Former freelance web developer Barbara Jacob was on the verge of breakdown because of appalling customers behavior and the huge mortgage she had to repay for all her foreseeable life. So one day she escaped to London, where she isn't happier but at least she can keep the wolf from the door. Well, and now that we are here, what we will do with our life?

Category: Images Christmas in London

Around Christmas I've taken some piccies here and there. Nothing special, as usual, just for fun.

Evil cooks

In these days I've found myself a couple of times involved in discussions about Gordon Ramsay, whose TV antics I find rather entertaining - but I still don't get how he could have become such a superstar. And quite frankly, I find a lot more interesting the original baddie of English stoves stardom, Marco Pierre White. In this picture, he looks like some gangsta from a Sixties French movie.

Brighton e Hove

Con il brutto tempo, i londinesi non scendono a Brighton, che rimane piacevolmente deserta.

A Portobello

Madonna che nostalgia... ci tornerei già.

Portobello
A questo simpatico pescivendolo rubizzo ho chiesto il permesso di fotografarlo. Mi sentivo tanto turista giapponese.

Portobello
Questa è un po' fotoscioppata, ma molto poco. C'era davvero una luce strana.

Portobello
La zdaura era arzillissima e le lampadine molto natalizie.

Portobello
Ho comprato una borsa viola, però non qui.

Portobello
La bellezza di una vacanza la misuro anche dal numero di ice coffee che riesco ad ingollare. Too-much-coffee-woman. Mi vergogno a dire che in realtà questo nella foto era in uno Starbucks, l'odiatissima ed onnipresente catena di franchising. Ma era veramente squisito: per un ice coffee perfetto /me disgraziata passa sopra a molte cose.

Piccies

Volevo fare una macro per photosciocc per questo effettaccio ma so che non lo farò mai, per cui ve lo spiego in breve:

- duplicate il layer
- quello sopra, gaussian blur 10
- quello sopra, blend multiply
- FINE!

L'effetto è che i colori sbavano in un modo stranamente piacevole. Viene meglio con le foto decisamente high-key e molto sature, dunque non esitate a pasticciare preliminarmente l'immagine. Non ricordo chi me l'ha raccontato, mi sa che è uno dei più vecchi trucchi del libro.
