Photographic Stuff
Couple of links I picked up over the last few days..
- Photographic: Photo Techniques – so much here, definitely worth a look!
- Photo Mosaic – GIMP plugin that’ll recreate an image out of others in a mosaic.
- taking Control Over Depth Of Field – It’s Photoshop orientated but the ideas here can probably be transported to the GIMP easily enough.
Defamatory, humiliating, or libelous uses are specifically and emphatically PROHIBITED! – What can you do with a photograph? Here’s what Comstock.com says about this.
Man and Kids
On a a beautiful day in Garretstown I snapped this man minding his grandkids. Looks like he’d rather be anywhere but there!
Daisy
The same Daisy as yesterday. It was a beautiful, sunny day when I took this photo. The rain’s pouring out of the heavens today. 🙁
U.S. Military Clears A-Team Of Charges
This is great news! Finally they can join society and make use of their “make-anything-with-a-few-pipes-and-corrogated-iron” skills in legit industry!
p a t r i c k d u r a n d . c o m – vertical cities, panoramas, *phew*
p a t r i c k d u r a n d has some great stuff on his site. Check out the “Vertical Cities” for unusual pictures of Paris! And wow, the rest are brilliant too.
Hats off to this guy, he’s talented!
Daisy, daisy, in the dark
Taken on a very sunny Tuesday afternoon but post-processing in the GIMP gave me the desired effect. Hope you like it!
mooncheese – DHTML and Javascript Demo
My machine’s a bit underpowered so this took a while to get going. mooncheese looks good from the small bit I watched. Be warned that you should probably not load this in your browser if you have windows/tabs open that you can’t risk losing!
CSS and Web Design Stuff
Wooh! Here’s a nice Online CSS Optimizer/Optimiser! But watch this space, Kae Veren’s working on a much better one! 🙂
This web design guide from Adam Polselli looks promising. Must delve into it later!
Here’s how to create horizontal frames using CSS. Thanks Kae for finding that for me!
The Digital Journalist August 2004 Issue
The August 2004 Issue of The Digital Journalist is now out and from a quick scan looks as good as previous offerings, including The Death of a Famous Unknown, an article about Henri Cartier-Bresson. No wonder I didn’t know about him :-
One of Henri Cartier-Bresson’s favorite quotations was from the French painter Degas, who declared that it was “wonderful to be famous as long as you remain unknown.”
