Another cold and gray winter day.
Nothing better to do , so – let’s take a picture of my Christmas gift. My new Chili Cutter.
I’ve loaded the Mill with some “Bird’s eye Chili”.
Bird’s Eye Chillies are botanically to the family of Capsicum frutescens, a particularly hot chilli family, which is considered as the prototype of chili. The bird’s eye chili is small, but is quite hot (piquant). It measures around 100,000–225,000 Scoville units.
Here is the Lightning Diagram from the shot:
Two weeks ago, i had some fun with RC Team Watzl.
In Bad Breisig, a little town near the romantic River Rhine, i’ve made some Photos with Christian Watzl and two beautiful girls. Here are some pictures.
here you can see some “behind the scenes” pics….
by the way…. We take some pics in one of the blue “steel boxes”,
called: intermodal container. blue? not really,
inside they are red,but not red enough. 🙂
I’ve used a red color gel and a smoke machine for these pictures.
Special thanks to the beautiful girls, who made this pictures possible.
See you next time 🙂
Logo Design for Team Watzl. The “C” in the Logo stands for “Christian Watzl” the Driver! I’ve made it something back in 2013, but now it’s in Action.
and here in Action…. (and a little Teaser for the next shooting)
In the last days of 2013 I made a new virtual tour, of a bunker which was built in 1942. It was maintained by the Civil Protection since the begin of the Cold War.
You can klick on the image (below) to view the Virtal Tour, or move to Panorama Page here. All Panos were made with the “EpicProHead” a motorized panoramic head. I use the Auto Exposure Bracketing with 5 pics, to be more flexible at the later editing.

Here you can see a little “behind the scenes” video:
And here two very nice pics, i think. Photographed in the Bunker Stairway:
Here are two photos of the “I call it Zalando Shooting” with JC
and one behind the scenes photo.
and here … how it was shot.
The idee for this Picture is based on the “Don’t give AIDS a chance” the BZgA campaign for HIV/AIDS prevention.
“Don’t give AIDS a chance” (“Gib Aids keine Chance”) is Germany’s largest and most comprehensive health prevention campaign. It is a model example of a successful prevention strategy with a nationwide impact on the public. Since 1987, it has been combining mass-media and personal communication measures that specifically target different groups of the population.

Little video from the very hot Sunday, the 11th of July…
The sun coming thru my window in the morning … it’s a beautiful day … i got nothing better to do… so…
the 39 degrees of celsius were perfect for the “GAS CAN” photoshoot.
PS: we use water instead of petrol, so the model was not harmed in the making of this picture 🙂
here is the “behind the scenes” video:
here is the final picture:
Model: STAR
I set up a Striplight Softbox with Grid, mounted on a Starlight500.
I put the flash on a stand over us,50 degrees down for hair light.
The Softbox also creates a little spill light for the background.
One Starlight500 mounted with a BarnDoor and a yellow gel,
straight up under the hole of the Box.
I call it the “Pandora Box Light”.
Third Studio Flash with a snoot for the lighting of the outer box.
Camera controlled remotely, you see the remote in my hand 🙂
