Being a guitar player, when I spotted this little Guitar Hero Guitar, I had to buy it. It's the cutest thing I've ever seen! I sense a theme this week on my stream.

Today, I'm trying to write job descriptions for the 3 managers under my thumb, I mean supervision. It makes me feel as fuzzy as the photo. How do you describe what someone is supposed to do when they don't do anything to start with? LOL.

Keeping with an industrial theme, I shot this. It's a wind sock out in the assembly yard at work. I liked how the rusted pole and bright orange sock contrasted with the for once nice blue sky.

3D Repair Shop.


79/365 2009 3D Repair Shop


To get the 3D effect of this photo you need to cross your eyes until you see 3 photos. The middle one will be in 3D. After your eyes adjust, you will be able to look around the photo. Try not to move your head. It made me queasy doing that.



I learned this technique from Neil Creek on his blog here, www.neilcreek.com/blog/2009/03/20/kinglake-devastation-in...

3D Made Easy!!!

I found this on Neil Creek's Photography blog. Very cool. I had to try this technique for making 3D photos. Here is how on Neil's blog. I'll let him explain how to take the photos by just shifting a few centimeters over then combining in software made for putting the photos in the same image. I had to take some today. Here they are.

All he said was "Faster Daddy!!!". So I did. Then my stomach lurched. It said slow down. I listened.

A hint of her left eye is all that tells me she saw the camera. Judging by the squint, she was smiling big for me.

A touch of vignette to take the focus off the scattered toys.

I've decided to cut back on the coffee. I know this has a ton of caffeine in it but I only have 2 mugs compared to a whole pot of coffee.

Really tasty too.
