My GPS Camera Phone

At first glance, it may look like nothing, but loosen up a bit and look closer. I’d have put crosshairs in this image, but that would have given away the hidden animal’s identity. Have fun!

You’re thinking, “What’s with the plant? I thought it was a day at the museum?”

The family and I went for a trip to the Samuel P. Harn museum of art located on the University of Florida campus for a few hours of browsing and some interactive Japanese ink drawing. the courtyard in the middle of the museum provided some great shots, more of which you will see in upcoming days. Tomorrow is the last day of Sepia Week and I couldn’t be happier. This camera phone sepia filter is terrible.

I had the opportunity to do some slacking traveling in Europe while in college, so I took it. Two months of nothing but a lot of walking, no money and pasta dinners (because pasta was the cheapest meal). It was a memorable experience to say the least.

This little three-dimensional picture serves as a good reminder of those days. And best of all, I can always re-visit Paris, knowing it only cost 99 cents. Way cheaper than the first time around.

OK, bear with me on the flood of posts to catch up with the theme this week.

Bathroom tiles. What’s so interesting about this is that the tiles are pretty much this color. So the sepia effect didn’t really change all that much. Weird, but it’s a building from the late 1970s, also known as the Brown Era.

Moving on from Grayscale Week, I now present to you the first entry of Sepia Week! Given the nature of the on-board camera effect, I will not be doing anything with this week’s photos except for some cropping and resizing. Working with the sepia tones in Photoshop would render the concept of the theme week invalid, so the sepia tones you’re seeing are camera-generated.

This here photo is of an old church building across from Roper Park, site of the W. Haisley Lynch memorial I previously blogged about. The sun was setting behind the building, so I had to adjust the exposure to darken it, but apparently it wasn’t enough. Still, I like the shot. Notice the little bird up there on the top wire.
