Like a Sunset

Yeah those clouds are real. Perhaps the most stunning sunset I've ever seen!

Sun Bathing Rocks

When its cold out, the rocks like to bath in the warming rays of the rising sun.

A Very Retro Christmas

I found out about the app Instagram and my life has never been the same! It applies cool filters to photos and then the photos can be uploaded and shared in a way similar to twitter. But it's better.

New 4th generation iPod touch takes photos

"I wonder what the photo quality is of this 4th generation iPod touch?" I asked myself.

The answer: meh.

The resolution is 960x720 pixels, which is around 0.7 mega pixels. Sadly, my 3 year old cellphone has a higher resolution camera. However, it is nice to have a large screen and slim camera with me all the time. The iPod takes photos in color, but I've just got this thing for Black & White right now. Enjoy!

Thought this needed a little cleaning up from the previous version. I like the repeating shapes. Varying light adds subtly while shots of color keep things interesting.

Astigmatism

My friend asked me what its like to have an astigmatism. I tried to find some images on the web, but found few photos that were good examples. So in Photoshop, I endeavored to simulate what my astigmatism looks like. This is a bit exaggerated, just FYI.

Oh Hai Beautiful Jewelry!

Aside from engraving things at work, I also take pictures of jewelry (random?). These are some new beautiful pieces we just got in. I thought the pictures turned out looking good; considering I was using a point-and-shoot camera and a homemade light-box.

Wooden Bridge

I like to combine materials and add color. (bridge image source)

Found these in a drawer.

Old Time-y Photo Processing

So my brother, who is living in the Czech Republic, sent me this photograph he took of a town square:

I thought it was pretty cool, but decided it could be AWESOME! I wanted it to have a 1960's sort of feel to it; vibrant colors, texture, vignette, etc. So, with a little experimentation in Photoshop I came up with this:

It has a kind of a retro feel to it. Much better!
