The Return of Honk!

Honkfest October 5-7, 2007

Okay, so maybe I could edit. I still have a hundred or so that haven't been processed. Unfortunately, flickr has a 200 image limit unless I pay for a "pro" site, which I'm not really interested in doing. Maybe I'll put the rest on my website and provide a link.

If anyone is interested in the specs, you'll notice the shots I posted are in a "square" format, due to the lens/ software combination I used.

Almost every shot I took with a Cannon 20D, and a Sigma 8mm fisheye lens. Thus the wacky distortion! I love that distortion in this context. I believe the lens gives just shy of 180 degree field of view. I shoot entirely in the .raw format; process for color/exposure in Lightroom, then output the files to Photoshop. From there they run through a piece of unwrapping software called "Fisheye-Hemi" (it's a plug-in -- not actually part of Photoshop). Once the images are unwrapped (from round back to a semi-square shape), I go back into Lightroom and batch crop them.

Sure, it's a little time consuming, but I like the images I get with this technique.

Drew, where can we find your images on Flickr?

Flickr is the provider for HONK's website, so my images are at somewhere amongst the 2600. However, if you don't feel like sorting through that many pages of photos, here's a direct link to my shots: http://www.flickr.com/photos/departurestudio/
