star8 filter

with 11 comments

one of the “goodies” I got from Hong Kong for my camera (mentioned a while ago) was a “star8 filter”. These are my two test photos:

  2. ?Que pasa hermosa? It’s been a while. I just wanted to say what’s up, see how you are doing; by the looks of it I would have to conclude your blog has been a great success for the obvious reasons. Would you like to bring me up to speed with the recents of the old little blog clique we had going on!?

  3. Interesting… looks like something out of cartoons or comic books when they draw shiny things. Be sure to try the filter at night looking at a cityscape. Or long exposures of night time traffic, I’m trying to visualise the effect it would have on their head/taillights – it’d be like a long ‘tube’ of an 8-pointed star?! Satisfy my curiosity!
