Test Target 1 New Broncolor Strip Light by Nokton48, on Flickr

Test Digital Image Nex 7 checking lighting. New Broncolor Strip Light in right back corner, provides nice extra edge light. Hanging from Manfrotto Scissors from the ceiling, very adjustable and makes the most use of the space. One also back corner camera left available but not used for this test. Also the 1000mm F16 is aimed at this (same view), leaving it set up. Octobox 150, and Balloon used again as front and side (fill) light.

Triptich of three stained glass windows of the St Guibertus Church in Schilde (Belgium)

Left and right original versions (restored), but some of the originals were too far gone to be restored and were replaced by new modern ones, of which you see an example in the middle


All A7ii + Elmar 135/4

Stovepipe Finder and A24 Back loaded with Shanghai 220. Broncolor Boxlite 40 8 inches away 45 camera right. Mirror on gooseneck 45 left for fill.

Antwerp has a big (public) sculpture park around the Middelheim museum.

A very nice place for a walk and admire over 200 sculptures from many different artists, in many sizes and from many eras. We went there with the complete (extended) family on Easter Monday.

Here's an example of something special we saw (and experimental)

1: Build a big slide



2: Build a concrete bunker at the end



3: Fill an oil barrel with water, roll it down the slide into the bunker and observe the shape created by the impact


All A7ii + Summicron 50/2 (v1, rigid)
