Lazy Sunday

I didn't want to study SAT.. so I touched up pics from Kat's pool partyish thing.













Oh and I decided to start cropping my photos. :D












































Reminds me of Harry Potter.. Just gotta learn how to Photoshop that lightning bolt in.

slow internet :(

my internet really sucks.
I wish i had faster internet.

So I was playing around with Photoshop.  And I found a sharpening tutorial :)
Used it on this.  I think a lot of detail got washed out >.>  Oh well.

Yearbook Camp

I'm really thinking about uploading photos onto Facebook instead.. but not sure.  Massive social connection still gives me the chills sometimes... >.>  People please comment on this?  Thanks!~
Anyways.  Back to actual photos.  I have like.. ~600 from yearbook camp.  Probably going to upload somewhere around ~150?  25%.. That's not bad :)

So we also had a photography contest at the camp.  And we would turn in ~15 photos at the end of each "deadline" and then choose 5 overall to turn in.  Whitney swept ;)  2 Superiors ftw! (ranking = Superior > excellent > honorable mention)  There were ~3 for each ranking  and the photog class.. had quite a few? I dunno.  Oh.  And by the way, there were only two photographers in the photog class from Whitney :P


























David just took the school newspaper and pretty much started reading during morning meeting
















These were really nice.  Almost no post processing at all..  Couldn't get them developed cuz they weren't candid >.>



















I got bored and wanted to see what the flash would look like on Nandi's camera x]  Which is why this picture is so blurry >.> cuz I didnt' have my flash.

























My new wallpaper and icon for messaging!  The dog was like.. an advertising tool by the Pita selling dude to advertise the free drinks at his store.
















One of the few photos where Kevin doesn't look mad.  Though he doesn't look mad when he's trying to be mad :P
















So during Photog class, the second half is pretty much free time to go into other classrooms and shoot photos :)

I like this one better.. Nandi's expression is so much better :P  But it wasn't candid.. so I took another one ;)

* means I turned this one into the photography contest
** means Jenading turned it in.  (She took the picture on my camera.  And I just processed it for her :P)
*** means I think Jen shot it.

To give you guys an idea of before / after of post processing:
