“smart” sharpening software – great tips here. Applies to the GIMP as well as Photoshop.

City Sunrise
Taken this morning in Cork City. It's now overcast outside but this morning there was a beautiful sky.
What About Me?
3 pigeons sitting on a wall. One of them was left on it's own and was trying to pal up to the other two.

On another note, the sales started yesterday and I had a look around this morning. One digital camera shop I went into had a sale, and they were preparing the price tags so I spoke to an assistant. All they were offering off a EUR700 camera was EUR40! Woo! I'm buying! Not..

photoSig: What do you think of these comments on photos? Yeah, very useful.

Pixel Count – excellent article on digital photography, and the contraints imaging sensors hit. Those constraints aren’t always the sensor too..

The GIMP is annoying me right now. I’m editing a 1600×1200 image, 3 layers, modifications on each layer, and it’s taking ages to perform simple operations such as “blur” or “magic wand”. I do have the undo-level set at 10, but my machine has plenty of RAM. Grrr.
Evening Sky Over Cork City – Photo taken last week, sky was manipulated to enhance the colour. It’s raining outside now though. *boo hiss*
