Droplet

I've been trying to capture droplets for the longes time, but I seem to have difficulty with them. I think this is the best I've done so far, but still a lot of room for improvement.

Relatives?

I was at the Farmers' Market one Saturday and ran into my friend Sam who was manning his biodiesel booth. Next to his stall was a person selling knitted hats. When I saw this reflection in the mirror, I couldn't help thinking how similar Sam and the mannequin head looked.

Thank you Mr. Edison

Sometimes the most ordinary things in your house can make a pretty interesting photo.

Playing with lighting

I just started playing with a light box for product shots. I built the light box with instructions from the Strobist Blog and shot this with absolutely no prepping whatsoever. I didn't even clean the lens before I shot the pic!
I have no idea what kind of flower this is, but it's about 10 times smaller than it appears in the photo. They grow kind of like moss on rocks. I got this shot at a beach in Mill Bay. I took the shot from a distance of about 2 or three inches.

Big


You had to be a fool not to notice the wonderful cloud formations we had here on April Fool's day. I caught this shot in Mill Bay, BC, looking east toward the BC Gulf Islands and Washington's San Juan Islands. There's a bit of barrel distortion from the ultra-wide angle lens, but I sitll like the shot.
