Sink porn, is a term I had not heard until just before Christmas when I was invited to join a Flickr group who took photographs of sinks in various states. Curiously, I myself have been documenting my shaving habits over the last few years regularly snapping various sinks where I have departed with facial hair into their ceramic bowels.
I wanted to try something completely different with this incantation, as the last was quite hard to manage with a timer and wireless remote. This time I let the camera do the work, setting up a fixed focal point using a Nikkor F1.8 50mm prime lens on my Nikon D300s and then attaching it to a laptop to do a time lapse.
Because it provided quite a lot of images, I didn’t want to post all of them into Flickr because there are too many things that go wrong when you do that with Flickr (like the fact it doesn’t stick to the the sequence based on the meta or file name), so I have converted it using the Lightroom 3 Beta into a MP4 video file.
