PhotoSynth of Seogwipo

Here is my first attempt at using PhotoSynth. I went to an overlook point yesterday and took a LOT of pictures with the 80-400mm lens. It was soooo windy and cold! I picked the wrong day to try this. I then just ran a batch process on them to convert to JPG and then uploaded [...]

photography via bicycle

Riding around Seogwipo on my bicycle taking pictures. I’ve been riding around Seogwipo the last few weeks with my camera taking photographs. I’ve been taking macro images of oxidized paint for a new series. This was a little self portrait I shot along the way.

another useless animated gif

I swear I didn’t find this one on a porn site, it was on somebody’s friendster account. Nancy thinks this is what most men must daydream about. I’m not sure I agree, but I guess I did choose to post it. Oh well… I thought it was funny and strange. Do you dream of driving [...]
