Pendulum Photos


I was looking at some pendulum photography on the web and decided to make some of my own. I used a string, flashlight, and "sticky hook". I put the camera on the floor and hung the flashlight above it from the ceiling. Then I used the "bulb" setting and my fish-eye lens to take these cool pics.

3D Buddha


This series of photos is sort of a strange mix. Some are from a temple I visited during "Buddha's Birthday", some I took late at night while playing around with a lighter, and others are 3D creations. If you happen to have a pair of 3D glasses you can check out the cool 3D images.

It's actually pretty cool how the 3D stuff works. You have to have two pictures from slightly different angles. Then using a freeware program I found, one image is turned blue and one image is turned red, and then they are overlapped with an offset. (At least this is what I'm pretty sure is happening, I could be completely wrong.)
