Went looking for a good pic again last night and found this interesting spot.

For the next two, I need an opinion. The first pic had a six second exposure, so less light entails less detail, but the fisherdude stays still.

In the second pic I gave it a ten second exposure, so there's more detail but some movement in the fisherdude's rod (*snigger*).

Actually I have a teenage daughter who is online alot, a teenage son who is on some, and so time to sit and post is limited. I usually spend my time writing my stories on Wordperfect or something offline and save my interneting for here at work.

Ok, then I can understand why it is difficult for you to get onto the Moot as often as you would want to.

Perhaps you could badger your kids a little for some quality nettime on the home computor.

*comes in with a thermos of defiant tea*
Lotesse, I like metaphorical food!

*finishes thermos and pours more*

***RÃan*** · 10-08-2005, 12:57 PM

Tough call, Andruil - I slightly prefer the colors in the latter pic, but can't decide if the blurred rod is distracting or interesting. The former has an interesting line-up of rod and lighter cloud.

***RÃan*** · 10-08-2005, 12:58 PM

*prepares Lotesse's favorite drink and munchies at a special table*

Waiting for you, Lotesse!

trolls' bane · 10-08-2005, 01:05 PM

Yep! Me too!
Rian, I think she'll be on at about 11 or 12...I guarantee she'll come on at least once in that time.

trolls' bane · 10-08-2005, 01:06 PM

Is it just me, or is Sister Golden Hair always away from her AIM? Must just be me...Always on, always away...

Oh, BY the way...you will never guess who showed up at my window a few minutes ago...

The last sane person · 10-08-2005, 01:40 PM

.....Sister Golden Hair?

Well, I wonder exactly when our Lotesse will be back...*prepares the bar and consoles Dragazzo*

trolls' bane · 10-08-2005, 02:05 PM

It's 11 and still no Lotesse. I guess my bet might be lost after all!

I have it solved. I just used Photoshop to alter the highlights and shadows of the 6-sec pic, so there is the stillness of the first with the detail of the second. Go Photoshop!

trolls' bane · 10-08-2005, 03:28 PM

Sounds cool! I use Photoshop in my digital art class. I love how you can add lens flare.

Lotesse · 10-08-2005, 05:13 PM

Well, I got released from jail - mootjail is no fun, they put you in solitary and you can hear and see everything, but they can't hear or see you. Plus, you don't even get to EAT or DRINK anything; I - AM - STARVED!! Where's Dragazzo - oh, there you are sweetheart! Come here, come to mama - *Dragazzo climbs up into Lotesse's lap, and curls up* Thanx 4 taking care of him for me while I was detained, Shah!

So - let's see, I'm serving a HUGE buffet-style lunch, and the bar's open so help yourselves. I've gotta go finish doing some more house-moving, so I can't really stick around, plus I need to get a bath and CHANGE, solitary confinement does a number on a body.

me9996 · 10-08-2005, 06:10 PM

Just asking, what were you in for?

Lotesse · 10-08-2005, 06:22 PM

Check out the 'Anti-Relient K' thread, that's where I got banned. I wasn't swearing or anything, just tempting fate by continuing to run my mouth there, but I will go to the grave calling that pissant stupid group "Stinky Beetle Poo" because that is my opinion, like it or not!

Nice 2 see you around again, BTW, me9996!

Where is that?
I love the orange line along the horizon in the first one.
I've been fiddling with photoshop for my new avatar this morning.

Anduril lives in one of this planet's most naturally beautiful parts, in South Africa. He has limitless material for gorgeous pix, and man, are they GORgeous, too.

What!? You got banned? Well, it just goes to show you that you are supposed to make friends, no enemies, in high places.

Wow! I forgot they had temporary banning. *hopes that self will never be bad enough to get that* Na...never.

Exactly! I know by experience that not all the forces of the Dark, Light, Neutral, and Martian sides combined could even take down a single moderator.

I need some tea. I think I'm coming down with a cold. I can't seem to clear the itch out of my throat.
