Picture of my desk and i made the hue blue

How did you change the hue to blue, and also kept some white?

I am going to guess he used Photoshop, but I'm also interested in which way you achieved to leave the white parts of the iPod intact.

Did you selected what you wanted to keep intact?

Underexposure FYI: It is often best to underexpose than to overexpose. Once you blow the highlights by overexposing, you can not recover them. One stop underexposure is right where I like my images from the camera to be.

Well, I have read quite the opposite. In a book I bought about Photoshop CS3, they talk about "Exposing Right", which basically states that it is better to over-expose a little bit (obviously not too much, since what you say about blowing the highlights is bad).

One quick tip they give you is to check the Highlights viewer in your camera, and when the first highlights start to appear, then stop there.

Of course, one should always target to expose correctly always.:)

I did it at school in Photoshop CS3 during a study hall. I don't have CS3 but my friend was helping me so i don't really know the names of the things you need to do it. He highlighted them to ignore the hue change or something.

Wherever I hang my hat...
Doylem...the last two pictures were really really cool. That really is weird lighting! and your pictures take advantage of it perfectly!

Thanks for that. 'Strange' light may not last long... but at least it actually happens (ie it isn't just the product of some Photoshop plug-in).

Good = a whole new dimension to even the most familiar places. Bad = I get wet a lot. :)

Having fun for a theme photo group. My resolution, not to "burn" my money. :)

Had a interesting time trying to get the bill lit and then photograph it. Used a candle but the mix I had dipped the dollar in would sometimes extinguish the flame before the mix could light.

Exposure at 1/20 sec to get more flames than just if I'd had a normal fast shutter for flash.
Focal Length: 28 mm
ISO Speed: 400
