Description
Photographies made with my Nikon D70S and a Tamron lens 18-200 mm.
Little postwork with Nik Color Effect Pro (filter "Classical Soft Focus") and framed with Photoshop 7
Another collage of 3 shots of my little Grand Mother and teacher, and Katia working on her own basket.
After to have cut all the pieces of bamboo, we must learn how to braid the strips to even compose the basket.
Easy you'll say to me ???? And well, not at the beginning !!! A simple base, three strips above, three strips below...
And with each line, we shifts of a strip... OK ? you understood the principle ? Katia not having the practice of manual work, had much evil to understand the principle. And each time that she added some pieces of bamboo, she has to recount. Useless to say to you that we laughed so much together ! Especially the small Granny !!!! But quickly, once that we acquired the principle, it was better and easier ! We just need a minimum of concentration, and a little agility too. And then it's necessary especially to pay great attention because the strips of bamboo are quite tight the ones against the others to not make holes...
That's all !
I've made these shots with an exposure of 1/60 sec and a diaphragm of 5.6 - ISO 200.
You'll see the end of this serie next week... Tomorrow morning I'm going to Nice for a week-end with Magali (Laelia on Renderosity), and to see the Photographical Exhibition of Zulaan and Cygne !!!!! Great !!!! I'm so happy for them !!! I'll tell you about all the jewels I'll saw there ! and make a report for you of this crazy sunday we'll have together !
