Tilt-Shift Photos

I’m sure by now most of you have seen those fascinating photos modified by the “tilt-shift” method that makes the subject of the photo look miniature. Someone has created a clever online tool to easily modify your own photos with this method: TiltShiftMaker.com.

I tested it out with this picture I took in 2002 at Wendover Air Field in Wendover, NV. The result is here. Pretty slick.

Final Four Spirit

I received a very special email last night. The totally amazing people at Bic Media have created a wonderful KU-themed song to get all the Jayhawk fans into the Final Four spirit. They sent it out with instructions to “pass it along to all the KU faithful” – so download it, enjoy, and disseminate! Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

Update: KU beats UNC and advances to the National Title game. GO HAWKS!
Update II: KU WINS THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP! ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!

I just wanted to send out Veteran’s Day good wishes and links to Jeff at A Multi-Engine Instructor’s Blog (turned Airline Pilot) and American Solider at Adventures in flying!. You gentlemen, and all others who have served and are serving, have my everlasting gratitude and respect. God Bless You.
