This couldn’t have come at a better time; if you’re looking for another cheap and easy way to shoots you some awesome Fisheye, why not look to your Christmas tree?
One shiny bulb, three simple steps, bing bada boom – you’ve got a great 360 degree (-ish) fisheye look… head on over to check this one out, folks. Then try it out, and let us know how it goes!
You gotta love a guy who makes his own holiday cards year after year. Thomas Hoehn, over at Kodak’s A Thousand Words blog, does exactly that – and it never ceases to inspire us just how awesome his cards get. (Last year he made stained glass look-a-likes as cards!)
This year’s card is all about pull-tabs and other interactive fun, with some of Thomas’s awesome photos from the past year to boot. Pulling a tab on the finished card reveals a great hidden message – well, instead of us telling you about it, head on over and watch the video to see for yourself!
It’s like a whole bucket of festive yuletide, delivered right to your mailbox. Woo hoo! (Thomas, if you want our address to mail one of these…)
Flick A Day is here to help keep you on task. The Boston-based service allows users to choose from taking photos with a web cam, or uploading images from their computer. You will get an email reminder by noon if you’ve not taken your daily picture AND they compile all your photos into a nifty widget you can use on other sites.
Now he can can easily added location information to this EXIF data and place his images in the Flickr Map. Would come in pretty handy during today’s 24 Hours of Flickr!
You could also add those photos to the Photojojo group map. Check it out, you’ll find some amazing photos to explore.
According to Chris, the adaptor seems to work for any Nikon that would work with the MC-35 adaptor. Now anyone have something for a Canon?
Thomas Hoehn over at Kodak’s A Thousand Words has a post featuring his “Extreme Holiday Photo Card Ideas.” For the past five years, Thomas has created unique cards to share his family photos and holiday cheer with others. Check out his stained glass look-a-like or the photo paper airplane!
You may remember Duesseldorf-based photographer extraordinaire Mareen Fischinger from her popular Photojojo tutorial on how to make a panography. Well, she’s in NYC for a few months, and last weekend she and photo whiz Sahadeva shot a couple new DIY videos on our rooftop.
Stay tuned for their awesome collaboration, coming up soon!
I wrote about these say-it magnets, but still haven’t found a place to buy them. Here’s a link to a simple tutuorial I did to go the DIY route and make ‘em yourself.
“The Gary Fong Lightsphere is a flash diffuser that is gaining popularity with wedding and portrait photograhers world wide. His product is selling at a pace that the manufacturer can’t keep up with. This Flickr photoset demonstrates the use of a to-go container to make your own.” [via MAKE]
Use the video feature on your digital camera to capture some fun videos. Check out the video these guys made racing through Manhattan on bikes. Awesome.
Yes, the screen is small (3″), but it’s a digital photo frame, and it’s darned cheap.
Mark Wilson’s $40 DIY Digital Photo Frame uses the Juicebox digital media player, available on eBay for anywhere from $10-$30. You can also buy it new for $20-$50, depending on where you get it.
A fun and cheap weekend project! And a great alternative to the nicer, but more expensive digital photo frame project we just covered in the newsletter!
