Original Article at Photography: How to take Sunset Photos.The impact of the number of focus/metering points Zoom and Vertical angle influence Color Range To illustrate yesterday’s training, here are 3 pictures I just shot out of the window with a point and shoot camera: This first example shows that the sun and the warm colors around represent a small amount of the total image size. To get a dark foreground I used centered metering which causes the foreground to be overexposed since the metering is dominantly done on the light areas around the center of the image. Using Zoom to focus on the warm color range around the sun and by lifting the camera we reduce the importance of the fore ground in terms of importance. The foreground is nicely over exposed while we get plenty of the warm gradients. Forget about the foreground, we just zoom in and try to capture the interesting edges of the cloud. Compared to what the eye sees in nature (first picture) we are here entirely in the heart of the warm color range with an over-saturation of orange/reds. The contrasts get harder and we may miss out on some gradients, however such pictures can be spectacular. Incoming search terms:how to take [...]

Original Article at Paul Allen Provocative Image.For Paul Allen Amazing, Paul Allen’s Super Yacht Octopus! Yesterday I went to meet some friends here in Vouliagmeni at the main beach. Some 5000 people who obviously could not afford to go for the usual holiday break during the week-end of August 15 were hanging out in the Vouliagmeni bay with a direct view on the Super Yacht Octopus belonging to Paul Allen. Imagine the people here on the foreground being some 20 meters away from my camera while the yacht is about half a mile off the coast! With its over 126 meters its the 12th largest private yacht worldwide. Bad Microsoft Image Imagine now, 5000 people having paid some 150 Euros for their Windows in bankrupt Greece having the beautiful view polluted by Microsoft Co-Founders Yacht a whole Sunday in the immaculate bay of Vouliagmeni! 5000 people paying 150 Euros, thats 750 000 Euros or about 1 Million of Dollars contributing to Paul’s 200 Million Dollar Yacht. Back in 2003, when the Super Yacht Octopus was delivered, people had already bought Windows 95, 98, Millennium, 2000 and just started upgrading to Windows XP .… not to speak about Office! And while I was calculating and imagining Paul [...]

Original Article at Super Yacht Octopus.Paul G.Allen parking his Octopus in Vouliagmeni This morning, Paul G.Allan’s Super Yacht, the Octopus was parked in the nice bay of Vouliagmeni. The Co-Founder of Microsoft obviously knows where the world is best! The 126.18 meter long Yacht looks quite impressive in the bay. Considering that the boat was the largest private Yacht when delivered in 2003 it still looks like the real thing ranking number 12. As you can see, there is only one of the two helicopters on board as I take the picture. The Yacht is equipped with it’s own submarine, a cinema, recording studio and about everything an average dude needs to live quietly and nicely off the hassle of these day’s financial markets.

Original Article at How to Style the WordPress Menu.WP Custom Menu with Rollover Effect This tutorial is based on a recent Custom Photo Blog Theme Development for WordPress on the base of Semiomantics XO. The Solutions apply to most any clean WordPress theme whereas some of the style sheet syntax may vary from theme to theme. The WP Photo Theme — XO Photo The Goal of the exercise was to build a site which will display on mobile platforms as well without the use of WPTouch Pro for example and which offers the possibility to navigate without zooming on mobile phones. This gave us the opportunity to style the Main Navigation (horizontal menu on top of the site. As we are on a photo site we thought about using Menu tabs with images and rollover effects which can be achieved either with sprites or as individual images. We opted for a solution without sprites in this case considering that the difference will not be material on this site. The screenshot shows the rollover effect as it has been taken while the mouse was hovering over the CONTACT tab. The Menu Normal View and the Hover View show the same picture, whereas we put a transparent black layer (85% [...]
