Goofy? Part Deux.

:bulletyellow: My beautiful Golden Retriever, Jules, passed :bulletyellow: away the summer of '08.
He was my best friend for over eight years and I know he's gone to doggie Heaven for being such an amazing animal.
This will forever stay up on the top of my profile in memory of him.

:bulletblue: Fave and run as much as you like. It's all good. :bulletblue:

You will see an array of photography from 2007 to today.

You can also find literature and a tiny bit of digital and traditional art among my camera art.

You will be able to see how I've grown with my photography and various experiments I've preformed in my career ranging from yellow-stained photographs to Polaroids to pixel icons.

Just please remember that comments like, "it looks like it's been peed on" is not constructive criticism and please remember that this is not a professional portfolio.
Tell me how I can do better from artist to artist (with some sense), not what you think of as a viewer. Being a photographer for only two years, I don't critique other people and I usually don't take people seriously unless I'm really impressed with their work (much more skilled than I am). I couldn't care less about what a less-experienced camera junkie thinks.

Thank you. :3

Thank you all so much for keeping with me and watching me. I haven't been too active over the month. There's been a lot going on for me including school and friends. I take a nap almost every day after school. I usually don't get my Pre-Cal. homework done and I try to get my Chemistry and Painting & Drawing homework done during Driver's Ed while I'm waiting to drive. However, my dad just won an auction on Ebay for a new lens for the camera!

I've been stuck with the crap lenses they gave us along with the camera, but now we're going to have a nice Nikon AF-S DX 35mm f/1.8G lens. This lens should give me better quality in my images in the dark and with movement and it should give me a much cooler effect called bokeh which is when an object is in focus and the background is blurry. Bokeh is an effect I've been wanting to get in my own photos, but the lenses we have won't let me do that unless I'm super close up to that object (like in Aloha and The Climb.) So, hopefully it'll come in before Halloween.

There's a lot going on around here now that it's Pumpkin Time. The Fair is starting on Thursday this week (a super huge thing in the tri-county area here), Halloween is Saturday and I plan on going trick-or-treating at my church with my best friend and her boyfriend and maybe some more friends, and homecoming is next week. My group (my best friend, her boyfriend, a super old friend of mine who had a super crush on me this summer, and a couple that I just started hanging out with this summer) is going to the Fair this Friday!!! It's going to be soo fun!!! It's the best thing that ever happens around here. Also, my mom might be taking me downtown in the city on Halloween to shop even though the clothes there don't get under $19. After that is trick-or-treating at the church and maybe around town. Then, there's homecoming.
Hopefully it'll stay warm like it has been through this week and next. I hate standing in those lines in the cold while those rides rush buy blowing wind at me, making it even colder. I'm definitely going to the homecoming game and I am going to have to go to the Fair again to see my art in one of the exhibits. I did a Sharpie drawing of a violin which turned out amazing. Hopefully I can get it back and get it on here or at least feature it in a photo. I still have to come up with a name, though!

So, I really hope I get to get to take pictures during some of these events, but I might be too busy having fun. I have all the time in the world to work on my photography, but less than a day for each of these events. I'll try to be more active afterwords, but I still have school to take on and kick ass at.

Thank you and have an amazing day.
Caty E.

P.S. It's my grandmother's birthday tomorrow (the 26th) and I'm totally in love with this jazzy singer I discovered, Michael Buble!!!
