Photo Assignment

This one is a lot easier than it looks. Most SLR cameras have the ability to do this. This assignment will help you learn more about your cameras features. I am sure you can find a wealth of information on how to do this online. Here are the basic things you need to do:
1) You will need a tripod or a solid place to put your camera.
2) low light in a must. Take these at night.
3) Play with your exposure length. Try shooting at 1, 3, 5, 10 or even 30 minutes. I have done some or stars I let it stay open for an hour.
4) Be creative and have fun.

I will post a new assignment about every 2-3 weeks.

AGS Test

One Great Game

In this game CW and I got 10 kills in the warthog before we died. In this picture I was invisible with a gravity hammer crouched down so the warthog could not see me and just as it passed I hit the warthog causing it to fly across the screen then walked over and hit it again for a double kill. I ended up with 12 medals for this game.

Christmas photo contest

This is my picture for this contest. Seems like paper is always in the air during the frantic gift opening Christmas morning.

Photo Contest

Since its Christmas time we are going to make this one a Christmas theme. 1-2 pictures of Christmas at a different angle. Use perspective to show Christmas. I don't just want a picture of a tree or some lights. Maybe some close ups or looking through a tree. The key is interesting Perspective. Deadline Monday Dec 17th. Since this is Christmas the winner will get a gift and I will let my wife wrap it so it looks good. 

The picture above is a great example from Ashley and if she submits this the bar for this challenge will be set high.

Daft Punks

I have always enjoyed the Daft Punks but this video has to be one of the coolest thing I have seen in a long time. It just goes to show that you dont need millions of $$$ to make a great video just be creative.

Make sure you watch to the end its crazy how fast it gets

Silver Brickwall LEGO Ring
We love LEGOs, and in honor of their recent 75th anniversary, we thought we'd mention this Silver Brickwall LEGO Ring ($80). The sterling silver ring features the familiar 2x2 LEGO pattern, and comes with six different color pieces to snap to the ring, adding versatility to an already cool package. (Thanks Uncrate)

And the Winner is........

John wins with the best out of all the pictures sent to me. Sorry no more extensionson this one.

I love Kristy

Our last day at the beach it was a great end to a great trip.

First Ghost from John

Love this one John

New Challenge

Jill requested a new challenge and I just so happened to be thinking of one for the past few weeks.
Subject: Ghost
Due: July 5th
Desc: this can be done with photoshop or a timed exposure(It could be done one other way but I will wait and see if anyone figures out the other way to do this). If you need more help than that let me know.

OUCH!

What a mess! This was our bathroom and some day with a little luck will be again.

Cake Face

Typical night with the peterson's. After this Kristy tried to get him back and Joe had a melt down. I wish I had video of that.

WTF

Why do I see Cami purchasing these as soon as she sees this? Sorry Cami not to be mean but I thought of you the second I saw this trash bag.

Top 10 Mac OS X tweaks

This is for all the Mac fans out there. Sorry if you are reading this and don't have a Mac maybe some day you too can have a computer that doesn't suck!


Check out this link to Lifehacker they have some great ideas

Mac OS X is a great operating system out of the box, but a few simple customizations can make it even better. OS X ships with some odd and sometimes inconvenient default settings, and it's got a few nifty little perks for power users who enable them, no third-party software required

Guess Who I Ran Into Today?

With Easter just around the corner I thought it would be fitting to post this picture to remind everyone about the true meaning of Easter.






Wait for it..........

Dead Bunnies!

Bits and Pieces

No easy way to explain this so above is an example of our next project. Due date Sunday April 8th. For this one I did it the old fashioned way. Real film, Dark room, Scissors and glue. The idea is to take allot of Little pictures and piece them together. This can be done by printing them as a contact sheet putting them all together and taking a picture, or for the more computer literate of us this can be done in Photoshop.
I had a friend at ASU that did this with his bike and a copy machine. He then put the life size picture of his beloved bike on the wall. It was pretty cool at the time.

A Series of Shapes

This will end Friday. Next weeks will be a free for all submit your best 2 pictures. I will be out of town all of next week so I will try to get something but cant make any promises.
