I have had a digital camera for about two years, and I just wonder if folks who use photoshop recommend it for beginners or should we just continue using something like Picasa? I am just about out of subjects to shoot...or am I just unimagnative. Actually it's a very exciting medium...how does one know if his photos are really "art". I certainly don't want to be a diletante but I honestly don't know if this is good for me to pursue.

I like:
Twilight & sequels~Stephenie Meyer
Sabriel & sequels ~ Garth Nix
Amulet of Samarkand & sequels ~Jonathan Stroud
In the Hands of the goddess & sequels ~ Tamora Pierce
Eragon & Eldest ~ Christopher Paolini
Maximum Ride & sequels ~ James Patterson

Anything along those lines that are really good?

Does "nothing" and "something" really exist?

I mean, everything is something.
But things can't exist without there opposite,
I mean, there can be no good without evil, no hot without cold, ect.
So if everthings somthing, including nothing. Wouldn't that make "somthing" not have an opposite makeing it so that "something" and "nothing" don't exist?
But if "something" and "nothing" don't exist, what is this text your reading made out of?

no title really....but revised, thank you Chie for the wonderful advice.


Sitting alone with death

Who came a-knocking at my door

Just a bit ago

To bring me a package that enclosed something I had lost

Long, long ago


You see, that red ribbon flew out of my hands

And time became irrelevant once again

Because this is not the first

And last time

Death has visited me to bring me that ribbon

That might have put things,

In…out of place


Death’s yielding fingers tie the ribbon around my neck

then gallantly exits

Ready….set…go…


I untie the ribbon and with a snap of the wrist

Its gone…

I gladly watch the ribbon stream through the sky

So I may feel deaths brief touch once again

I live a few miles from the Getty Center (Los Angeles) and it's free to get in. (http://www.getty.edu). Anyway, during one of my frequent trips, I was walking down their beautiful stairs, and this caught me. I think it would be completely different if it were in black and white.

I used Canon 5D with Canon 50 mm f 2.5 Macro lens. It is an inexpensive lens--very very sharp, but a bid loud (during focus) and it served me well.

I have heard many people compare it to a graduation, but a graduation is really just a ceremony to show a level of proficiency; an arangetram is an actual concert. I want to be able to share the significance of the event with a Western audience who know nothing about Carnatic Music nor its traditions.

we directly experience 4 dimensions - 'up/down', 'in/out', 'side-to-side' and time, right?
how come we only experience the last one as being 'uni-directional'...if i understand it right then mathematically there's no reason for this?(i mean that time only goes one way for us,PLEASE put me right if i ain't!)...

my THOUGHT was that time was the dimension that we experience the other three 'in', as it were and that if we were in a fifth dimension that 'contained' space/time then we would be able to move back and forwards in time as easily as i can move up and down etc. is that right?

if so - how come the dimension at the top of my hierarch is directional? if we could experience a fifth dimension would THAT be one-directional like time is for us now? and - this is the important bit for me - WHYYY!!!????

any elucidating concepts would be appreciated, ty.
