the TTL mode. Now i prepare all the timings.
Wireless will be driven by the RF12B chips. This chips works on 866Mhz (also other ranges for the states are possible). Minimum range is about 50m from the controller.
I will give all the timings, diagram from the logic analyser very soon. The homemade cost for all this is very low, only a few euros! Even the soket to interface on the flashes is homemade.
Here the FPGA controller is just used for the tests. Later the full function will be integrated into my normal controller or a few AVR controllers.
For the connection details see: www.flickr.com/photos/fotoopa_hs/3715377259/
for the timing values see:www.flickr.com/photos/fotoopa_hs/3709381751/in/photostream/
Holga 6x12cm 120WPC Bedroom Flash Photo
Image by Jarvist Frost
Holga 120WPC, slightly modified to reduce vignetting, improve light tightness, not scratch film etc.
~50 full power flashes from Vivitar 283 (manually fired). Flash got very hot + started smelling a bit wrong after 40 flashes, so I swapped to a new one.
Big Self-portrait flash was approx 25cm away, I think it was literally on the other side of the camera (out of field of view), the angle is so wide.
Kodak TMax100 film, developed in TMax 1+4 8min @ 20C, agitate every 30s as instructions. Refixed after washing as didn't seem clear.
Incidentally, this seemed to use 480mAh of current from the eneloops rechargeables (based on how much it took to recharge them), suggesting that you'd get 200 full power flashes from a charged set.

"I've worked as a photographer for more than fifteen years and spent a lot of my time photographing flowers," David Ellwand recalls. "One day, after working with some calla lilies, I left them out without any water. They started to dry naturally, and I noticed how one of them resembled a small silk shirt. I then started to bend and shape the flowers and model them into items of clothing suggested by their organic shapes." The resulting "fairie clothes," fashioned as playthings for David Ellwand's then three-year-old daughter, caught the eye of a visiting editor from Candlewick Press. Before long an exquisitely designed, tongue-in-cheek catalog of fashions for fairies was in full flight.

Las Ramblas: Dragon and Umbrella Photo
Image by Carlos Lorenzo
Just in front of La Boqueria market and very close to the opera house El Liceu, on the façade of one of the art deco style buildings you find this magnificent dragon holding an enormous lamp in menacing attitude as if guarding the old umbrella shop shut down a long time ago. Besides the oversized fan on top, a curious umbrella keeps floating in the air as the reminder of old prosperous times for this trade.

Hermosa Beach Waves at Night (Redux)
Image by cobalt123
Beautiful ocean waves, seen at night and shot from the pier at Hermosa Beach with a point a shoot camera three years ago. Why have I uploaded this new version? For one, I have now learned more photo editing skills and it was great to re-visit this image and try it again. See the original from 2006 here. This redux version is higher res and uses a more blue cast, with levels, channels, curves and Gaussian blur to improve it.
Now, what called this to my attention? Well that would be a phone call from the New York Times asking if I could send along the image and original for a possible publication in a fashion article.
It took me hours to search through all the CD's I'd saved in back-ups to fine the original. This was before I had my external hard drives for back-ups. How did someone from the NYTimes find this image? The tags, and I am sort of a tag queen with flickr. The artist must have searched on "waves" and my image came up among thousands on flickr. Next, I had to wait weeks to learn whether the artist did decide on my image over other images to use in the layout.
For the rest of the story, see the next image...

About the Steve Nash Foundation
About the Foundation
Formed in 2001, given U.S. charitable status in 2004, and Canadian charitable status in 2007, the Steve Nash Foundation is a private foundation dedicated to assisting underserved children in their health, personal development, education and enjoyment of life. Like its NBA MVP founder, the Foundation is fast becoming a leader in assists . . . to a slightly shorter population.
Through our own initiatives, and through grants to public service and nonprofit entities in British Columbia, the Foundation aims to grow health in kids by funding projects that provide direct services to children affected by poverty, illness, abuse, or neglect, and create opportunity for education, health, and empowerment. We love the opportunity to get involved in the good work being done by child-focused ngo’s in our home province.
The Foundation also seeks to afford thoughtful solutions to community needs through our own projects to address critical health and education needs. The Foundation focuses its resources on underserved populations of children in British Columbia, Arizona, and the country of Paraguay. Equipping a neonatal intensive care ward in Asuncion to provide basic necessities for infants and their families, developing an early childhood education center of excellence to bring best practices to young kids that don’t always enjoy that access in Arizona, and uniting civic outreach, corporate and social service organizations to show kids how to get involved in their communities are examples of the daily work of the Foundation’s small but dedicated staff. Stemming from our first ever Steve Nash Foundation Charity Classic, held in Toronto, Ontario, in 2005, the Foundation is also working closely with the City to establish an all-access, all-kids after-school center there to build hope through hoops for kids.
While our work focuses exclusively on child welfare, we believe that corporations must share responsibility for the well-being of our communities. The Foundation employs and encourages environmentally-friendly office practices, and offers grantees assistance in developing their own recycling and energy conservation programs (check out our Green Leaf here). We also like to highlight the important work of other individuals and organizations, using our website links to increase their exposure, and contribute to their efforts. Further, we are proud to be working with young people that excel in their chosen fields, from whom we welcome energetic leadership and fresh voices.

Jasper Johns Flag
Image by eschipul
Jasper Johns Flag 1954-55
"One night I dreamed that I painted a large American flag," Johns said, "and the next morning I got up and I went out and bought the materials to begin it." Those materials included three canvases that he mounted on plywood, strips of newspaper, and encaustic paint - a mixture of pigment and molten wax that has formed a quivering surface of lumps and smears. The legible newspaper scraps beneath the tactile surface - some dating from 1955 and 1956, when Johns repaired the painting - lend the timeless, public icon historical specificity. While this image is something "the mind already knows," Johns acknowledged, its execution complicates the representation and invites close inspection. A critic of the time encapsulated this painting's ambivalence by asking, "Is this a flag or a painting?"

Large format week continues!
I think I really can't complain about this one. I was watching the cars to make sure I got complete trails from the headlights and taillights. I seem to recall I was hoping for a Max train as well...
As with all of these this is scanned using my incredibly crummy HP Scanjet 4010. This scanner only has a thin strip in the middle for 35mm. I made a moveable mask with a clear holder in it that lets me slide the 4x5 film past the narrow opening in steps. Four scans give me four overlapping strips which I combine with an ancient copy of Photoshop CS (the original CS) using the "Photomerge" feature. If you look too closely you can see a few artifacts. Given the ghetto equipment and techniques used I think it is a reasonable result. I'd love to see an actual good scan of this!
Upon reflection, I had another go at this one. The new version is here:

The Royal Yacht Britannia 25-05-2006
Image by Karen Roe
This magnificent ship has played host to some of the most famous people in the world. But, above all, she was home to Her Majesty The Queen and the Royal Family. Now in Edinburgh you are welcome on board to discover the heart and soul of this most special of royal residences.
The Royal Yacht Britannia is one of the world's most famous ships. Launched at John Brown's Shipyard in Clydebank in 1953, the Royal Yacht proudly served Queen and country for 44 years. During that time Britannia carried The Queen and the Royal Family on 968 official voyages, from the remotest regions of the South Seas to the deepest divides of Antarctica.
Britannia is now permanently moored in Edinburgh's historic port of Leith and visitors can discover what life was like on board the ship for the Royal Family and crew.
On 11 December 1997 Britannia was decommissioned and became a 5-star visitor attraction in Edinburgh after the city bid to become her new home and one of the UK's most prestigious hospitality venues.
