Salt Lake City

      I hope you like these pictures...

      I finally finished editing my pictures that I took about 3 weeks ago. I took about 270 pictures one day just while walking around Salt Lake City. I took me about 3 weeks to edit them all. First of all I had to separate them all. After separating I had left only about 70 pictures. And in the process of editing I have left about 60 of them and while editing I also deleted some. Basically what I have been posting in last few weeks is all that's there to look at.
     I wish I had more time on editing... But I also have school and work and friends! All these things demand attention like crazy! But I enjoy my school, like my job and I love my friends :-)

    Ever since I got photoshop I can't immagine going to something else! Same is with Apple products.

With photoshop and an iMac editing pictures is sooo much more fun! I can spend hours on editing and I hardly get tired or bored. I love love love taking pictures and I absolutely adore the process of editing. It's maybe weird but I enjoy it.

    In this post I present to you some of my latest picture that I took while walking around at Temple Square, Salt Lake City, Utah. That place is so good for taking pictures. The day when I was picture hunting I saw lots of photographers who were doing the same. 

    There is something special in finding objects to capture on a camera. And I often get lost in all the things that I find interesting around me. The time that I spend on looking for things and taking pictures of them is very relaxing for me. It's like my own relaxation therapy, no one tells me what to do, where to go or what to shoot. I call it MY TIME. The time that I spend alone with my imagination. I often let it fly and look for beautiful, interesting or simply weird objects. 

    In other words I love photography... 

    I haven't updated my blog for some time now, just because I was busy trying to figure out my new Photoshop CS5 Extended. And may I tell you, it's absolutely amazing. It took me a little time to take all the necessary steps to figure everything right and proceed to editing photos. 

   It was a good few weeks. I have learned a lot and took lots of pictures. Very soon I will give you more updates on what happened and where I was. For now, you can look at these ones and let me know if you like it. And also, please let me know if you can notice the changes in the picture editing quality. It helps me to progress! 

   Have fun and share :-)

   Let me tell you that taking pictures is not as easy as it might look at first. Looking for things to shoot, settings, angles, and other small details make it harder and harder. Photography is not for someone with little patience... Nevertheless, I love it! I enjoy looking for something that not everyone finds interesting or attractive at first; I like playing with settings and choosing the right angle, what can I say, I am a perfectionist. Photography brings me joy. And I hope my pictures bring you something good as well. 

    I think the hardest thing to shoot is random people. It's so hard to just come up to someone and take a picture of them. Not many people would agree to it. I think I understand them, because, who know's where their face is going to end up next? After all, it could be some weird place, strange website or a funky blog, like mine for example. Oh well, I just need more patience I guess. 

   

    I would like to know what you think about this. Would you like your picture taken by some random photographer on a street?
