<h3><a href="http://images.google.com" target="_blank">Google Image Search </a></h3>
<p>I really like googles new filtering tab on the left as this makes it much easier to taylor your search. The colour filter is particularly clever.</p>

<h3><a href="http://flickr.com" target="_blank">Flickr</a></h3>
<p>Flickr is by far one of the best if not the best image sharing website on the web today. Flickr has got millions of photos and the best thing is that some are creative commons share as you like meaning you dont have to have special permission to use them.  The search could be a bit better I think though.</p>
<p><a href="http://flickr.com"><img class="alignnone" title="flickr" src="http://l.yimg.com/g/images/en-us/flickr-yahoo-logo.png.v2" alt="" width="180" height="30" /></a></p>
<h3><a href="http://www.corbisimages.com/default.aspx" target="_blank">Corbis images </a></h3>
<p>This is one that i just found recently. I really love the user interface and the way that it makes it easy for you to view the images. It is a stock photo website just to let you know.</p>

<p>There are loads of other great sites and you can have a look at this post here that has even more links to cool photo search engine sites.</p>

<p>The last thing i want to leave you with is a cool online photo editing website that I found.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.picnik.com/" target="_blank">Picnic</a></h3>
<p>This is a great site that is free and easy to use. You dont neet to even create an account it just works.  You can edit photos and make them look really cool and funky or just touch them up to improve the way they look</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have just finished watching what was one the best documentaries i have ever seen. It was called <a href="http://www.channel4.com/more4/documentaries/doc-feature.jsp?id=229" target="_blank">Thilla in Manila on More4</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Joe Frazier takes British filmmaker, John Dower, back to the most hyped boxing match in history.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>It was amazing to see the truth behind how brutal and racial ALI was against Joe and in my eyes it wasn&#8217;t just a hype before the game but actually something quite evil and sinister. I mean what can draw a man to be so harsh and un just towards another man.</p>
<p>Joe Frazier even helped out Ali when he lost his license and even gave him money.</p>
<p>Maybe the documentary was quite biased but I just cant see how Ali can be hailed such a great sportsman when he was so terrible to one of his components.</p>
<p>An in the final match between them i was hoping Joe would have one but sadly it was called off and Ali won by default.. It was interesting the shortly after that Ali collapsed and who knows but maybe he would have lost as Joe Frasier wanted to carry on. The problem was he couldn&#8217;t see as he had lost his sight in one eye and the other was closing up</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a great video of Joe Frazier</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/FMdGNhSLE6A&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FMdGNhSLE6A&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p>
<p>The final interesting thing is how Ali is now so wealthy through selling posters and endorsements and Joe is living in the back room of his Gym that he owns in Philadelphia. It just shows how the media plays a huge part in the wealth of someone. But ultimately what has it lead to?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well if you are reading this you have manage to catch me whilst I&#8217;m over the English channel on our decent to London Heathrow. I&#8217;m sitting just behind the engines and they have been roaring a sollom song the who journey. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s been a good flight and I have managed to get some sleep I did try and sleep on the floore for a bit but that was interupted quite suddenly as it was not permitted on flights. </p>
<p>I write with a sense of anticipation for this new year as it&#8217;s is only about 5 months until I an finished all it formal education. Before I can get to excited I have to complete a 100000 word dissertation and complete my spots Kenya project. </p>
<p>The plan is to work hard now on the dissertation an get a good chunk done. Whilst working at least 2 days a week on spots Kenya. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s probably going to be a rather hectic few months but God willing I can and I will make it. </p>
<p>I was in church and the pastor was speaking on being expectant an having a expectancy for what the Lord wants to do and has planned for us. It was bassed on Isaiah 30 v 18. It is just really important to have a hope and aim and I am praying that mine would more and more be in the Lord and not in my own strength. </p>
<p>Well we are just flying though some clouds about to land me thinks. We have been prepped that it is minus 3 which is making me cold just think about it. At least it will cool my sun tan. </p>
<p>Ok landing is iminant so I don&#8217;t really want to loose my iPhone as we break. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s been great.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to get this out whilst in the air. Yup there you go.  </p>
<p>Landed now sorry. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well I am sitting here at Jomo Kenyatta airport Nairobi waiting for josh to check in. Sadly they don&#8217;t allow people to go into the check in area so me and dad are sat outside in the cafe. Mum made it in as the man on the gate had mercy on us. </p>
<p>There is a strange sense of sadness the I always feel when at the this part if the airport as it&#8217;s either saying by to someone wheather that&#8217;s me leaving or saying by to fammilly members. I must say that it&#8217;s not always the case as there is often am much joy at the arrivals part. </p>
<p>I am impressed with all the amount of people that are comming and going it&#8217;s quite obvious that many are tourists. This is all really good for the ecconomy and if I was to invest in something it would probably be tourism in Kenya. I am in a way with my spots Kenya website and allmost wish I had sine flyers here to hand out as I am sure many of the people would add their spots of Kenya. </p>
<p>I just got a call from mum saying it&#8217;s chaos in the terminal which is not a good thing. If joshs flight is late then he will not catch hi train back to Millfield and then have to sleep at my friends house in ealing. It would just be a hug inconvenience as he has mock gcse exams starting tommorow. </p>
<p>Well I best go and see how I can help. </p>
<p>You can follow my Twitter and look at the twitpics in the side bar. </p>
<p>Ps this was all done on location using my iPhone with a Kenyan orange sim. It&#8217;s great to be connected when you want to be. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well I am currently about thirty thousand feet above sea level cruising over south Italy. Incase you haven&#8217;t gathered I am flying In a Boeing 777 jet to nairobi Kenya on my way home to see my parrents and me bro josh. </p>
<p>I am sitting here waiting for two things one my food to come which is a bit late as we had some turbulances it was actually rather scary and I must admit a small thought crossed my mind in the vein of what I would do. </p>
<p>Well the food is almost here. The little trolly is parked up in front of me and I am thinking what I would like beef or chicken? What would you choose?</p>
<p>I am going to pause this post here while I eat my  food and watch hancock. Just finished watching wanted and was not to impressed to be honest.  Well that&#8217;s slightly loss worded it was quite impressive but I just didn&#8217;t agree with the spiritual post modern ethic that was woven into the script. I know we are meant to suspend our disbelief with cinema but when your belief contradicts with the moral structure of the narative then one can only think to him self&#8230; Why am I watching this. It&#8217;s just so easy to fill our selves with junk and what ever is pure what ever is lovely&#8230;.. These are the kinds of things that we are meant to fill ourselves with. ( I&#8217;ll referece that when I can get to my bible.) </p>
<p>Hancock was a bit better and had a more possitive meaninig but just didn&#8217;t really think much of the plot. Some satisfying twists and cool effects though. Very arristotelian. </p>
<p>Oh yeah the food was good salmon but the sauce was a bit runny and could have had more flavour. </p>
<p>I have had a great chat to the lady next me called EVA was cool chatting about UNI life and just random things like movies. It&#8217;s always do great to talk to people on a plane as it&#8217;s always a bit awekward when you go throughout a whole flight without even saying hello. We were wondering how easy it would be to fake ones identity and pretend that you are a spy or somethin. I think it would be quite hard to sustain what do others think? </p>
<p>Well it&#8217;s time to try and get some sleep ad Its about 12:33 Uk time and my body is telling me to sleep. </p>
<p>I expect I&#8217;ll be back soon.</p>
<p>Well it was a good flight but am pretty tired now and about to have a nap at home. </p>
<p>Do you enjoy flying?  </p>

<p>Its really trendy in here and the décor is on par with European standards. It is situated in</p>
<p>the Westgate shopping mall and has been going for 8 months now&#8230;. the things that makes it is the flooring and the simple design of the lighting and cream colours&#8230;</p>

<p>The staff are friendly and the service is pretty good but I doo feel that it a bit of an over kill with more than 15 people on the floor at one point.. i think that if they had some serious training and concentrated on fewer then that might raise the standards. I would be happy working here it must be one of the trendiest jobs in the country..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Please view the finals of this page on PHOTONOMY http://trcwest.com/photoblog/</p>
<p>Here we have a series of moon light images of the  Indian ocean..   These were taken on the full moon period and have come out quite   nicely&#8230;</p>
<ol>
<li>Firstly i have cropped the images down so that they framed the horizon   better using the rule of thirds.</li>
<li>Secondly i have used the New Adjustment Layer feature to make layers   that can be changed these include the black and white feature and the   levels and the photo filter effect. They have to be layered in such a   way that allows the photo filter to take effect look at this layers   tab if you want to try..</li>
</ol>
<div class="postie-image-div"><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-1.jpg"><img class="postie-image" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-1.jpg" alt="Picture 2.png" width="144" height="181" /></a></div>
<ul>
<li>Also note that i have used the unsharp mask which ads more details to   digital pictures and allows a more crisper image. The reduce noise was   applied to the top as it was quite grainy due to the High ISO rating..</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> Here are the original images so that you can see where i go them from&#8230; Note here is the Meta DATA</li>
</ul>
<div class="postie-image-div"><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-2.jpg"><img class="postie-image" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-2.jpg" alt="Picture 3.png" width="192" height="230" /></a></div>
<blockquote><p>Pleas also note that you can click on the images and they will pop up   in light-box, a nice full size preview..</p></blockquote>
<div class="postie-image-div"><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-3.jpg"></a></p>
<div class="postie-image-div" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-4.jpg"><img class="postie-image" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-4.jpg" alt="160808_0691.jpg" width="553" height="369" /></a></div>
<div class="postie-image-div">
<ol>
<li>First Edit Of the above with a WARMING filter on the image below.. these images look even better when original and full resolution&#8230; i admit that their is too much noise..</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="postie-image-div">
<div class="postie-image-div" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-5.jpg"><img class="postie-image" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-5.jpg" alt="Indian_Ocean2.jpg" width="553" height="369" /></a></div>
<div class="postie-image-div">2.  Below is a sepia toned one that is more subtle.. which do people prefer</div>
</div>
</div>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="postie-image" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-3.jpg" alt="160808_0682.jpg" width="553" height="369" /></p>
<div class="postie-image-div" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-6.jpg"><img class="postie-image" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-6.jpg" alt="Indian_Ocean3.jpg" width="553" height="369" /></a></div>
<blockquote><p>3.  Here below we have a blue moon lit one that is quite strong also</p></blockquote>
<div class="postie-image-div" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-7.jpg"><img class="postie-image" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-7.jpg" alt="Indian_Ocean4.jpg" width="553" height="369" /></a></div>
<blockquote><p><strong>New Style below like looking through a telescope with strong vignetting </strong></p></blockquote>
<p>I feel that i like the one below the best as it is simple and more   appealing to the eye.. simple black and white effect here..</p>
<p><a href="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/indian_ocean_ver2_2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-196" title="Moon lit Beach" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/indian_ocean_ver2_2.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="289" /></a></p>
<p>This one is to create the effect of the sun setting with a strong   warming filter.</p>
<div class="postie-image-div"><img class="postie-image aligncenter" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-9.jpg" alt="Indian_Ocean_Ver2_3.jpg" width="553" height="320" /></div>
<p>Again another strong blue moonlit filter.</p>
<div class="postie-image-div"><img class="postie-image aligncenter" src="http://trcwest.com/blog/wp-photos/20080907-050504-10.jpg" alt="Indian_Ocean_Ver2_4.jpg" width="553" height="320" /></div>
<p>So all in all that was a few that i have edited up&#8230; they are not the   most conventional  images and not the most safe either, as far as   styles i think that i may have over done it a bit but the psds are   still there and actually look much better than these but i have got   his far so i might as well post this..  Dont get me wrong i do like   these but i just wanted a challenge and this is what i came out with..<br />
So please comment and tell me what you think&#8230; and dont forget to   check out the photo blog&#8230;<br />
oops i almost for got this one&#8230; a first time edit.</p>
