And you haven´t posted it in the gallery?????? :blink: This shot is gorgeous Kai. The composition is just brilliant. This is one flower-shot i think we all would be pretty damn proud to have in our gallery....shame on you for holding out on us.

/me slaps kai... dude - just clean up those grainy bits (pollen?) and you have a stunner of a shot there with that flower :)

on the subject of babies and viscosity - i have thought on occasion of doing a dog doodie series... a challenge so to speak... try to take an artistic shot of something which is just not your classic subject matter :)

There´s a kids-show on TV here in Sweden called "Guess the poop"......they go out into the woods and film different kinds of droppings and they let the viewer guess what animal is responsible for leaving it. So i feel i have the proper competense to participate in that challenge. :tt2: And as you can see Kai....not everything is wonderful and full of glamour when it comes to Sweden and it´s culture....you may wanna reconsider changing your nationality. :biggrin:

no I still wanna be Swedish buddy! :tt2: Oh Papa did you hear about the english people and the McFlurry slut there in Sweden :lol:

well St Andrews is rather clean when it comes to that sort of thing so it might be a bit difficult... also can you imagine the looks you would get if you were on your knees or even prone with camera in hand taking a picture of dog poop?!?

hmmm well dont know about other places in the world but when people walk the dogs here they carry a plastic bags and pick it up and take it home with them :blink: cause the will get fined if they dont :unsure: (why I dont want a dog here LOL)

yeah - same here... tho' if you ever go to madrid and venture off the beaten track: never look up!... you will inevitably stand in some...

Damn you Kai. That shot is also beautiful!!!! :blink:
And no i didn´t hear about any McFlurry slut....although now i´m intrigued, lol. 
Here people also have to pick up after their dogs if they´re out in public walking them. But since i live out on the countryside i just let Eija roam free during our walks across fields and in the woods. And she actually eats all the poop she comes across....horse-poop....cow-poop....bird-poop is her favorite....and so on. So i´m sure she cleans up more poop than she herself "releases" :mellow:

ok this is a bit of a copy and paste for ya:

McDonald’s, Härnösand
Två killar ~25, som verkar vara engelsmän, står och ska beställa glass. På skylten står det “McFlurry” och en lapp framför visar att produkten är slut. Kille 1 (småfnissandes): Hello, I would like a McFlurry Slut! Kassörskan (ser helt förvirrad ut): …Eeeh, it is over. It is not in! Killarna förstår ingenting och tror fortfarande att de [...]

GUESS THE POOOOOP! LOL! :biggrin:

And LMAO! That story Kai....hahahaha!!!! Härnösand is actually close to home for me...only 45 min by car. I didn´t even know that small town had a MacDonalds. :huh:

Good morning there Kort I see you have come at an interesting time of this thread :lol: And dare I say cute shot there? :unsure: Oh and yeah rich... pretty cool how he's looking at ya like that though :tongue2:

IR McDonalds? hmmm that reminds me of IR baboon (cartoon) lol :rolleyes: cool effect though buddy! I'm gonna get it one day though

McDonald....sigh...and i said MacDonald. I don´t eat there nearly as often as i should appareantly......

you pay an arm an a leg for that stuff and it's all junk AND you hardly get any food :cursing:

Weird drop shot. Looks like a bird dropping instead.
Chris

OMg fancy posting a photo of your child on a potty. She will kill you Kort when older.
Lovely shots Kai. But agree with Rich about pollen cleanup. And Andreas i love the model photo that shows her eyes the most. Very striking. Sorry she was a witch. She come with a broom?
Chris

Simple is beautiful here..lovely shot. 

Psssst.....Chris.....that´s actually a cat. Not a bunny.  

Love those flower-shots btw. Lighttent i presume. Beautiful indeed.

Yeah just got the light tents and havent used yet, so want to play around with it a little. Dont expect too see any frogs in it anyway.lol. People love frangipani prints. So go where the money is. Also want to have a go at a couple of drop shots. Any advice King Drop.hehe
Chris

Hey Tom do you deliver easter eggs too?
Chris

INdeed it does. That,s the bottom of it.

Very Cute Kai. Why cant they make light tents easy to put up. OMG.
Chris

I don't know.... care to enlighten us? :lol: ok I'm off for class now :m_bouncy:

Easy to put up? How about folding it back up? It's like rubik's cube. I gave up after 15 minutes. Grrrr!

Great posts everyone! Sorry I don't have time now to go back over them all and single any out

See ya!

Yeah worked it out but wow not looking forward to trying to slip it back into little case. WOW. Hey about time you went to class Kai. Hope to have some images for you when you come back little bro. Hi Marlene.
Chris

Yeah i couldn´t agree more with Marlene. I never got mine to fold back either. It´s now sitting in our guestroom, taking up waaaay more space than it should. I never should have taken it out of that little case. :sad:

"second cut" is what I call this play image.   I am playing with low light for an attempt at the still life genre thing.   Might get it done!  That image will not be recognizable as from the same hands...totally different set used for that.

Andreas, the wood gouge is Sweeeeedish!   The best.     Tom.

Chris, what light tent do you use?   Tom.

Yay I'm sitting in class here.... Pics loook soooooo much better on these macs though I'm getting pretty bored :m_scared:

**Um you should be listening in class Kai. Even though i think you know most of it.
Tom i bought a kit. MASSIVE 48"&24" Studio Cube Photo Light Tent & LIGHTING
I didnt use lighting today though just tent and flash. Just experimenting with angles of my external flash etc.
 
Kai and Andreas i want to try dropshots later. Is it best with room darken? How do i get images in drops? Please help oh wise ones.
Chris:)
**

I cant do the images in them ones but ahhh yeah I normally find it best to use a dark room.... but that's only me and ya know I'm strange :rolleyes:

Well two pages while I slept! Kai, your first bloom is stunning, the colour is amazing! I love the lonely tree clining to the hillside, the last flower is quite interesting agaist the blue like that and the water shot is terrific. Post any or all! Chris I love your flowers as well, I realize you are experimenting,but they are quite lovely, especailly the first, the bloom all covered in dew looks so delicate and fragile. Kort, I have potty shots of all my kids and Mullaney as well, the cruelest thing we do to our kids. I love the McD shot, the vegatation looks ike snow piled up outside. Glad to see you'll not let one rude narcissistic witch ruin your model shoots Andreas, send her a broom! Have a lovely day all, back to back Overnights until Wednesday!
BJ

Here is one of mine from a long time ago... it is an "outtake" from what has become my most favourited/viewed shot in my gallery: "The Space... the connection..."

Shameless plug but hey they are both the same subject...

Anyway - i'm going back home for a week now, so i wont be around as much here or in the galleries... have a good one!

Both photos are lovely Rich. Enjoy your trip. BJ

Kai, I thought the starving underlined was a link to more of your stuff, if it is I can't get it to work. BJ
