Home made remedies... by ttstam

Home made remedies...

Rachel's sick, so I've made some home-made remedies. I hate seeing loved ones sick, and I imagine it must be a lot worse with a sick kid (one day, if I get to have kids, etc).

(And, yes, I'm uploading this here so she knows what's what in the morning when she wakes up... yes, we are geeks.)

Ginger honey lemon green tea - good for upset stomach, sore throat, and immune boost.
Jello - for sore throat
Ginger honey brew - upset stomach

Bleh, it's waaaay past my bed time. At least we'll probably be sleeping in, and probably just taking it easy at my place. No early morning Sunday market walk / security escort duty. Yaaaay. :-)

Quick proof of concept in Photoshop

Years ago, DaveM had a bad date where his canoe flipped in Lake Washington and sent a paycheck's worth of electronics into the duck-poop infested water. Among his possessions he lost that day was his Sony F717 camera. He gave the remains to me in return for giving him and his date a ride home, and ... well, I finally did something with it :)

Quick proof of concept in Photoshop. Shot by Rachel on her 5D Mk ii with my pride and joy and rather rare Medical Nikkor 200mm f/5.6, on a NikkorF -> EOS adapter.

Thirsty? by ttstam

Thirsty?

We were originally going to shoot some cream puffs in a Seattle sculpture, but my sweetie and I ran out of time, and decided to shoot the some fizzy lemonade instead.

Brightened the image and hit the Velvia slider. Much better.

A preview from tonight's inaugural shoot in the TwinGeeks Photo Studio (aka, my garage). This was a quick food and drinks shot to test my dark field lighting setup.

Dad had already went to bed, and since I'm the designated driver driving Rachel home after our "dinner and a photoshoot" date, we opted for organic sparkling lemonade instead of beer for the shot . Although, I have to admit, beer would look FANTASTIC shot this way.

The green you see is my girlfriend's T-Shirt.

Strobist:
Darkfield Light:580EX M1/1 into white foamcore, for darkfield light source, goboed by a leftover scrap of black mat board from my framing work.
Under Light: Nikon SB-24 M1/2 firing through kitchen towels slung under a piece of acrylic, clamped to two saw horses. 4 strips of black leftover mats formed a gobo for the light to shine through. The glass sits right on this window.

Tripoded camera (EF100mm macro on 5D Mk II), prefocused. Rachel poured the drink and I fired the camera. Strobes fired by PocketWizard system components.

1/160 sec f/8.0 ISO400
