Fish, you have some very unusual (in a good way) images. Terrific compositions! :)


All that I can say.... I would hate to have to string that more than a 12 string... and I really hate restringing a 12 string guitar... :)

I use this method for string changes. I believe Taylor modified a Black & Decker cordless screwdriver to rotate faster than normal.

They are using a D'Addario TurboTune Peg Winder. The winder is made to be taken apart into two pieces. One of the pieces has a metal bit which can be inserted into a cordless screw driver.

I don't want to hijack Fish's thread so please don't respond to my comment here. ;)

That is quite impressive. i never thought of doing something like that. Very cool. I struggle with playing now days. My fingers go numb and it is hard to hold onto a pick. But I try now and than. Stringing the guitar has been a lot harder... that would help.

Every day I drive to work I pass by this tiny taco stand and every time I do, something about it has made me want to stop and photograph it. Today, a bright pink and white umbrella, caught by the wind and tilting wildly, caught my eye and convinced me to pull over and take this shot.

Product photography is not really my thing but one of the students at the college asked if I'd take some shots of some of their glass pieces that have sold and I agreed. So, the gorgeous glass fish you see in this shot is Dominic's handiwork, I just took the shot. If the name rings a bell with you be remembering Dominic posed for me some while ago.

An interesting snapshot, though :)

I have been away from your thread for a little while, but is was really a joy to catch up. I have to say thatI really enjoy your photos. Your colors in particular are really working for me! :)

What do you do when you're day is full from the moment you get up into late into the evening; when there's company at home, you still haven't done your shot for your 365 and hours to get a shot are rapidly disappearing? What DO you do??! You get creative... FAST. And you pray to the Heathen Gods of All Things Photographic your little experiment yields something you're not going to be totally embarrassed of. At least... That's what I do.
