Being quite tired (see yesterday) after talking, laughing and playing a lot at our friends house we walked over the fun fair today. My shoes were not warm enough, so a fire and wool socks (I almost never wear wool socks, just for art) can be a mans relief.

This shot was harder than a thaught it would be. It is a mixture of slow shutter and flash, me having my tripod on my stomach etc.

Light: 580EX 1/16 power, 24mm in a 60cm grided softbox from 4:30,
SB26 with 1,5 CTS 1/64 power, 24mm from under my feet (slightly grilled)
skyport and optical trigger

Say no to drugs…
We are spending the night with our friends playing boardgames and stuff. Then I asked Luccio and Janka to pose for me (don't worry, they don't smoke shisha … - but the thing was standing around for the beauty of it…) - so here they are to warn our and their children :-))

Michèle (a stranger) modeled for me at my usual friday busstop after she had sold a lot of bread as a substitute vendor today - she was on her way home.
Thank you for modeling. Send me a Email, if you want your picture.

I was looking for a different look today and shot with an orbis ringlight as key.

Post with a little bleach bypass and then glamour glow (nicks complete color correction).

Light: 580EX with ¼ CTS in a orbis, ETTL cable, and SB26, 1/64 power, 85mm from 2m high behind her @ 1:00, optical triggered

Räbeliechtliumzug - non translatable (turnip laterna procession). Pupils till secound class hollow out a turnip and carve ornaments into its skin. Then they stick a candle into it and the lid is held open with toothpics (see how they look like). They walk and sing after nightfall and get tea and a special bun at the end.
A nice possibility to make some pictures and this is our last Räbelichtliumzug - our kids are growing fast.

LIght: AL, 8sec, f8, Iso 400

I had a little bit of to much words the last few days - I gave a solution oriented conversation technic seminar with a college during the last thee days and am quite outpowered now. So thats how I feel write now, words are mixed up in my picture reflecting my brains condition. No photoshop was used, it is kind of out of cam (some aperture work).
I used my 17-40 lens with a retro-adapter and shot through this prism, the words are in the random paper from under the prism (a paper flying around on my desk).

Light: AL of desk lamp

One light setup! You can try, this will be a tough one to reconstruct. It's me, myself and eye with my small selfmade beautydish you might have met here.

Light: 580EX from above, ¼ power, 105mm, ¼ cts, scraping my head from behind 1:00, hitting a reflector bahind camera left high, reflecting into the minibeautydish, which is handheld with no light inside. The CD-ROM is like a mirror, reflecting the reflector on my dark side cheek.

Shot with even a edditional reflector here.
