Summer and Ice Cream

Dennis

Got this photo via whatsapp today. Family from Thuringia did send me the photo. What a tasty ice cream. Reminds me I should go eat ice cream soon too! I love it if you can be connected with family and friends even if they are far away. I am always happy if I get photos from them and if they tell us what they do and experience there in Thuringia. This is why modern technology is awesome. But now, I am simply hungry for ice cream. We have some great ice cream shops in Lübeck too and I think I … Continue reading Summer and Ice Cream

I don´t have nightmares, I create them!

Dennis

I was a little bit bored today and sometimes if you are bored, then it might be a good idea to go through own photo material or photoshop project´s and so. And it was a good idea because I found one lolcat meme which I thought needs a little improvement. I disliked the clearly visible reflection on the eye of my cat. I also thought that it would be funny to change the eye color with a more aggressive green colour value. I am not a photoshop professional but removing a reflection with the stamp tool or changing the colour … Continue reading I don´t have nightmares, I create them!

The Most Commonly Used Meme Font And A Tutorial How To Create A Meme With Photoshop

Dennis

Have you ever asked how the most commonly used meme font is called? I can give you the answer. The font is called Impact. Impact is included in the “core fonts for the web” package and has been distributed with Microsoft Windows since Windows 98, which means you should have the font already installed if you use this any Microsoft operating system. The very thick strokes of the Impact font are aimed, as the name suggests, to “impact” or  in other words to stand out. The Impact font is commonly used for funny Internet memes like the Lolcat images. If … Continue reading The Most Commonly Used Meme Font And A Tutorial How To Create A Meme With Photoshop

We used the Barbecue Grill again…

Dennis

My mother and her husband invited me on Wednesday again for a barbecue. At the end of april we had our first barbecue of 2013. But this week we had our second barbecue. And it was again very tasty. We grilled paprika spiced pork meat for example. This meat was so delicious even without dip. I did eat them with and without dip. We also ordered a salad for each of us. Usually my mother would create the salad but it was pretty late to get cucumbers or tomatoes. We ordered the salad from the Kebab Store where the husband … Continue reading We used the Barbecue Grill again…

Weekly Photo Challenge: Pattern

Dennis

The photo above is my contribution to the “Weekly Photo Challenge: Pattern“. I took the photo in the St. Marien Church in Lübeck when my me and my mother walked through the Historic Downtown of Lübeck. The church is like most churches in Lübeck pretty huge. I am not so religious but anyway interested in culture and I count the churches of Lübeck to culture and that is why I still like to take photos of them. Because they show what kind of great brick gothic architecture, you can find in my city. Here are two more photos… Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Pattern

Never Mess Around With Me. I´m a Lolcat!

Dennis

The son of my mother´s husband did send me a pretty good photo of his cat. The overall quality of the image was not that great but I changed the image to black and white with Photoshop because I know that this effect can improve the quality of slighty overexposed photos. I also added a little bit more contrast and also made some gamma corrections. I think the photo is now a little bit more respectable. He caught his own cat in the right moment. His cat gave a yawn and looks like he took the photo in the right … Continue reading Never Mess Around With Me. I´m a Lolcat!
