Drift Day 20

This past weekend, I staffed at drift day 20 in shawano. I didn't take alot of photos, but the only interesting one is the one below. Brian Peter Vs. I don't know... :)

It's silly looking

It's only because i wanna have what the cool kids already got!

Way back when...

before i got my D80, i shot with a point and shoot. and during the time i shot with a point and shoot, i purchased a manual 35mm film nikon FM10 with my cousin randy. i got that bad boy at helix, after we hung out in the developer.. or dark room. a friend of mine, that goes by the name of phill, had suggested that i use a certain b&w film by kodak. i don't remember which one, but it's still in my camera so if anyone wants to know... anywho, below is a few photos i got together.





randy is actually a cousin of my actual blood cousin, and who is a the bind between us? the beautiful lady above, madeline.

More HDR

Good Ol' Days

I seriously wish i was a kid again.


That's an old photo I scanned of my sister and me. being young, innocent,and naive, life does not get better than that.

Sunday Afternoon.

Rode through the city on Sunday. It was a lovely day indeed. Jesse wanted me to take photos of his bicycle. so that was done on the roof top.



yeah, and that's it.

New Trends: HDR

for my photoshop class, one of our projects to make a "how-to" magazine type style of a thing that has to deal with Graphic Design. For my how-to, I chose HDR, since i've been meaning to look into it and learn how to create it in photoshop.

those that do not know what HDR is, or what it stands for, it's High Dynamic Range. What you do is take at least three photos with high exposure, good exposure, and low exposure and put it all together in a HDR merge. what comes out is a photo that looks detailed.. i guess, or "sharp".

and for my crappy creations:

my first attempt, and it's before and after


second attempt, and it's before and after


third try, and it's before and after. inorder to really see this one you gotta click on it to see actual size, and it'll look better.. at least i think so. this one also reminds me of those catholic style portrait paintings...
