    Most Interesting Flickr Photos Feb 2006 Video

    I made another Flickr video from the “most interesting” Flickr images. This time I did the month of February and made it play smoother. The photos we’re the “most interesting” as of March 25 2006. Click the “Link” button in the top right of the video to take you to that photo on Flickr. The song in the video is called I Know You Are but What am I? by Mogwai.

    Enjoy. 24 MB .mov

    My dad and I created a little time lapse the other night. We shot stills using his new Nikon D200 and put them together in quicktime.

  • Photos section working again

    My photos section is working again. Also, i’ve put back the “most interesting” images at the top. Its just better eye candy than my crappy pics.

    I’ve taken the photos section down… Please see my Flickr account.


  • Right Click Upload to Flickr

    If you’re using OSX Tiger and Flickr you might be interested in the ability to send images to Flickr by right clicking and hitting send. This is useful if you use Flickr for image hosting for your blog or you just want a really quick way to upload images to Flickr.

    • Download this automator action
    • Unzip and copy the Flickr.action file into ~/Library/Automator.
    • Open Automator (in your applications folder)
    • Add the Flickr Action to your workflow (you can search flickr and it should show up if you did #2 correctly)

    • Authenticate it
        • Click File, Save As Plug-in (name it Save to Flickr or whatever) and choose finder in the drop down menu.

          • Now right click on an image(s) anywhere in the finder and choose Automator -> Save to Flickr (whatever you named it) and your images are sent off to Flickr with the tags/privacy settings you chose.

        This automator action can be used in a number of interesting ways. For example I made a timelapse with it. You can combine it with other automator actions to do whatever you need. You could use Automator to crop 100 images and then upload to them all to Flickr at the end. If you want to loop your automator actions you can use this.

        If you want to take some screenshots and upload them to Flickr use these shortcuts:

        • ⌘-shift-3 (whole screen)
          ⌘-shift-4-drag box (whatever you select)

        Images are then saved to your desktop as Picture 1, Picture 2… Now its as easy as right clicking them to upload to Flickr…

  • Florence at sunset


      Florence at sunset by JRAWLS.

    "Sometimes you arrive in a new place and its overcast and raining and not all that nice.

    You wonder around all day looking for IT.

    You snap away all day.

    Then, at the perfect moment, the sky clears.

    The sun radiates through the clouds.

    Florence glows.

    And you only have a few moments to capture that amazing light…

    Click."


  • 20D Movie


    Rasko Ristic in Patryk Rebisz’s Between You and Me.

    The entire film Between You and Me was shot using a digital still camera (Canon 20D) in burst mode.  The film has a brilliant concept and amazing execution.  You can watch it here and read more about it here.

    If the idea of shooting a movie on a Canon 20D sounds familiar you’re probably thinking of the timelapse my friend Hugh thought up back in FebruaryYou can see the one we shot here.

    btw check out Hugh’s slick ass demo reel while you’re at it.

    Qoop Beta + Flickr Beta = Flickr picture books and posters.  I haven’t purchased anything from this service so I can’t speak to the quality/service levels but it looks awesome.
