Painted Photoshop Kitty


I was bored yesterday in the evening and started to work on a photo with Photoshop and you can see the result above. I found one photo of Shyna that I didn’t like for some reasons, you can find the original below, but I usually try to do something else with photos when I dislike them.

No Luck With Flying Birds


The photo above is rather experimental, nothing I am proud about. I try to take photos of flying birds, but I had not much luck.

I basically had to come to a decision if I wanted to renew the second domain or not. I still like the idea to create a pure tech and gaming blog with the other domain but there are of course still some concerns as the second blog would basically compete with the technology category of my first blog here. But at the end it doesn’t matter, because a domain renewal doesn’t cost … Continue reading The Dusty Tech Blog Domain
