Kingscote Kids (A Photo Series)

I asked, they said yes, they had fun whilst I shot these funny and amazing photographs. I told them I would tag the photographs with 'kingscotekids' and would be on flickr.com. Girl: "Flickr? What's that?" Me: "A website. F L I C K R, no e, dot com. Looks for kingscotekids." Them: "Cool \ Rad... Continue Reading →

Stephen has Needs…

Seems I missed the point of this meme. In order to obtain the 10 things that I apparently need, I'm supposed to use Google to find usable statements that are preceded by 'insert-name-here needs'. To give each statement some validity, I've put the corresponding link upon the end of each.It took a while, but I... Continue Reading →

Stephen Needs…

I always enjoy a meme that involves honesty, truth and the human brain. Found via another Steve, I hereby list my 'needs': Stephen needs nothing more than a new direction.

Importing Content with CSS

Tonight I found some cool CSS at StopDesign. See that navigation at the top of screen?

He Jumps, He Shoots, He Scores!

Comedy of Colours

I was digging through my archives looking for interesting photographs that had people in them to test the Orton Effect upon. When I found this, I changed direction. I figured I'd have more fun breaking this into three separate layers so I could put some colour back into the wall-art whilst making the wall monochrome.... Continue Reading →

The Other F Word

There is an old saying that's often said by people when people beginning an arduous yet not nearly so impossible project: "Failure is not an option". For those of us of a less-cynical, more adventurous and self-forgiving attitude, I have refined this to a more positive statement: "Failure is a consideration but not a hindrance:...

Image Manipulation with GIMP

Wait, there is one more thing to add to the list of unknown fact about me that I forget to mention. Amazing, it's the most enjoyable hobby I have after photography: 1. I enjoy using GIMP to manipulate my photographs. So much so that when I found this photograph on @Rant's flickr gallery, I spent... Continue Reading →
