	Like OMG I like totally died in a protest and stuff. I also got to see Cindy sheehan speak, which was as unimpressive as I thought it would be. But don't worry, just because the administration hasn't listened to the public or its own generals obviously means it will listen to crazy liberal protesters. I love the bay area but some people here are as disconnected as the religious nutjobs.

'Digital Enhancement' and selling prints

Very interesting blog entry, Ari. This should totally be an article (hint, hint).

The question of what constitutes a photomanip is hotly contested at deviantART. Darkroom modifications can make a lot more changes to the "original picture" than a photoshop filter, after all, and yet, some artists are incensed that their photography pieces might be moved to the photomanip gallery when no digital alterations were made.

	Like OMG I like totally died in a protest and stuff. Lame. See, now, protest styles really need to move on from the cliches of the 60s. The World Bank protests had some new era brio to them, but I suppose it's a lot easier to roll over and play dead than to actually put yourself at risk of death and injury.

	Bungie to be Free Whew! I thought I was going to have to jump off a bridge or something.

	Bungie to be Free Cool. The roomie and I played Halo I and II, and if he decides to get an X-Box when he gets back from Europe we'll be playing Halo III.

	Public places It's like the runners in Ann Arbor's "Nude Mile" who complain about people taking their pictures. Duh!

	Last semester stuff Cool pictures, Ari.

	Public places I'm going to be mean, but that's the mantra of the drama queen. By complaining, she's constantly drawing the group's attention to her. I know this because I do the same thing sometimes. It's a bad habit that's hard to break.

	Last semester stuff What a lovely, colorful, harmonious page. You have a real knack for pattern, Ari. Even the color studies and the pictorials have a strong sense of it. I think my favorite may be the close-up of the knifed green apple, but if you asked me tomorrow I'd probably pick something else. Great stuff. :thumbup1:

Intro

A non-battery operated camera is so on my yuletide wishlist. Once again today I was in a position to take some great pics (at the beantown jazz festival--I was less than 10 feet away from vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson) and the dumb batteries in the digital camera pooped out.

I never realized you were a photography major either. Good luck with your edumacation, and soak up lots of that mild california weather for us New Englanders lol

	Intro I didn't know you were a photographer, Ari. That's great. Add me to the chorus of people clamoring to see your work.

Intro

Thanks. Sure I'll post some of my work.

Curses, I'm thinking advertising photography to make money, where I might have some creative play but not the stress (or same kind of stress) as say wedding photography. I have a Canon Rebel XTi as my digital and my old Canon RebelG as my film. Although I would like to get a nice old manual film camera, since my digital is the jack of all trades a film camera that doesn't crap out when the battery dies would be nice.

	Intro Slimshady speaks the truth! I'd love to see some of your work as well. What are you hoping to do once you graduate? What camera do you have?

	Intro Hey, good luck with that (the school thingy, not the blogging thingy). Make sure to post some of your work, I bet I'm not the only one would like to see it!
