Refraction revisited

Adam and I gave homework to our photography students last Monday. One of the shot assignments was refraction. Adam and I will be taking our shots as well. Here is my setup and my shot. I will do this again and try another setup. Our part 2 class is on Tue. We will introduce Photoshop along with review of photography ins and outs.

Pentax 540 camera left at 1/16 power and cannon 420 at 24.mm camera right.

First day of soccer

This shot of the pink bycycle would make my daugher envious of the transportation. A basket of flowers, a horn, and the color pink would send her over the top.

We attended her first Soccer practice and I think we found her passion. Joy for all.

One thing teachers can't live w/o

Coffee. My wife is a walking advertisement. We both had a long day today. Tomorrow is Friday and we will use the weekend for a restful re-cooperation. Shot with the fisheye and a 30 second exposure. If you look close you can see the knob of the door behind me in the middle of my forehead.

Demands attention

WOW. Naomi the swim instuctor who must be all of 21 has these 5 year olds rapped around her finger. Do any of these gals even darn take their eyes off the instructor in fear of being tossed from the pool. I think not!!! She did a great job with these kids and from what I hear has come a long way with intruction....good for you girl!!!!! We as parents think so highly of the Federal Way swim porgram and how they progress through the different stages of lessons. We need more time in the week to continue. Soccer is next.

70-200 and the 2nd shot is with my fisheye lens. This lens was used in the pool shot above. I love the zoom to f-stop ratio.

Blue and Red

Playing with off camera lighting tonight. Here is the result of the shot along with the setup. My homemade gobos with pocketwizards and pentax 540's I also did my 7th day of my 17 days of fisheye.

My fisheye shot was of the stairs.

Rose and Adam

Using my fisheye I walked around taking shots of the participants. Here I have Adam my partner in crime talking technique to Roselee, my fellow pentaxian. We kicked off the first ever Once upon a photo, a DSLR/Photoshop/project based class. I added a bit of lens vignette to my shot.
