Jackson Pollack rules, OK

Well I think this is great, just so 1973. Maybe it's just me. Try it out Pollack-freaks, you'll love it.

Martin Waugh's liquid art

Do you like painstaking high speed imagery, especially simple yet elegant pics of liquids? Well I do... check out Martin Waugh's superb collection.

Something different - images of attire through the ages

Well, images of IBM's business attire through the last 100 years or so. It's a bit different. Interesting to see see the ties widen and narrow over the decades. Worth a peak for historical reasons! (And yes, I do work for IBM but they have no influence over this site, and my opinions are mine alone.)

Digital artistry







Not sure exactly what this is, but it's certainly a gallery of art. Images, both photographic and painted, scanned and manipulated in Photoshop to be somewhat different from reality. I like the fact that digital imaging tools can do in seconds what used to take hours in the darkroom. Yes, I've succumbed to the "instant gratification" school.

A small warning, as some images may offend. It's also a bit arty-farty and should be taken in small doses.

Digital art

Well I hope it's art, anyway.

It's a bit weird, a bit colourful and takes some guesswork (a little, anyway) to navigate... but here it is. Please explore. It's meant to be arty-farty by the way and at times it may offend. So be careful where you tread as all may not be as it seems...

Location data for your JPEGs

PC World has reported on Sony’s GPS-based photo-location tagging device. Whilst no surprise, it’s interesting that it’s self-contained, rather than built into the camera (so far). Not so sure about the 10-hour battery life – seems a tad short. But yes, it’s useful, especialy for archivers. Many times I’ve wondered exactly where a photo was taken, and as long as we can shake off the “print” mentality that wastes paper – and actually use our digital images as our one true source, we’ll be OK. I’m sure GPS will be included in cameras real soon now, as well as all mobile phones, bicycles, cars… you name it. It’s a luxury but a nice one.
