I took a short course in photography at Southbank Institute of Technology over the past 4 weeks and one of the things my teacher mentioned was image size...  I'd never really given much thought to how my shots looked to other people but hearing about the monitors the other budding photographers used in my class made me stop and think. I have a 20" widescreen LCD monitor and I run it at 1680x1050 (I don't wear glasses yet!).  The majority of people in my class had 15" - 19" square screens and ran at 1024 or less.  Needless to say, I was shocked and I think a lightbulb appeared over my head. So I changed my monitor to 1280x768 and had a flick

40D sweetness

Well...  I just went out this arvo and bought a Canon 40D body :D  I've only had my 400D since last september but I really wanted something more.  The 400D is such an awesome camera but I think for me, it was time to upgrade :D  And woah my gosh what an upgrade.  The specs are very very similar between the 2 cameras but I just got the new one all set up and took a few quick shots on some different settings and you can just tell it's a much better built camera.  It feels so sturdy and ... eeeeeee I love it already :D  I'm gonna have to do some wrist weights or something though because it's a bit bigger and heavier than the 400D! Soo.....  any

Greetings from Brazil, thanks alot for the fav and compliments, coming from such artist like you I feel really honored. Best! Andre :)
HOW'S IT GOING? :hug: What's new Shell?
Hey Erika! Nothing much is new, just realised my dA membership ran out and although I don't use this anymore it just seemed sad, lol. So I paid for another year :D I hope to start using it again though :)

What have you been up to??
Hey! You should use it again! Glad you got the new membership!!!

I've finally finished my degree! Yay! About frickin' time. And I got accepted to my masters. Have started it but will defer for a year at least as I am moving to Germany for a while. I leave in April. I am so excited!! I love me some adventure!

:eager:

What have you been up to? :hug:
haha, I'll probably just use it again until uni my next uni subject starts but that's okay!

Congratulations! Good idea deferring for a year - you deserve a break! And moving to Germany sounds like a terrific move - so jealous :D I hope to see heaps of pictures on here!

I haven't been up to much, just uni and work - that keeps me out of trouble! :) Hope to get over to Thailand at some point this year though, so looking forward to that :) ... though I'd probably prefer to go to Germany! At least I can kind of speak the language, haha. If I win lotto, I'll see you over there! :D
