| Sellwood panarama-ama |
I've been spending my time playing with a free photo-stitching program called Autostitch. To use it you take a batch of photos from a single spot, set the output size and dump the picture files in Autostitch, which sorts them out(somehow) skews them just right and blends and stitches them together. I'm still expirimenting like mad, I've been taking panaramas like they're free porn (a lot).
Autostitch lets you have people repeat throughout different parts of a picture. The one above is our livingroom and Felecia getting ready for work while I sit on my ass playng with the camera. Below shows how I really live. Notice the scattered clothes and the old TV. My cat shows off her TV to dresser to closet shelf skills. She's really proud of this talent.
Our buddies Jen and Patrick took us on a favorite bike ride of thiers around town the other day where I took this one of the Willamette from the Sellwood Bridge.
The ride was great, and nearly entirely off streets, so its a good way to play around and talk with friends. We started at OMSI on the East Bank Esplanade and took the Spring Water Corridor south to the Sellwood Bridge and then rode through parks, paths, and condo parking lots, to the end of the steet car line and the South Waterfront developement.
 After reaching the Tom McCall Park we lingered in the sun on the Hawthorne Bridge to catch part of a blues show before continuing north through McComick Pier, which has a really awesome boardwalk, past the police horse stables to NW 17 Ave where we hooked back a few blocks to hit the new NW Lucky Labrador Beerhall. I had a couple summer ales that hit the spot. Is easy to forget the effects of two rich, fresh, 20 oz. microbews, there's no comparison to anything in a bottle. The effect is profound, and usually leaves me exhausted, just like a good bike ride.
After all that its time to go home for some serious Autostitching. |

biking, hiking, running off this sloppy beer gut through industrial deserts of inner Portland and water-gouged, ferned Cascade canyons.
this blog is not meant to be true, useful, spellchecked, relevant; just honest in it's summation, if not in it's details. |
