Tag details

While the photo has been around for over 175 years, the current trends in digital photography point to the onset of a new golden age of photography. This has to do with the fact that a whole new set of rules are being developed, and many of the old rules are being either broken or redefined.

Many of the same techniques that were done in the days of Ansel Adams are still valid, but now with tools like Adobe Photoshop, you have many more methods of working with a photo, as well as many more opportunities for manipulation, and even dishonesty.

Even the definition of what a photo is has changed dramatically in the last 20 years. Since 1826 when the first recognized photo was taken by Nicephore Niepce, a photo was something that had substance and could be held in your hands. Today, it can still be that, but now it can be shared on a website, placed in a digital picture frame, or even projected on to a wall. Only time will tell what a photo will become in the future.

    Footsteps in the Mirror — Authority Authority: 108
    Being a gamer from a young age, its hard to explain to people why I never picked up physical sports. Whenever people ask me what team sports I play, I would always rattle off my favourite multiplayer games of the moment, only to be met by blank stares or looks of disapproval. Only then do I start listing down the ...

    It’s FRIDAY! And like I always do about this time, I’m thinking that I desperately need to write a super-catchy and amazing pop song called FRIDAY in order to replace poor doomed  Rebecca Black’s version … if only in my own poor brain, which by this point is as tired of hearing the Ark ...

  • Finland ferry time


    Niklas' blog — Authority Authority: 112
    I hate going on the so-called Finland ferry. It’s a Swedish classic , as Jens Lekman would put it. Mostly used by teenagers who are on the brink of being legally allowed to drink alcohol in public places and 70-90-years-olds, the Finland ferries are also visited by drunks, children who don’t know any better than ...
