Go to your favourite Flickr friends’ photos, find photos with people in them, click ‘Add A Note’, type either ‘ho ho ho hat’ or ‘ho ho ho beard’ then add them to the picture.
Have a look at what I did to one of Vinnie’s photos of Brian.
Or what about Damien’s photo of Nicky.
Or Lloyd’s photo of Scoble.
How about Euan’s photo of his rabbit?
Or Adriana’s pic of Euan?
What about a photo of Cillian Murphy from Sunshine?
Go on. Have fun.
The coolest Halloween photo has been added to the Sunshine Flickr Group.
She’s only just joined Flickr, so make sure you click on it and comment.
So far, we’ve had some really cool photos added to the Sunshine Flickr Group “Catching Sunshine“.
Get snapping and add your photos, kids.
In one week’s time I’m going to start this on Sunshine, but I wanted to let people know about it here first.
I’ve been taking loads of pictures of the Sun since I started working on the film. I’m kind of obsessed with it. I took some really cool photos of my son holding the Sun…
…and thought it would be great idea to try and get everyone to start taking pictures of themselves, their friends, their family ‘catching sunshine’ ie a photo of you holding the Sun, kissing the Sun, kicking the Sun, drinking the Sun…
Then upload it to your Flickr account, join our Catching Sunshine group and add the photo there.
Ideally take photos at dawn or dusk in order to get a shot of the Sun and your subject (add a fill flash to be sure), though if you want to take a photo with the noonday Sun - be sure to:
A) lower the exposure of your image. -2 exposure seems to work rather well for me. You will end up with your subject in shadow, but it looks pretty cool.
B) DON’T LOOK AT THE SUN. Get your subject to cast a shadow over the lens of your camera with whatever they are using to catch the sunshine, count to 3 and have them move their hand/foot/face into position and take the photo.
YOU WILL GO BLIND IF YOU STARE AT THE SUN.
I’ve got some good photos with my mobile phone as well (I’m going to upload them to my Flickr account later on), so you don’t need to have a flashy camera to do it…
I’d love it if you could mention it on your blogs to try and get more people to do it…
**edit** Here’s one of the photos I took with my phone camera
