TimeShoot

Tomorrow (5/8/08) at 12:00pm ET is the next CameraCon “TimeShoot”.  Not sure where I’ll be at that point in the day, but I’ll be sure to have a camera with me.  Hopefully I’ll be able to get something interesting.

You can see the results of the previous TimeShoot on Flickr here.

Small thumbnails of iPhone wallpapers

I’ve been playing with creating an Automator workflow and Photoshop actions to create iPhone wallpapers.  A few samples are above.  If you’d like to use any of them, you can download them here.

Miniature

Miniature boat

I’ve been playing with adding tilt-shift effects to some travel photos.  The hardest part is getting the color saturation just right, in order to give objects in the photo that “plasticky” feel of models.
