for my favorite group "ipod portrait tuesday", i have not actually read ulysses on my ipod, but theres a great website with an awful lot of books for your ipod: manybooks.net/
I was trying to recreate some 80's style text effects in Pixelmator. I used another image for reference but I cant find it if you know the URL let me know so I can link back to the original..... it was an exercise to learn a bit more about Pixelmator and what we can do with it.
Prepping Nikon Picture Control types for use:
1. Using the Picture Control Utility in View NX2, for each Picture Control create a variant, with the following settings, (adjustments set to Manual in the Picture Control utility):-
Sharpening = auto
Contrast / Brightness = auto
Saturation = auto.
Note you first click the "Manual" button (to enable customisation) then proceed as follows
2. For each Picture Control type, name each (and save) as follows:-
Standard = as "Standard auto" variant
Portrait = "Portrait auto"
Etc. so that you have an auto variant for each Picture Control type, to get you started using them, in VNX2.
You can Export these pre-sets to your camera via SD card, refer to the help (ticked on the schematic.)
Once you have saved all the 'Auto' variants for each Picture Control type, then you can start to process your NEFs, using these saved custom settings. You can do this in the field when out shooting, or post the shoot, in VNX2 / CNX2.
Double click a NEF to bring it into the Edit window - then view the camera applied Picture Control type, then decide if you want to change / experiment.
You will or should notice a dramatic improvement in quality.
You will most often find very little extra sharpening is required.
N.B. Don't start messing around with curve customisation, until you know what you're doing and have built up experience with the customisation I've outlined at the top of this posting.
We hope you enjoy these images. Feel free to use them, all we ask is that you attribute them to "Kitmondo Vintage" with the link: www.kitmondo.com/equipment-knowledge-hub/the-vintage-mach...

I knew the credit crunch was bad, but I didn't realise it was this bad! It brings a new meaning to the phrase 'minimum wage'. See engineroomblog.blogspot.com/2008/04/friday-roundup-4-ame-... for my original post.

I have always considered the ultimate in photography to be National Geographic Magazine. I was thrilled when I received a FlickrMail from them telling me that they wanted to use one of my images! The online edition, not the magazine. The German Online edition. This is a screen shot of the latest National Geographic Deutschland. I can read my name but that's about all. I don't read German. They told me it was it was for an article about the spread of Kudzu in the USA. It could be about really bad photography in the USA for all that I know.
But...either way....I'm in National Geographic! Cool!

What better way to open a photography account than with a random picture of myself that doesn't even look much like me?

Last day of operation, Sunday April 18, 2004
Built by Herbert Dowling in 1956, The Surf became an anchor motel of what became known as the Golden Mile. It was among the first motels on the beach to have central air-conditioning.
"The Surf is coming down because it costs too much to upgrade the ailing building, whose space-age, 1950s furniture has never been replaced and whose mid century look was featured in Architectural Digest. A 30-unit hotel-condo is planned to rise in its place. Each unit could cost near $400,000, as opposed to The Surf's rents of $66 a night." - St. Petersburg Times

The logos have been developed by Edinburgh-based digital firm Whitespace, which has been responsible for designs used by Tennent’s Lager, Highland Spring and the Royal Bank of Scotland.
The images will appear on the front of each of the 27 trams below the driver’s window and also on the side of several carriages.
Leaflets, timetables and even Ridacards are eventually expected to carry the new designs. The logos will also appear on the new travel shop being opened on Waverley Bridge.
The branding is based on a round circle that contains a simple interconnecting route map.
It has been billed as showcasing the “interchange terminals of passengers and the strategic approach of collaboration between modes of transport within the Transport for Edinburgh family”.
Madder – a deep reddish, purple colour – will feature in all the logos. Transport leaders wanted to retain the distinct colour because of its use historically on Lothian Buses vehicles.
The branding process for the trams has cost about £80,000.
Each 45m-long tram will be “dressed” with the new logos and colour scheme at a cost of £2554 for each vehicle ahead of the line’s operational launch by May next year.
Some new vehicles in the Lothian Buses fleet will display the branding from next month, but logos will only be added to others as they are replaced in efforts to save cash
Subway Station Wall. At one point in human history there would be a Public Pay Phone and an Emergency Phone, marked black and red respectively here.
Over the course of the mobile technology era they have since been removed. Considering one can never get a signal down there, not sure that was the wisest of decisions.
Best in lightbox.
Very very sad day today :(
