camera strap slip covers { Swanky Straps }

Posted 06-17-2009 at 11:22 AM by jennjo

I am having a HUGE sale to clear out my camera strap covers. I recentaly got new lables and want to start a fresh batch. Plus I have some bad pic as I did not have my camera and us in a SUPER big rush, so I could give the borrowed camera back.

Another guitar finish attempt...

Posted 02-11-2009 at 06:22 AM by Paul Shields (Paul's blog)

This is an attempt at getting a sort of butterscotch effect on my lovely old Tokai tele. The body was originally a bit battered, so I stripped it using a mouse sander and smoothed out any wrinkles. From my understanding, this model was built using Alder, so the grain is not that obvious. It still shows through nicely enough though.

I used a white tint and then a yellow tint (nitro based). Found it quite tricky to get an even coverage, but all in all it looks quite nice. Maybe a bit...

Maybe Fender were embarrassed about it . At least they were prepared to try something new in those days. Now it seems they're perfectly happy to just sit back...

Adam A7 nearfield monitors

Posted 10-23-2008 at 04:17 PM by Paul Shields (Paul's blog)

So what's this got to do with photography, I don't hear you ask .

Well, nothing really - but I'm currently listening to my new active nearfield A7's playing some music over wifi via my squeezebox and I finally feel I've found the perfect nearfield monitors. Brilliant dynamics, that unique Adam ribbon tweeter, and - very unusually - controls on the front of the monitor!



These are really transparent...
