Photography

So every time I run around like a mad person, clicking away on my camera, Amalie seems to be watching me like a hawk.

So, the other day where we took a "tourist" trip on the canals of Copenhagen, she got to be in charge of Brandy's camera. She was snapping away like a mad person, barely able to wrap her fingers around the camera. Sometimes making excited sounds, sometimes grunting is discontent.

So we got home and we popped the camere in it's dock and proceeded to transfer the pictures. To our big surprise the girl (who's only 6 at the moment), took alot of good pictures (and alot of bad ones too, just like the rest of us).

I took a few into photoshop, straightend a bit, auto contrasted, and cropped. Here's what I think is the best one:

The new opera house in the Copenhagen Harbor, captured by a 6 year old girl. Not bad, eh?

Trying to take the Popart concept a bit further, I found this excellent tutorial on how to create popart in Photoshop.

It's definitely not something for absolute beginners, but in a few hours I produced this:

Tonight I thought to that I would work on my Photoshop skills, so I loaded up a picture of my beatiful wife Brandy that I took just a few days ago.

I removed the background and made it black and white, then I ran it though the Cutout filter and saved four copies. I took each copy and colored it with bright colors. So here is my venture into pop-art alá Andy Warhol:

So, I am turning into a photo-geek. I guess it's just another geek thing to add to my list. Well, my wife uses the pictures I take on her blog, but I thought I would show people some of my favorites.

Saturday and yesterday I was out in search of winter pictures. It had just snowed and all the trees were full of ice, so I got a few interesting shots.

I hope you like them:
