Day 352

by on Oct.03, 2010, under project 365

The story for this one better be a good one. And I have it. Yup. Hang on, it’s right here. It’s coming.

Um…

um…

Nope. I don’t have it. I had to get away with a picture today. I did use an off camera flash, though. Maybe the story is below the picture. Have you ever looked there? Sometimes there something below the picture. Go look.

Ha ha! Tricked ya… Nothing here. See?! And it’s not even trick or treating yet (whatever that is… ?) Now go play with your legos.

Day 334

by on Sep.15, 2010, under project 365

I got inspired by Maciek again. I also realized that it’s almost impossible to get an image like his, without a bit of post production. I wanted to make more images with fruits in water, and probably more will come. I like the way this one turned out, especially that I only used Lightroom to process it. Granted Lr had to do some heavy lifting but nothing that the program couldn’t handle. Initially I only wanted a grape. Then, after trying a few times and realizing it is hard to get them out because I had to dump the water and didn’t want to leave fingerprints on the vase, I let them all in. “I ate some…” – Forrest Gump, about the box of chocolates.


Lighting info: 580 EX x2 via PW CR and CL with red and blue gels, pointed at white paper behind the vase. I radically changed the color balance in Lr, which wiped out the blue. The rest you need to figure out on your own.

Day 319

by on Aug.31, 2010, under project 365

One of the things I’ve learned while working on this project is that it’s not always simple to create simple things, but there is something that rings true in “less is more” and people like simple things. I like simple things. I’m not going to explain how I made this, not because it’s a secret but because I don’t think it matters. Enjoy Day 319. Thanks for coming.
