cornfu > day 131: "right eye dominate". i shot some quick photos of yet another abandoned company off of exit 19 on 295 but wasn't feeling the results. then i got the spark to do some eye shots combining my kids. what a pain in the butt to get a clean, crisp shot using the macro when aiming at 2 giggling kids. i had some almost crisp shots of my daughter's brown eye against my son's gray/blue eye but favored the one where my daughter is breaking into laughter and my son is getting ready to break... you can see it in his eye! i will revisit this shot in the future.
cornfu > day 37: for this shot i threw a comforter on the floor and placed my sleeping daughter on the blanket. then i stood up on a chair and shot down. for lighting i had a small florescent lamp facing her back and then i bounced an off camera flash off the ceiling. after that i found a cool set of angel wing brushes for photoshop and added them in on a new layer set to multiply and cranked down to 80%
cornfu > day 338: "tracking a day". a friend passed along a free program that records your mouse movements graphically. shown as an overlay above is a recording of about 6 hours of work today. the longer the mouse stays still the larger the black spot. the large black circle seen at the bottom left of the photo represents my lunch break today. all the lines represent the movement of the mouse on screen. if i can remember the application i will post the link here later. it is cool to see your day tracked out graphically!

UPDATE: the link to the application is here or google mousepath.jar.
cornfu > day 47: today's photo is of a sculpture i did and of some blanks i made from a mold. the original was sculpted with super sculpey. the one in the front i painted with some basic acrylic. i have a halogen light backlighting it and i used a standard flashlight from the front. the wife saw this shot and said it "looks like they just got busted". i suppose so.
cornfu > day 152: "any MORE stupid questions?"
cornfu > day 142: "tatooine". trying to break the slump of standard shots. i decided to do some compositing with photoshop. of course my son thought this was great! photo'd my boy and the droids in the same angle of sunlight and did some post work to make it look blown out alien desert-style! now my other kids want in on the action!
cornfu > day 313: "day dreamer". taken at agape baptist church in mebane, nc.
cornfu > day 201: happy labor day! my poor attempt at imitating the "rosie the riveter" poster (produced by Westinghouse for the War Production, created by J. Howard Miller). i was going to use the same color scheme of yellow background and blue overalls but was lazy on labor day! not to mention the overalls that i have are olive drab and about 10 sizes too big for my daughter. for the lapel i faked a westinghouse electric service badge. the work badges had a photo of that employee and a four digit i.d. number.
cornfu > day 302: yet another zombie picture.
