sailing takes me away to where I’ve always heard it could be…
tomorrow us magazine folks are taking the afternoon off to go sailing. my first time on a boat, ever.
okay, that’s a lie, but it will be my first time sailing. I’m very excited. there is going to be jibs and masts and spinnakers and winches and all sorts of nauticalness. I just hope I don’t throw up. I probably will, because that’s what I do. Embarrass myself in ridiculous situations that I will never be able to live down.
in a topic unrelated to sailing, I like this guy’s pictures at flickr. is it acceptable to link to some strange person’s flickr photos?
I like the one girls comment of having an “Eyegasm”. I wonder what he does, modify the pictures with SW or uses filters on a traditional camera.
Hi there! I’m the guy behind the “guy’s pictures” on flickr! :-) Thanks for the link! and thanks for liking my photos!
Say, I totally missed that Eyegasm comment! ha! where was that one! That’s cool! eyegasm! The way I achieve that super-real funky technique is called HDR which stands for High Dynamic Range. I shoot multiple exposures of the same scene. So I do a dark exposure, a regular exposure, and a light exposure. The dark exposure enables me to get more details in the highlights. The light exposure brings out details in the shadows. :-)
hey, thanks for taking such cool photos! and for telling me about HDR.
I like your whole site actually. you’re funny. I don’t think anyone will read this though because this entry was a long time ago.
I was doing a search on technorati.com for those who linked to my flickr photos.
Thanks for liking my entire site. :-)
I bet you get more readers to your older entries than you realize. 98% of the traffic to my site are to individual posts–people coming to the site from google and yahoo searches.
