Jim Atwood Mobile Website

Jim Atwood — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 13:06:28 +0000

I just finished putting together my new Jim Atwood Mobile Website. It took me a while to figure out what approach I was going to take with the theme and mobile plugins. So far I think the site is working out pretty well. http://jimatwood.mobi

The website is using Wordpress 2.8.3 as of this writing and the following plugins.

Access Keys
Google XML Sitemaps
WordPress Mobile Pack
XHTML and Mobile YouTube

I am also looking into the Mobify Wordpress Plugin, but so far I like the Wordpress Mobile Pack the best because it is much easier and free for all my sites without any limitations.

Jim Atwood News Nikon DSLR Site

Jim Atwood — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 12:56:21 +0000

A long time ago I started a website about photography that I did using the Nikon DSLR D200. Since then, the D300 and D700 have been released, but the Nikon D200 still remains a trusty backup camera for me. This week I finally go around to updating the website with a fresh new look and I’ll definitely be adding more videos and photos as well in the coming days.

Digital Art Photography Japan

Jim Atwood — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 13:29:02 +0000

One of the things I enjoy about photography and often get asked to do with clients is to post process photos in Photoshop. This gives a sort of Digital Art Photography look which is quite popular with many forms of media. This slideshow is a collection of images taken in Japan by Jim Atwood Photography at http://www.jimatwood.net.

Ropography Japan on 12Seconds TV

Jim Atwood — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 09:09:36 +0000

On my previous video http://12seconds.tv/channel/jimatwood/209815, I used transitions from frame to frame. Due to the short time frame, this caused the quality of the video to be reduced slightly. On “Ropography japan”, my second video I elected to remove the transitions except for the last frame. I think with photos that have more detail, this retains the quality for the most part. Again the video was rendered Youtube style in HD in 16:9 (Widescreen). On a test run I used 4:3 (TV) and it came out like total crap. The 16:9 looks much better but obviously there could be other settings involved that I am missing. Note that I’m on a PC. Photos by Jim Atwood Photography at http://www.jimatwood.net

Raindrops Japan

Jim Atwood — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 08:36:02 +0000

It had just stopped raining and this provides a good opportunity to catch some water droplets. Usually I use a water bottle and make my own "rain" or "droplets", but these are all natural.

Nikon DSLR Site sports a New Look

Jim Atwood — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 13:38:35 +0000

NikonDSLR.com has a new look. You can check it out at http://www.nikondslr.com. The site uses a custom theme from WooThemes that sports additional custom sections. This is an older theme so the tricky part was refining the backend so that it would load fast. I think it looks fresh and modern now. There are lots of cool JQuery features with this site as well. It was a lot of fun putting it together.

Street Photography Japan

A collection of Colorful Street Art Photographs taken in Nagano City Japan by Jim Atwood Photography at http://www.jimatwood.net. There is a lot of street around the Nagano City area these days. I am not sure who is doing it all, but there’s quite a bit. I enjoy the colors and the designs are pretty cool too.

The Backstreets of Nagano

Jim Atwood — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 15:21:31 +0000

A couple of gals walking along a backstreet in Nagano near Zenkoji Temple. I thought this scene captured essence of Japan pretty well with the scooter and lantern. Also note that sun umbrellas are very popular in Japan. This is also one of the many shortcut streets the run along parallel to Zenkoji. If you take this backstreet you’ll bypass a ton of people. It’s amazing more Japanese people don’t realize this.
