News of the destruction of my room in Perth was a bit overstated. Apparently, carpets were wet, and there was very little water damage, so I think the guitars and the camera gear and Beta Masters survived. Still have to be there to confirm this for myself, but the news is promising.
Anyway, today's shot is of a gun, a toy one... duh, like I would really show you a real gun. I think the not wanting to show a real gun, stems from years of working in advertising in Singapore. And showing a gun in an ad is a definite no no.
Flash through softbox at 1/32 power just out of shot. See you tomorrow.

Wow it's been a long weekend, and not in a good way... OK violins.
Back to today's shot. These are my favourite pair of shoes, they look like football boots, but they are actually sneakers... wow I hear you say.
Today's shot was a simple setup. Shoes on my Djembe, propped up by a few of my paint tubs. Flash was set to 1/16 power, camera left through a softbox about 4 feet away. More tomorrow.

Today's post is inspired by all the talk of ACDC that's been going around since Thursday. So I whipped out the Les Paul Custom Special, set the camera at the headstock, focused it around the 9th fret, set the flash with softbox to 1/16th power to the right of the camera about 4 feet away, and clicked. 23 shots later, viola!
It just reminds me of those music videos where they attached a camera to the headstock, in fact didn't they do that for Thunderstruck?

Here we go. Today's a simple one, lighting with a softbox above my little Djembe. The drum is about 8cm in diameter and 15cm high, and it's a gift from where I work.
Anyway that's it for today, I know it's a short one, but you know what, I really like the little light above the drum... sweet.

People this is noontec, noontec these are people... ok done with the pleasantries. This is the remote control to my new noontec media player. It has LAN, all the stick in usb, media card thingys, and once I stick a hard disk in there, it'll record as well. How cool is that? And all this for under $100. Thanks Zazz, and thanks Mitch for introducing me to them (and sorry I didn't get your solar-powered ipod charger, it took a while to sign up).
I know this shot is a bit "adverty", but that's what I do in my day job, and you know, sometimes I can't help but bring my work home. But thanks to a white bed sheet, a freshly cleaned table, a kick-ass flash and some photoshop, it looks pretty pristine.
That's it for today, I have to get back to my new friend. New episode of Fringe is on.
