true, but that means one of you has to move. Tell her you have an important scientific experiment going on and can't move.

ever tried this on a growing plant? or leaves coming onto a tree? or is it more of a bright light thing?

Your grow lights are pretty bright and this could be entered into evidence...

Hey footfootfoot, did you send me a camera (I forgot all about this project)?

I'm the her of the two of us and make less money than him so on my own can't afford the rent on my own on the current place. I've already got a place (hey, maybe a new can camera when I send this one back and I can call it New Beginning).

Well this particular film is so slow, that it is only a bright light kind of thing. but with regular film, you could do stuff with leaves/ time lapse etc.

There was an artist who sowed a seedbed with grass seed (indoors, darkroom) and tehn projected a negative onto the seedbed. The areas that got light, germinated and grew. The grass grew relative to how much light it got so there was a 3D grass photograph. A photograss? anyway, it sounded cool, I never saw it.

Limey, I still haven't sent one yet, but I will soon. Been wicked busy.

I'll post more later.

OK, sorry I'm really pressed for time this week, but I wanted to get these two up. lookout and xob.

I'll reply to other Q's asap. chat amongst yourselves...

Promenea · 03-22-2005, 08:58 PM

Okay, I'm glad i tilted mine up as much as I did. Hope I got it so that it got the full arch. Last day tomorrow and then I send it on back for a 28 day count. 3 sundays followed by 25 days continuous open.

xoxoxoBruce · 03-23-2005, 03:53 PM

I was afraid I'd screwed that up. I was right.
Oh...I know...It's 3foot's fault. He didn't make it idiot proof.

Undertoad · 03-23-2005, 04:12 PM

Didn't his directions include waiting for the midday sun, and looking directly at it for a minute or so to get the right angle?

Happy Monkey · 03-23-2005, 04:22 PM

You could put a paper towel tube on top of the camera, pointing in the same direction as the pinhole, and block the back end with white paper. At noon, aim the camera so the white paper glows, and fix it in that position.

That way, noon of that day will be centered. I'm not sure whether that's low enough to catch the horizon as well, though.

This gets trickier as the zenith of the sun gets rapidly higher as it approaches Summer Solstice...

lookout123 · 03-23-2005, 06:03 PM

you've got to be EFFING kidding me!

i even had it sitting on top of a fence tilted up. obviously not high enough though. anyway, this is actually reversed. the sun streaks that did show up are to the west in reality.

Promenea · 03-24-2005, 05:03 PM

Well it is going to be interesting with mine since we've had snow for lots of the time and snow should really brighten the whole picture I would think.

Yes, the image is reversed.
