Hello, fellow Shutterbugs!

[ladykuroda.livejournal.com]

As of 9/8/2007, this roster is CLOSED!

Please await the role call for Term X to apply. Thanks!

I'm your new club leader for this term! ^_^

It may seem wierd that you're getting a new club member that's never been in the club, but rest assured, I love to take photos (and video) as much as you all do! I actually just accepted a new phone offer because it had a camera with picture & video capabilities- that way, I'm never without a camera! (Now, if only I can figure out how change the settings to higher-quality pictures...)

My first order of buisness is to do a roll call! If you're still alive around or not on hiatus, just give me a shout in the comments section! If you don't reply by July 31st, I'll check your user info for the hiatus badge, and then we'll work from there. (I'm working from the roster that Ivan started up back in January!)

I'm very laid back, and open to suggestions, so feel freel to chat with me if you have any problems or just feel like it!

You can reach me in the following manner:
AIM: rovingravenclaw
email: graphite_quill[at]comcast[dot]net

And also, an example of my photography can be found here, if you'd like to see my photo-nerdiness. I love to be outside, so a lot of my pictures are of nature. However, I also like to take pictures of vintage cars. ^_^b Or- anything else I may find interesting or cool.

My iPhoto/iBook contains (a mere) 912 photos after two years. I'm sure, however, with hosting the Shutterbug Society, I'll add more!

IF YOU HAVE A LINE THROUGH YOUR NAME, YOU NEEED TO RE-APPLY! ALL THOSE NOT HAVING RE-APPLIED AFTER THE END OF THE FIRST CONTEST *(August 14th) WILL BE DELETED FROM THE ROSTER!!

What awesome photos!! :D

Great to have you aboard! *adds you to the roster*

[nyreak.livejournal.com]

*waves hand* I'm still here! Granted, my photo taking is a bit limited when I'm stuck in the house all day (sharing the one car with hubby), but still. I'm here!

[ladykuroda.livejournal.com]

Great! Glad to see you're still here!!

I'll try to keep that in mind with contests. Most of them should be (hopefully) do-able for everyone.

im actually working on figuring out how to use an expensive digital camera ive never used before so i can take picture for my friends wedding at the end of august! :)

[ladykuroda.livejournal.com]

Oooooooh! Nothing says love like a nice, shiny, new camera. :D~ What kind is it? Is it one of the more compact ones? Or is it a larger, professional black one with a telescoping lens? (My friend has a nice Nikon digi-cam like that...)

Welcome back! :D

I will do my best to have frequent challenges- at least one a month with mini (non point earning, mind you) challenges or insipiration in between. (Hopefully, it'll be two activities a month- more if I can handle it.)

3. Why you would like to join? I finally got an electronic camera, which makes it far easier to upload my fotos onto computer and motivates me to take more often photos, because I can take as much fotos as I like without having to bring them to a photographer. So I now have the means to take part. And I want to take part, because I love taking photos. But before my photos actually become good I first have to figure out this incredibly complex camera! O_o

4. At least 4 (no more than 10) examples of YOUR photographs. Because I am using the camera since very few days I only have some photos of my daughter:

You've effectively captured the essence of "kitty" and made me do a doubble take for the butterfly picture! I nearly thought it was real! XD The quill close up and the Niagra Falls bell close up were really neat, too! You've made me think twice so far about the pictures you've shot! Wow! Nice perspective.

What's that stuff in the black pot/bowl?

Ahh... bubble tea. I'm jealous already. Is it really as good as I've heard it is? There's a stand in the mall a little bit away from where I live that sells it. I haven't tried it yet. (I hear the bubbles are edible? I once though they were actually pearls. ^^; )

The picture of your bro made me laugh. And that picture of the Shells? You could make some serious money off of that....
