A few shots from our new Canon EOS DSLR

February 6, 2010 by captainrendall

Here are a few shots from our new Canon EOS 300D.
Obviously, I’m no pro, and I wasn’t using any specific camera setup other than the default settings, as I don’t really have a clue what any of it means yet. All I know at the moment is just point and shoot. The lens used was a Canon EF 28-90mm lens

If only I’d cleaned the mirror beforehand!

My iPhone thoughts

April 16, 2009 by captainrendall

In this post, I’ll argue that the iPhone isn’t a device for everyone. I’m not going to claim that the iPhone is better than anything else on the market with no exceptions, as that would be incorrect. It certainly isn’t the ‘ultimate gadget’ as is often claimed in the media. I’ll also argue that Apple are a downright stupid company most of the time.

An iPhone.

Custom header

February 26, 2009 by captainrendall

As you can see, I have made a lovely new custom header for my blog. For the background, I used a picture of what appears to be a derelict steel-works, ‘cos I like that sort of imagery.

The font is a typeface called Base 02, to which I added a 1pt black outline, a black drop shadow, and a little perspective effect.

The other images are of an album cover that I like because of the artist’s wacky stance, and a photograph of me in a box. On the album cover, I Photoshopped out the name of the artist (Leo Parker) and put in my name, being careful to replicate the original colour, font, angle and lighting. On both images I added a masked gradient to blend the edges.
