Hurties Owies

Bad ear aches started this afternoon. Bad thing is, it is in both ears. And getting worse as the night wears on. :(

I think that means it is an inner ear infection. I REALLY don't need this kind of illness right now. Quick trip to the doc tomorrow after work methinks for a course of anitbiotics.

Till then, craploads of painkillers. :(

So tired! So much work to do! Life sucks sometimes...

Hello Melbourne

Had to go to Melbourne today for work. There was a chance I would have to stay down here for more work, and have just found out that will now happen.

So, while I await the company booking accommodation and such like, I have set up shop at Starbucks on the corner of Bourke and Queen streets. Found me table with a nice view, a power point, and a crapload of caffeine. Have my folder of "work to do" with me, and I will now embed in and try to get craploads of work done.

Come visit me? I'll be here for hours. ;)

Work Rest and Play

Have had a busy week. For the long weekend just gone I spent some time visiting Fraser Island with a friend. We camped at Inskip Point up at Rainbow Beach, and then over at Fraser. Saw the lakes and the sand blows and such things.

Lake McKenzie is a gorgeous freshwater lake. It is so damn blue!!! Took heaps of pics up there, far too many to blog. But I will blog this one which I thought was very cute. Snapped a pic of my friend mid sentence. Don't recall exactly what she was saying, but I am sure it was something along the lines of "Stop bloody taking photos of me!". :P

Have been busy at work this week. Spent a few days in Lismore doing some wireless work at the uni down there. Off to Melbourne next week to do some more wireless work at a uni there. So much work to be done, so little time to do it.

Three weeks holiday coming up, week after next. Yay!!!

It's almost 4am. I have work early tomorrow, but I cannot get to sleep. :(

More of Darling Harbour

As requested, here is a composite picture of the individual exposures I merged into a HDR image using Photoshop. These exposures are two f/stops apart. Probably did not need 8 of them, might have done better with 4 of them 3 f/stops apart. Still trying to work these things out. :P



Just for reference, here is a picture I took earlier that day from near the same place looking pretty much the same direction.



Cool huh. :) The final HDR image can be found in my previous blog entry

Darling Harbour HDR

I am down in Sydney for a few days for the CeBit event. We were having dinner at a restraunt down on Darling Harbour, and I was quite impressed with the way the harbour looked with the reflected lights of the city falling apon it.

I snapped a quick series of photos to compile as a HDR image. 8 exposures all together which I merged into a HDR image and converted to a regular image using Photoshop CS3. Does not look too bad for something that was unplanned. :)

Anyhow, have been out on the town all night with the boys. Must go to bed and get some sleep. Have to be up in just over 3 hours to check out of the hotel. :(
