Digital Image – Best Editing Tutorials!

Recommendation: Digital Imaging Tools Usage Made Easy…

I Love Photoshop » I work with it every so often…
Basically, I do only the simple stuff (and I’m more than happy with the results).
Sometimes, I need to do more than the usual basics –
Then, I bust my balls, trying to figure out “How To Do” whatever needs doing.

Lucky me –
Lately, I came across this wonderful wordpress blog Photography & Illustration.
It is full of Tips and Tricks for Graphic designers – Armatures and Pros alike…
There are some Great Tutorials one can learn from almost everything.
Covering tools such as Adobe’s Acrobat, Illustrator, Lightroom and Photoshop.

I strongly recommend bookmarking it for emergency photo-fixes…


Trip N’ Burn presents : Banana Pealed with Photoshop ©

Believe me, before editing this picture with Photoshop –
The banana was not pealed — or was it ???

I’m going Ba-Na-Nas,
And I feel like my mind is being devoured by Piranhas…

Burning Man Photo: Butts Portfolio…

Burning Butts of Burning Man Festival.

For all of you who loved my “Critical Tits Bicycle Ride” post (and many did),
I decided to introduce here yet another fun dish: Buttfolio.
As one can imagine – it is a portfolio of Great Buts of Hot Chicks with round Buns.
Those are usually referred to as: Playa Chicks (we love them) –
They are HOT Chicas, with a Cool attitude which gives a sense of Sexual Freedom (not slutty Crack Whores – but Free in Spirit) as they walk around Naked – not ashamed of their perfect bods…

Some of them stopped to pose for a Kodak Moment turning into an Art Object –
Like this one — Nice Butt ( makes you wanna sniff it ) :

Burningman Cultural Anthropology:
I am a fan of the concept of Playa Chicks – Not necessarily naked Hotties –
I also love them when they are dressed up with Cutting Edge Crazy Costumes…
Mojo like Beauty Sexiness… – Ya ???
Me – I’m actually quite the Feminist (Sexism is not my Culture Beliefs).

By the way -X- don’t bother looking for the web site –
I tried to find it and couldn’t – the URL address is Fucking Bullshit!

Hot Buns… Straight from the Oven –
Yet another Burning Man Festival Photo…

Here is a nice photo 4 U guys (of 4 pairs of tits) – Were else, but in Burning Man.

I decided to give you some more of the same dish…

So here’s three pairs of tits on the roof of an RV with a lucky bastard –

No Fucking Bullshit, it is a Heartbreak form of Art – Look and Weep…
And Remember – You don’t need Visas to go there !!!

Hot Topless playa chicks on a Hot RV roof top – It is no Art, But they are Nude in a Parking Lot (even if in Black Rock)…

Eccentric America

Amazing Facts : The nostalgic Utopia of America is Fucking Trippin’ all over –

I tripped over this crazy book in Amazon – can’t figure out how exactly…
Apparently it is “a Guide to all things wacky, weird, curious, and bizarre in the U.S.A.” –
Of course the cover picture is from Burning Man, and that made me hungry !!!
The book is called “Eccentric America” and was written by: Jan Friedman.


The Plucked Rat presents : This Book cover picture that was taken from Amazon

From the Back Cover
Offering a provocative look at over 1,000 of the quirkiest people and places on the fringes of mainstream tourism, Eccentric America leads you to the country’s most unforgettable experiences.
The second edition of this award-winning book has been thoroughly updated, with 330 totally new entries, regional calendars of wacky festivals and events, and an intriguing “Heights of Eccentricity” map of the United States. An entertaining and funny read, it’s also a comprehensive guide to a side of American culture you won’t want to miss.

One user’s review on this book said: “My other books live on a shelf, but this one lives in my suitcase! I take this marvellous guide with me whenever I travel. When I get back home and show my photos around, everyone’s always amazed at my ability to seek out the odd and quirky. I’ve checked out similar guides, but this one stands far above the others. And the second edition has lots of new material, so I’ve happily retired my tattered and worn first edition. Very highly recommended!”
– – Timothy Klein (Dallas, Texas)

Personally I’ve just added it to my shopping list – can’t wait till I put my hand on it…
The only thing come to mind is : ” Fucking Bullshit man – I have to go this year !!!

I recommend a Trip to Crazy Burning Man Festival – I think every one should go (and don’t forget the videos)…

Hi Y’all -and- Welcome…

The Plucked Rat welcomes y’all to his Trippin Burning Man Blog

Hi Y’all – I’m a Trippin’ Burner – I’m a Sucker for them both (and though I’m a QA engineer, deep inside, I’m still the Artist I always dreamed of becoming). So, this is my first post (Lovely, Bovely Jovely)… In my “TripN’Burn” blog, I want to write about Road Tripping in the West Coast (in general), and about Trippin’ from San Francisco, California – all the way to Black Rock desert, Nevada – Home of the Burningman (in particular) — but, not only this — I will also be giving my best shot at Video, Contemporary Art, Performance and New Media Critique.

To begin – I would have to give the credit to Burning Man, one of the places this passion of mine started at -and- definitely the best place I ever went trippin’ on.
At burningman 2000 I took over 30 hours of video footage and I’ve been dieing to share some of them with the world – So welcome to my blog and… whatever…
