HMMMmmmm wow^^ 1999 views^^ this is great!
it's a good start for the new year^^

However... due to the bills piling up and my
housemate leaving tomorrow for canada.. leaving
me to pay all the bills alone and not looking
for someone to take the space I have to decided
to have my internet connection cut...
to save some money...

so I can not be able to post as much as beforeㅠㅠ
and I can't see my friends too...ㅠㅠ and I can't
see my friends' artworksㅠㅠ

well it has to be done...
my connection will probably be cut for a good 6 months
until my housemate comes back.. or I find a new one...

Sophie (my LX3) has been doing great and has had no
problems working in (a little ) extreme conditions
of -10degrees^^

I will still post when I have the time to take my computer
to my school and use their internet^^

and in the meantime I will practice my art and photography
with even more determination and ... Happiness?

bye bye for a short time^^

For a day^^

The Canon G9 was great^^ however...
It didn't really suit me. I had a hard time
using the camera because it was so slow
compared to my Sophie(LX3)

too bad ...

In the end the Canon G9 gave me a farewell present^^
He will be paying my rent and utilities bill for the
month of December as my landlord and landlady have
seemed to fell in love with him^^

Now I will not have to bother learning a
new camera. Sophie's (LX3) multi exposure feature
is very intriguing and I have been making
more photos to master it^^
more LX3 paintings in the future^^

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA today I received a present from
the newspaper^^ A new Camera!!! YAY!! it's a Canon G9^^
I can't wait to try it out tomorrow!!!

They told me that they like my photos but they said I
could use a longer zoom and a backup camera in case
something happened to mine when I am on assignment^^

I am so happy!!! they told me I am funny because I use
compacts and not DSLRs

Hahahaha my Sophie(LX3) isn't lonely anymore^^

Wheeeeee I am so happy I feel like I'm flying^^

It was my birthday yesterday^^

I went outside of Seoul to take
pictures for a local magazine^^

taking pictures is really so much
fun and getting a part time job as
a photographer for a journalist is
very exciting^^

up until now I have taken my "beloved"
LX3 which I have named "Sophie" to
4 assignments and had my pictures
published in local magazines and
newspapers^^

OH! while working yesterday I stumbled
upon a lovely feature on my camera^^

The LX3 has a mode wherein you are able
to take multiple exposures of up to 3
shots in 1 frame^^ (wow I'm really starting
to sound like a photographer!)

it can make some very interesting pictures^^
and I found it particularly effective
for making old style traditional looking
pictures that are almost like a painting^^

I guess the feature was a surprise present to
me from "Sophie"^^

I will continue to learn this feature to make
more ... pictures/paintings^^

I have been playing around with my borrowed LX3
for a while now^^ and I am really having a fun time with
it^^

Black and white is really interesting with it!
Macro shots too!
I wish it had a sepia color modeㅠㅠ

Fall is here and the weather has finally turned cool^^
I look forward to winter vacation^^

No new drawingsㅠㅠ
