			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last time I showed my slim version by using Photoshop Liquify Tool:</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/dsc_2289.jpg"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/dsc_2289-300x199.jpg" alt="dsc_2289" title="dsc_2289" width="300" height="199" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-307" /></a></p>
<p>Liquified Version:<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/dsc_2289a.jpg"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/dsc_2289a-300x199.jpg" alt="dsc_2289a" title="dsc_2289a" width="300" height="199" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-308" /></a></p>
<p>This time I will show which functions I used in Liquify windows.</p>
<p>These are four basic commands you should learn how to use it.  Once you master it, you will be able to do what I have done.<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-15.png"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-15.png" alt="picture-15" title="picture-15" width="28" height="25" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-314" /></a> Forward Warp Tool (Short cut Key &#8220;W&#8221;)</p>
<p>You can use this tool to drag the image to the shape you want.  For example, I pulled this lady&#8217;s face, and you can see not much detail losing around her but her face&#8217;s shape is changed</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-19.png"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-19.png" alt="picture-19" title="picture-19" width="214" height="225" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-320" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-20.png"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-20.png" alt="picture-20" title="picture-20" width="231" height="220" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-321" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-16.png"><br />
<img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-16.png" alt="picture-16" title="picture-16" width="28" height="26" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-315" /></a>Reconstruct Tool (R)</p>
<p>Using this tool can reconstruct your image to the original.  In case you make a mistake when transforming the shape you want, you can use this tool to fix it.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-18.png"><br />
<img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-18.png" alt="picture-18" title="picture-18" width="29" height="23" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-317" /></a>Bloat Tool (B)</p>
<p>This will bloat the area like blowing air under the image.  You can use this to make a bigger eye on your target, or to make your portrait bigger.  Sometime it is fun to know that some people use this for breast enlargement on their pictures.  <img src='http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />   For example:</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-19.png"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-19.png" alt="picture-19" title="picture-19" width="214" height="225" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-320" /></a></p>
<p>Bigger Eyes Version!<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-21.png"><br />
<img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-21.png" alt="picture-21" title="picture-21" width="213" height="244" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-326" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-17.png"><br />
<img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-17.png" alt="picture-17" title="picture-17" width="30" height="25" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-316" /></a>Pucker Tool(S)</p>
<p>Opposite to Bloat Tool, this will stretch your target.  I use this and Forward Warp tool to make myself slimmer. <img src='http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />   For example:</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-19.png"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-19.png" alt="picture-19" title="picture-19" width="214" height="225" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-320" /></a></p>
<p>Small Nose Version:<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-22.png"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/picture-22.png" alt="picture-22" title="picture-22" width="192" height="232" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-327" /></a></p>
<p>Of course, the tools are there, but if you want to make it perfect, you will have to give a lot of tries.  Trying to bloat or stretch your target with larger or smaller brushes when needed.  Hope you all have fun with this <img src='http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I always want to try that.. after I learnt this technique in my photography class. </p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/dsc_1072.jpg"><img src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/dsc_1072-300x199.jpg" alt="dsc_1072" title="dsc_1072" width="300" height="199" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-297" /></a></p>
<p>This picture was shoot with two exposures.  First, I set f/13 for the first exposure for about 1/5sec, then I set my aperture as f/9 for final exposure for about 15 sec.  About 1 hour differences for each exposure taken.  Actually I failed it because somehow the picture was little bit out of focus.. probably I accidently moved little bit the camera for the second shoot.  I am gonna try it again tomorrow.  It is one chance a day thing.. you miss it, then you miss it.  </p>
<p>I took it with D700.  To do it, you must do something so that D700 will not end the multiple exposure mode if there is no activities for 30s.  For me, I decided to turn the monitor delay mode for playback to 10min.  So, I had to check every 10 minutes to make sure I was still in multiple exposure mode with the playback monitor on.  it is little bit annoying, but I think you will get excited if you can take a very good shoot for waiting this much time.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-4.jpg"></a>I went to my first photography course yesterday.  White balance was something that I don&#8217;t really understand how it worked before&#8230; but I got some idea now.  I may be wrong, but I am going to demonstrate here:</p>
<p>my D700 can adjust color temperature for 2500K to 10000K.  Today it is a cloudy weather.  I found about 5000k-6000k probably is the right color temperature setting for today.  I will use 5000k for comparison in this experiment.</p>
<p>5000k:<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-143" title="p-4" src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-4-300x199.jpg" alt="p-4" width="300" height="199" style="border:#888 1px solid;background-color:#FFF;padding:5px;" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-4.jpg"></a><br />
I also tried 2500k, 4000k, 8000k, and 10000k (remember the color temperatures here are  the white balance setting for my camera, so don&#8217;t be confused with the real color temperature for this cloudy day) :</p>
<p>2500k:<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-140" title="p-1" src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-1-300x199.jpg" alt="p-1" width="300" height="199" style="border:#888 1px solid;background-color:#FFF;padding:5px;" /></a></p>
<p>4000k:<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-5.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-144" title="p-5" src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-5-300x199.jpg" alt="p-5" width="300" height="199" style="border:#888 1px solid;background-color:#FFF;padding:5px;" /></a></p>
<p>8000k:<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-142" title="p-3" src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-3-300x199.jpg" alt="p-3" width="300" height="199" style="border:#888 1px solid;background-color:#FFF;padding:5px;" /></a></p>
<p>10000k:<br />
<a href="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-141" title="p-2" src="http://blog.sunnycyk.hk/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/p-2-300x199.jpg" alt="p-2" width="300" height="199" style="border:#888 1px solid;background-color:#FFF;padding:5px;" /></a></p>
<p><strong><em>Color temperatures is like this:</em></strong><br />
<em> The lower the color temperature, light spectrums shift to contain more orange or red wavelengths.  In contrast, the higher the color temperature, light spectrums shift to contain more blue wavelengths.  As the color temperature rises, the color distribution becomes cooler.</em></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Result:</strong></span></p>
<p>In this experiment, the correct color temperature is 5000k.  If my camera white balance setting for color temperature is lower than 5000k, my camera will absorb more blue light, and as result my photo will become blueish.   (because the camera thinks that the color temperature is low.)</p>
<p>On the other hand, if my camera white balance setting for color temperature is higher than 5000k, my camera will absorb less blue light, and as result my photo will become reddish.   (because the camera thinks that the color temperature is high.)</p>
<p>Pretty simple concept.  If you want to learn more about white balance, I found the site has much better explanation how white balance setting and color temperature works.  the URL is: <a href="http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/white-balance.htm">http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/white-balance.htm</a></p>
