Faceman Photography: BMW Radar Detector Hardwire
http://faceman-photography.blogspot.com/2009/09/bmw-radar-detector-hardwire.html
Sunday, September 6, 2009. BMW Radar Detector Hardwire. Well, this post has nothing to do with photography (although that shot above is. A shot I took of my new vehicle), but I thought I'd post some shots and description of how I hardwired a Cobra radar detector. Into my BMW 335i Coupe. Hardwiring it in while improving the aesthetics creates its own challenges. I especially did not want to do any warranty-voiding mods on my new ride. Here's one solution, inspired by this guy's approach. They come in both...

Faceman Photography: Better "Dark Frame" Subtraction in Photoshop
http://faceman-photography.blogspot.com/2007/04/better-dark-frame-subtraction-in.html
Saturday, April 14, 2007. Better "Dark Frame" Subtraction in Photoshop. Night photography brings with it a number of unique challenges (not the least of which is tripping over your gear in the dark), but one such nuisance are so-called "hot pixels." Hot pixels are the bane of any. Long exposure digital photography, including night photography. For the sensor noise and hot pixels. Some cameras, in fact, do this automatically for exposures beyond a certain length. [Note: you don't put the lens cap ...What ...

Faceman Photography: DIY Light Probes and Cheetah 3D
http://faceman-photography.blogspot.com/2007/11/diy-light-probes-and-cheetah-3d.html
Saturday, November 3, 2007. DIY Light Probes and Cheetah 3D. Well, I recently came across a terrific 3D app for Mac OS X called Cheetah 3D. I'm still playing with the demo mode, but I've long been intrigued with a rendering technique called image-based lighting. Where a "light probe" image is used to render ultra-realistic lighting of a 3D model. Cheetah 3D supports image-based lighting with light probes so I thought I'd check it out. 1) Mount the light probe on a stick and place it in the scene. Her...

Faceman Photography: Slow Motion Video with the Canon 7D (or 5D Mk II) for FREE.
http://faceman-photography.blogspot.com/2010/04/slow-motion-video-with-canon-7d-or-5d.html
Saturday, April 17, 2010. Slow Motion Video with the Canon 7D (or 5D Mk II) for FREE. Slow motion video from the new DSLRs like the Canon 7D. And the Canon 5D MkII. Is possible using the cameras' 60fps mode to capture and then playing it back at either 24fps (film speed) or 30fps. The problem for me, though, was find an inexpensive and simple way to do that conversion on my Mac. If possible, I didn't want to have to use After Effects. Or Final Cut Pro. And install the app. 4) From the dialog box that pop...

Faceman Photography: March 2007
http://faceman-photography.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 14, 2007. Gel Mod for Quantaray MS-1 Slave Flash. I recently was given a couple of Quantaray MS-1. Flash boosters. If you haven't seen them, they're basically simple, dirt-cheap, optically-triggered slaves. (See Steve's Digicams for a nice review. Of this item) Anyway, I wanted a simple way to add colored gel effects to these slaves without ruining the slaves in the process. This is the $19.95 Quantaray MS-1 slave flash. Here a piece of Crystalite Polycarbonate (better than Plexiglas, no...

Botulinum toxin type A) from Allergan is used for much more than just wrinkles. For many years, and long before it was approved for cosmetic use, Botox was and is used for the treatment of muscle tension disorders. Prominent among these are its use in a vocal cord disorder called spasmodic dysphonia. And for a neck muscle disorder called cervical dystonia.
