Apple Introduces Revolutionary New Laptop
by Dave Wilson on Jan.08, 2009, under Computer
The guys at the Onion have come up with another scream in this “news” item about a new, easy to use Mac Laptop which has no keyboard. Money quotes are “with the MacBook wheel, everything is only a few hundred clicks away” and “virtually unbreakable unless dropped or hit.”
What a difference a face makes
by Dave Wilson on Jan.08, 2009, under Photography
I’m still working through last Saturday’s LBJ Ranch pictures and just produced this one. It’s rather similar to Smokey Smithy which I posted a couple of days ago with the obvious difference being that it has a figure right at the centre of interest. To my mind, this really makes the picture.
As in the last picture, I’ve processed this as a high contrast, almost monochrome image to accentuate the light and woodgrain textures. It’s not as dark as the previous one, though, giving it more of a “pencil drawing” feel.
