happy birthday to Panda
ABOVE堺町, originally uploaded by nighstar.
i have a new camera. his/her (i have yet to decide) name is Panda. he/she is an Olympus E-P2 dressed in a white leatherette and black case from Aki Asahi. i <3 him/her.
i took Panda with me everywhere today, mostly just playing around with the 8 "art filters" that are included in the camera. as always, i strive to refrain from editing my photos on my computer. the 1st photo was taken using the "Diorama" art filter. :) no, i am not cheating. :P
my other favorite pic of the day is "parallel's laundry". don't ask me why it's my favorite because i don't know. ^^;
i've made a gallery site to store/show my favorite photos taken with Panda (thus the text in the photos), but i will also be uploading other photos to Flickr.
also, i uploaded a short video to Youtube showing sample videos of the art filters: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MSfx4J6_CM
