Day 139: Say something!

nobody@flickr.com (Mark Grealish) — Tue, 18 May 2010 19:17:49 -0700

A blog is turning sour when the author starts spattering his posts with apologies for the lack of exciting content and new posts, but truth be told: We live and die on feedback. This whole site lives and dies on the feedback and interest of my readers. So far, aside from my very few regular commentators (Hey @picaaf! :) my posts are met with an echoing silence unless I fall short of your expectations. Then I get instant messages, emails and the occasional phone call about the lack of great shots.

Not fair.

If you like what you see and you want to see more of it, write a comment! Tell your friends! Show it off to your family and retweet, repost, email, smoke signal, pony express, shout, whisper, gossip about, mock or praise my links! Take the five seconds to bash off a quick "great photo!" This blog - this whole project - lives and dies on your whim. If you like it, support it!

Very, very unfortunately vision my vision outstripped reality. I had the exact shot in mind and a great setup, but come to stitching time the whole thing just fell disappointingly flat. But really, what are lazy Sunday's for except try try trying again?

Day 128: Pure laziness

nobody@flickr.com (Mark Grealish) — Fri, 14 May 2010 07:44:34 -0700

Mark Grealish posted a photo:

Lough Rea (not Loughrea) is a strange lake. From the park at the point named The Point, the horizon curves weirdly due to the town’s natural layout in a wide, shallow fold of the land (and The Points placement on a point of land, of course). As you’d look from left to right in the original crop the horizon would take an abrupt 45-degree upward turn from about halfway to the edge from the tree’s trunk. While completely and unquestionably natural, it looks remarkably strange when seen in a photograph, so I took it upon myself to remedy this by brute force using Photoshop’s move tool.

Umm, enjoy?

Something quick for today; I caught this on the main road just outside of Loughrea against the backdrop of some spectacularly dark skies. Eagle-eyed readers may notice that the sign looks significantly different at infrared wavelengths!

I set up shop in the middle of Shop Street today to get my crowd shots in. By golly was I just stared at

How is my processing? I am using a new workflow that involves the levels and selective colour tools.

After a day of fruitlessly trying to process one photograph I gave up and moved onto this.

Day 107: An Apology

I've really neglected my photography and by extension my 365 days project in the past week. You see, I've (re)discovered the wonderful magic happy-place known as Diablo 2, and the being able to sit down and mentally switch off for a few hours at a time. Or two days, in my case. Ho hum.

All apologies aside, I hit my beloved Menlo this afternoon and took a different route than my normal one, a route that allowed me new viewpoints on familiar sights. The tree above is just a sampling. More to come. :)

Also, how is my conversion?
