No user-serviceable parts inside: December 2014
http://blog.brucemwalker.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
No user-serviceable parts inside. Or outside, either. Sunday, December 28, 2014. Santa was good to me. I've been needing to upgrade a few bits of gear moving into the new year, so I appealed to Santa and was rewarded with a new iMac and five boxes of Paul C Buff lighting stuff. Here's me sitting in my (messy) office illuminated by a 22 inch beauty dish fitted with a 15 degree grid mounted on an Einstein 640 strobe. The grid does a fine job of tightly controlling the beam spread. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sunday, February 09, 2014. Effective Rim Lighting on a Budget. Outlining (is) the requirement. So I thought about what I could do to get the cost down and still achieve the look I wanted. Well first of all, I needed a couple of extra light sources. Since I still needed to front-light my subject, that meant I would n...

No user-serviceable parts inside. Or outside, either. Saturday, October 11, 2014. Downgrade for a better phone! I bought an Android smartphone in the spring when my ancient dumb phone finally expired. (The battery physically expanded until the back cover couldn't be attached, and it held less than a day's charge.) But as usual I went the cheapest possible route: a pay-as-you-go top-up "plan" with an out-of-date almost free phone. Lesson learned: under no circumstances am I to update any apps. I have ...
