Well, the Microsoft has Landed on the Jed
I spent all day getting my workstation to build a set of pretty intense C# projects. I’m impressed that we got it working in a day (not counting the four days it took to straighten out my Visual Studio install on my Vista workstation). Having developed projects in Perl, PHP, Java and C, and having…

Sunset, Aldrich Rd, 2010-02-19 (Panorama)
Another wide format (dual monitor) desktop background. This included a clever combination of a hard-light filter and a graded mask…otherwise there was only one other trick and you better guess what it was. (No, it was not in post processing.) Print version.

Computer Shopping!
My mom just asked for advice on a computer. C’mon! I can’t pass that up? I showed her some prices on parts to setup a dual 24″, dual SSD, Intel i5 workstation for not too much. I should post links but not tonight. I’m soooo surprised this combination doesn’t pop out in searches easier. (Me:…

Mt Baker from Aldrich Rd (Panorama) 2010-02-19
Here’s an attempt at making a very wide desktop background: 2560×1024. There are obviously better photos I could have chosen, but this one was recent. I think I need to figure out how to turn my bicycle into a tripod. I could certainly lose the shake, even on a 28mm lens. Feel free to tease…

Monitor gamma, cont.
A very fundamental idea wandered my way on the topic of adjusting my digital photography work-flow for … anonymous (for lack of a better term) monitors. These monitors have not been adjusted by anyone, likely. Their settings typically would reflect little more than entropy. Do I care for all my work to look good on…

Wildly Varying Monitor Gamma
With all my recent photo work, I’ve started developing an eye for how my photos are looking on different monitors. I have an LG monitor at home for which I have a ICM profile for. I can get Ubuntu to load this profile using xcalib. At work, I have two Viewsonics that don’t live on…

Tree Sign, Ravenna Park, 2010-02-15
I’ve walked by this sign in Ravenna park for years. I’m guessing it used to be a yield sign. Now it’s a macabre symbol that reminds me much of the art I produced in middle school. Print version.

Purple Blossoms, Bellingham, 2010-01-18
I was surfing around looking at campsites tonight. Suggestions appreciated. If this February is a sign of what May will be like, I’m all for it. Consider how vivid these blossoms were in January. Any places you like to camp? Please share. This was a brief experiment tonight doing a “dissolve filter” and a mask.…
