My new camera

Filed under: Photography — Jim Murphy @ 10:11 am

I forgot to post about my new camera, I recently picked up a Nikon D50 and have been playing around with that a bit. I took it on a trip to the zoo to play around with the different modes. I also picked up an Infrared filter and used that at the zoo too.

Black Light Tattoos

Filed under: General — Jim Murphy @ 10:01 am

Found this yesterday. It’s kind of nice, in normal light you can’t see it but look under a black light and it glows. I guess it would work if you only want a tattoo when you goto a club. Or to accent a normal tattoo. He’s got some nice examples on the site, check it out.

Realistic Scupture

Filed under: General — Jim Murphy @ 11:06 pm

I found this today. I thought it was really amazing. I’ve always liked that kind of realistic art style. For example I love Alex Ross and even artists like Dali I love, sure he’s a bit surreal but he has this realistic quality to his work. Thats not to say its the only style I like, just one of my favorites.
