I find this image very soothing - I was walking over a rock bridge (part of it is the foreground), and the frame that the bridge and trees make around the lake made this shot irresistable to take. I’ve used a low aperture number, F/3.5 I think, to reduce the depth of focus as much as possible and give it a sort of fairy tale look. I hope you like it.
So I was twittering away on Twitter, bored with my background - I wanted something personal. A collage of some of my images had been in my head for a time but I only managed to motivate myself today to do something about it. The best way I found to do it was by creating thumbnails of all the images I wanted to use (36 of them), open them in Photoshops photomerge option, arrange them in whatever way I saw fit, and let Photoshop do it’s magic. I didnt do much research on whether there is a better way but I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out as a first attempt. As a plan for the future, once I have 100 images that are worthy I’m going to make a huge 10×10 collage! That’s a couple of months aways still though, for the moment enjoy this one! Oh you can also check out how it looks on my Twitter page.

I had planned to post some night time photography shots I took earlier today but they turned out terrible (It was my first shot at shooting in the dark), so instead I’m posting an image of an everyday object, with a difference. By fiddling with the manual settings on my camera (exposure compensation, ISO sensitivity etc) you can create some very vivid imagery. During postprocessing in Photoshop I underexposed it by 4EV and it turned out as you see below. I think it looks pretty awesome. Can you guess what it is?
