Good post on Jacob Cass’s blog about the difference between possessing artistic and technical skills and just owning the software tools. I know for myself that the abilities I have to use Adobe CS3, for instance, are limited and I’m proud of the things I can do. Recently I downloaded Blender 3D which is open source software for creating 3D worlds and I played around with it long enough to realize that it would take a while for me to create a nice 3D scene, say nothing of a movie. So … respect the tools, but even more, respect the skills!

Recently while browsing Jacob Cass’s blog I found a cool post on another blog … with some really nice long exposure photos!

Long exposure is where you leave the shutter open for a long time, sometimes just a few seconds but that’s ultimately a long time for a photo.

Here are a couple teasers:
