Sophisticated Design & Platform Agnosticity

Friday, June 25th, 2010

I’m a big believer in creating sophisticated web solutions rather than making a one-sized-fits-all design. OK I’m not a graphic designer, but I like to think that with a little love and a tweak here and there it can all come together… so I’ve been tweaking again.

One thing that you may not know is that this website looks entirely different in IE6.

Ansel Adams: The Camera

As the first of three parts of Ansel Adams Photography Series, Ansel Adams: The Camera begins by discussing the idea of visualisation in relation to photography. Ansel Adams is a master of his craft; this series has sat on my backburner for some time. Book 2 in this series is The Negative and it's followed up by The Print. In them Ansel outlines his philosophy of photography rather than trying to lay down a set of rules. This first instalment is a technical book that explains the good old fashion film camera.
