As part of my last year’s photography class, I had to make a photo album with some of my work. Rules of the game were:

• Needs to include 95 photos - 40 coloured, 40 black&white, 15 photoshopped.
• Format has to be at least A4.
• Each photo needs a photographic assignment and some notes on things you have learnt from it.
• Each photo must also be accompanied by information about camera model, aperture, ISO, etc.
• No photos of “cute pets” and “gorgeous sunsets”.

After postponing it for months, I’ve finally decided to finish the album last month. I did the layout and sent the pdf for printing to DigiFot. They did a great job printing it, and here are the results:

Photos have been compressed, so may not look their best on screen. Colors also seem to show up more correctly in Adobe Reader than they do in Apple’s Preview. To view better versions of most photos, plus some of the newer ones, I’ve put up a gallery on flickr. It shall be regularly updated.

The photos I consider to be my favorite.

As some of you know, I was part of Zero.99 seminar in Zagreb, talking about web accessibility with Jasna Medar.

All in all, we had a nice trip. The seminar was quite interesting, some reports very informative and we got to see some funny videos as well. Professors were all very impressed with us (ego boosting effect). We got to see Zagreb afterwards as well. It’s a nice city. Looks good trough the wide angle lens, plus a local girl took us to a pub with home brewed beer. Tasty.

There are a couple of ways how you can experience what was going on. Non-slovene speaking readers may have a few problems with these. Just skip to the photos.

Videos
Open these with VLC. It’s best if you just copy the url and paste it into the url field of VLC’s “File -> Open network”
