    Pretty much ever since I started an online gallery on my main website I’ve being geotagging my photographs at the album level. This has meant that, as well as being able to provide locations per album, I’ve been able to provide views of my photographs via a Google Earth feed, Google Maps and Virtual Earth. Recently I’ve also been working on some ruby code that makes it easier for my to write querying scripts for the photography on my main site. This evening I realised that I could pull the two threads together and easily produce a map of my works on RedBubble where the work is on my main site and is geotagged. This is still in the early stages of testing but here’s a few examples of what I can done (fingers crossed they work for you): A map of my RedBubble works on my RedBubble wrapper site.

  • Putting my photography in its place

    Now that I’ve got my ruby code that lets me query the photography on my main site in a nice and simple way running smoothly I’ve been toying with some more things that I can do with it. After doing the geoname hack the other day I realised that I now had everything I needed to generate a list of all of my albums broken down by the nearest centre of population. One very short ruby script later (the heart of which is a single line of code, albeit a rather long line of code) plus a little bit of php hacking (my main site was developed ages ago in php—I’ll probably move to rails one day) and I had what I wanted. So, here we go: all my albums broken down by nearest centre of population. The layout could do with some improvement and I’ll probably get around to that some time soon but, for a quick hack, it works well and is actually quite handy (at least for my own purposes).

From this temple Hermias of Atarneus, a student of Plato, ruled Assos, the Troad and Lesbos for a period of time, under which the city experienced its greatest prosperity. (Strangely, Hermias was actually the slave of the ruler of Atarneus*.) Under his rule, he encouraged philosophers to move to the city. As part of this, in 348 BC Aristotle came here and married King Hermeias’s niece, Pythia, before leaving to Lesbos three years later in 345 BC. This ‘golden period’ of Assos ended several years later when the Persians arrived, and subsequently tortured Hermias to death. The Persians were driven out by Alexander the Great in 334 BCE. Between 241 and 133 BC, the city was ruled by the Kings of Pergamon. However, in 133 BC, the Pergamons lost control of the city as it was absorbed by the Roman empire. St. Paul also visited the city during his third missionary journey through Asia Minor, which was between 53-57 AD, on his way to Lesbos. From this period onwards, Assos shrunk to a small village, as it has remained ever since. Ruins around Assos continue to be excavated.

  • Our world is a symphony of harmonious colors. / The selection for the harmony of this series would be suitable for any beautiful melody.

  • My first try to build a little planet of my surrounding neighbourhood, Cato Street in London, using my new Sigma 10mm fisheye lense and a Nikon D300.

  • ...drawn on a sheet of card much too large for my scanner, even if I scan it in chunks like my other, smaller, drawings, so I had to photograph it. This drawing is based on this photo that I took in downtown Ottawa on December 2nd, 2007.

  • This is a Prismacolor coloured pencil drawing, drawn on 9 inch by 12 inch sketchbook paper, based on a photo I took in May of the tail end of a Ferrari F430 parked in the parking lot of the Merivale Market plaza in the Ottawa suburb of Nepean, with New Look Eyewear and Nando’s Flame-Grilled Chicken in the background. This is the second drawing that I’ve done of this exact car, with the first one being an oil pastel drawing of the front and side of the car at a dutch angle. What can I say? I really like drawing the Ferrari F430, and the photos I took of this particular car in May (and then, again, in early September), are the best photos I’ve taken of the F430, especially the May photos since the bright sunlight really brought out the Ferrari red. One thing I did differently this time is that I applied multiple even layers of base colour: pink, vermilion, and then crimson, before I even started local shading, in order to make the Ferrari red really stand out, and using a light colour as the bottom base colour made it much easier for me to add white highlights, to make this well-polished and well-waxed Ferrari really shine. Another reason I chose to illustrate this particular photo is that I like the background detail of two businesses I see nearly every day.

  • This is an oil pastel drawing based on this photo of the Chevy Camaro Concept car that was used as Bumblebee in the Michael Bay live-action Transformers movie, which I photographed in the parking lot of the Athens Coney Island Diner in the Detroit suburb of Royal Oak during the 2007 Woodward Dream Cruise, which I attended as a guest of General Motors FYI Blog. I printed out a copy of the photo, traced some guidelines on it, and then scaled them up to 22” by 28” posterboard size to keep the major elements in the drawing roughly proportionate to the original photograph, but, otherwise, I drew it all by eye. I try to keep a balance between impressionism and realism, but not photorealism. Photorealism requires a lot more work than I am willing to put into any given image, and, in any event, I took the original photo, so I already have a photorealistic image of this car called a “photograph”. I like producing drawings that sort of look like photos if you see them from across the room, but, when you get closer, you can clearly tell that it’s not; that’s my “ideal”. Of course, I drew this in thick oil pastels, so you’d have to stand a lot further back to be fooled compared to my better coloured pencil drawings.

  • This is my oil pastel drawing based on this photograph of a 1965 (?) Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible that I spotted in the parking lot of Emerald Plaza on Merivale Road in the Ottawa suburb of Nepean in July 2007. I chose to illustrate this photo because I was looking to draw a Corvette anyway, and I really liked the reflection of the scattered clouds over a blue car.

  • This is an oil pastel drawing I did commemorating the awesome time that someone parked a Ferrari F430 in the supermarket parking lot in which I work (Food Basics in the Merivale Market plaza on Merivale Road between Clyde Avenue and Baseline Road in the Ottawa suburb of Nepean). It’s based on this dutch angle photo of the Ferrari F430 that I spotted in May. The drawing is oil pastel on poster board (Bristol Board) and measures 28 inches by 21 inches. I mainly used Mungyo medium and wide oil pastels as well as Reeve’s medium oil pastels for the bulk of the colouring, but I must give an appreciative nod to Pentel Oil Pastels, which are easily the best narrow oil pastels I’ve tried for finer details in that they’re sturdier than the other narrow ones I have and didn’t break in two the moment I applied any pressure to the card. It took me three weeks to draw this, though I could probably have drawn it in a couple of days if my time wasn’t split between work and various other time wasters. I wish I had a way to scan this because the photograph I took doesn’t actually capture all of the subtleties of the shading, especially on the front bonnet. Alas, the only place in Ottawa that I could find that does full-sized art scanning charges triple digits to scan a piece this size.
