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.

WTF American Idol?
ByDerekI was too disturbed after watching South Park last night to comment on Idol… but WTF? Kelly didn’t end up in the bottom three after completely butchering her song (even by her own admission!) and Chris did? I guess America really does love dumb blondes. I also fail to see the hoopla about Katharine. She…

Whatever the problem
ByDerekLooks like Ethanol isn’t the answer to the global warming problem. Then again, what’s the problem? Canada is concerned about global cooling. I know, I know. Since we can’t quite agree on what the problem is we should be trying to solve, we can just generalize it and call it “global climate change.” Because dammit,…

Democrat victory likely a win for net neutrality, possibly poker
ByDerekEven conservatives like myself can find some solace in the Democrat’s recent rise to power. An article on TheStreet.com discusses the likelihood that the tipping of the political scales will likely mean that net neutrality will be preserved. The House of Representatives passed a version of the bill that was stripped of net neutrality language…

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.
