Gallery

Posted on 6 January 2010 by Geoff

This gallery contains 3 photos.

I walked to work this morning in the hopes of getting a few nice pictures of Cardiff in the snow. I wish I had the day off to walk around snapping more, but this may be all I get.

Fantasy GUIs

Gallery

Posted on 2 December 2009 by Geoff

This gallery contains 3 photos.

Mark Coleran’s portfolio of mock interface designs from movies has some lovely concepts. I wish more Linux distros looked like this out of the box. This is the kind of OS I want to drive!

More on the GoogOS GUI

Gallery

Posted on 5 June 2009 by Geoff

This gallery contains 3 photos.

I did a bit more work this week, but not as much as I would like. The PSD is in a bit of a state at the moment, so I’ve cut out some details to show off, including some application … Continue reading →

I realise I haven’t been posting many pictures lately, but hopefully I will post some of the backlog this week. In the meantime, here are a few from today, taken while Geocaching in the greater Newport area.

Last photos of 2008

Gallery

Posted on 1 January 2009 by Geoff

This gallery contains 2 photos.

Taken from the tops of two different ‘mountains’ near Caerphilly, these are the last pictures taken by me in 2008 (and my first post for 2009). I’d have taken a picture of the first sunrise too, but I actually completely … Continue reading →

Today’s fun cemetery pics

Gallery

Posted on 6 December 2008 by Geoff

This gallery contains 4 photos.

None of these came out as well as I had hoped. I thought the wonky headstones would look great as a black and white. Then I overcompensated and over-saturated the others! The last one is an attempt at a lomo … Continue reading →

Darth, I am your father

Gallery

Posted on 30 November 2008 by Geoff

This gallery contains 4 photos.

This seasonal piece of stencil graffiti is just up the road from me. It has actually been there for over a year now, and I’ve been meaning to photograph it that whole time! UPDATE 2011.09.19: Sadly, the Darth piece has … Continue reading →

More long exposure abstracts

Gallery

Posted on 16 November 2008 by Geoff

This gallery contains 3 photos.

A few more long exposure abstracts – probably the last I'll bother doing – but I do like the effect. I want to grab a tripod and try and get some good quality night photography, so look for that later. … Continue reading →

Some night photography / long exposure abstracts

Gallery

Posted on 16 November 2008 by Geoff

This gallery contains 6 photos.

I stumbled across my camera’s long-exposure mode a few days ago – here are some of the better results. Llandaff Cathedral features again, by virtue of being on my walk home. Luckily enough, there seemed to be some evening choir … Continue reading →
