The last link today talks about how sometimes you get some really great shots when you don’t plan for them or think much about them – which is exactly what the above shot was for me.
Also, as a reminder – there’s a just a few more days left in March, so be sure to get [...]
I don’t take a lot of photos of other people – you’ve probably figured that out by now. But when I do, I often like to play around with the eyes in the photo in order to make them pop a bit more.
I have two methods that I’ve used to do this, so I’m [...]
I’ve had two requests recently that aren’t about photography or editing, but more about iffles.com in general.
The first was a request for an iffles.com icon to put in the sidebar of a blog to show support for this website. I’m pretty blown away that anyone would actually want to do this, but I surely do [...]
Don’t forget about March Mono Month for the iffles.com monthly themes. The above photo is one that I might not have converted to black and white if it wasn’t for the theme, and I’m so glad I did, because it turns out I like it better like that.
This looks a bit dangerous to me, [...]
I used to review Gimp scripts on this site, and it feels like it’s been a while since I did that. I’m changing the title of these entries now to Gimp Script Showcase, because I’m really not reviewing the scripts, I’m just showing off all the possibilities of them! So, I thought I’d let [...]
A couple of this week’s links have to do with food photography, which is definitely not my strong suit when it comes to photography, but since I cook a lot, I’m starting to get more and more practice – the photo above is one of my favorites, and I have to admit to drooling a [...]
So, this is the entry that has taken me over a month to write, for multiple reasons. A reader asked if there was a way to do HDR images in Gimp, and the short answer is No. The long answer is that a lot of people have tried to fake it (there’s actually [...]
The above photo was a pretty popular one of mine on flickr recently, so I thought I’d throw it in here even though it really has nothing to do with any of the links you see below.
Still a bit confused about aperture is and how it affects your photos? Check out this article about [...]
Well, its about that time that I show you my favorite photos submitted to the monthly theme group on flickr for February. The theme last month was “shapes” and…you guys, you did amazing! This is SO HARD for me, because I really want to showcase ALL of your photos because there were so [...]
This was not the entry I planned on writing tonight – which was one about faking an HDR effect in Gimp, since one of you asked for it many moons ago. Long story short – I think my computer really does not want me to write that entry, as this is the third time [...]
