Flickeur is an amazing creation. It takes random photos off of Flickr and aranges them in a dreamy and sometimes bizarre way. When I say bizarre, I mean some of the transitions and and effects seem like they were made especially for the photos! It’s just like the description, the presentation can resemble […]
“In 1969 Willard S. Boyle and George E. Smith, while working at Bell Laboratories, designed the first Charge Coupled Device (CCD), a working version was produced just a year later. The CCD as we know has become the bedrock the digital imaging revolution including digital photography and video. They have just been honored with the […]
Cheap cameras reborn as kistchy playthings resplendant with glass beads, fake diamonds and rubies!
Gala Collection and more amazing old cameras!
“Much to the delight of many Leica aficionados there’s now more than a hint that Leica are readying a digital version of the M7 rangefinder camera. Stefan Daniel of Leica is quoted in the latest edition of LFI (Leica Fotografie International) magazine as saying “The Digital M will be introduced as a complete package that […]
“Bacteria genetically engineered to respond to light have not only resulted an image ten times sharper than a high-resolution printer, but could help bring researchers one step closer to printing complex biological materials, such as spider silk or human skin for burn victims.”

I’ve found an article which dissects the lomo effect and analyses exactly how the colour casts, contrast and just plain lomoness is produced. Thanks to Wolf Schweitzer for this interesting write up and of course not to forget he made some special Photoshop actions and image colour settings!
I haven’t tried these yet, but can’t wait […]
Here are some of the most amazing shots of water drops I’ve ever seen. With digital cameras it makes it so easy for anyone to try out techniques which would have tried anyones patience with just film.
There’s many unique examples which could never be duplicated again. For me that’s what makes it so special, the […]
“Samsung Electronics is planning to produce a new memory chip that will double the storage capacity of digital cameras, reports Reuters. It is expected that Samsung, which holds a 60% share of the NAND flash memory market, will launch a 16-gigabit chip late next year. NAND flash memory chips are built into memory cards or […]
Don’t you find it annoying when shopping catalogs try and explain what digital technology really is?
They have little boxes with ‘helpful hints’ and ’special facts’. Yet you’d learn more in a product manual. One of my pet peeves is the way digital camera resolution is marketed. The more megapixels the better is the adage and […]
With the help of flickr and some code you too can have random letters to make up any word you fancy.
You can get the addresses for fixed images or run the script to get random letters.

Here are the Lomoize action sets:
LomoizeV1
LomoizeV2
I hadn’t wanted to put them up for a long time as I had forgotten where I downloaded them. Now I feel dumb cause it was still from Redscreen via the Internet Archive.
I prefered the V2 action as it provided many more options and if I remember correctly […]
A year back when I found the first lomo action file and instructions I was so excited. Since then I’m finding more and more websites with actions and plugins available that tweak the original concept. Here are a couple that range from boosting your pics with more contrast and saturation to emulating cross processing. (first […]
Went out today to finish my roll of black and white film. It was sunny at first though became cold and cloudy later on. Unfortunately I forgot to take my filters with me. And my wider angle lens (I took my manual slr).
One thing that bothers me with b/w shots is that I don’t […]
Yay! Mike finally has some content on his updated site; diem perdidi. Hmm but where did the old layout go to?!!
Gah! he beat me to making a photo site. I still need to get enough time to scan all my photos and negatives. But now I have a digital camera, so it will […]
What follows below was originally on {http://www.redscreen.net/photolog/}
As the site seems down, I decided to post the info, as it might be of interest to others.
Please not that the images are presented at the size of 110×83 (from google) and not the original 300×226 as I did not get the chance to save them.
