Taken on a small group of Islands in the Oslo fjord, called Hvasser. A 15 meter peice of fabric playing in the wind, scanned right to left in 21 seconds. Got really lucky with the clouds this time, allowing a single beam of sunlight in as a highlight.
Thats quite the contraption! What an epic rig, and awesome shots! Thank you so much for sharing! What do you think is the cause of the moiree-pattern in the edges of some of them?
I stumbled onto another use for my contraption. I was invited to a life drawing class, and I'm terrible at drawing, so I replaced the scanner with just a sheet of blank paper, and I drew around the image that was formed on the paper.
The scale is limited by the lens I was using. These two are about A5, but I could have drawn them larger if I was sitting closer, or using a longer lens.
Lighting was an important aspect. The room was dark, and the model was under stage lights, and I was working under the hood.
I've always wanted to try a Camera Lucida, but it's difficult to justify buying the prism. Maybe I'll try some kind of teleprompter type setup next time.
That’s pretty clever. You’re walking in the footsteps of the Dutch masters, using projection in this way. I really like the drawings, and congratulations on finding more uses for your device!
That's caused by the fresnel lens. Its a cheap plastic one that I picked up at a craft store.
