Internet Explorer Woes
I just discovered that my home page doesn’t render properly in Internet Explorer 6. I don’t use Internet Explorer at all and the only Windows system I use regularly runs IE7, so I hadn’t noticed. So I guess it’s time …

Animoto
Today I discovered Animoto, an online service that produces something rather special – slideshows from your photographs that aren’t boring. It couldn’t be easier to use. You upload some images, select (or upload) some music and away it goes, analysing …
Chrissie Red
Apposites Attract - Camera: <a href="http://mcaleavy.org/techniques/cameras/nikon-d100/">Nikon D100</a>
I went on a trip up to Perth last weekend to work with the fabulously talented Chrissie Red. She hardly got cramp at all, despite me posing her in in some particularly awkward locations, and she was somewhat disappointed that …
Lottie
Catching up with some backlog stuff. These images are from a recent shoot with Lottie, and helped me to finally get to the bottom of my infrared colour problem: why some images have a blue cast, and some a purple …

Last Saturday I attended a workshop run by Scott Church at The Roost in London. I met a lot of great people and shot some interesting images (shown below).
Aideen
Another shoot with the infrared Nikon D100, and the strongest case yet of the blue hair effect. The camera is fitted with an internal infrared filter that isn’t 100% opaque to visible light, so although it’s now primarily a monochrome …
Space Navigator
Space Navigator
I added a new gadget to my desktop last week – a Space Navigator. For those with an interest in obscure old gaming controllers, it’s a bit like a desk-mounted SpaceOrb – a little puck that you can push and …
