The Dish
Image by Sailor Coruscant
The Dish is essentially a thousand tonnes of metal, sitting above my head at this moment. Now, that wouldn’t be scary, but for the fact that it’s designed such that if something goes horribly horribly wrong, the counterweights would cause it to swing up and collapse the tower, rather than break off and roll away into the sunset.
Ah well, at least the music in here is worth it. *grins*

Just putting the dishes away before going to bed. Dishes are so much easier with a dishwasher. I’ve always hated doing them by hand.
The Ugly Beauty Dish
Image by jcoterhals
This photo is for Macrolensfan because he requested it on another photo of mine. The rest of this description will follow in Norwegian, simply because I don’t have the vocabulary to explain what this is all about.
Dette er altsÃ¥ en hjemmelaget beauty dish. Den er stygg som nøkken, og jobben med Ã¥ lage den var — i alle fall med de redskapene jeg eier — vanskeligere enn jeg hadde trodd. Anbefales altsÃ¥ ikke.
Men dette trenger du:
To metallskÃ¥ler fra IKEA – den største du kan finne (Ø40cm) og den minste (Ø10cm). Spikerslag og 4 skruer, 4 skiver og 4 muttere (alle Ø4mm).
Du trenger ogsÃ¥ et kraftig bor, et sett med kraftige metallbor, bÃ¥de Ø4mm og MINST Ø10mm — gjerne storre om du har. En automatkjørner (?) er ogsÃ¥ uvanlig nyttig, samt at du trenger en metallfil. En slik B-gjengen fikk levert i en kake i gamle Donald-blader.
Sprittusj.
1) Tegn omrisset av blitshodet ditt sentrert bakpå den store stålbollen. Vær raus når du tegner rundt, tro meg: Det er bedre om det blir noen millimeter for vidt enn for trangt.
2) Marker punkt å borre med ved å bruke kjørneren. Du må prikke mange ganger for at det i det hele tatt skal gi merke i dette stålet.
3) Bor tett i tett rundt hele markeringen, til du har stanset ut et blitsformet hull. Dette er lettere sagt en gjort. Er du hobbymekaniker har du sikkert langt mer egnede verktøy liggende og dette var det jeg hadde. Sluttresultatet ser slett ikke pent ut.
4) Bruk filen og puss og gnikk til alle eventuelle skarpe kanter er borte. Et tålmodighetsarbeid.
5) Marker to skruehull med Ø4-boret, ett over og ett under blitsåpningen. La det være ca 10mm avstand.
6) I den lille skålen, bor to hull på diagonalt motsatt side av hverandre, så langt opp mot kanten av skålen du kommer. Ø4-bor også her.
7) Kutt til to passende lenger av spikerslag. Dette skal være langt nok til at du kan skru det fast inn i bollen, og i sidene av den lille bollen. Men: Ta med 6-7 cm MER enn du strengt tatt trenger (dette for Ã¥ minimere nødvendigheten av Ã¥ bore to ekstra hull i lillebollen — da jeg kom sÃ¥ langt pep det i ørene mine, sÃ¥ jeg gjorde dette sÃ¥ hurtig og enkelt som mulig). Husk at det skal være ca 5cm eller mer avstand fra blitshodet til bunnen av lillebollen. Dette fordi at du ved Ã¥ brette spikerslagene ned og inn i lilleboillen, sÃ¥ holder du den fast i posisjon uten Ã¥ motte bore to nye hull og skru fast.
Prøv herligheten.
Når du har kommet så langt er den ikke ferdig. Du bør prøve å finne deler fra et gammelt kamera e.l., mer spesifikt en bunnplate med stativfeste som du kan skru fast i det som her ser ut som "bunnen" av beatydisken. Det for at du skal kunne feste greiene i et stativ e.l. Sikkert noen flere anordninger slik at blitsen er festet til skåla igjen osv.
Men du kommer aldri til å gjøre det, fordi:
1) 40cm er i grunnen ikke stor nok diameter annet enn for hode/skulder-portretter.Dette stålet suger til seg nok av lyset, til at det sluker mye av blitsens output-kraft. Så med mindre du drar opp ISO-følsomheten, så kan det ikke være rare avstanden fra beautydisken til det du faktisk tar bilde av. I og med at skålen konsentrerer lyset på sett og vis, blir ikke diameteren stor nok annet enn til tette portretter av den typen jeg snakker om her.
2) I ettertidens klarsyn ville jeg droppet hele ideen om stålboller og gått for slike engangs-salatboller i mykt aliminumsfolieaktig stoff, du vet slikt du får fra cateringselskaper eller a la Weber engangsdryppskåler du kan få kjøpt til grillen. En beauty dish av slikt stoff vil selvsagt bli ødelagt på en to tre, men så kan du jammen lage dem på en to tre også. Denne varianten her er bare stor, tung og jævlig upraktisk.
Med andre ord: Denne fremgangsmåten anbefaler jeg *ikke*

Pinzimonio-dish and Duo-dish
Image by Mammaoca2008
Variations on theme of my previous breadsticks-holder.
Pinzimonio-dish is suitable for purist and vegetarian (Pinzimonio – fresh seasonal raw or slightly blanched vegetables served with seasoned olive oil for dipping – from Wikipedia), made from a square of paper (nocutsnoglue)… central holder is intended for sauce the others for vegetables… using a waterproof material is advisable if you really intend to put the sauce
Duo-dish…. because as an hold italian slogan said "Two tastes is better than one"… a rectangl of paper was used but you really can do what you want… different size of paper will only change the propotions…. as the bread-sticks-holder both are foldable in a stripe, diagrams on the way
I wish you this week that healthy feeling that comes from eating fresh and uncooked fruts an vegetables Enjoy!

Now I have two satellite dishes 03.01.2008

It only took two weeks to get sick of Time Warner and our cable system at the house. So far Direct TV has worked pretty good. I noticed a lot of homes in my subdivision have Direct TV and two dishes. Must be normal.

While many things are still done by hand, modern technology is also used. In my neighbourhood many people have a satellite dish which enable them to watch international television.

Playing with a beauty dish

I just made a DIY beauty dish using a turkey pan, a ziploc bowl, and some aluminum foil. I cut a hole in both the pan and bowl to instert my flash into, and used the foil to reflect the light back into the pan. My wife was kind enough for me to sit in and help me test it. I have to say, I am pleased with the result. It won’t beat a professional dish, but for , it will work well in my home studio.

Matthew’s main job to help his Dad is to do the dishes. For this daily chore he’ll get a monthly subscription to World of Warcraft. Not a bad trade. Last night’s meal was home made Bengali style chicken with fried cauliflower and a family naan.
Washing Dishes
Image by locket479
This was an odd occurance–when the people on this street saw me holding a camera, instead of running in front of it and asking to have their picture taken, they all pointed to this beautiful woman washing dishes, and told me to take her picture. I did, and she gushed bashfully over all of the attention and excitement. She must have been somebody special to the neighbors for them to volunteer her like that!

DIY Beauty Dish-3
Image by foshydog
I had been meaning to post pics of my DIY beauty dish. I did the terra cotta bowl from home depot version. I used an old 50 cd-r spindle and then stuck a convex car mirror inside it. I used the gutter spout to attach the flash inside the beauty dish. A little bit of paint and it was finished. The hardest part was cutting the hole in the bottom of the terra cotta bowl. That took a while but I eventually got the right size.

Cynthia Vardhan Ceramics Dish Set
Image by *NEXT* design for your modern home
A set of ten small dishes with a variety of color bases and pigmented decoration and raised patterns. These dishes are often used for displaying/storing jewelry, serving dipping oils & spices, containing aromatics, or simply to provide beauty to a room.
The colors used in these pieces will include peacock teal, orange, red, pink, royal blue, greens, yellow, cream, and white. Each dish displays pops of contrasting colors in the decoration. Actual patterns may vary from those shown in above pic, but will be very similar. Sizes range from 2-3" diameter and all are less than 1" tall. Pieces are made on order and will be shipped within 2 weeks.
The dishes are made from a proprietary fine translucent porcelain that I formulated and make myself. If you raise a dish to a lamp, you can see light coming through the piece. The pigmented slip is applied through a needle-like tool in a precise and clean pattern which requires both skill, time, and years of practice
The dishes are lead-free and are completely food and microwave safe. Dishwashing detergents may wear down the raised textures, so gentle-cycle washing is preferred.

It was once a soap dish
Image by Unhindered by Talent
We’re totally ripping out and re-doing our two bathrooms, and the chaos began in earnest today with the demolition of the one upstairs. This is the back wall; the wooden square probably framed an old soap dish which had been later covered up by a newer plastic tub liner. It’s all pretty monochrome because it’s all coated in plaster and wood dust from the demolition.
This is pretty exciting for us, and not just because we’ll finally rebuild two grotty bathrooms. Our house was built in 1876, and we know that the bathrooms were added later, but we’ve never been able to pin down exactly when. Opening all this stuff up exposes all kinds of interesting bits that may help us learn more about the history of our house, which is pretty darn cool.
Expect more of this sort of thing in the next few days (or even weeks!).

Tiki Nut Dish
Image by Voxphoto
Years ago when I was throwing annual Tiki-themed parties, friends gave me this elaborate serving dish. It’s hand-carved (in the Philippines I believe) with scenes of grass huts, palm trees, and if you go large you can even see a water buffalo. The serving bowls are faux-seashell (probably made with shellacked tissue paper). They are also kind of tiny, making the whole thing a bit impractical and ridiculous. But somehow I can’t bring myself to get rid of it.
Truthfully I shot this as a quick DOF/bokeh test for my new Fujica GW690. This is with the lens wide open at f/3.5, and close to the near-focus limit. You can see the DOF is just a few inches. Some people have complained about the bokeh quality of this Fujinon lens, but it’s pretty neutral to my eye.

The finished dish. Sadly, the pictures are not too great. I didn’t get round to checking them before packing and posting the dish off to the recipients. I will get better pictures next time I see them!
