By rights I would have photographed a Dalek today. As we have no Dalek in the house, I used this tiny N-gauge Police Box as my Terry Nation reference for today's 365 Blip. 

It was late in the day when I got around to thinking about my 365 shot. I had been engrossed all day in setting up this new Koken site and the learning curve was steep. 68 yielded very little of interest, so I turned once more to On This Day. 

Terry Nation (8 August 1930 – 9 March 1997) was a Welsh television writer and novelist. He is best known for creating the villainous Daleks for the long-running BBC science-fiction TV series Doctor Who in 1963.

I  had attempted to use this prop recently in my 365 and failed. The recent arrival of the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro OS HSM Lens meant that I could make something of it today.

The model was set up on one of my interlocking black rubber mats, and a second mat hinged up behind it. The lights were out and I used a tiny Mag penlight to paint the model. Having overdone the light a little, I had to reduce saturation and luminance on orange and yellow in Lightroom. I then cropped the image and exported it to Nik's Analog Pro and applied Vintage Camera 4 as my preset.

I love it!
