Up close encounter with Humpback Whales in Maui – January 25, 2010

29 Jan

Amazing whalewatch trip. January 25, 2010. 2 humpback whales come right up to our boat, close enough to touch. If you go whalewatching on Maui, make sure to choose a small boat such as those offered by Ultimate Whale watch, www.ultimatewhalewatch.com. The smaller boats get out to the action quicker, can move around to different locations quicker, and allow you to have the closest possible interaction with the whales. All photos and video in this presentation were captured with a Nikon D90 DSLR – 18-70mm Nikkor zoom lens.
Video Rating: 4 / 5

National Geographic photographers can find themselves in unusual, extreme and potentially dangerous situations, trying to capture the ‘never before seen’ images the magazine is famous for. However, contributing photographer Paul Nicklen’s story of his close encounter with a huge Leopard Seal (one of the top predators in the Antarctic), shows there’s still opportunity for surprises in the job.

Arachnophobia 3D: encounter between a spider and a fly in stereo 3D yt3d:enable=true

02 Aug

Modern Stereo 3D Art : www.21horizon.com 3d animation in stereoscopic 3D showing the encounter between a spider and a fly. Not for people with arachnophobia. For viewing please use red anaglyph 3D glasses. This is my very first 3D animation and every element was designed to enhance the 3D effect. The spiders, think of a black widow or a tarantula, are embedded in a spider cob in form of a tunnel. This creates a stereo ramp, allowing the viewer to glide into the depth of the created space.

DeepSketch is the first anaglyph (coloured) 3D painting app for the iPad. With a pair of old-school 3D glasses you can sketch and paint awesome art that literally pops out of the screen! Get the app from the App Store here: itunes.apple.com In version 1.6 DeepSketch adds support for the Adonit Jot Touch, a wonderful pressure sensitive stylus for the iPad! With the Jot Touch you can easily vary the thickness of your lines by applying pressure when drawing. You can even control the depth of your 3D strokes by pressing harder on the stylus! With DeepSketch you can create beautiful pencil-like sketches which you can trace in 3D. All you need is an iPad, a pair of coloured 3D glasses and your imagination! For more information about the app, please visit www.machineboy.com.
