Shake it like a Polaroid picture

I have recently stumbled across one of the coolest FREE apps I have found in a long time. It's called Poladroid. It is a Oreo01Polaroid photo emulator. Just open the program, drag your image to the little camera on screen. The photo will pop out and then you can wait on the image to develop or use your mouse to shake it around to speed development. Very cool fun. It's as close as you can get to a Polaroid since they stopped making film. I've been having tons of fun with it. The novelty may eventually wear off but I doubt it since I'm easily amused.

Sky and light

8x12SecurityLight This light just caught my attention while I was parking my car a few days ago. There happened to be a dark cloud moving in on the right of the frame and a jet stream trailing away from the light. I always keep a camera handy for when a photo presents itself. Shot with a Nikon D200 and 50mm f/1.4 lens. Converted to black and white. Not much else in the way of post processing. What you see is what you get. Sometimes something simple can make a nice photo.

On a side note, you may have noticed a donation button in the right hand column of my blog. If you find anything useful on my blog or you just have some spare change laying around feel free to drop some coin. I'll try to keep posting when I come up with something interesting.

Til next time. Keep shootin'!
