Lion Dog
I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking: "What? What the? What the hell is this? I didn’t come here to see this? What is it? What’s going on? What’s this doing here? What is it? What is…? No, wait, what? I don’t get it. What is this? What’s it here for? I came here looking for funny stuff. Or naughty images of celebrities. I know they’re here. And jokes. Yeah, there are jokes, aren’t there? This, though? What? Why? What is it?" I’d probably think the same thing. Let me explain: It’s a picture. Man, I wish there was a test you had to pass before you could use the...
High Tech History
Churchill, Roosevelt, & Stalin at the Yalta Summit. This image was entered into a recent competition on Gizmodo which I didn’t win and so won’t link to. It is a losing entry. The image is an image not worthy of the status of "winner." The picture is a failure as competition entries go. If you had a Venn diagram with a circle representing all pictures that had won photoshop competitions then this picture would be in another circle next to but not intersecting that first circle. Although the world is in the throes of economic gloom and doom it’s possible that a shop might open in your neighbourhood that sold prints of pictures that people deemed to be winners but you certainly wouldn’t find this picture there. In an alternate dimension where winning images are revered as gods this image would be one of the images that cleans up the temple after everyone has gone home for the night. If you had three winning pictures in your left hand and five winning pictures in your right hand and you took one winning picture from each hand and gave them to a little boy who had no pictures, winning or otherwise, then neither of you would still have this picture. A train full of winning pictures leaves London at midnight heading north at thirty miles per hour; this picture waves that train goodbye from the platform and shuffles off into the night before shooting itself with a...
Acid Princess
I know this isn’t a photoblog and I know that I don’t normally blow my own trumpet (not in public, anyway (and rarely in private since I felt that sharp twinge along my spine)) but I’m pretty damn proud of this photo I took and the subsequent Photoshopping treatment I gave it, and so, reluctantly yet egotistically peacocky, I’ve decided to force upon you – the world – my "art". Those of you who subscribe to my Flickr account (hi you two!) may have already ignored this picture so this gives me a better chance to feel ever so slightly more appreciated (or, at least, slightly less not appreciated) during this yule period. Of yule. The picture is of the aft deck of the Diamond Princess with a number of post processing tweaks thrown in – Urban Acid colour wash, color dodging, linear burning, vignetting, and borderisification. If you know a better word that means "I added a black border" then feel free to tell me. Look how I almost on purposely made use of the rule of thirds for the composition! Click the image for hugenormous goodness. Also, to raise the number of views it has had on Flickr. But mostly for the goodness. But really for the...
Nha Trang, Vietnam
What can I say? I like what I did with this picture so I’m publishing it on my own site. It’s the sort of thing I’d do. Nha Trang, Vietnam A photoshopped photo from my recent trip to the Far East.
Ola Jordan’s Nude Pictures
A lot of people (well, enough to make this almost worthwhile anyway) find this site while looking for nude pictures of Ola Jordan, the small but perfectly-formed dancer on Strictly Come Dancing, and this is because of an article about the dancing series that I wrote back in 2007 here. That particular article not only talks about Ola but it even includes a video performance in the comments. What it doesn’t have, however, are any photos – naked or otherwise – of the dancer. But that’s not to say that I don’t possess any. Now, Ola Jordan’s nude photos aren’t widely disseminated across the web and that’s mainly because her husband, James, has a fiery temper and connections with the Clapham underworld. However, it’s also because – up till now – I’ve not wanted to publish those pictures of her that I own because of the price that was paid in obtaining said images in the first place. Many Bothans died to get me these pictures. But, since I’ve had a falling out with the Bothans over a delivery of catsuits – yeah, that’s right; screw you, you lousy, lazy, workshy, unreliable Bothan scum! – and I like to please as many people as possible, here are the various pictures of Ola Jordan in my possession. There is probably some concern over whether any pictures of Ola are artistic or just downright dirty. Well, I think it’s clear to see that in this particular case you just can’t get any more artistically naked than those. Or can you? Ola has said that there’s nothing better than getting her hands around a lovely nude work of art and Titian – whose name sounds a bit like a woman’s mammaries if you’re as juvenile-minded as I am – has produced some of the greatest examples of nudity in the art world to date. Framed and clasped tightly to her chest, the piece above is one of Ola’s favourite pictures from the old master. Now, when I talk about "the old master" I’m not making any reference to Ola’s husband James at all; what goes on in the Jordans’ bedroom is their business and I’m not privy to any pictures from that specific area of their house at all. However, Nude In A Black Armchair – a work of art by Picasso – is something that they keep a print of in their main reception area and here’s both Ola and James showing how much they like to gaze at this particular reclining...
