Way back at the start of the millenium, I used to lurk on the edges of a wonderful geek forum called Guru3D. I learned a lot about computer hardware from Guru3D, I also made friends with some wonderful geeks, two of whom have remained online friends ever since.
One of those old friends is George Panayiotou. George is a talented photographer and graphic designer who pops into this blog every now and then. He also uses Maya, the same top end graphics package the Offspring uses. The thing I envy the most though, is George’s ability to see, and capture, the breathtaking in the ordinary. Here are some favourites from amongst his older photos:
And here’s one I had on my desktop for a long time:
You can see some of George’s more recent work, including another stunning photo, here:

Why did I click on the link? :S I knew where it was going!
Thank you so much! But to be honest i think my photo skills have gone a bit rusty. I haven’t been on a photo expedition for some time now dude to not having time because of a project of mine.
(I’m looking at the second image and i’m like “God it has so much barrel distortion…)

It’s what happens when you open up your wide angle lens and go really wide and it makes stuff look bloated. See how the window’s lines aren’t straight but instead a bit bent and make the center look as if it’s bloated like a barrel?

Erm…can’t say I noticed! Every time I look at that pic I just feel as if I’m in that room, looking out in wonder…and really glad that I’m not outside!
