Since I don’t blog all that much on this site, I’ve started putting all my daily internet findings into my ‘Tumblog’ which is accessible at tumblr.mattwitmer.com or the Tumblr button at the top of this page.

As cold and rainy as it was yesterday, I still went out and shot my sister’s field hockey game versus their rivals, Downingtown West. East ended up losing but was a pretty exciting game.

My new awesome piece of art, Bill the Yeti, outside exploring. Bill was designed by the extremely talented David Lanham.

It was a gorgeous day today and the clouds definitely reflected that.

It rained today.

The above photo is of a miniature figurine of Duff Goldman, the proprietor of Charm City Cakes and star of the Food Network’s Ace of Cakes.

In honor of Watchmen’s release on DVD and Blu-Ray, I present this okay HDR of it’s case.

I took this photo of the family mini-van with my Nikkor 50mm f/1.8, looking down the side of the car from one of the headlights.

Colors have been enhanced a little bit with Nik Software’s Color Efex Pro.

My mom also wanted some abstract/industrial photos of our laundry room to hang up on some barren walls.

The above photo was taken from the inside edge of our washing machine. The black and white conversion was done using Nik Software’s Silver Efex Pro.

[EDIT] Added a cross-processed color version of the photo to flickr.

My parents run an embroidery business out of our house and they have two 12-needle Brother embroidery machines. My mom is a big fan of black and white photography and has always wanted some close-up photos of various parts of the machines. With Mpix running a special this weekend on 8×10 prints, I figured now was the perfect time to do it for her.

The above photo is of the tension knobs for each individual needle on one of their machines. I ran the photo through Sharpener Pro, to sharpen up the edges, and Silver Efex Pro, to get the black and white (I used the Push Process +1 preset).
