here is a slick trick, go into ur bathroom and turn the shower on to full hot then leave and close the door. come back in a few min and the room should be steamed up, shut off the water and again leave. after about 30 min the steam will have condensated and fall to the floor carrying the room dust with it leaving a dust free enviorment to work in. NEVER USE CANNED AIR TO CLEAN A SENSOR OR A LENS, it cat spit and distroy them.

do u hava sound card with a line input?

The Meatball at Ape Cave near Couger Washington. It was technically difficult because the cave is pitch black and I had to make three trips with my 4x5 to get it right. I even had to rig a strobe to the top of a ten foot piece of electrical conduit with a switch at the bottom to strobe the high areas. I used a lantern placed directly under the Meatball to set the focus at f/8 and shutter on bulb, then put it out and stumbled around in the dark light painting the walls and floor using my body to shield the flash from the camera. Also, I had to do this around 2AM because the cave is very popular and I did not want people walking thru the frame with their lamps.

it was fun until it got commercialized

and can spit on the sensor

back in the day National Geographic Photographers on assignment would shoot 5000-6000 images per day. there were several reasons. NG provided all film and developing, the raw film was sent to NG whos editors would cherry pick what they wanted and sent the rest back to the Photographer for their own use, and, most importantly, people would get used to seeing this person shooting frame after frame and start ignoring the crazy guy and that's when you start getting the good Photographs.

i have noticed that!

MY UFO STORY

Several years ago while in the back yard of my sisters house my brother in law and I were bbq-ing dinner. I happened to look up and I saw a point of light moving fast
across the night sky traveling west to east. I thought "oh cool, a satellite" and told my brother to check it out. As we watched it traverse for about twenty seconds it suddenly
instantly reversed course and came to a stop directly above us and came to a stop as though it has seen us. It paused for about two seconds, went stright up and then
disappeared.

a salesman goes to Hong Kong on a bisness trip. while there he partakes of some "local talent" . a few weeks after returning to the USA he notices some discoloration at the base of his member so he goes to his doctor. the dr tells him he has contracted a rare STD for which there is no cure and his only option is amputation. the salesman is shocked and seeks a second opinion but gets the same answer, amputation. still unwilling to accept that he thinks maybe if i return to Hong Kong and see a Chinese dr they may know more about this. the Chinese dr confirms the STD but says no need to amputate. the salesman is relived and says "what can we do?" "American doctors, thats all they want to do is cut, cut, cut, give it a few more months and it will fall off by itself!"
