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!!

Those look wonderful!! Is a tarn like a meandering river? That picture is particularly impressive. And your old tree looks like the whomping willow!

Welcome to the club!!

[iristigerlily.livejournal.com]

A tarn is a mountain lake-ish thing. It looks georgous up there :) I picked the tree patricularly because it looks lke the whomping willow XD

Glad to be here =)

They're all lovely! Was the one of the truck infront of the buildings France? I took one look at it and went, "Woah, France!" Thet truck's logo was all in French, so I'm assuming you were there...?

And the photo of the cat is a great shot! *loves*

Welcome to the club!!

P.S. I got your entry- accepted! ^_^b

[darkmoore.livejournal.com]

Yes, all of those photos are France, actually. I took them on a company trip. We were visiting the company I work for... it's a French company and just has a "daughter" here in Germany.

That cat is Unique. We have two cats, Shadow is black. I have dozens of cute pics of them... here, let me get some for you...

And those are from Carcassonne. Lovley place btw: And the sky really was THAT blue!

Oh and thanks for accepting my entry.

Talk to you soon!

Mel

[ladykuroda.livejournal.com]

I love the photos of your cats. In the first one, Unique looks like she's just having fun. In the third one, I could see, "I'm on UR computerz, reading your fictionz..." on it. XD And Shadow looks like he was taken completely by surprise! *L*

Your photos of Carcassonne are breathtaking! And the sky!! Wow!! *loves* What a great old castle. ^^

[ladykuroda.livejournal.com]

Oh, and no problem for accepting your entry. I was more than happy to do so! ^_^

[darkmoore.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Yeah, Unique just LOVES to watch me work or read, sometimes she sists on my lap and paws the keyboard to "help" me type. As for Shadow...it's hard to take photos of her becasue she is all black and most of the time she is just one huge balck spot on the photo...

Carcassonne was amazing. This a whole medival city and it was really incredible. I have dozens of photos from taht trip and if you like I'll show them to you.

All of the photos I took on that trip turned out surprisingly bood. I've rately seen a sky so blue as it was during those few days in France. I LOVED it.

3. Why you would like to join. Art is taking what is around you or inside you and reproducing it. I am an artist. I sketch, I paint (watercolor, acrylic, oil), and I adore chalk pastels. Those are my traditional pursuits, in the past few years however, I have found that I enjoy taking photographs just as much. Shutterbug sounds like a nice place to have fun with other people interesting in the same things that I am.

Wowww... pretty! ^_^b I especially like the apple one. It would make a great icon!

I tried my hand at watercolour a few years ago, but didn't do so well. I prefer pencilcrayon myself. (:
