Off The Wall

Pictured at the Blarney Woollen Mills a week ago.

Links of the Day

Retouching Magazine Cover - magazine photos have to feature pixel perfect beautiful men and women. This girlpower Flash presentation goes through all the little touch ups that go into improving a model’s eye, nose, cheeks, lips, breasts, waist and more until she is not the person who stood in the studio.

Digital Photography World has published some great articles recently including image management now that he’s gone completely digital.
John Engler’s photography section of his blog has lots of good stuff, including 3 introductory articles: What’s an SLR Anyways?, Film Speed, Aperture. (via)
I posted the last two US photos: Chatting and Shopping and Crowded Cork. The collection is complete!

Don’t go to bed reading a photographic book, you’ll get up again to “try out” the new techniques you read about.

I like the object that you’ve tried to catch and nice composition also. Donncha, was the sky really clear? Or did you something of post-processing?

Thanks Budi, that was the colour of the sky, and it was that clear! 10 minutes later clouds gathered and by the time we came down from the castle the day was a lot duller!

Wow, it’s really a lucky day. Thanks, for your comment in my last entry. I’ve answered it. Btw, thanks for your ‘link of the day’ today. I like that stuff. Do you have a plan to place it at the other place in this photoblog? I mean, I prefer not to combine the link and the photo in one entry. Just my opinion

The composition and colours are stunning in this. I really like how you take something common and turn it into soemthing beautiful. Great work.
