Town Line
I’ve been wanting to take this photo for a long time, and today the foggy background made the shot. I like the photo, not sure I’m happy with my vignette. Not good at the Photoshop.

Twittering myself and others since 2008
ByDerek
Ok, I figured since my job really requires that I stay up on all this new web technology stuff, I’d jump into the whole Twitter “microblogging” thing. Probably a good thing for me since I don’t blog as much as I would like to. It’s much quicker to write something that’s 140 characters or less….
Barenaked wing eating

By the way… the Barenaked Ladies/Guster concert was excellent, as expected. It’s not replacing any of my top five, but it was good nonetheless. Big props to Tyler’s Rick Jeanneret-influenced version of Feliz Navidad. Yes, you did have to be there. You didn’t need to have been there to get Steven Page’s recap on the…
Central Terminal approach repaved!
ByDerek
This is already “old” news, but I thought I’d mention it anyways… the Paderewski Drive approach to the Central Terminal (that’s the part between the circle and where the parking lot officially begins) has been repaved! Photo by Nathan Vester If you’ve been to the Terminal before, you’ll really appreciate the fact that driving up…
Modifying a SharePoint 2010 workflow email

The out-of-the-box SharePoint 2010 workflow approver email notification no longer contains a link to the workflow task associated with the workflow item. While that’s ok if the approver is using Microsoft Office 2010 and the document is an Office document, if either of those are not the case then there is no easy way for…
Lights out

Once again, the government’s attempts to fix “problems” they are incapable of fixing will screw us, the consumer. The latest energy bill has a provision to ban incandescent light bulbs. From the Chicago Tribune… “In this bill, we ban by 2012 the famously inefficient 100-watt incandescent bulb,” said Rep. Jane Harman (D-Venice), who co-sponsored that…
for something like this, to replicate the feel I think you want, you probably want to feather edges of your faux-vignette a little more and add a layer or two of grain to give it more of a realistic, film-y feel. Very cool shot, though.
it’s a very nice shot, i like it a lot, but the corner darking could be less dark. i’m sure your camera didn’t do it THAT dark (and if it did, maybe something is wrong haha).
Yeah, the vignette is completely Photoshopped and I couldn’t get it to come out quite the way I wanted it to. I also went back to the RAW shot and tweaked it a little bit to make it a bit more dynamic. Going to take it back into PS and work it a bit more.
