New #carryTrade HKDUSD? Or the end of the #HKD? Why the question? Currently you can borrow in the HKD at #0% (#zeroPercent) and get 4%-4,5% in the USD knowing that the HKD is pegged to the USD…. Good idea? Well…. The markets don’t think so otherweise you wouldn’t get the #freeMoney… so what’s in the bush? The end of the HKD? Whatever it is, the market knows more than mankind ;)

Well, I waited until very much later because I got tangled into some html and essentially took a huge dislike to web fonts and decided that web-safe fonts will be better instead, so dicked around with that until lunch, then went outside and did the phootgraphy, or so I thought, because after gathering all the hardware and crap to do the thing with background flash for knockout white, I realise that my two little cheapo flashguns and the one PC sync cable I have are the incorrect gender – the PC sync lead from the hotshoe to PC sync nipple gives the same nipple at the other end, which is the same nipple that the flashguns have! So I got distracted by remembering that I was halfway to solving this a few years ago and had a broken short curly PC lead which had the socket at one end (the nipple end had broken) and another PC socket in a bag that I’d ordered years ago but never soldered on, then I realised that I’d probably need a sort of Y arrangement for the PC sync cable because it needs to fire two flashguns at once but if I rely on optical slaving in bright sunlight, it probably won’t be reliable (although maybe it’s not worth accounting for bright sunlight, this is Britain, we only get about 5 days of very bright sunlight a year) so I spread all the parts out, stripped the cable back, dismantled the hotshoe PC nipple adaptor, then realised I was in danger of not taking any photos at all while the sun shone, so left it spread out on the table with the soldering iron not even in position yet and there it all remains even now

So I went outside and shot the shots of 0.0% and 0.5% beer, cider, wine, gin, etc in the Redwing Cocoon 70, lit entirely only by a bright sun, and it worked very well – I exposed into high-key to knockout the white background but kept the slight grad into grey under the drink bottle or can, and a small reflection on the shiny white of the Cocoon surface – it worked well I think. Shooting with a Sony RX10 on manual/manual, with a cable release to fire the thing with my left hand as it should’ve been designed to do in the first fucking place

As usual, product and industrial photography is a lot of physical work and far more time consuming than people realise (my first job out of art college was an industrial photographer in a small company that did that in Bournemouth, in the early 80s) – I reckon I’ve earned a few hundred quid in work this afternoon, except it’s for my own magazine (Zeropercent Magazine) so I’ll er put it on the account

I exposed high-key (ish) because there’s no true black in any of the images (it’s a very bright day) and so the histogram starts a bit into the scale and falls off the highlight end where the background knocks out - that’s how I want it
