Feel free to comment
Passing
When the day dies and you’re all alone
I close my eyes and look around
I realise there’s no one home
Your still here with me
Sitting alone in a crowded room
Looking around for you to show
I make a move to slip away
You speak to me and we go
Many days have passed since you
Many nights drag without you
In a world all alone
I miss you
New days have yet to dawn
New life to be born
In this world alone
How do I go on
New days have dawned
I have been reborn
In a world so warm
I love again
I feel no cold,
I love again,
I know I am loved again.

Congrats, Terry!!! Have fun with the new toy!
For those that are interested, here's the setup I used to shoot both my low key shot and my acronym shot. Cost is quite minimal - you need a shop light from Home Depot or your local equivalent (Hornbach here where I live) and a piece of white posterboard. Granted, I ain't gonna win any awards for a studio setup, but it works for my purposes!

UPS man is due to me tomorrow, less exciting though, new sensor cleaner and a 6gb pocket hard drive (just popped into my head, "Is that a hard drive in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me") ohh the child in me ;-)

Jealousy abounds. The government seems to be having "technical difficulties" (their words) - our refunds, which they claim was direct deposited on Monday the 5th, is nowhere to be found.
No refund = no camera

Too funny. The first thing I did when my refund was deposited was buy a new camera =) |

Kashi, I really hope they get that sorted soon. I know it's got to be VERY aggravating for you, but hang in there. It'll happen! |

It is - but I'm just SO glad that the camera was the only thing the money was earmarked for. It's not like we needed it for rent or food, or something truly needed, ya know ?
I indulged in a little photo therapy - might as well make the most of the P&S before it's retired, right ? I'm in for circles.

I want to thank everybody in the interest, and very nice comments on my picture. So I start writing about how my Low Key photo was shot, then I said “woops” it might be considered a problem, since it has something to do with my Free Study shot. I will gladly fill in the blanks as soon as voting on Free Study is done..

or, from the news at 6 just now, 'a computer glitch'.. ain't it great that the entire contry's taxes can be held up by a computer glitch? although, at least they're stopping it now, not when all our sin numbers and taxes have beenbroadcast to the world, or some other such foolishness.
hope the dosh comes through quickly. apparently the tax people say tomorrow - h&r block say don't hold your breath. hmm.

Very nice, Darren!
Kashi, hang in there. You'll get your money, and in 6 months you'll barely remember the wait.

Hey, I'm doing pretty well in Red:
Votes: 55
Views: 104
Avg Vote: 5.8545
Comments: 4
Favorites: 1
If this holds, then in 3 of the past 5 challenges I'll have scored 5.8 or above and gotten a favorite. :)
We just won't discuss free study or furniture, each of which will land around 5.1.

For red, I used the widest aperture available on my lens (f/3.5) after reading on Larus' profile that he almost always shoots using very wide aperture. I usually would have gone for about a f/5.6 on the photo I submitted. I was very pleased with the result. It has just the right DOF in my opinion. And of course it is very sharp, because I was able to use ISO 100 and fast shutter speed with that wide aperture. I don't know, of course, how it would have scored with a smaller aperture, but I think this was a good move. Just wanted to pass on a new "tip" that is worth some exploration. |

ok...I can shoot in RAW now cause I got the new camera. Ummm..I have no idea what to do with it. Does anyone know where I can read up on it. I did a search in the forums and I can't find anything much. |

People talk about turning their scores off, how do you do that? I so do not want to look at my Red crash and burn anymore. I do believe that it will take last place. |

Go to your preferences, there is a place that you can check shut off scores and comments during voting. |
