An ordinary walk through the night forest turned into an owl spotting. There was at least five barn owls chattering and having a hoot time… but I had only the ultrawide lens with me and no flash, so today I can’t show you any birds. However, I took my tripod for a walk, so at least you can see me (my headlamp to be exact) making friends with these magnificent creatures.
Made a new “brush” for my light painting experiments. The best opportunity to test it? Of course, Margaret’s daily jumping project! And here I am, checking the key light, wondering why it didn’t fire the last time… Probably even throwing some strong words at the poor thing. Bam! Epic selfie. Share this post: Share on…
Went to take a closer look at the owl congregation that I’ve discovered yesterday and… witnessed the tawny owl stealing a rat from the hawk owl. Caught it on camera using the vintage Soviet era manual focus lens and a cheap flash. Share this post: Share on Facebook Share on X (Twitter) Share on Pinterest…
Ever since I started creating bokehramas (using a technique called “Brenizer Effect“), I’ve been pushing the limits of this already optically impossible genre. Gigapixel stitch with over 250 tiles? Check. Multi-tile portraits where one subject is split among dozen tiles? Check. Environmental portrait indoors with zero nodal shift? Check. HDR bokehrama? Check. List goes on…
This is an impromptu semi-candid shot for Margaret’s daily jumping project. She texted me that her trolleybus is approaching our stop, so I wrote back that she should jump from a rearmost door facing backwards. Of course I meant backwards in a relation to the prior course of that trolleybus… but what actually happened works…
Two professional photographers got married… And shot a selfie for posterity.
Today Margaret managed to jump especially high, all the while I’ve spent most of the day onboard my spaceship, studying the influence of prominent peripheral objects on a polar warped panoramas… In short, goofing around again :) Share this post: Share on Facebook Share on X (Twitter) Share on Pinterest Share on LinkedIn Share on…
