Car fine art shot using the FDL Technique (focuses diffused lighting). I'm still practicing this technique. I am surprised every time I put the exposures together. You can only imagine the outcome of the shot when you are shooting it. This keeps it really interesting.
A few shots from the winter of 2025. The last one was inside of the Acropolis Museum. (Unfortunately, I could get everyone to walk exactly where I wanted them to. hahaha)
For iPhone users - a new version of Bluristic has dropped (v1.8) which offers new features and significant improvements in stability & useability.
I am interested in learning Macro/Closeup photography and understanding that Focus Bracketing is a good part of the process, I thought I would give focus stacking a try.
Another visit to our garden using a vintage lens (Canon FD 50mm f/1.4) on my Canon R5. NOTE: With this lens the minimum focusing distance is 18" at which point you have 1/4" depth of field.

very cool, would love to see a rendition of this technique with someone in the drivers seat.
could idea. I'll try that soon
This is really beautiful, Thomas.
Thank you!
I love this technique, love your shots with it. Can't wait to get some more lighting equipment to try it. I heard somewhere (maybe from you?) that with a bright enough flash and fast enough shutter speeds you can get this in daylight? Does that sound right?
Yes that's the start. You can do it everywhere
Awesome
Thank you!
Thomas, beautiful shot. I had 3 different Healey 3000's over 10 years in my youth so your shot brings back some nice memories. What modifier(s) are you using for this?
Awesome youth! Great that I brought back those memories! I use a speedlight with beautydish and a diffuser panel.
Very hard shot to pull off, but a rewarding one when you get it right. Well done !
Thank you Adrian. Yes the outcome will always be a big surprise.
Such an effective and great technique. You make it look effortless.
