Scaffolding shot

(Posted 3 years, 8 months ago)

A shot of scaffolding against Sidney Sussex College buildings taken earlier today. Played around with it a bit in Photoshop, bumped up the contrast and muted the greens of the tree and the mesh at the top of the pic, in order to emphasise the silvery metalwork.

The original shot was taken at a slight angle, which I’ve corrected in PS, but it still looks slightly off and I can’t work out if that’s my imagination or not.

ecto update

(Posted 3 years, 8 months ago)

I’ve been using ecto for a week or so now so I’ll try and summarize my experience with it so far.

I’m very pleased with it, overall. It works well. A new version has been released (2.3.1) which I’m going to try. As with a lot of apps, half the stuff that it can do I haven’t got my head round yet. I still don’t really ‘get’ tags—technorati or whatever—so I’m going to have to sit down and really concentrate on reading up about them at some point.

Serenity trailer

I’m feeling more excited than I really should about the release of the Serenity movie in September.

Bricks theme

Looking through the selections of available themes on the WordPress site I was really attracted by the Bricks, so I’m trying it out for a while.
