Pic of the Day #803
Here’s another sunset, and again it’s a panoramic image taken from high up a tower in Edmonton’s downtown core. For this one, I decided to see what Lightroom could do for me in terms of bringing out the colour of the image, so I tried a bit of split toning to really bring out the colours in the clouds. I also did a bunch of hue adjustments, to pitch some of the colours in certain directions.
So while I can’t really say that this image is “true to life,” I still think it looks pretty cool.

I started blogging back in 2004 -- in May, if the Wayback Machine is to be believed. Not that I remember the exact day. To be honest, I didn't take it that seriously then; it was a fun distraction, but nothing more.
That all changed, I think, once the Danish cartoons were published, and the assault on the right to freedom of expression became very visible. With the recent issues in Canada concerning the "human rights" commissions, the gravity of the matter has only increased, and my interest in blogging has increased right along with it.
I used to blog at a domain called Time Immortal, but it seemed to be the right time for a change -- there's been a lot of that in my life of late. Hence this blog: a fresh start, and proof positive that I won't shut up even if I get shut down once in a while.
