The Gallery is expanding!

Since I still don't own a digital camera myself, the photo updates to this site depend quite heavily on my luck in occasionaly borrowing one. Right now my photo collection is almost complete, though, and most of the pictures already to be found in the various Gallery sections.

Photographing snowdomes either takes a digital camera with macro and preferrably a zoom function too, or a (semi-)professional analog camera. I've tried taking dome photos with my own aim-and-shoot analog camera - the results were about as good as my attempts into wildlife photographing i the Copenhagen Zoo ("Oh, of course - it's that blurry dot in the middle!!")



Above is a photo from one of my (digital) dome shooting sessions. Location: Kitchen. Additonal equipment: Tripod, work table lamp, bedside lamp, a piece of string, gift wrapping paper, silk paper, napkin, cardboard boxes, telephone books, coffea, ashtray...

Further, and certainly more streamlined, dome shooting instructions can be found on www.domeorama.com.

 





An earlier, highly professional shooting session in my Florida hotel room, 1998... Notice the three domes on the table below the mirror. At the time of departure I had a bag full of snowdomes, which appeared, buy the way, to look rather odd when x-rayed at the airport. (I wish I had a print of it - it did cause some unwrapping and rewrapping before I was allowed through the control gate, much to the amusement of my fellow travellers).
