Comments
A friend of mine came over to get a head-shot today. This was actually my first time taking a professional portrait for someone (not that I've ever done it for myself either). Anyway, it went rather smoothly. I used my dark curtains as a backdrop and bounced my flash off the white ceiling. I wish I had a 50mm prime lens but my 35mm served well too.

Hope he likes it.

Window frames do a great job at... well... framing a shot. I remember taking a photo some time ago from inside a building and it turned our really well. I decided to try something similar today. This photo was taken from my apartment and shows our view towards the south.

We still had a lot of snow today and I took this photo on the way back from the office. Unfortunately, it turned out pretty soft but I was determined to process it and post it as my shot of the day anyway (of course, my determination was partly due to the fact that I didn't have an alternative). I increased the contrast and saturation to get this "retro" effect.
