A buttefly shot at Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh. Black & white channel conversion with sepia toning in photoshop.It’s been a while since my last update. Things have been ok lately. Finished off the last of the TEFL requirements and the deep research and job hunting has started. It’s a bit overwhelming and mind numbing pouring over job listings, resume and cover letter sites, many blogs about teaching in Korea, and everything else in between. But it’s getting done, I think.
Yeah, I’m taking moon pics again. This was shot sometime over the last week.I’ve finally had some time to process some images I took recently. I’m posting some new images on the site tonight and a few here as well. There are so many images that I take that never make it out of the hard disk because I just don’t have the time to process them. It bums me out sometimes. Here are some recent images I shot at Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh while visiting my parents. They took Nancy and I there to see this glass show. It was fun trying to photograph things. I shot most of these with the 12-24mm wide lens.
To break up some of the stress of job searching and making all these computer research centered preparations we’ve been going swimming quite a bit. We’ve been crashing Hwan Joon and Sandy’s community pool with some borrowed passes. It’s been such a nice experience with the hot weather. I’ve been practicing breath holding and have managed to swim across the pool twice underwater. I’m getting to the point where I know I can start going for the third time, but I’m not quite there yet. I took this picture of Sandy a long while ago, but wanted to put it up for this pool post anyway. I haven’t managed to get a photo of Hwan Joon yet. He’s kinda like the yeti.
