Ivan’s family also claims that his hands […] This weekend Katie had her Junior Recital for her Bass Performance degree at UNT. It was a big deal and she practiced long and hard. She played a range of music from Bach to John Williams to this little ditty just to show some range. She had a really good turnout with friends, family and […] There are always big iconic hits to mark your musical progression. They are like touchstones, they let you say “that was a great time/genre/band and maybe it was. Or, maybe, it was an anomaly, a kind of freak musical accident that produced something great. Perhaps it’s just your nostalgia that elevates it beyond it’s […] This was a German ad campaign for an employment agency, the text in the pictures say Life’s too short for a bad Job Some of them border on the creepy but I think they are pretty effective. .

Our eyes see most of it but not all of it, maybe values 20-85. A photograph (and print or display on a computer) is less than that, for arguments sake, lets say between 35-60. This is one of the reasons a photo can’t fully express a sunset or light streaming through a stained glass window, we see the values between 20-85 (and feel even more than that) but the photo we take only shows the middle 35-60 colors and intensities.

If done poorly the photo just looks overblown and garish, if done well it can actually come closer to the “real” feeling you had when you saw it in person. Of course, first you have to be a good photographer then you have to become an HDR […] Giant Texas Homecoming Mums […] Linda and I are going to another concert. We will be hanging out with The Whigs, The Black Keys and the Kings of Leon when they play in the outdoor venue The Cynthia Woods Pavilion in the Woodlands later this month. I like all 3 of these bands and have provided a sample below for […] Where to start? OK, I have this fantasy of traveling from here to there with the sole purpose of eating and acquiring food.

I will stop at Sonnys, I will buy King Syrup and will eventually acquire several […] Dalton Ghetti was born in Brazil and started carving soap and bark when he was a child. Now he lives in Connecticut and he carves pencils . . . with a needle and a razor blade. He doesn’t use any magnification and some of his works take years to complete. Kinda beats the hell that […] |
