Episode 036: Nightvision on a lazy Sunday Afternoon
March 11th, 2008
This week you are in for a strange show. I try to make an image out of a not so good night shot by Stuart Martin from New Zealand. Stuart had his camera for three days and was experimenting with it. He shot the Christmas decora- tion of his neigh- bour but only got a dark and a bit blurry image.
With no specific goal in mind I just played around with UFRaw and layers in GIMP and got a quite nice result. The 100% crop you see here is a bit like a painting, the full image looks like seen through night vision goggles. The lesson to learn except a refresh of using UFRaw and layers: Play around! Make experiments! There is no right way - just interesting results.
Stuart has an incredible collection of links to sites about language - from fun to pure science.
Don?t forget the challenge! Make a monochrome image and post it in our meetthegimp.org photogroup at 23 and be sure to use the tag ?mtg-monochrome?. The challenge ends March 31 1600GMT and I?ll draw a winner by random choice.
