Fantasyjackpalance photos - featuring over 4000 photos of modern Dublin City and the things around us. Photos available for use with very few restrictions.

I use a Digital camera to take all the photos on fantasyjackpalance. It's a FujiFilm Finepix 1400 Zoom. It does a pretty good job, but it's not as good as my Nikkormat (Nikon) 35mm SLR camera (which is credited where used on fjp). But the Digital Camera is the real mainstay of FJP, having taken over 10,000 photos since I got it in Jan 2001 (now Aug 2002). Zero processing costs and rechargable batteries have allowed me to take pictures of whatever I want, whenever I want, which is exactly what I do.

I use a professional photo editing package called Photoshop 6.0.1 to edit photos in the computer enviroment. I generally correct any mistakes in lighting the camera would have made, rotate the picture until it's straight, and then crop it if necessary.

2003 - obviously with the photo section closed, the digital camera is now unused. It sat on the floor of my studio/garage for some time until I lent it to someone else for an indefinite period of time.

2004 - I actually got this thing in late 2003, but who cares. I shoot panoramic shots to slide fillm using a 120 degree rotating lense camera called a Horizon 202. Here's the nicest 202 info page I've found, accompanied by a nice set of example photos.
