Panoramas.

Downloaded a programme at vast expense that is just as good as Photoshop at making them, as I didn't want to chance Apple and Adobe not making an update any time soon.

I am going to the Isle of Wight today, everyone else is going ice skating, I am not, I hope.

Grr.

Currently have no time to work on this.
AAAAAnd, Photoshop is playing up, damn you Snow Leopard, hopefully it will be alright before I properly start this project because otherwise I won't be able to show any development and will have to use the uni macs. Urgh.

So, I should have a spare moment Monday-ish, by which time I'll probably also have work for uni. Enjoy the mega uploads when they come...

Whatup?

Photos from Barn dance up soon, don't think it will contribute to my project, but still..

Lighting Lecture.

It was pretty interesting, well as interesting as a lecture on lighting can be... basically a lecture where we got shown a load of images and had to 'guess' where the light was coming from and how it was lit.




Key: Look at eyes and shiny things for clues.

It was alright though, it was much better than the terrible 'Victorian' photography lecture I had yesterday where I had to look at images like this:



I don't favour images of the exploited or dead... or parts of them. At least that's one thing I learnt yesterday.
I think I'm going to enjoy this year regardless though, even though it's seemingly tougher and tougher to get up and in on time, I think it's lack of proper sleep.
I want to go out clubbing, I'm not good at going to bed early anyway. :(
