Hang Created a Motion Picture (No, NOT a Movie... a Photograph)


Note: This photo was taken at the Big Thunder Railroad ride at Disneyland. (Thanks Nina!)

OH BOY! I am obsessed! (I do have a lot of obsessions... I think I have an addictive personality.) Motion pictures are so much fun to shoot. I think I like the blurriness. It makes the picture more interesting.

I learned how to dodge and burn a photo today. My goodness, who knew how complicated it was to create a pretty photo? It's so complicated, and I think I really need to learn patience. (That's why Photoshop is the greatest thing ever invented besides the camera itself. It can do everything you want it to in a few clicks. BRILLIANCE!)

I only wish my class was taught using digital cameras. This film thing drives me nuts. I don't like taking an hour just to develop my negatives. It's even worse when you decide you don't like anything you took on that roll. SIGH. That's a lot of effort for a bad roll. WHERE'S THE DELETE BUTTON? I guess I am a big fan of instant gratification. That's why I love digital cameras (even though the film ones get better pictures). I like to see the picture right after I take it, and be able to delete it if I hate it. 

P.S. Am I talking too much about photography? Sorry, I give you permission to ignore all future post about photography if you decide it's boring. It just makes me gleeful every time I talk about it, so I do. A bit too often, so it seems.

P.P.S. I'm also sorry this blog seems like it's more about me than Frances. I'm addicted to blogging. I do realize I am hogging this blog...
