Rainy Day at the Park

Hey all! I figured out how to make the pics on an entry larger! :-D They look so much better when they're bigger.

Anyway, a few days ago during a break in the rain, my two younger brothers and I went for a walk in the park to find a lot of water, lol. I took these pics on the way. I hope you like them!

Oh, and yes, I seem to like to take pictures when the sky is dreary. :P

This is the path......lol.

Which no-longer exists (for the moment)

Siblings! Minus my sis.

Little brother pretending to be a Marine, lol.


The path is in there somewhere....


There it is? Somewhere where he's stepping?


There it is! lol.


My little bro walking on water! He's two feet into the pond! lol.


A nice shot through the trees.


This one's my favorite! The path is supposed to be under that going over near the volley-ball court. I really like the reflections in this one, so I made it a bit bolder with the color contraster.


A safety cone-thing! lol

Guess how I took this shot! I like this one except for the really bad lens spot that I still need to deal with.


There is a path there......

Clean Lens

Hey all. What's the best way to clean your camera lens of a dried-on waterspot without scratching the lens? I really need to know! I took some shots yesterday but some of them have this big 'ole spot on 'em that ruin it. :-(

Recent Hike Photos!

I went to my sister's friend's birthday party yesterday and we went for a short hike up to a waterfall. Here's some shots I got (didn't get much of the falls, too misty for my camera lens). I'm still playing with my watermarking so they are a tad too dark.

Click on them to view larger!
One of my favs.
Though this one has a nice little wall in it.

I like the small waterfall in this one.


That smudge is on the camera. :-P
The most interesting Subway I've seen. XD

The last two are from later in the day when we went to a culturally Danish town nearby. This set of pics is real cool because I really had very little time to take these shots and they turned out awesome!
Please comment!

P.S. Write a PS in your comment with "email" in it and I'll send you an email when I make new entries.

Face shots

Took some head shots of some random kids I know with my camera's full 16x zoom and did just a little touching up with the brightness.





They're obviously grainy but I thought they looked pretty cool. XD Especially as they had no idea I was taking pictures of them, lol. Please comment!

P.S. Still not sure if I should have these face pictures on here.....

Polls (forgot one)

So far the polls (which have only been up for a few days, lol) show that at least 2 people would like to see a post here about once a week. ;-)
Unfortunately, I forgot to add the most likely time, lol, which is "Once Every Two Weeks". So I re-did the poll. :-\
I may post some things once a week if I get a lot of feedback, otherwise probably just once every two weeks untill I run out of pictures, lol, so if you want to see more, provide feedback!

First picture

Some of you have seen this photo already but I like it and it's my only watermarked one. XD


I took it in front of our old house in 2009. It's not the best quality picture in the world, but the sunset on the palms makes it quite pretty. ;-)

In Other News, I made another blog on this account where I can stick random stuff. I called it "Knight's Dilemma" lol. (http://knightsdilemma.blogspot.com/) Comments would be greatly appreciated. ;-D

My cameras

Hey all, just decided to post on the cameras I used to take the pictures I'll get to posting.

The HP Photosmart R817 5.1MP 5x zoom (on the right) and the Canon PowerShot A3100 IS 12.1MP 4x zoom (on the left):


I really liked the HP one before it broke (it got dropped, lol, as you can see). It's much more ergonomic and it's interface is a ton easier to use than the Canon, so much so that I could operate it with one hand on a normal basis! I don't really need or use the full 12 megapixels on the Canon so I really should have got the next higher HP as a replacement instead.
Anyway, these are the cameras I used to take all my pictures. We got the Canon in April 2010 I think so anything in 2009 is from the HP.

Hi

This page is under construction.

I plan to put up some of my nice-looking (mostly landscape) photography every now and then based on the amount of feedback, so if you like it, say so!
