Well, I’ve finally gotten around to setting up a real blog portion of my site. This article was already there, and titled “Hello world!” when the system fired up and I nearly deleted it, but then I realized that I have to have a first post, and this seems as good as any. Fitting, really, since I’m a programmer and every introduction to every programming language ever invented starts of with an example which reads to the computer something like this:
Hi computer, as soon as you have time please print out the words “Hello world!” and then stop. By doing so you will convince me that I have the power to control you.
Thanks,
Programmer
Anyway, this is my first post. There are many like it, but this one is mine. If everything goes according to plan I’ll be posting some stuff soon about HDR processing, more specifically the automation of HDR processing. After getting a new camera (Olympus SP 550-UZ (Ultra Zoom)) which does 5 shot auto bracketing I’ve taken about as many HDR shots on three test runs as I had taken in the previous 8 months that I’d been playing with HDR. I’ve discovered that file management is a real pain and just getting everything processed initially to see which ones will be good shots can be very time consuming. I’m working on a few shell scripts to automate the process (BASH shell to be exact, yes I’m a Linux geek).
