Hello All ;]

Sorry, I was gone for the week, I was up north.

The good thing about that was that I managed to take some really awesome pictures of scenery. But I'm too lazy to look for my camera. So they'll be up tomorrow!!

Out of Focus

(I know this is my third post today, but I'm incredibly bored, and it's freezing outside, and there's so much snow. Speaking of which, I should go take some pictures off the snow...)

Out of Focus is a book I just recently finished. The writer is Margaret Buffie. There are many topics in the book, but the one I wanted to talk about was the fact that the main character (Bernice Dodd) is a photographer. She is sixteen, and uses her camera like a third eye.

The thing I found interesting was that she only uses black and white film. She explains how her dad told her he liked black and white pictures, and that's where she gets it from. She uses the black and white film because she and her dad believes that you can really see what is going on in a person without the mask of colour.

I have been trying this out, and it feels like it's happening, but maybe that's just because I'm finding I like taking black and white photographs better.

***Just thought I'd let you know, I'm not a professional photographer or anything, taking pictures is just a hobby I recently got into, and I take all my pictures with an average digital camera***

Some edited pictures

I'll be putting a lot of the pictures I take, the pictures I edit, and the pictures I draw, so here's my favourites.

The one with the bird I found on the internet, and I started to edit it. I tried to put the main focus of the picture on the bird.

The second one with the lake I took, but it was really dull and blurry (I took it on a moving bus.) So I edited it, but it's one of my earlier edits, so now I can see it's not straight, and everything is way to bright.

The final one I'm posting is my favourite. The only thing I do not like about it is the sky, it looks fake. I like it because the leaves were originally green and dull, and I've always liked leaves orange, for some reason....
