Hello there. I am Terry and I am a full-time undergraduate based in Singapore. I take photos, write a blog and design websites.
And no, I'm not a teddy bear.
Falling in love with HDR. Each are merged from 7 photos taken 2/3 EV apart :) tell me which one you love more – Teddy Bear or Evening. Each HDR is clickable by itself, a larger resolution (800 x 600) opens up in the lightbox.
Have a great week everyone! Hope this two HDR washes away your Monday blues :razz:
I'm relatively new to the design world - only to start learning HTML in secondary school and then moving on to (X)HTML and CSS in college. Since then I have been hand-coding my designs using notepad, alongside with the amazing help from Firebug. I embrace photography as a personal persuit during my free time, and I prefer spending the rest of it doing meaningless quizzes on Facebook and destroying the world (in Rampage World Tour, that is).
If you've enjoyed the post, or think that it might be useful to others, do share in on a social network site that you're using. Thank you!
Yea. You probably know what the Konami code is before getting to this page. So now what? Here is a randomised YouTube video on my favourites list... which includes Rickroll, if you're luck enough to get it.
You are currently watching Paul Dateh - Top 40 Violin Mashup. Loving it? You can even watch the video in its full screen glory :)
The Konami Code:
aww…the teddy bear is so cute! hahaz.. Does that belongs to you? =)
I love the evening shot though the little pillows are too cute. One of my best friend has had one of those since she was an infant. It has been used so much that the foam in the casing has become really thin but she still travels with it :)
Hi teddy
I esp love the evening shot.. :)
Love these! Especially how you’ve done the evening shot– the odd house out. :) Keep it up!
You really are getting better at photos and editing. :)
[...] Dancing Colours- teddY gives us some edited photos to wash your delayed Monday Blues away! [...]
very pretty indeed! i love evening better. how do you merge the photos? using photoshop? or does your camera do it for you? sorry if the questions are stupid, i don’t much about photography.
denise: Yeap, it’s mine! In fact I won it in a funfair about 3 to 4 years back, obviously lady luck was on my side, because that game was nearly impossible to win! :)
thecoffeesnob: That’s one vote for Evening. Well I don’t really hug my teddy bear a lot, it just sits there looking at me sleeping every night. But I guess repeated washing and itchy hands (that picks strings of foam out of the bear) will make it look smaller over time. I had done this to one of my stuffed toys before, and my aunt was good enough to refill it again.
Ophelia: That’s two votes of Evening! Thanks for commenting!
Grace: Thank you for the compliments! Well it’s not actually me getting better with photography but rather, I’m more used to photoshopping, LOL :razz: judging from your comment, that’s another vote for Evening! Oh and the odd house isn’t an intended effect… the neighbour just decided to paint it orange on New Year’s Day. We initially thought it looks weird, but hey in the end it looks pretty cool in the photo eh? :) And thanks for the link from your blog! I really appreciate that.
Ivy: Three votes for Evening! Your question isn’t stupid at all, don’t worry :) I’ll be glad to be of any help to you. I merged the HDR from 7 differently exposed images (from dark to bright, or vice versa), and used a programme called Photomatix to do all the hard work. And pooof the final HDR will appear, after a little tweaking with some sliders. It’s actually not a hard job, it’s taking the photos that is challenging, since all 7 images have to be overlapping each other, so you’ll need a tripod, or a pair of incredibly steady hands (and feet, maybe!) :razz: hah! Maybe I shall post a tutorial about it.
Voting Result:
Great pictures. Man… One of these days I’M going to have to figure out how to take a decent shot!
Thanks a lot, Teddy for the explanation! Really appreciate it!
ooo it’s so hard to choose!
You’re really talented for your age :) I foresee you as a great photographer/designer in future
Mark my words :)
