But fear not, as I am sure you were terrified, as it is being resurrected!!! I am making a few changes, a major one will be announced early 2010, but the most important one for [...]]]> http://darksideofthelens.com/2009/12/grab-the-buzzy-thing-clear/feed/ 4 http://darksideofthelens.com/2009/01/out-and-about-for-a-few-weeks/ http://darksideofthelens.com/2009/01/out-and-about-for-a-few-weeks/#comments Mon, 19 Jan 2009 03:38:10 +0000 Natator http://darksideofthelens.com/?p=512 Well, it’s that time of year and I am going off for a break, returning mid February. During this time I’ll not be updating the blog as I will only have sporadic access to the web. Unfortunately comments, questions, requests etc may take a little while for me to get to, but I will get to them [...]]]> http://darksideofthelens.com/2009/01/out-and-about-for-a-few-weeks/feed/ 6 http://darksideofthelens.com/2009/01/notification-of-new-tutorials/ http://darksideofthelens.com/2009/01/notification-of-new-tutorials/#comments Sat, 17 Jan 2009 13:08:54 +0000 Natator http://darksideofthelens.com/?p=527 I have had several people ask me how best to be notified when I put up a new video, as I don’t email everyone to let them know (though I can do so if enough people request it).

Canvas is a very forgiving medium, with the ability to hide a wealth of sins in many photos, though it is still the usual case of the better the photo the better the end result. However, due to the nature, especially the texture, [...]]]> http://darksideofthelens.com/2009/01/your-prints-on-canvas/feed/ 2 http://darksideofthelens.com/2008/11/tutorial-images-now-available/ http://darksideofthelens.com/2008/11/tutorial-images-now-available/#comments Mon, 17 Nov 2008 03:00:07 +0000 Natator http://darksideofthelens.com/?p=475 The tutorial images for the earlier tutorials are now available in the free member’s area. I apologise that these took me a while to get up but things here have been somewhat out of control, to put it mildly.

But I do have a rather valid excuse Our baby, Robert, decided to arrive somewhat earlier than we expected, over 4 weeks early in fact.

However, the way I had the blog setup meant that they all came directly to me, when the questions will usually benefit others as well. I have therefore slightly changed my feedback and questions system to more of a guestbook [...]]]> http://darksideofthelens.com/2008/10/slight-change-to-the-feedback-system/feed/ 0 http://darksideofthelens.com/2008/10/tutorials-available-as-podcasts-on-itunes/ http://darksideofthelens.com/2008/10/tutorials-available-as-podcasts-on-itunes/#comments Thu, 09 Oct 2008 00:57:46 +0000 Natator http://darksideofthelens.com/?p=436 For those with iPhones (boy do I love mine!), iPod Touch’s or other similar devices that can view video podcasts, you can now download my video tutorials from iTunes (for free naturally).

Often I go hunting for photos to get ideas, or for images for the blog or other web sites I assist with (within copywrite limitations I hasten to add). Until recently I used Google image search.
