Just a quick question guys…. if someone adds a photo to their fav’s, how can u thank them? or do u not thank them? hehehe…. i know that may sound a lil strange, but as u all know… im a newbie!!!!

Whew ….. getting so damn busy in here!!! I just wanted to let everyone know I try so hard to work back through all your journals and photos etc, making sure if you leave a comment back to me or a question …. I answer it as promptly as I can. Right now the only way I have to do this is to work through my favs and just manually look and see …. so if you are wondering why I have snobbed you … I HAVEN’T!! Thank you so much to those that have come to me and reminded me about a question or whatever …. I have no idea how long it would have taken me to have got back to that if you didn’t ask. I will do the same in return as well. / . / As far as this goes …. is anyone else really struggling to keep up in here? And what ways are others using to keep up with their contacts etc? I sadly, fav everything I comment on at the moment, and work back through my favs. Very tedious, but I can’t think of any other way to do it. Anyone got any better ideas?

Just after I had written yesterday´s journal my mind was turned by Joop to a prize which I was supposed to have got here on RedBubble. First I could not think out at all what that could be. I had not joined any competition yet, so how could I have got a prize …? Later that morning an email explained it all: I had been the “most prolific referrer” from last week. Due to my uploading so many shots I had placed myself into this position unknowingly. It was like being a virgin and getting a child, if I may use this German expression. Of course it is a really bubbling surprise, and I am very happy with it. I may spend 50 Australian Dollars here on RB. I do not yet know exactly how that does work, but I shall find out. You see that this is the great thing of doing something new: you are finding out new things again and again. Poor lightthinker! I fear I shall not go back … Getting too much attached to this site here now! This journal gives me the opportunity, too, to say a well-meant thank you to you for all your wonderful messages. Just as on deviantArt I just do not manage to thank everybody in person for their generally highly enjoyable, if not just enthusiastic comments and for their favs. As to the watchers, I shall keep trying to visit their galleries too. After all I like to know who is interested so much in my stuff that he or she is watching me now. And in many cases I find so much beauty that I immediately want to reciprocate. There will be an end to that too, I am afraid, as I am already watched by 74 of you by now. Great stuff in your galleries, I must say! All the best. Good luck and good light, Juergen

Anyway , exhibition where i participating with 4 pictures still open all this week till July 20 in old Jaffa Museum… / here the link to the journal with pictures from exhibition…: S-t-r-a-n-g-e on deviantART feel free to visit my FB fan page ! /

First, from me . . . Some de-mystification: / .. / There are three basic physical controls on a camera, digital or otherwise: / 1.) Focus / 2.) Aperture / 3.) Shutter speed. / .. / Of the three, Aperture and Shutter speed control exposure. Aperture also controls how deep the area is that will be in focus (depth of field) and Shutter Speed also controls how motion of the subject (and camera) is recorded. All the modes on a camera, Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Manual, Auto, etc. are just different ways of controlling Aperture and Shutter Speed. There are different modes for controlling focus too. / .. / Definitions: (from Camerapedia ) / 1.) Focus: to focus means to adjust a lens or its optical elements for achieving a sharp image of subjects in a certain distance from the camera / 2.) Aperture: An opening in a lens that controls the amount of light passing through it. (added by me – the aperture is variable in size and also controls depth of field / 3.) Shutter speed: The amount of time the shutter remains open. (from me: it controls not only exposure, but how motion is captured, i.e. blurred or frozen) / 4.) Depth of Field: The range of distances (from near to far) within which a scene will be considered to be “in focus” (several factors influence/control depth of field: aperture size, distance from subject, point of focus, focal length of lens) .. / Now, there are other aspects such as how sharp or how big an image can be made with a camera, or how much light is needed to make an image, or how colour will be represented. In film cameras we determine these with film format (such as 35mm, 6×6cm, 6×7cm, etc.), film type, colour balance, & speed (iso), colour temperature of the light source, and filter choices. In digital, colour temperature of the light source, white balance, sensitivity (iso), sensor size (you chose one when you bought your camera), color space, RAW vs. .jpeg, vs, .TIFF, etc. and other factors make these determinations. I’m trying to keep this brief, and I know it’s over-simplified. So, now some reading . . . / .. / I haven’t reviewed these word for word. They look good. / .. / How to use basic camera controls / Cambridge in Color’s Tutorials / Geoff Lawrence’s Free Photography Tutorials / Digital Photography School / Photoflex Lighting School (more of an advanced tutorial, and it’s aimed at selling their products, but I like it because it’s good!) / Tutorial9 (don’t know about this one, it looks interesting) / Short Courses – Using Your Camera (looks pretty basic) / About Com – Photography Basics (always a lot of info at about.com on just ‘about’ anything / Beginning Digital Photography (about SLR’s but applicable beyond that / Mark Raymond Mason’s Tutorials .. / Some other sites where you can post your work for review: / .. / Photo.net / Photocritiq / UseFilm / Betterphoto (now a paid site,but a first class one) / .. / Blogger (make your own photoblog, go solo, or allow co-authors to post with you) / .. / Some online photo-magazines I like: / .. / Shutterbug / Megapixel (English and French) / DPreview (included real-life photo samples from various cameras, many nice shots of London) / Steves Digicams / .. / Also see Sharon Mau’s Journal for a bunch more great links. (See comments below.) / .. / Learn why the smallest aperture doesn’t necessarily produce the sharpest image, here ’s true! Basic science! / ..

The following applications are free: / .. / G.I.M.P. The GNU Image Manipulation Program has a lot of the features found on high-end commercial photo editors such as Adobe’s Photoshop. It’s perhaps the best and most featured of the free image editors available, and as such will enable many artists on a budget to reach their potential. It’s FREE, people! / .. / Paint.NET A good basic image editor. Stable (at least on my systems). REQUIRES .NET Framework. (read the requirements) / .. / RealWorld Paint.COM A very basic,but competent editor. They have paid apps too. / .. / IrfanView “IrfanView is a very fast, small, compact and innovative FREEWARE (for non-commercial use) graphic viewer for Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000, XP, 2003 , 2008, Vista, Windows 7.” As recommended by RB’er Frisson . Thank you. / .. / Blender Blender is the free open source 3D content creation suite, available for all major operating systems under the GNU General Public License. I haven’t tried it, but I know others who do use it. Get into 3D for free. / .. / Free AAA 8bf plugins Photoshop plugins that are well worth a look. Created by a fellow named Jim Clatfelter. He has a ‘buzzer’ which renders painterly effects on images. / .. / About.com’s Top 10 Free Photo Editors for Windows Check ‘em out, folks. There are some there I didn’t think of. (see also this list at Basic-Digital-Photography.com Paid applications worth a look: / .. / Topaz Simplify Plugin at this writing it’s $39.99 I tried the trial and it’s on my list of wanna haves. Topaz Simplify is a Photoshop plugin. Topaz sort of fills the gap left by the demise of BuzzSimplifier (see below). / .. / NeatImage Noise filtration software available as photoshop plugins or a standalone application. I have the pro version of the standalone application which, when I bought it several years ago was around $89. It is perhaps the state of the art noise reduction software available. They did have a fully functional free version of the standalone which was prohibited by licensing requirements from being used for any commercial uses (read for sale images). It was fully functional. If you sell your work, you must pay and register. / .. / Terragen Terragen is a 3d landscape generator capable of stunningly beautiful output. Like most 3d apps, it has a learning curve. From the website: “You are required to register your copy of Terragen if it is for commercial use, as specified in the License Agreement presented to you when you install or first use Terragen. If you only intend to use Terragen personally, on a non-profit basis, registration is optional and you may continue to use the unregistered version of Terragen free of charge.” Registration for Terragen Classic is $100. Still a lot less than Bryce, Hexagon, etc., which are high-end commercial apps. / .. / Other informational or service related sites: / .. / PlugsNPixels “where you can get one-stop, organized information about creativity and productivity software and related educational materials more quickly and easily than from any other source.” -quote from the site. / .. / MyFreeCopyright A copyright registration site that gives you a digital fingerprint of your work so you can prove infringement if it occurs. I don’t use this service, but I see it being used by others here on RB and elsewhere. Check it out and make up your mind. / .. / A couple of sites added by RB’er Syd Baker / .. / So sad, here are some very good things we have lost: / .. / optikVerve virtualPhotographer plug-in formerly at www.optikvervelabs.com this was a really ‘neato’ photoshop plugin and it was free. If anyone finds that this has been picked up (legitimately) by another vendor, let me know (no warez links, please!) / .. / Buzz Simplifier What a loss that Fo2Pix is out of business! I wanted this one and never ‘got around’ to buying it – my procrastination has cost me so much over the years…..(sighs…)

My Top 25 images of 2009 I hope nobody included minds (if you do, give me a shout and I will remove) but I thought it would be fun to add a journal entry detailing my Top 25 favourites of the year (or, at least, since I joined Red Bubble). They are not in order of preference, just my Top 25. Feel free to comment on the set. I hope you enjoy, especially if you have not seen them already. Also, wishing all my fellow Bubblers a very Happy New Year. I look forward to both enjoying your new images and sharing mine with you. Thank you for all of your encouragement with my new hobby.
