It's been almost 4 months that I'm in Sydney now, and as promised it's now time to share with you some pictures from that great city.
The whole album is available on my Flickr page [en].
More photos are to come, so stay tuned!
Hey guys,
check out the resources page, I've just added a new plug-in for Softimage|XSI!
Actually its a simple operator that fit a curve to another curve in the same way than a linear path constraint would do on each point from the constrained curve to the proxy curve.
One month has passed since I arrived in Sydney to work for Animal Logic [en]. I had two weeks to find an apartment, and I was pretty much
lucky since I found a great share accomodation the first day I started
my inspections. Thanks to this, I had more than one week of holidays to
discover the city, and even if the weather was not on my side, the area
is really nice and seems to fit very well to my nature. I already feels
like home
I had a try to confront myself to the ocean, and ocean wins. I was not
scared about the sharks even if there was a few attacks recently, but
I'm definitely not used to face those huge waves. Unfortunately, I took
a few photos of the beach that I can't upload online because I don't
have a decent scanner for my 6x6 film negatives. Actually, I don't even
have a computer at home right now.
Anyway, I'm really happy to be here as a member of the animals. The
project we're working on is great and the people are nice and very
talented.
At the moment I don't have much time, but I'll manage to upload some photos of Sydney as soon as possible.
See ya!
Almost one year ago, I discovered a great webcomic named xkcd [en] ant that is written by an informatician/physician geek. It's just so much fun to read his different way of seeing the things, and to realize how familiar you can be with some of them.
Check out the samples below!
And by the way, happy new year everyone!
Until May 2008, I had no real interest in photography. I had a Canon Digital IXUS 400 that I had almost never used. Then I had to move to Paris for 2 months because of a job, and everything started there.
My friend Martin [en] kindly hosted me during that time, and showed me his recently acquired new camera: an old Hasselblad 500C/M. I just was amazed by the look of the body, and even more impressed by the resulting pictures. So magic, so cool, so... different from digital cameras! Then, I took my poor IXUS 400, and started to take a few pictures in the streets of Paris, but this time by trying to make some cooler pictures than I usually did. So, here came my first attempts to take the composition in consideration. In fact, I don't know anything about composition rules and all the theoric stuff, it was more a matter of feeling. "Hey, it looks better from this angle, and what about a few steps forward? Hmm...". After a few weeks, I was dreaming about buying an Hasselblad too. But how could I use a such camera, taking in consideration that I had no idea on how to setup the shutter speed and the aperture, and that I couldn't see any preview of the results as with digital cameras?
Back to Marseilles, and as a sign of faith, my IXUS 400 broke down. So, I decided to buy a Canon EOS 400D Digital to introduce myself to the manual settings. Then, less than a month later, I felt ready to jump to the film photography world.
