this is good, but i also need to get a job.. but that aside i went for a wander around town today cause i’ve never really taken any shots in the streets of brighton. i felt like just using the 10-22mm lens so a load of wide angle shots later i picked a few to fancy up in photoshop.
if anyone is interested (if not then just a record for me i guess.. those are the two options.) in photoshop i made a new channel and painted in a depth map to use with the lens blur filter to mess with shortening the depth of field. stuck it in alien skin exposure 2 to give a velvia-ish saturation and stuck on a subtle overlay that i had lying around to mess with the edges a bit. i deliberated about cropping them but decided to leave it.



big fail on keeping this thing updated, i would say i’ll try and do more for the new year but it probably won’t happen.
there has been a real shortage of shutter action recently, i blame the gloomy weather and getting back to doing stuff i havent done in years. i’ve written and recorded a bunch of songs, designed and built guitar effects pedals and custom electronics for a bunch of musicians which is working out really well. Currently in search of employment and some fellow musicians to get a band going again down in brighton.
i took a bunch of photos yesterday for our small christmas gathering, a very low key event this year due to some other serious stuff going on that i’m not getting into now. It was a shame to not have more family together so these photos are for the loved ones that we didn’t get to see this christmas.
i’ve got a photoshoot coming up for a friends company which should be a pretty special series of shots so check back in a couple of weeks (shoot is on the 8th of jan, maybe give me a few days for photoshopping) but for now here is just a select few from yesterday and one from today, see flickr for the others if your interested.
