Open Eyes
Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007A rare picture of Christian Jr. with his eyes open.
I spent some time playing with Flickr and talking photography dorkyness with Veirs last night. Picassa rocks and makes me want to use a PC again - sorta.
Unfortunately I recently broke my digital camera. Of course, as soon as I break it I all of a sudden have a photograpy itch I need to scratch. Stacey said I could use her camera, but it’s not quite the same.
I was thinking about taking a step up in photography, but I wondered what other people thought. If I go get a Digital SLR or SuperZoom camera, that would be rather bulky. If I can’t fit it in my pocket I may hesitate to carry the camera around to parties and such. Honestly I need two cameras, the easy to carry and all-powerful camera. Will the next generation of camera phones weighing in at 1.3 megapixels or more be able to fill the portability gap? Should I just buy two cameras? How much is photography worth?

I’m so thankful that there are creative people out there with brilliant ways to use existing tools. This guy came up with a way to use the new iPhoto ‘05 along with their new printing services to create a “Life Poster”. It’s a poster made up of 98 of your favorite photos. I made one last night and hopefully will have it in a few days. Lovely.
