Because Mondays should feel more like Fridays...

Wrigley Field, Chicago

Safeco Field, Seattle

I downloaded Photoshop's free iPhone app this weekend. Under the 'Effects' menu (top right), if you select 'Vignette Blur' you get a tiltshift like image. Apply the filter several times to increase the tiltshift'ness of the shot. Also allows you to do a bunch of other cool effects, crop, saturation, etc. And it's free, or 699 bucks cheaper than the official copy of Photoshop for your laptop!

Wayno Insano cracking table tops for breakfast just outside the town of Eilat, Israel.

When this plot of land was mined, the permission to do so was only granted if the trees would be left unharmed.
And so they built the best dirt quarter-pipe ever.
THANK YOU! Wayne Goss is da man too.
Happy Monday

Start of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race.
The place was packed and it was HOT.
Was wishing I'd brought my umbrella...

Friday Happy Hour: Ahoy, Land Ahead Matey!



A solid 14 hours on a plane is enough to make anyone tweak. Pulling into Sydney was a most welcome sight...

Shot with the HTC Touch HD camera PHONE. Set it long ways on the rocks and focused with the touch screen selective focus. Got a tilt shift'ish image out of it. No photoshop. Nada. I'm going back for more....

Happy Monday!

Slack lining extraordinaire, Larry Harpe, making it look easy. Shot with a Samsung Omnia camera phone then a 2 min edit in iMovie. The biggest hurdle was converting the video file from MPEG4 to something that editing applications can import and work with. With a little diggin, I found (FREE) Prism: http://www.nchsoftware.com/prism/plus.html

Happy Monday

Ilha Grande, Brazil
And old shot from an old point and shoot, loaded with slide film. The shutter wasn't syncing and kicked out shots like this sometimes.
Wish I was there with my broken camera right now.
Happy Monday.

POP



Shot it with the Samsung Omina 5MP camera phone and tweaked the saturation until the shadow popped and the sky became almost painting like, then printed on a 3-in-1 Epson photo printer. On high gloss paper, it looks goooooooooooooooood.

Justin 'Truckeee' Hawxhurst earning his nickname in Kapaonik, Serbia.
During the 30-day road trip from France through the former Yugoslavia to Bulgaria, then back, we saw the sun for less than an hour.

It snowed the entire month we were gone, which was too good to be true in some ways, but it took driving an RV on pothole-ridden roads to all time new level. We averaged 10 or more hours per 150 miles. The scenic route for sure.

Ham it Up



The tastiest ham I've ever eaten. Xmas '08.
Today reminded me of that ham.
Happy Easter.
