From Andyman's Universe...stuff & whatnots. (more pics)

Hey, just for grits and shiggles have you tried the laser pointer technique with translucent figs? Water Dragon? Alien Spawn 2, Sub-Zero Monev, Stealth Predator?

I've done it just to see the effect, but I never took a time-capture of it.

More fun with slow speed photography!

Electroman:

Here I scanned one side with the LED mini flashlight and the other with a single green LED. I accidently got the green LED into the shot but it made a pretty cool effect.


Laser pointer scan on one side. I think a green or blue light back light would help but my camera batteries died before I could adjust it.


Blue & green LED flashers on one side, red & green on the other. (Thanks to Chet for those!) I tried to back light with LED mini flashlight and came up with kind of a cool look.



This one I really like! I just kept swinging the mini flashlight up and down behind Electroman.

LED flashers either side and low mini flashlight for backlight. All exposures here are 15 seconds long.


This one a swung a blue flashing wand type LED flasher behind the subject.


Space Dog gets a new look.


On this one I tried to backlight by scanning a red/green LED flasher back & forth. It made a really weird design.

Shooting my metallic colored robots has been a real challenge for me. The metallic colors need something to reflect, preferably something white. The problem is that white tends to over expose the robot. This pic still needs work (more backlight) but I think it shows off the bot really well.

damn, Andy...these are friggin' SWEET!
I mean, I've always like the Bots, but these pics are over the top.

maybe you could do the cover for our record... [img]graemlins/idea.gif[/img]

Cool stuff Andy!! Very interesting effects. You've got a lot more patience than I do. [img]wink.gif[/img] What kind of camera are you using?

[Peter Peeker]

I t'inks it's a Polaroid, eh...

The stuff is ok, but the whatnots are to die for!

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">It's a Canon PowerShot S-70 with 7.1 megapixel res. I would consider it to be a "prosumer" camera if you're familiar with that term. I got it as a Xmas gift from my business "landlord".

The beauty of a digital camera is that you can take pics like mad and get instant results. Great for experimenting! The only thing limiting me is my battery pack. I need to get an AC adapter.
