The Next Entry

Thu Nov 12, 2009, 8:51 AM
Yellow,

It's been a while since my Last? entry and I thought I'd post a short update on my life.

I never got the passes I wanted for the two festivals, but instead I got to shoot a few shows of the great Icelandic group Sólstfir. All in all, I experienced all the gigs they played in Finland this year. They finished their European tour in Turku, so I ventured there with no place to stay for the night. The next morning I woke up at the band's hotel, with only vague memories of the previous night. Luckily I had a few photos on my camera to refresh my memory. When I returned home and got the images transferred to my computer, my power supply decided to break down. For the past few weeks I've lived without my primary pc and photoshop.

I got some great shots from the Black Flames of Blasphemy fest as well, but as my means of doing post processing are very limited right now, I'm not gonna put any up. Hopefully I'll get my pc fixed next week. We'll see ^^

In the meantime, I'm going to spend a lot of time reading and enjoying good tea. Hope you're all doing well!

  • Mood: Irritated
  • Listening to: Laibach - Dogs of War
  • Reading: Robert E. Howard - The Hour of the Dragon
  • Playing: ADOM
  • Eating: chocolate ice cream
  • Drinking: ginger flavored white tea

Thank you! Glad you found something that pleases you. Cameras are way harder to operate than broadswords, though, so I have a lot to learn...
:iconchemicalwedding:
That is true, but honestly, I prefer my broadsword ^_^

Have you taken any classes or anything? A few of those landscapes look utterly phenomenal. Very professional.

No classes... I have a few books and I've read tons online, plus I have a few friends who either do photography for a living or study the art, whom I have consulted every now and then. Mostly I learn by doing. Patience is the key ^^ But thank you for the nice words, I'll try to live up to your expectations in the future.

May your sword spill rivers of blood whenever it is unsheathed!
:iconchemicalwedding:
Well, it's working for you. That's sort of the same way I go about it, I guess. I have been reading my camera manual and my sister-in-law and a few friends are professionals, so I have lots of people to offer guidance ^_^

May your axe cut your enemies like parchment whenever it resides in your hands!
