some of the last pictures and sources

Another post? Already? Yup. It's true. I'm actually posting. Anyways...yesterday after/while taking notes for the exam I had time to scan in a couple pictures that I've recently taken. These include a special effects moving picture done with Karen and me, sandels on the beach from when we went Wednesday, a firehouse in Allendale (my brother had a game out there and my mom spotted this really neat old firehouse across the street), and a really nice picture of one of my bracelets. I'm really happy how that turned out. I was also able to take some yesterday after notes. I slipped outside into the little courtyard with the picnic table. The first one I took involved turning the camera over 1/2 way through the picture. It turned out nicely. I then tried to take one of the manhole cover, but didn't have anything to balance it on, so I had to hold it. Turns out I'm not very steady. And then I used a beaker from the chem lab and put that in the grass. During math, I also stole some of my friends to do the YMCA for me. :)

and...outside sources:
Dad- helped me build my curved camera
Mom- helped me take several of my pictures
Andrew- helped with several pictures
Alex Mouw, Keren Rottschafer, Laurel Ackerman, James Engles, Lillea Prines, Keeley Jelgerhuis, Joy Merlino, and Anna Joustra- models for my pictures

It was also really fun when I had to take my camera to a different class because I got to explain what it was and how it worked to them. It was interesting to see their reaction when I told them my beat-up Christmas tin was really a camera! :)
