busy with nothing....

So basically I have come to realize I get so busy with so much to do, pictures for class, pictures for the workshop I spent money to take, cleaning and rearranging my room, and trying to figure out how to start my website. I haven't taken or posted ONE photo for the Picture Winter and the class is 22 days in...I am keeping up with my classwork but everything is stuck in a rut.... :/ I think I should catch up on my picture winter tomorrow. More posts to come :)

Catching up with things

So I haven't taken one single picture yet for my Picture Winter workshop so I'm kind of upset with my self because of my lack of motivation to take every picture so far. I did start my Photography class though online (Art Institute) I got Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3.3 for this course the other day :) I am so happy so I have been playing around with it for a little bit. I was looking up videos about tutorials for doing different things and I found one that teaches you how to make vintage type photos. I played around with a picture I took of Anthony and I in Pairs with my remote and here is the original and then the edited:

Back in the states

So I made it back home to the states last night. I was awake for a good 28 hours, we spun in a complete circle and lost control of the car after hitting black ice on the Autobahn doing 130kph ... I am going to my doctor today to get a few X-Rays done just to make sure I didn't hurt anything whenever I tensed up and gripped the door handle (worst thing to do ever in an accident and I knew it when I was doing it). Being overseas is great to visit but 2 months is a VERY long time to be gone. I am eagerly awaiting Anthony's arrival back home so he can enjoy the states as much as I am. I have tons of pictures to put up from Paris and from what I took in Germany period so I will do that here in the next few days. I am also in the works of organizing my photo folder. I have been "renaming" all my photos in numerical order and I am at number 8567 and I have 24 more folders to go through.... (I took about 841 pictures in Paris alone so the numbers are about to reach above 12,000 photos I bet.... that is RIDICULOUS! I also have another computer that crashed that I need to get the photos off of that hard drive. I have about 6000 probably on there just guessing... Man do I take a LOT of pictures or what?!?!? Time to get up and get ready for the doctors. I get to see my nephews today!! I'm super excited about that!!! Pictures will be put up soon! :)
