Poem

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Old age should burn and rave at close of day

Rage Rage aginst the dying of the light

Though wise me at their end know dark is right

Because there words have forked no lightning they

Do not go gentle into that good night

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

Frail deeds might have might dance into the green bay

Rage Rage against the dying of the light

Grave men, near death, who see blinding sight

Blind eyes could blaze like metors and be gay

Rage rage against the light

And you my father there on sad height

Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray

Do not go gentle into that good night

Rage rage against the dying of the light

Nothing is impossible

It is just another obsticle

Just a hiccup in life

Blocking the path that is right

Step back and see it clearer

There are other ways if you get nearer

See it from a different view

and the answer will come to you

photo critique

This picture is very beautiful. I love the entire scene, with the beach front, the dark sky and the rainbow. You can tell that the photographer has a very great eye. The photographer seemed to put alot of effort in the picture. I mean how else do you find something that seems to be coming right out of a post card!
I do have a couple problems with it. It is very pixilated, I mean, if only he would have used a focus. Also the picture is not photoshoped, I mean we have the technology, and because of this you think he might have brightened it up, or maybe even darkened it. Make the rainbow brighter, SOMETHING with photoshop.
Over all I think this is a very beautiful picture, the person who took this picture did an excellent job, and I know that if this person would have only used photoshop it would have been GREAT!

This Next picture is without a doubt the best picture, it is so poetic. and dangerous, I feel so nervous for the soldier. I also feel pitty for the Afganes behind him. This picture captures my emotions and toiles with them. You wonder what was going through there minds and what was going on through his.

Once again I do find one flaw, the fact that the picture is not edited at all. I feel that It would increase the emotions of the viewers if you could see the unblured Afganes. It would look fantastic if they darkened the sky.

I feel that this picture is top notch.

What I would have done to the first picture.

The article I read was ICE SHOTS, for winter's best nature close-ups, try a shore thing. It mainly talks about the camera hey used, a SD400 cannon power shot. It was also about how he bubles themselves should form a pleasing pattern. and how the over all ice can be really obscure. and how the crystal formations can mask the subject very well and that you should pore warm water over the ice before taking a picture. The shots were taken from a 45-degree angle to the ice's surface. This plays up the subjects shape and penetrates the ice.

To be totaly honest I do not know alot about photography. I know the basics. How to turn it on, take a picture and download it to a computer.
I guess that the reason why I went into this class. I want to know more about it, I want to know pleasing angles to shoot items. I want to know how to shoot a camera in a battle zone, or of a wild animal. I want to know how to take a basic picture and turn it into pure perfection... I want to know about how to use the other options on the camera that make it even more beautiful or complicated.
So there you have it, I do not know alot about photography, but I want to know everything there is to know about the modern camera.
