I see stars

She who must be obeyed is a fan of twinkly things. Jewellery of course, and if the jewellery twinkles can be augmenting some vile Japanese cartoon creation, then that is even more pleasing to her eyes. She also like twinkles in photos. When she saw this…

..she demanded to know how I made the little stars and how she could do the same. I explained that these stars were due to a stopped down Voigtlander lens and no she couldn’t borrow it.

Small huff, but then she was away on some other wishlist; but she does occasionally return to the desire to make little stars in her photos.

And now she can, thanks to Topaz Stars which allows you to take a boring shot like this:

And turn it into a boring shot like this, but with stars:

Easy to use and only $19.99 introductory price, worth it so that my wife can have some extra twinkle in her life whenever she wants it.

I think I’ll spend the $20 elsewhere. Those stars are pretty small. Took me 5 minutes to find them!

Well, I was being subtle; it’s my nature. If you want massive fuck-off stars of many colours with rays that obliterate the heavens; you can have them. But you’d do better to save your dollars and get Black & White Effects which is genuinely useful.

I get the same effect when I haven’t cleaned my glasses properly and there are smears. Annoys the hell out of me.

Try wearing contact lenses and driving at night when your eyes are watering…
