July - kalidascopeHow I did it -Ok, a bit out of the ordinary. This image was created using an iPad application call Kaliedoscope. The original image as seen above was taken with a Nikon D80 and 100mm MACRO lens. Image was optimized in Photoshop Lightroom 2.0. I then brought the image into my iPad and ran the application. The program has many options, and continues to generate random kaliedoscope images. They can then be captured by pressing a button and saved. I then brought the image back into Lightroom and adjusted some contrast etc. The image can also be created to take up the entire frame. However, I like the true kaliedoscope type image
COMMENTS: I was born in Brooklyn , NY and started my love for photography when I was 13 years old. My father had given me a 35mm Argus C3 he purchased while in the Army. I used that camera until I bought my first SLR, a Miranda. I had my own darkroom for years and eventually moved to processing color Cibachromes. I moved to Florida in 1974 and continued my love for photography. I have owned several pieces of Nikon gear over the years. I embraced digital photography early on. I currently own a Nikon D90 and D80 used for backup. I have more lenses than one could every carry. I use a Gitzo Traveler tripod. I have an Olympus SP5500 I use as a point and shoot. I belong to the Pines West Camera Club and have won several competitions. I have had images published in Popular Photography and the US National Park Newsletter. I won 2nd prize in the US National Parks Annual Photo Contest. I enjoy all types of photography. I especially love, landscape, nature, macro and sports. I have done freelance work for the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel. I have travelled for business over the past 25 years, and have visited many cities in the US, Europe, and South America. I also have the Florida Everglades at my door step. I use a MAC computer system and Epson P2200 printer. I use Adobe Photoshop Lightroom for most of my digital work, along with CS3, Dynamic Photo HDR, and various Photoshop Plug ins. I like traditional photography, but do like to experiment with the abstract for fun.
