Thanks to Photoshop and Topaz, I can do SS..;)
I'm still well. Sounds like I'll be working from home after next week. I hope everyone is staying healthy.
Here's a shot taken at Newport Pier one Sunday evening. I know your not supposed to center your subject in the composition but I just couldn't help myself. :)

Does anyone pay for lightroom on a Mac? Will it do better than this? I am using only the software that came preloaded on the iMac.
One from the archives. I learned to brighten shadows with this one, and then boosted the color in the sky. This one was a bit dull and I almost tossed it out.
Well, it had been waiting to happen: here is my Blender made B744 (or an approximation thereof).
Many thanks to Blender Guru for an excellent tutorial. Since the passenger versions of the B744 are being discontinued, I made a Cargo version though (which means I had to make only a few windows).
I used a blueprint of a B744 from Getoutlines.com to model the aircraft.
To make the livery I used Inkscape (first UV unwrapped the model, saved the UV file, imported in Inkscape, drew the livery there, then used that as a texture in Blender to project it on the UV unwrapped aircraft).
All software is freely available.
I went through hundreds of CC0 clouds pictures before I found one that worked. It took quite some time to get the lighting right too.
Every feather counts, excuse the pun 😃

Darckr
The Darckr Flickr Viewer is a webapp and a mashup based upon the flickr web rest apis.
Darckr allows to view Flickr content and helps in social life and picture management, by posting comments, or editing photo parameters.
For me, Darckr is an experimental platform to study the web2 languages.
Working is easier in beautiful surroundings...
Darckr uses ajax for continuous page preloading and streaming (here my own pictures sorted by interestingness according to Flickr), and the mootools javascript api.
The originality of Darckr is that the end user can freely customize his preferred viewing settings and save them on demand in cookies.
Ironically, this free software has become the mostly used of my programs ever, with more than 3000 thousand users of the full functionality,
several thousand pages viewed per day, and some 70000 api calls per day.
Still rising :-).
Darckr uses Ajax to interact with one's flickr account in ways not offered by the flickr web site itself.

I picked this shell off of some beach In Baja California, Mexico years ago and then finally photographed it last April, and then
converted it to black and white today using Nik Software's Silver Efex Pro 2.
Lighting: I first place the shell on a mirror, as I sometimes like that effect. I photographed this indoors, and the lighting is from a simple one light setup using a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box hand held at camera left and just out of the frame. Fill light came from a small hand held mirror at camera right. The strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Anything that I lit with off camera strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Objects album which has over 1600 images in it. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/albums/72157628079460544

We got lost on the way to a winery and saw this lovely scene so stopped to take photos. I was not able to do the double exposure theme this week as I do not have the software and was traveling and too busy to learn.

Vakantie Münster: bezoek Schloss Nordkirchen, stad Münster (o.a. kerken, Friedenssaal, burg en dierentuin), burg Vischering.
Schloss Nordkirchen is een paleis in de Duitse gemeente Nordkirchen. Het werd gebouwd in de periode van 1703 tot 1734 in barokke stijl. Het wordt door zijn omvang ook wel het Westfaalse Versailles genoemd.

This photograph was taken of the Tuscarwarus River at Crystal Springs, Ohio.
My friends took me to see one of their spectacular treasures - Egeskov - a moated castle about 30km south of Odense.
View taken: 1st September 1968
Film: Ferrania Color 3M transparency.
Camera: Edixa-Mat Flex S
Scanner: Epson V800/Epson Scan software.
Egeskov was first mentioned in 1405. The castle structure was erected by Frands Brockenhuus in 1554.
Due to the troubles caused by the civil war known as the Count's Feud (Danish: Grevens fejde), general civil unrest, and a civil war introducing the Protestant Reformation, most Danish noblemen built their homes as fortifications. The castle is constructed on oaken piles and located in a small lake with a maximum depth of 5 metres (16 ft). Originally, the only access was by means of a drawbridge. According to legend, it took an entire forest of oak trees to build the foundation, hence the name Egeskov (oak forest).
The estate has belonged to the Bille-Brahe family since 1784, when they acquired it from descendants of the Brockenhuus family. In 1882 it was inherited by the counts Ahlefeldt-Laurvig-Bille, who still own it. Wikipedia.
Some software experts posed with me for a group portrait a couple months ago.
Top (L to R) is Christina, Lisa, Kandi, Cristy, and Jane.
Lower (L to R) is me and Jenna.
The concept was to publicly display some favorite software: real or faux.
I, for one, was initially surprised at the number of software experts in my collection of friends. In retrospect - maybe that should not be surprising.
After all, arguing with any one of us expert women is like reading a software license agreement...
...in the end, you ignore it all and click "I agree".
Resistance is futile.

也许每个角落都是我们想要的
但是就偏偏得不到
也许失去在另一种意义上来说
是美好的
也许得到了另一种意义上来说
是一切的结束
也许没有也许
也许只是巧合
也许只是想象
也许你是对的
世上多少个也许
会有多少个。。。。
也许 也许

This woman was sitting at an outdoor table of a small restaurant/coffee-shop on the west side of Columbus Avenue at 73rd Street. It's the first time that I've seen anyone in this particular area (which is near a gym that I usually visit 2-3 times a week) with a laptop, and I was delighted to see that she had a Mac.... and not just any old Mac, but a Mac Powerbook.

This is part of an evolving photo-project, which will probably continue throughout the summer of 2008, and perhaps beyond: a random collection of "interesting" people in a broad stretch of the Upper West Side of Manhattan -- between 72nd Street and 104th Street, especially along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue.
I don't like to intrude on people's privacy, so I normally use a telephoto lens in order to photograph them while they're still 50-100 feet away from me; but that means I have to continue focusing my attention on the people and activities half a block away, rather than on what's right in front of me.
I've also learned that, in many cases, the opportunities for an interesting picture are very fleeting -- literally a matter of a couple of seconds, before the person(s) in question move on, turn away, or stop doing whatever was interesting. So I've learned to keep the camera switched on (which contradicts my traditional urge to conserve battery power), and not worry so much about zooming in for a perfectly-framed picture ... after all, once the digital image is uploaded to my computer, it's pretty trivial to crop out the parts unrelated to the main subject.
For the most part, I've deliberately avoided photographing bums, drunks, drunks, and crazy people. There are a few of them around, and they would certainly create some dramatic pictures; but they generally don't want to be photographed, and I don't want to feel like I'm taking advantage of them. I'm still looking for opportunities to take some "sympathetic" pictures of such people, which might inspire others to reach out and help them. We'll see how it goes ...
The only other thing I've noticed, thus far, is that while there are lots of interesting people to photograph, there are far, far, *far* more people who are *not* so interesting. They're probably fine people, and they might even be more interesting than the ones I've photographed ... but there was just nothing memorable about them.

More fall goodness from my trip to Allegheny College this weekend! This is the main administration building at Allegheny and is named for Dr. William Bentley who donated his private library to the College. There is an old legend that former President of the United States William McKinley (who attended Allegheny) once got a cow stuck at the top of the tower right in the middle of the building!
I had to get this shot, as I loved how the trees faded from green to yellow to red to orange going from left to right! Again, processed with HDR Efex!
I hope that you all enjoy your week!!!
I don't mind invitations, but please no big, shiny, flashing, glitter graphics, they will be deleted. Also, please contact me if you would like to use my pictures for any reason, as all rights are reserved. Thanks!

Both of us wanted to work together on a model for a long time. The subject of the collaboration was found rather quick – the Slave 1 of Boba Fett, as seen in the original trilogy. We wanted to test a digital-first approach with stud.io for this model, which also enabled close collaboration from the get-go despite the status of the world. While it was an unusual take on that model and a completely new experience for us, it allowed us to combine our unique strengths in style and building, bringing the best results out of our joint work. We iteratively pitched concepts and ideas, challenged (and sometimes stressed) each other. But in the end, we think this particularly elevated our work: For sure without this approach, this model would not exist as it does, and we are especially proud of our collaboration and the outcome.
The Slave 1, unlike other models, has not often been rendered as a MOC. The round shapes and crazy angles of the model, which you might call with good right “not-LEGO-friendly”, are probably a major reason for this. Therefore, this challenge was extra appealing to us - and we were not disappointed: This is the ultimate final boss in LEGO building!
We based our MOC on the ILM studio/filming model built for The Empire Strikes Back. The most important goal for us was to recreate the correct proportions, smooth roundness and a precise rendering of the "used universe look“ or weathering you often see on Star Wars ships. But we didn't just want our Slave 1 to look good, we also faithfully recreated all functions and features: These include a rotating cockpit, which is triggered by turning the wings, and a fully fleshed out loading ramp. Both the interior and the weapon systems are realized: There is a weapon hatch on one side (instead of two, which is wrong for Bobas Slave 1), twin-laser turrets, two retractable torpedo launchers at the tip of the trunk and a working seismic bomb dispenser. Crew quarters, hidden quarters for Boba and many more details were faithfully recreated.
The studio/filming model was modified for the different movies and TV-shows. Especially for "The Mandalorian" and "The Book of Boba Fett" the interior was enlarged, and, among other things, an additional pilot's seat was added compared to the original. The scale of our model is based on the size of the windshield (if you're precise: it's 1 stud too short and the curvature is not correct), which roughly results in minifigure scale.
Cheers! Skywalter, Marshal Banana
