Sketchcrawl…

hmm…has been quite a good week…

i went back to cooking at home…cleaned my apartment…

noticed that the sensor on the camera has become quite dusty…you will see the dust one quite a few frames in this update…will clean it today…

did you know…at one point years ago…i was close to joining a catering college to become a cook!!!…i love food…good food…but i ended up a programmer and now a lvl designer…crazy…

crazy how the smallest impulse changes your entire life…and come to think of it…as kids everyone wanted to be an engineer or doctor…naive…

humor is not quite humorous if one does not get it…its fun though when you meet people with the same sense of humor…you can give each other shit and its all cool…

i say this because my last update managed to offend someone…even though it was not meant to…different people with different minds…which invariably think differently…1+1 can be 2 or 11…

nuf text…lets move on to the pics

17 may 2008

…is the Norwegian day.

The day when all the norwegians dress up and look fancy.

This year though, we also had rain and snow.

Luckily for me…i was off to Oysteins/Thones house for breakfast. What was supposed to be a breakfast went on till 12am in the night…good times.

I had bought a roll of Delta 3200 some time back…and seeing the weather outside…i thought it was good time to use it. But the OM1 and OM2 dont like 3200…they have a limit of 1600…so me being smart…though i could load the OM2 with the 3200 set it to 1600 and set the Exposure Compensation to -1. But no…once u set the ASA to 1600…you cannot turn the EC dial.

BUT I AM SUPER SMART…not really…

I used the OM1 and manually underexposed all the frames by 1 stop…hardcore huh. Not really…i want the Nikon FM.

Anyways…the adventure does not end there…goto to the bustop and took few frames…for some reason the metering seemed strange…but i ignored it…got on the bus and saw that i had not turned on the camera. I am used to the 30d which i never turned off.

Rest of the day was standard…eating drinking taking pictures meeting people.

Ok there was one more issue…for some strange reason…the horizon on quite a few frames are zoinked…no its not the booz…if u see the previous post…i tend to shoot better when intoxicated.
