  • Some Flickr alternatives

    Posted on 2008-05-07 20:19:36 Tagged with , , , , , ,

    Every once in a while it's good to take a look what alternatives to a service you use and like very much. So given the current Microsoft/Yahoo-dicussions, I thought it was once again time to look at some of the "alternative" photo communities out there: Smugmug, Zooomr, 23hq, Fotocommunity and ipernity. I didn't really try most of these services but just looked at their feature-set to see if they offered what I need. Also don't expect a complete comparison off these sites here, since this would probably easily fill a 20 pages article. I just want to point out a few things I've noticed.

    So let's get started.

  • Scattered Images

    Xbox 360 Scattered without FrameA few hours ago, Heather Champ of Flickr made this post on the official Flickr blog and introduced me to something that I absolutely want to give a try: Scattered Images. That's basically a single image composed of tons of other images (all of the same object or scene) but thanks to different weather, light conditions or camera settings it looks like a mosaik (or in some cases as if seen through a crystal). On the left side you can see my own first attempt with this (sorry, had nothing better within reach right now :P).

    For some examples, check out Rob Birze's astonishing collection.

  • I <3 Lightroom

    Posted on 2007-05-22 09:55:23 Tagged with , ,

    For the last couple of days I've been playing around with Adobe's Lightroom. Probably because of my lack of talent nearly all my photos have only a quite low contrast and dull-looking colors and for thing like that LR seems to be great. With just a few clicks you can improve a photo from being "meh" to "not that bad" :-) Just an example:
