doorbell

it wasn't you.

Monday, August 11, 2008

You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go

And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played in loops 'till it's madness in my head

Is it too late to remind you how we were
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur

Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door

You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far

Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true

Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do

More than anything I want to see you, girl
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world

Testing a theory.

Intro:
The newer cameras have better technology that can do things such as face recognition...
A function on my camera that I could rarely get to work is the smile function.

Technically the smile function does this:
- press shutter as if taking real photo to put it in "smile mode"
- face recognition kicks in
- camera detects face... NEED TO TAKE PICTURE
- camera tells shutter to release.
- picture taken.
no extra button pressing is necessary as long as someone is smiling..

Theory:
Boy had a theory that the smile function will get off whenever something white is around the mouth...

Method:
Cutting out paper mouths with a black marker.
Stick them on mouth.
See if camera captures the image.

Result:

[painting smiling ... the camera detected the fake smile and took the photo]

Conclusion:
Sony aint as smart as it can be.
A painting can't change and smile LOL

Jamie Olivers: Eat to save your life

Force feeding ducks/geese ain't on. :(

I was so shocked to hear how foie gras was made. I knew it was duck liver but I had no idea they had to overfeed the foul to get it that size!
For some reason I have no objection to other meats; I'm not a vegetarian. But overfeeding an animal seems so... harsh?

It's so engorged :-(
(I had images of the two livers up but it sickened me to see it on my plain page...)

World of Lomography

It started with a slight obsession with taking photos.
I want to capture the moment sometimes.
Sometimes memories aren't enough. Visuals can help trigger the good times.

Digi cams are good. They're fine.
They do the job, but until I get an SLR I'm happy playing with lomograph.
Holga 120 with flash is fun but gets annoying since I can't print the photos yet.

THEN came along little mysticblu3 and her smashing 21st present to me
(see the hint in this photo):


Yes sir-eee bob, a fisheye. In bright blue!
Just uploaded my photos from my first ever lomography prints - yess they're not fab as I was getting used to the settings/lighting/best way to take the photos :-) :


(My girly wall of photos. It's literally a load of photos on string tied onto a curtain rod suspended high)


(I've always had an obsession with babushka dolls... they're so sweet)


(Along the Yarra in the city.)

In summary:
my new fisheye makes me happy in the pants.

what's with kids these days?



Get a brain *sigh*
use a dictionary.
be more educated.
appreciate it when your parents cough up the money to send you to a private school.
stop being unappreciative.

they're falling so short from their potentials it's quite sad :(
