Devious Journal Entry

Journal Entry: Sun Jan 20, 2008, 12:45 PM




So, I seem to have a bit of a handle on this CSS thing now, and I figured it was time to finally put my CSS journal into action.

I've been learning, steadily, on the new camera, but there's not much that I'd be happy enough to put up here yet, as it's mostly just playing around with objects. Honestly, overall, it's just not good enough for dA yet, but I may post a thing or two into scraps as I learn.

The camera is great so far. I can't get over how crisp and clear everything is. I can hardly wait to really know it and get out there taking pictures again. I've got so much I want to do with it. Ahh, inspiration.

I've been working on organising my gallery a little bit, but it's been slow so far. I really like what they've done with our gallery options. It's going to be so nice to actually be able to organise things according to subject, and even to order them according to how much I like them, rather than just being stuck with reverse chronological order. Kudos to the dA team for that!


This is Very Exciting!:excited:

I've been invited to participate in a project that :iconsimplyfate: is working on. All of the detailes are available here. Please take a look at this amazing project and link others to it, as well. It's a great idea and a great cause.

I've been asked to put together a selection of 3-4 of my own photographs for possible inclusion in the book. I need your help! I'm not even sure where to start. What do you think I should submit?

I belong to

Best of luck to you as well! The learning curve, as it turns out, is pretty steep, but I've got some experience with SLR myself, so while steep, it's not that bad. :)

I'll be keeping an eye out for your new stuff as well. We seem to photograph some of the same things!

Thanks so much!

There will be more soon. I'm still learning my new camera, so I'm still not completely happy with anything I've taken with it yet. Soon, though, soon. ;)

Doesn't surprise me. I think it's a very good shot, long hair is sexy, and I'm certain that it generates a lot of curiosity. :)

Thanks so much.

I thought it was a pretty boring picture, but it got a ton of views and a few favs within minutes. :O_o:

For some reason, your frames make me think: Polaroid moment instead of Kodak. Beautiful gallery.
