Doing a day of photoshoots brings me some wonderful teenage memories helping my Father with all kinds of photoshoots during summer breaks. Staging these fantasies require live creativity. It is a fun process much faster than sw creation. Digitalisation has simplified the creation in a dramatic way. The instant gratification, seeing the light, the field depth takes much of the guess work of photography away. Back then Polaroids were the only insurance. But in the end a good shot is as good as the photographer. The resolution that these shots were taken at was 16M pixels, so there is room for lots of cropping and zooming. The pictures I shared were all taken with the Nokia 6680, which has 1.3M, which is plenty, actually too much for mobile web sharing. I shrink them down to VGA before sharing.

I has wondered how those photos that come up whilst the program is loading were taken... Seemed far too high a quality to be mobile phone pics.

Does this mean that a new version of Lifeblog is on its way then???

The pictures in my blog are typically taking with a cameraphone. At the moment I am using the Nokia 6680 with 1.3M pixels.

Unfortunately I cannot comment on new versions.

Your version of life agree with this sentiment ...

Great site seeing, indeed

As a person working in the world of radio and magazines I am surprised that Lifeblog is not catering for the more creative types (who typically use Macs).

It seems incredibly short-sighted. It won't take too long before someone else steals this concept and applies to Macs for another phone type (or iPods themselves? - camera iPod?)
