Photography

As promised, here’s a photo. Now, I did neglect to mention that Steph was of Eskimo descent. But, once I got past the fish breath and the sight of her eating raw meat, it’s hawt knowing that my girlfriend can defend me from giant seals. Plus, she looks spicy in her designer parka which, incidentally, is made with faux fur and synthetic orca hide.

*rolls eyes*

Actually, this photo’s plastered on both of my monitors at work, and is actually the only photo that exists in my screensaver’s slideshow. It was taken in very early winter and, like a pro, I wasn’t even looking through my viewfinder. Call it luck, or prodigious skill — it turned out well and I was holding the camera.

Furthermore, the majority of people who’ve seen this photo assumed that I simply admired the model and scanned it from some magazine (which is only half true). Still, I’m not sure if that’s more of a compliment to me as the photographer, or Steph as the model… I’ll give it to Steph though, but only because that whole “luck” thing is still up for debate.

Oh, and to the discerning few who noticed the subtle snowflake watermarks: those are actually much more prominent in the wallpaper version of the image. I toned it down because I thought it was a bit too “processed” for the site. Still, I couldn’t bear to completely remove them.

Enjoy. There’re more to come, eventually.

    Nice lucky shot — Err, I mean, that’s a very professional looking portrait you have there. winking

    Is it just me, the cough medicine, or are you seeing strange patterns in the barrage of capital A’s above too?

    I am also seeing patterns, yes. It’s like one of those stereogram things… I think I just see a larger letter “A”?

    I forget what I was seeing before, but right now I swear I can see a monkey’s face.

    Oh, and I didn’t receive the subscription email!

    Wow, did you just say I have a monkey face?

  7. 7 Aaron on Tue, Jan 29th 2008 2:04 pm

    Heh. Reading it quickly, it kind of looks that way, eh?

    But yeah, I just see all kinds of trippy lines.

    How’re we still going on about this?!

    No, I was hallucinating a monkey’s face in your comment! You look more like an Eskimo who misplaced your gloves.

    I don’t know Aaron; I’ve been bored at work lately. sticking out tongue

    I look like a HOT Eskimo who has lost her gloves…(You forgot the “hot” part) winking

Feel free to leave some kind of feedback or pose a question. Most links will be parsed on their own, so you can avoid writing <a> tags. I’ve even taken measures to ensure that long links don’t fubar the page layout. Also, you can get fancy with Markdown syntax if you want.

The e-mail address is required to ID you. I’ll keep it secret. I pinky promise.
