We’re off to a good start, 2011. A trip to Sundance, a new motorcycle, time with my family, steady work, and a quick getaway to Las Vegas all have made for a pretty crazy two and a half months. I’ve managed to (mostly) keep up with my photo-a-day project (no thanks to Canon and Apple for technology/repair issues) and would love for you to take a look and leave some feedback, dear reader.
Highlight of the day: The Dunsmuir Brewery Works booth at the 30th annual Santa Cruz Clam Chowder Cookoff, and this fine gentleman on the accordion:
2010 was a pretty awesome year for photography. I took more pictures than I ever have before (17,482 exposures) and completed my first project 365 (a photo every day). Here’s a few links and galleries:
It’s taken a few years (this was shot in Fall 2006), but I finally got my non-linear film project from UCSC’s Film 170A (Fundamentals of Digital Media Production) up on YouTube. It had only existed on a DVD until now, using the remote to navigate between clips. Using YouTube’s Annotations feature, I was able to link it all together so it makes (some) sense. Have a look and try to get through the whole story (16 clips).
Thanks to Christopher Hermelin, Roy the Gnome, and KZSC.
Oh, and be sure to click the buttons on the screen at the end of the clip – it’s a lot more than these initial 11 seconds.
Well this is odd. The Huffington Post is using a photo of mine from Flickr under a Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.0 Generic Creative Common licence and there’s absolutely no attribution. While other images have Flickr names, mine gets a note that says “Google: Listen” (Listen being the title of the image). Are they trying to say that they found it via Google Image search, and therefore they don’t need to give attribution? That’s shady.
Hopefully they’ll notice and fix this shortly. And while they’re at it, maybe they can fix the text that says KZSC is “funded by the FCC”. Come on HuffPo, seriously? A radio station funded by the FCC? That doesn’t even make sense!
Here’s a grab of the article and photo on 10/26/10:

Update: I got in touch of the College Editor and she cleared things up. Apparently their new image scraper has some issues they’re working out.
