29 Jan

This is an update to my previous video, which is posted as a video response. I made a higher quality version of this one because my older video was nominated to be a Youtube Partner video (yay!) but I can’t use it because of the Kingdom Hearts footage for my intro and the Breaking Benjamin music in the background. Anyways, same video, just higher quality and slightly more detailed. Enjoy! 😀 A foolproof and 100% working method on how to get any Pokemon in any of the Pokemon DS games. If you are using Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HG or SS, follow the same exact instructions as that in the video. If you are having problems seeing the video, here’s a tutorial: 1) Go to www.pokegts.us (for non Black and white users, go to www.pokegts.us 2) Select the category you want (All Pokemon is recommended) 3) Select a Sub Catagory (Generation 1 = FireRed and LeafGreen, Generation 2 = Gold and Silver/HeartGold and SoulSilver, Generation 3 = Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, Generation 4 = Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, XD is Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness, Colosseum is Pokemon Colosseum, Generation 5 is Pokemon Black and White [All the names will be in Japanese]) 4) Select the individual Pokemon you want 5) Customize the Pokemon in any way you desire (except Nature) 6) Go to the bottom and hit Submit Custom Stats DO NOT CLOSE THE WINDOW AFTER HITTING THAT! 1) Go to your DS and load the Game. 2) After pressing start, scroll down until you see Nintendo WFC Settings 3) Click the big blue button 4) Click

My 1st decent attempt at capturing a time lapse of the star filled night sky. To my surprise it captured more than what I hoped. particularly a nice frame of a shooting star amongst other anomalies. I was surprised to see how busy a small portion of the night sky can be! 30 second exposures were used to make up the time lapse. ISO 3200 Music composed and created in Sony Acid Music Studio 8.

Floral Auras

PLEASE click the link to view the larger size. It really makes a world of difference.

This is a new blend of photos of flower arrangements. The detail of the petals and leaves in the larger size is quite pleasing. It has such a natural, healing feel and also is reminiscent of a meditation medallion, or a mandala, that I named it floral auras.

Working with 32-bit HDR Images in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1

27 Oct

The first official Update for Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 has been released! This free update fixes some irritating bugs and adds support for raw files for a host of new digital camera bodies but what excites me the most about Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.1 are the understated words “now able to work with 32-bit HDR files.” In geek-speak, this means that Photoshop Lightroom can now work with 32-bit Tif HDR images. In plain English, this means that we can now polish up our high-bit High Dynamic Range images using all of Lightroom’s powerful and efficient Develop Module tools. As a professional landscape photographer I have dabbled with exposure blending techniques for many years. Over the years, I have tried to master at least four different HDR image compositing programs but none of them ever felt fluid for me. I still need an additional program to merge my bracketed exposures together but now I can 99% of the work with tools that I already know and love. Thanks to this new feature in Lightroom 4.1 I can now go from Photoshop Lightroom 4.1 to Photoshop CS6’s to create my 32-bit High Dynamic Range Tif file and back to Lightroom for further image refinement in almost no time. I am so pleased with this new routine that I made this video tutorial just to demonstrate this techniques speed and simplicity. For more info on some of the other improvements in the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom update see thelightroomlab.com
