Lima Visit

Sunday, January 17th, 2010

We delivered the toy fridge and spent last evening and this morning with Mike, Jenn, Caleb and Owen.   It was a fun visit, and we staged some photos for manipulation before we left.   You can see the results here.  I think we’ll need a bigger place to gather for vacations — with all the additional children and grandchildren.

Ma, Pa’s talking to himself again.

I came across a post on using masks in Photoshop and had to try it.   This was done in Gimp using the same technique.   While not perfect, it’s pretty good.   I can see this being much fun in the future.

Foliage

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

The autumn colors have been spectacular the last week or two.   We’ve enjoyed the vistas, but we haven’t taken the usual hundreds of photos.  It seemed kind of silly to continue accumulating images that no one can really distinguish from the prior years’ versions.   Anyway, here are shots of our backyard today.    Yesterday, when we finished raking the front, there wasn’t enough in back to bother with.   After last nights rain, it’s a different story.

Can an iPod with Built-in Projector be Far Behind?

See the coming Nikon Coolpix S10000pj that can project photos and videos.

Wait — the iPod projector is HERE ;-)
