Black and White Portrait and the Grain of Film
After flipping through a few photos I took from a few years ago I came across this one. Sometimes I really love the look of the old film grain.  I basically just took the negative scan here and didn’t do anything to it, this is basically right out of the camera. You can replicate this…

Testing the Dagger Axis 10.5 Kayak at Chewacla
Last night we went out to Chewacla State Park for a very quick trial run to test out the Dagger Axis 10.5 Kayak. This boat is much smaller than our previous kayaks but is very stable, easy to maneuver, and tracks quite well. We got to Chewacla too late to give it a real good…

Merry Christmas to My Blogroll with Some Linklove
This is usually one of the busiest days for getting from place to place with family functions, but for us, it is normally a nice quiet day here at the house. Today was similar. I was able to take a nice bike ride and enjoy some quiet time here at our house. I do this…

Learning About Yourself Through Twitter Word Cloud?
Anyone else besides me love word clouds? I like them for many reasons but if they are not contrived of a set of words you put in manually, it may actually tell us something about ourselves. These of course are not scientific, but there are many API applications that will put data from parts of…

Epson Perfection V500 Scanner and Some Velvia Film
I have a hate hate relationship with scanners. I have had scanners of all types and none have been anything worth keeping and not throwing out the window at any nearby target. I started long ago with an HP slide scanner, actually one of the better performing scanners specifically designed to scan slides. Since I…
