(^_^) well, not really. she let borrow both of them. i&#8217;ve been taking photos for the projects that the regular students are supposed to do. i haven&#8217;t been able to take as many as i&#8217;m supposed to, but i think they&#8217;re not turning out horribly. so i thought i&#8217;d upload some of them. they&#8217;re all taken with a canon powershot a75 or something, a little 3~4 megapixel camera that first came out in 2004 and used to belong to my brother. (^_^) for all it&#8217;s lack of flashy stats, the little thing is a trooper. and it&#8217;s not the stats that make a good picture, right? &#8230; right? (^_^)  anyhow, the first project is supposed to be about color and shape. we were supposed to take five pictures, so here they are:  <a class='serendipity_image_link' href='\/uploads\/fotoclass-color1of5.jpg'><!-- s9ymdb:216 --><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"serendipity_image_center\" width=\"83\" height=\"110\" style=\"border: 0px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px;\" src=\"\/uploads\/fotoclass-color1of5.serendipityThumb.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>  taken one beautiful sunset on my back porch. well, my only porch, but it is in the back.
