let the madness begin
Let the photo madness begin.
I think from this point on out I'm going to try and post 1 picture per day.
I'm starting with this one, which is a tweaked one from the same series of walking around and trying to capture motion with a still camera. It's a subway exit into grand central terminal at rush hour. I like how iPhoto managed to really massage this picture into a whole deep and rich look. I'm quite impressed with iPhoto right now. It's a bit too simple sometimes, but it keeps me from having to fire up photoshop for just some simple levels adjustments and gamma shifting. My biggest gripe with photoshop right now is it's 'activation' scheme. I hate crap like this. In fact I hate it so much, I'm going back to CS1 without any second thoughts. I liked the 'bridge' software that they came out with... but I can't stand being assumed a software pirate. In fact - apparently I'm a 'casual pirate' because I use more than one computer and only purchase software for one of them. But after the joy of having a motherboard replaced by apple (free - thank you very much apple) and then being told by some of the software makers that I had bought software from that it was a 'second' computer, and I'd have to buy their software again, because it locked to the ethernet port... well. Let's just say I don't care so much about software company's rights to make profits at my expense.
But that's way too much bitching about software... back to the photos. Without further ado, I give you "exit2":
I welcome comments and suggestions.
