Train sketches
Having fun in NYC miss you all et cetera et cetera
ok everyone
I probably won’t be around until sunday afternoon/night because I’m leaving for new york in a couple hours
so
goodbye for now !
@SpaceX: First picture of #Dragon in the ocean as it awaits recovery.
it sort of looks like the head of a really big metal giant
I mean if you look at it the right way it has a sort of smiley face thing going on

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhaajhgakhjf my camera works
(well I knew the mechanical part of it was working but this is the first real image it has produced)
I mean it’s just some blurry tape on the wall but ah
I am so happy
unfortunately this confirms that the problem is that I am not physically fast enough to do the shutter by hand- the entire camera has to be situated in a dark room and the lights of the room have to be flashed on and off again really fast to capture an image
shoot
oh well
at least it works that way and now I can do portraits as long as my models are willing to sit in the back of a closet for a while
haha
why am I still awake?
what is even the deal with things that are sensitive to light
I mean I appreciate their existence! I love a lot of things that they make possible!
like photography!
but what
how
what
they just touch the light and things happen
???
I do not understand
Conclusion:
In this lab we discovered that the inverse square model relates to the intensity of light and distance from a light source. This was not without some difficulty, however. The ambient light in the room was difficult to work with, and prevented obtaining as many data points as would have been possible in a completely dark room. We also accidentally melted a bit of plastic on our light meter by touching it to the lightbulb (sorry about that. It still works fine though). We did not realize that it was actually going to melt. Investing in more robust tools or cooler lightbulbs would be a huge improvement to this activity. This lab made me wonder how the light meter works. I read once that the human eye (on a person with perfect vision) can detect the presence of a candle from fifty miles away when everything else is completely dark and there’s nothing in the way and the air isn’t humid or anything. How did people even test that? Could a light meter detect that? Is that even a true statement? These are questions that I will probably never know the answer to. Except for ‘How does a light meter work’- I can guess about that. I know of several types of light meters, and one of them is made of a metal that emits an electric current when exposed to light (I have one of these on one of my cameras), but I don’t think that’s what is in these things, because they seem to need a power source to work and also they are digital, so maybe they use a metal that only conducts electricity when exposed to light, and then the computer detects how much electricity is coming through the circuit that the metal completes and from there can determine the intensity of light. I think that must be what happens on my other cameras, because they need batteries to do the light meter. Maybe? I don’t know and now I’m off topic but that was interesting to think about there.
jeeze wow no I need to really stop going off on tangents
Tome of Eldritch Lore: buttbear: WOW ALSOWHEN PEOPLE SAY ‘YOUR TALENT IS WASTED ON _____’ I…
WOW ALSO
WHEN PEOPLE SAY ‘YOUR TALENT IS WASTED ON _____’ I WANT TO PUNCH THEM IN THE FACE I’M SORRY I DO I JUST
WOW now that you all know my opinions on ‘talent’ I hope you realize where I’m coming from when I say I have EARNED the right to draw sparkledogs and ponies if I damn…
Sorry for all the reblogs on this, I’ll delete them in a day or two haha
But yeah, nothing is EVER a waste of time if you enjoyed doing it! I spend like, way too much time on video games when I could be doing something productive, but it’s what makes me happy. I don’t particularly care if others disapprove, as long as it makes me happy and doesn’t negatively affect others it’s really none of their business? And I’d rather look back on my life in sixty years and be glad I did what made ME happy, and not what others ‘approved’ of. It’s your own life and nobody else’s, so don’t let them try to tell you how to live it
don t mind me im just reblogging this because “nothing is ever a waste of time if you enjoyed doing it” made me sort of stare at it and go “….huh”
like…….gosh
gosh wow thats true O____O
this changes everything O________O
ahh there’s so much stuff that is late
whoops
neonspectrum replied to your post: ok so today a friend of mine’s mother was talking…
We all have nasty sides Natalie. I think you’re a genuinely good person.
thanks
on this blog is mostly where my nasty side goes
