Do I go with the Master chief angle?

Perhaps the angelic laptop angle?

Saturn rings?

May I also add that given the state of your current ranking, you are, in fact, an oxymoron.

...or was, in the SLR days. i think it's called "Night Portrait" in the point-and-shoot-digital days. :)

the point is that the shutter opens, a flash fires off, but the shutter STAYS open for several seconds. ...which results in something that looks exactly like those shots.

I don't think the question is if this is real or not... the question is why would anyone waste their time building this stupid pointless crap?]]>Apr 7th 2008 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/Apr 7th 2008 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/

...or "gets a mention on engadget for building some stupid pointless crap" is another possible answer.

And he said he used a red acryllic filter over the lens to create the colored effect, actually he mentions specifically that none of the images are Photoshopped.

But you wouldn't know that, because I'm the only one here dumb enough to read this pointless article.]]>Apr 7th 2008 5:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/
as for the colors, you sit the guy down for a second with the laptop, use a flash, turn off screen, put a cheap rosco filter (or just clear plastic bag with marker on it) in front of the lens, start the machine spinning, start the current. this entire time you have the shutter open in a pitch black room (notice the basement). presto, exactly the same photo, though it works much better with two people and a filter holder instead of screwon, since it seems that someone moved the camera during two of those exposures]]>Apr 7th 2008 7:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/Apr 7th 2008 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/Apr 7th 2008 4:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/Apr 7th 2008 4:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/07/high-voltage-antivirus-halo-protects-your-laptop-keeps-you-vi/
