Camera works great but I'm still ugly in my pictures.
I love the quality of pictures it takes. I actually got a memory card for it at Radio Shack here in town. I never thought about going there because.... honestly... I went looking for the store in the mall several months ago, and I could swear it wasn't there anymore.
Yes, I'm doubting my sanity now.
It was certainly there in the same old place when I went today.
The memory card cost me $70 plus tax, but I'm going to figure in the savings of a $35 tank of gas that I saved by not making it to Jackson.
Of course, you could balance that out with the set of 4 new tires I have to buy this week now, but that really has been coming for a while anyway.
I've been playing around with the programmed modes and figured out that in my dark house and even in my classroom, the "night portrait" setting gives wonderful results. Colors are nicely saturated and everything. Quincy has actually been sitting still for some of the pictures. I think he's feeling a little like a deer in the headlights when the red-eye flashes start going off, and he just kinda stares at the camera. Great pictures, nonetheless.
I did use the self timer and played around with some pictures of myself. The pictures were fine... the person in the pictures looked scary, and then just awful. The first set were from my nose up, and my eyes had this weird Amy Winehouse thing going on. I'm not sure if it was the shadows or swelling in my eyes or what, but I looked horrible. Never could do a decent picture of myself. Maybe it was just that I was too tired to look good by that point.
