Give yourself a goal - carry a camera with you all the time or set asideAlternately, a project. I've decided I want to document the run up to my friends' wedding and turn it into a book for them. (not the wedding photographer, thank god, since I'm the officiant."

Ahem - or set aside x amount of time per week to shoot. Visualize what you want to do and your end-goal - online display vs prints etc.

You're not stupid!

are you attempting to upload to flickr, or show an image from flickr here?
sooo many questions.

I do like that shot, it looks like the kid's holding a camera, but it's the back of a car with a spare.gbx does get out there and captures some amazing scenes. you only have to look at his wdyll's.

and a goofy iPhone cam+toy app of some kind (I think "Tilt-Shift Gen"?). I wish I'd taken multiple pictures so that the guys weren't standing up and blocking home plateI wasn't big on the toy apps to start with, but I've come to really like Instagram - the only downside is that it saves the image to a ~600x600 square that can't be printed much larger than 3x3 and look good. Would love for them to update the app and save at native resolution (cropped to a square of course).http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4099/5604987846_83923192e0_b.jpgThe Ballpark in Arlington, third game of the season, non-Instagram by celluloidpropaganda, on Flickr

For that one, I desaturated, but left the "don't saturate skin tones" button checked in iPhoto, cuz I liked the effect.

Took an Adderall after 8pm. Bad plan.
http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5227/5672182964_6796f73397_b.jpgRiver #728 by celluloidpropaganda, on Flickr
I've taken to putting my camera on a high speed framerate and the setting where the camera uses all 51 focus points to pick focus for me when I play with River. This time the autofocus picked her saliva at the bottom of the frame (best if viewed large-ish) as the point to focus on, which seems to be entirely too appropriate.
I didn't think much of the photos on took on Alcatraz at the time (storm rolling in, everything was dull and dark) but it's looking better in B&W. Did this one in the regular 35mm 2x3 format, then decided to crop it to 8x10 - I think I like the 8x10 better since the sky lacks character.

I think you're right - try as I might, I couldn't do anything with the uppermost sky (someday I'll learn to dodge and burn as effectively in LR/PS/SEP as in a darkroom, but it doesn't appear to be coming soon).
I'm going to start tagging some photos to the ILXOR and ILP group.
