Wood textures
2007-08-19 22:28:00 Make an object appear to look like wood Without texture the 3D environment is nothing more than a series of flat surfaces, with maybe a single color on a given surface. To make an object appear to look like wood, the Artist needs to capture a wood texture and put it on the object. Photographs can be used as the basis of the composition. Occasionally, they may need to be modified to appear seamless by the artist. 3d artists know that the texture they use can make the difference between a good or a great final image. FeaturePics has a huge portfolio of "wood grain" photographs to choose from. These are some examples of patterns and colors you can use to create texture variations for complete texture sets.

Matthew'a pictures
2007-08-09 08:41:00 Hello. My name is Matthew , and I have been taking images for the better part of my life. A few years ago I put away my film camera and went strictly digital. I love how digital works, and how quick it is for my clients to get their images fast. Although now I am considering dusting off the old film Minolta, but will continue to shoot with the digital. I love to travel, as do most photogs, and so a large amount of my images are from around the world, but mostly from S. California where I reside. Photo graphy is not only a business, but a hobby, and a passion. Thank you for taking the time to look at a few of my images...

Outsider's stock photographs
2007-08-08 07:22:00 I was 10 years old when I got my first amazing camera, a "Lubitel 166U" and then, all that fun with Black & White photography equipment began. As a result of this obsession, the floor in the bathroom was constantly wet with the developing fluids of photo processing? Now I?m using a digital SLR what is much cleaner, cheaper, and helps me a lot with my designer job. All Outsider's images This weblog is sponsored by FeaturePics Images.

High-concept photography by Valentino Sani
2007-08-08 07:17:00 High-concept photography by Valentino Sani In our modern world of web sites, blogs, forums, etc we need images that explore and illustrate the ideas we have. Some of us can come up with an image with a story behind it, but only some. I asked Valentino, a high-concept photographer, how he comes up with images that demonstrate and amplify his ideas. I think it would be interesting for you to read his answers..... "Simplicity is another word that is important to me. I often think that less is better. One of my best images (besteller) is open female hand in blue, with orange butterfly over it. Just two elements. And stunning color contrast."> Image above Freedom -- a female hand in gesture of giving freedom to an orange butterfly High-concept photography by Valentino Sani This weblog is sponsored by FeaturePics Images.
