Flaming sunset

Ello my fellow ninjas!

So its official, I have run out of ideas! The ideas that I do have take time and tons of prep work, not feasible for standard blog deadline.

So i decided to go back to my roots! These shots were not originally taken with my current camera but my very first one. It was a cannon Powershot A480.

This shot showed me that I truly wanted to take photos due to the beautiful color of sunsets and sunrises.

This was taken the first year I came here at occc.


In the coming weeks, look for other shots like these!

So until another time,......shunpo!

Mhm, ham! (13?)

Hello my fellow ninjas! Sorry, about last week, wasn't able to get anything up but I'm back this week!

This one of my favorite hobby's! No not eating!, Cooking! Now, I didn't cook this delicious ham, but it illustrates my love the art!

Cooking is a pleasurable thing I enjoy, but I dislike cooking for others. I would cook sometimes for other, but I don't like doing it very often...

So until another time my fellow ninjas,...shunpo!

Hmm...

 

Just some time to relax and think after a long day. I took this shot after I came home from church at 6:37pm on Sunday. I was very tired, hence I didn't do the original idea for this image to save time and expense. So I give this image of me drinking a box drink while staring off into the darkness of my kitchen.

Until next time my fellow ninjas,... shunpo...

Photo info:

Manual focus

Taken at 6:37pm on Sunday

Edited levels, brightness and contrast, cropped the image to remove distracting elements. Used the clone stamp to fill in unwanted things in the background. Also the clone stamp was used to create the darkness that perminates off to the right side of the image. Sharpened near the end.

Photographers note:

For some reason, this image on certain computers looks really bad. So if you posses one of these computers, I apologize for the appalling image that you see.
