The Beach Lion in its Natural Habitat
While walking the beach this morning, I encountered an elusive Beach Lion.
Beach Lion in its Natural Habitat
It seemed like a perfect thing to create some amusing, special images.
Beach Lion with Green Flower
Beach Lion with Multicolor Flower
These were made using the multiple exposure feature of the Nikon D500, and an older Nikon Micro-NIKKOR 55mm f/2.8 AI-s. In my tiny studio, the Beach Lion was propped upon a small black pedestal with a black cloth. The flowers were individual little cuttings, sitting upon the same black cloth. A single Lowepro light was used to light the items.

Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day Alternates
As the title states...
No Holds Barred
Quite Realistic
Peering into the portal
This is from the second roll exposed on Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day, 2017. This is the play set near the house. As mentioned previously, a 120 roll of film, in this case Arista EDU 100, will hold four 6 by 17cm images. Medium format film has several sets of numbers printed on the paper backing. When the film is loaded, the film is advanced to a printed number that appears through a little red window. Different brands have markings that, in some cases, are easier to see. The first time using a new brand, the start of the film can be missed - as was the case here. Thus, three images - as I started with the second space. The dark window on the Omniscope made it tough to see the start. Anyway, I was very happy with these images - any of them would have been fine for the WPPD exhibit.

Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day 2017 - The Alternates
For Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day, I made seven exposures with the Omniscope. The Omniscope produces four 6 x 17cm (58 x 172mm - approximate size) images on each roll of film, in this case Kodak T-Max. Here are the other three images from the bridge site. Another set of images, from another site, will be scanned later.
Zoom...
It's hard to tell if you don't know about it - there is a faint arcing streak that follows the contour of the sharply curved road - it is the motion blur of a passing car. Look at the peak of the curved roadbed, and follow to the left - a slight white streak.

still rocking

You can get anything...
I'd posted the phone camera image of this some time ago - here is the result from the Speed Graphic. And yes, I continue to listen to the 60s on 6 despite the risk of getting a song stuck in my head.
...if you go ask Alice
There are, of course, two great songs to ponder here.
Timeless Elegance...
It seemed appropriate to drag my 60-something year old Speed Graphic to this event. This was at the Marvel of Flight Fly In and Expo.

Scrutiny
Part of the Visionaries: Creating a Modern Guggenheim exhibit - Jackson Pollock's Alchemy has been restored. It is behind glass. An excellent article about the restoration can be found here: Restoration of "Alchemy" reveals the truth about Jackson Pollock.
