Tilt/Shift

A contact on my Flickr uploaded a few pics using the tilt/shift lens technique. I really like it, although I do not have a true digital SLR. I do have a 35mm film SLR that I could try to use. A homemade tilt shift lens can be made, but the real ones look nice!

Here is a link to his page

And here is a link to the wiki article on the Tilt/Shift lens technique

Another cool picture “Miniature Santiago” was not taken with a tilt/shift lens, rather it was altered in photoshop.

I found this site with some amusing flash apps.
I was playing with beats on the FL 909.
There are other apps on the site as well.

How to get rid of Snap’s link previews

Hello all,

To me it seems wordpress is connected to this spa.snap service. But whatever the case is I find it disrupting. So i lost it by blocking it via Firefox. There are more ways to lose these big popup-like previews generated by spa.snap for example found here.

Greetings

Mimicry and Legendary Psychasthenia*

Roger Caillois

From whatever side one approaches things, the ultimate problem turns out in the final analysis to be that of distinction: distinctions between the real and the imaginary, between waking and sleeping, between ignorance and knowledge, etc. — all of them, in short, distinctions in which valid consideration must demonstrate a keen awareness and the demand for resolution. Among distinctions, there is assuredly none more clear-cut than that between the organism and its surroundings; at least there is none in which the tangible experience of separation is more immediate. So it is worthwhile to observe the phenomenon with particular attention and, within the phenomenon, what is even more necessary, given the present state of our knowledge, is to consider its condition as pathology (the word here having only a statistical meaning)–i.e., all the facts that come under the heading of mimicry.

What is the big idea?

Ello all ^_^

So in a chat it rised… this blog to have an idea behind it… a frame apart from the restriction of this beeing a blog and the richness of our bunch… a stated common direction perhaps.

I find the idea of a blog being more then a backdrop and gathering/meeting place interesting. But what is the big idea? Does anyone have such idea? Or is the common direction now to work towards finding out what our common direction is?

Anyone?

Good day to you all. ^^

This clip was brought to my attention by Aka. Since i wanted to see if we can embed youtube clips it into our blog i made this post.

It might look fake but I do belief this has to do with the poor quality of the clip.

(inktvis is a Dutch word for squid)
