Night Shots..

SO.

In photo class we had an assignment this week to get a night shot.. We put our SLR's on manual.. Throw it on a tripod and shoot away.. The photo's i "did" get were pretty nice.. It was cool to just mess around a little bit and see what i could do.. BUT.. Near the beginning of when i was shooting.. I had a little accident... I got enough shots that i'll be able to get one for my assignment.. But.. My camera took some damage. The tripod i signed out from school was not fully healthy to say the least. :( One of the legs would not not tighten.. I wish i had of known, because when i set it up to take a picture of some trees, i turned the other way and down it went.. :'( LUCKILY my camera still works and takes pictures perfectly fine.. But part of me lens broke off.. And when i turn the lens to zoom its not smooth, it's choppy. So.. I will defiantly be needing a new Nikon 18-55 mm lens.. Which goes for about 175$..

At least the camera still works.. So i can wait a little longer before i get my new lens.. But.. Lets just say it OVERLY sucks.. And I'm not using used tripods from school anymore.. Thats for sure.

Once i get the night shots i 'did' get all edited.. Ill post to show what i got before the great fall.

Until then..

farewell..

Our Pumpkin Person!

Jethro! Our own pumpkin person! Who Chris and i made ourselves.. We carved the head earlier that Thanksgiving day.. Not thinking that we would eventually make a person out of it! Later on in the evening we headed to my home.. And saw how many leaves were around my yard.. And i remembered from the Thanksgiving the year before when i went to the Valley with Julia.. And there were fields FULL of all kinds of pumpkin people! So.. We got the clothes together.. Filled them with leaves.. Got him a hat and some mittens and there he was! Jethro! Our Pumpkin person! You could say we were pretty proud with the finished product :)

My Favorite Book : Stars

I was always late, you never afraid, that we could be falling
All our friends would say, maybe we should wait, but they can't see what's coming
And to this day, when everything breaks, you are the anchor that holds me

And that is why we'll always make it

How I know your face, all the ways you move, you come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone, to make me come alive

When the days are long, and the thunder with the storm, can always get me crying
You can make my bed, I'll fall into it, shattered but not lonely
Because I never knew a home, until I found your hands, when I'm weathered
You come to me, you're my best friend

And that is why we'll always make it

How I know your face, all the ways you move, you come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone, to make me come alive

How I know your face, all the ways you move, you come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone, to make me come alive

When you go to work all the day I wait
For you to come home, recount our time, in our little place

500 Days of Summer..

I have labelled this movie my all time favorite movie up to this point in my life.. And thats a big statement as I'm a huge movie person.. Name it, I've seen it.. So this is big.

Iy has everything i would want in a movie.. My favorite actors, romance, bitter sweetness, tears, sadness, humor, art, AND probably the best combination of songs throughout the movie along with an amazing soundtrack! :)

Its an independent film that was in the Sundance Film Festival, which makes it even better in my eyes. Lets just say I'm in love with it completely! I can't wait for it to finally come out on DVD.. I'll be first in line to buy it, thats for sure!

SO, if you looking for an amazingly sad/funny/beautiful love story.. Watch this movie! (If you have good music taste you will love it even better!)
