iPhone 3G White Unboxing

3G is much faster than EDGE and approaches Wifi speeds. My 6GB data plan will come in handy.

SEPIA! – June 24, 2008

I really dig the vintage look. It was hard to find good black and white candidate photos, but I like how these turned out.

Tilt Shift – May 24, 2008

I’ve been playing around with a photographic technique known as Tilt Shift. By manipulating the focal point of a photo, you can make the objects look like a miniature scale model. Here are a few of my favourites (others are on my Flickr). Click on the photo see the larger version. I also uploaded the originals for comparison.

I took these photos without tilt shifting in mind so there’s room for improvement, but for a first go at this, I’m happy with the results. A great example would be something like this.
