Photography Blog No. 38

Sun Jun 8th, 2008 at 09:01:03 AM EST

Text moved below the fold. Weekend bump for the blog.

Next Friday's theme will be reflections - In Wales

O my Luve's like a red, red rose,
That's newly sprung in June:
O my Luve's like the melodie,
That's sweetly play'd in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a' the seas gang dry.

I penned that little ditty above in honor of today's special subject-"the color red." (Please excuse any spelling errors; my spell checker seems not to be working.)

And a tip of our collective hats to Sassafras, who has suggested many new "special subjects" for our weekly photoblog; yes we WILL change.

So, without any further B.S. on my part, happy posting!

Re: Photography Blog No. 38 (4.00 / 9)

Red is a color I rarely photograph. Now that I do a lot of video, red is even less seen on my palette because of the problems the NTSC standard has reproducing reds.

But surprisingly, when I looked through my collection for a photo with red in it, I found this picture. It is of--by FAR--the most difficult thing I ever built. It is the measuring device I created to allow me to build custom-sized seating. I actually got a USA patent for this. And I still have no idea why I chose red (or black lacquer or brass, for that matter.)

Re: Photography Blog No. 38 (4.00 / 8)

Yes.

The hydraulics power a frame that holds modules of various sizes and load-carrying capabilities (foam density and thickness). The modules can be easily swapped.

Once the measurements have been taken, a conventional-looking chair is produced from those measurements.

This project went bust in the recession of 1981-82. Perhaps this explains my undying hatred for Paul Volker and his monstrous economic ideas.

The whole explanation for how this works can be found can be seen at:

Just follow the links under the "Sitting Pretty" section. If you merely want to see the measuring chair in action:

There is almost no way to describe the pain that is caused when a perfectly good idea and thousands of hours of intense work is destroyed to "prove" the theories of right wing crackpots. I DETEST the monetarists. Ironically, Paul Volker at 200 cm would have been an ideal customer for this product. I hope his back is killing him.

Re: From estHer and my Nikon D-80- Part 1 (4.00 / 3)

I'm not a big believer in Feng Shui and I'll tell you why. In the early 1980's I was an investor in a Chinese restaurant in suburban D.C. with two Chinese-American partners. When we were building out one partner said " wait, my father's a Feng Shui Man; he has to approve the layout." So this old guy came and did his thing, gave us his blessing, and we opened. We then proceeded to lose huge amounts of money over the next several years. Not that I blame the Feng Shui Man; unbeknownst to me both of my partners were compulsive gamblers.
That, however, was my first and last experience with Feng Shui.

Re: Photography Blog No. 38 (4.00 / 4)

I've got a Yashica Mat LM from ebay for £50 and I have already plagued Colman with questions on how to get the shutter to work. I'm sure he'll be pleased to know that I got a reply from the seller and it is all to do with how you crank the film on, the winder has to be turned forward until it stops and then backwards until it stops to get the shutter release to work. Which not one manual mentioned. But, it seems to work now and I have a trashed film to practice developing with. And it is a lovely camera.

I've never touched one of these cameras before so I was clueless! Glad it seems to be fine now. I was slightly worried because although it was well packaged, when I picked it up from the depot, the bloke was in the foulest mood and slammed the parcel down really hard on the worktop. I thought it would all be in pieces when I opened it.

Re: Photography Blog No. 38 (4.00 / 2)

The camera can't expose correctly for the whole shot because it contains a dark section which you were focussing on (and appears to have been dominant in determining the exposure the camera chose) and a bright section. It can't get all of this in accurately so either the centre is exposed to see inside where the wasp is or the outside of the flower would be exposed correctly but inside the flower would look very dark.

If you want the outside of the flower to be the correct colour/exposure then try focussing on that first, keep the shutter button half depressed and recompose the shot (ie move the camera back so that the bee is in the centre again). Then press the shutter button fully.

It also depends how you are metering the scene in the camera (spot metering based on one point of the scene or matrix metering based on the average lighting across the whole shot) since this makes a difference in how the camera determines the correct exposure.

Re: Photography Blog No. 38 (4.00 / 2)

LEP,
Sorry to be so absent, but I've finally succumbed to the long-time urge for a full-size sensor, and am still reading the books on the D5- learning to really use the thing is a massive project for the glacially slow head I seem to have developed. Soon I will have something to offer, I hope.

There is a neat technique that can be done to deal with the problem of pictures like the bee-flower shot that demand dynamic range beyond the ability of a single frame to include. This sounds tough, but it's easier than it sounds.

1) Use a tripod, keep everything still(except the bee, who will surely not cooperate, but whose motion may not really matter).

2)Take two shots, one exposed for the central region with bee, and one exposed for the much brighter flower.
Copy them both.

3) Then shlep the copies into Photoshop, make two layers, and superimpose them.

Too long to explain the layering/opacity thing, but there are good tutorials on the adobe sight.

It's fun, once you get it.
