More Camcorder adventures, musing on photos, Spring!
Since it was good weather, Sennet and I took a 2-3 hour walk down to the river yesterday, dragging the camcorder and tripod (WITH the foot this time!)
Shooting went well. Will be editing today and hope to have video up by tomorrow. We'll see how it goes. I even have a script worked out in my head for the shots I got and ideas of what effects to use in putting it together. <3
Attempted to see how the photo option on the camcorder was but didn't realize you had to be in photo mode to do it. Yeah. Sometimes, I'm not so bright.
And I'm a little miffed at my still camera as it wasn't at all adjusting for brightness so all the stills I took were washed out. ... and I don't know where the exposure wheel on it is. >< I've only had this thing for what, 5 years? So the stills I took are no good. Unless I shop them a bunch, but...
This one's the best of the batch, amusingly enough.
I really need to sort through my photos and update my page of them. Also should play with this and see if it's viable for just the mass amounts of photos I have. Cause heck, KnN has tons of space and all these toys, I may as well use them! :)
But yeah, to give a bit of stats re: my photo collection: The photos folder, minus the ones from dad, is 10.4 gig with 11,385 files in 366 subfolders. Granted, some of those are resizes, but...
Yeah. I need to sort that pile. Big time. :) Maybe I should start doing a photo of the week thing as well, since I'm using this thing again.
The birds have started to come back! I saw a cardinal and a trio of chickadees this morning out my window. With luck later on, video of birdies will be had! <3

I really hate it when cameras futz tings up, but then again, my camera is 300$ and works much better as a doorstop for all the photos I've taken with it. XD;
I hope things go better for you with regards to this; you're obviously trying very hard. :D

Since it's a learning process, it'll always get better. :) It's just one of those "Huh. I've never encountered this problem before. lemme fix that...."
