So I am driving, you know I do a lot of that. And for some reason I am on the 60 heading east. I don’t normally use that part of the 60, but i was. And all my life I can remember going to the Jurupa Culteral Center and I never noticed this Metal Dinosaur. I think it was the clouds behind. I loved the idea of the shot, but the out come did not look like I had wanted. The clouds had a smoggy tinge and the dirty look to them was not something I can remove in photoshop. I am love the idea of photoshop, but I tend to live in Aperature and shoot to stay there. Masking and such is just too much. I want to play with it, I just don’t want to play with it. I know that makes no sense, but if I was speaking the tone of that would have come through loud and clear. Here are a few out takes.

Thanks for looking.

Eliza decided to do a photo project as well this year for the PTA art contest. She captured this praying mantis and then we set it up for a shot. We put some leaves in a bucket and then the mantis on those leaves. We set up one of the modeling lights from my studio set and then we played with the color gels. In the end she went with the more natural one. It is a good thing that the lens I picked up a few months ago has a vibration compensation since it was an extream close up and Eliza does not have the steadiest hand. I think that they came out pretty cool.

Thanks for looking.

Here are some of the images that Hannah did with me for her project. We went into the Orange Groves with our friends and used three different flashes. One with red, one with blue and one with green gels.

I think these are really cool. Now I want to try to get some shots like Troy did in his book, Night Vision: The Art of Urban Exploration.

I really like the work that guys like Troy Pavia has done with colored gels and hand held flashes and flashlights. He uses full moons and long exposures to get some of these cool images. This is my first attempt. I tried under the trampoline and the second story of our house. My oldest daughter stayed up to do this with me so that we could try it out for her school art project. She got the fun job of firing the flash about 60 times to paint the area under the trampoline and in my bedroom and bathroom.

I think these came out cool.

I have mentioned in the past that I have a bit of a bike addiction. My girls are being well groomed to carry on the tradition. There is just something so cool about the smooth and efficiant form of a bike. They put out what you put into them. That is weather you build them or ride them. Here are some pics we took when the studio lights were set up in the garage.

Cool House Just Outside of Joshua Tree, originally uploaded by SoLostAndFound / Bill Lindsay.

I went to see the Doctors that I call on in Yucca Valley. There are only two, and they were in a meeting. It is pretty remote, so I tooled around waiting for them to finish so I could see them. Yucca Valley is right by Joshua Tree National Park. As I was driving up to see the park, I was surprised by the house that I saw, they were really cool houses. Here are a few. I wonder if you can rent them, it would be fun to stay there and then be close to explore the park early and late….

As I went to Needles the other day, I was running late, so I came back by Vidal when the sun was setting. Here are the pics I took as I revisited the abandoned service station in Vidal California.

This Picture is an chair that was out front. I did not pack a flash, so I turned the car headlights on to illuminate the chair instead of silouet it agains the setting sunlit sky. I think it came out pretty cool.

Here are a few other pics that I took as well.
