mp3 with QTVR test




Since I have a computer for imaging I decided to try my hand at making some music to accompany my images. I have no idea what im doing, and im sure i am lousy DJ but for my first track with little equipment it turned out O.K. I selected about 30 beats and press buttons when I want to play one. Now I have to hunt down some more audio software as I made this mp3 by recording live, As it is I don't know what to buy yet I have no option but to lay day down tracks and record so I am pushing all the buttons and recording back in through the souncard, not the easiest way. If I make a mistake I have to start all over again :P Kinda fun mixing live though. I record a 33mb wav and shrink to mp3 with a free application I found on cnet.com. Click photo for QTVR with mp3. Photo extreme close up from movie.

Another Hand held Dylosphere test


Just testing a pan on an area without to many control points. Nat Bailey received another years grace from demolition, phew. The parking lot is about to be ripped up to make a new Swimming pool. I hope with the sky train stop coming that Queen Elizabeth park wont get made into another strip mall. Click photo for QTVR.

The Dylosphere


Make hand held panoramas a breeze with my newly invented Dylosphere. Made for Nikon 10.5 ( Or the 8mm Peleng or Sigma) but can be modified for any set up. Simply[ download ] psd, print and use. Place on floor, if very windy stick a foot on it. Its best to hold the camera comfortably at your waist, placing your head over and above lens, camera in the vertical position. At this distance you can align the gold bar of the lens ( rough nodal point on nikon 10.5) over the centre line of template. In the semi circle cutout the curve of your lens hood will align with hole in the template. Simply rotate to point 1 and shoot. Repeat for all six points, then shoot up and down, or just photoshop . Click on photo for QTVR test. Stitched auto on ptgui, 5 mins photoshop as this was test work and done fast. Blended default ptgui.
