Work, Work, Work, then....... PLAY!!

Hello all
Sorry for not posting frequently. It's just that I'm so busy with work, and yea, it's getting on my nerves. But never-the-less, I've still got the 365 project up and running (57 days to go from now!~) So basically, I've been working. So yea, I haven't been... posting... really.
But don't worry, I've still taken some pretty good pictures, and of course some disgusting pictures, that even I don't know why they tuned out so bad!~ That's pretty sad. *Cries*. But yea, within the month of July, I have found some (not much, but some) new techniques. I've still kept up my partial black and whites, but after reading some more of my magazines, I've found that I can do more with PhotoShop CS4 (Yea, apparently). So far, I've taken a few more studio-like pictures. I've done some overlays (not spectacular as what I thought it was), motion pictures (at a friends' birthday party [iceskating!~ no, I didn't fall. It was just a near-miss]) and some panoramics!
Ahh, panoramics. They are so cool! At first, I thought panoramics was easy to do (well, that's because I never did it properly), but it isn't as easy as what it looks like. At first, I thought I could just take a whole picture, full frame, and then just trim off what I don't want. But no, that didn't turn out good, and it was actually much smaller than what a proper panoramic is supposed to be. By previous versions of panoramic was like a 1000x2000 (estimate pixel size), but now, it's much bigger. It's now about 2000x3000 (estimate pixel size [I can't be bothered to look it up]). So basically, this time I used PhotoShop (yep, I'm making good use of my software), and I merged the 3 pictures together. That's the easiest way I could do it (from reference off a magazine). But yea, there are plenty of other ways such as stitching (yea, like stitching a blanket together). But if you don't do it good, you could end up with lines running down the picture.

Anyways, got to go, and I'm going to upload pictures later. I have actually used up 80% of the data allowance!

Lomography~~

Hello
What is lomography? From my perspective, lomography is this type of camera which takes some awkward types of photography. There are fisheye photos, panoramic photos, etc. and they are all discoloured and a bit on the fuzzy end of photography.
So basically, I got myself into discolouring my photos and trying to make the "lomo" effect on my normal pictures. They turned out good, and they were looking towards the effect. The only complicated part was when you had to select the part you want to outline the focus point. Hence, this is not as simple as the partial black and whites!!
Here you go... some pictures. Enjoy ;)
