Weekly Photo Projects, Week 1

New Year Sunset
New Sunset
Week One is done and in the books. Since both of my projects were using the same theme (New Year) I was expecting to recycle a photo for both. I kind of did, but not in the way I thought I would. For my +Weekly Photo Project 2013 group I used this 7 shot HDR sunset. You can read about why I chose this shot here (I don't like repeating myself). But I really did like how this shot turned out.

So as far as my shot for my black & white group goes, it should look very familiar. Yes, it was used just three days ago here in color. Since this shot was due Friday I've had some time to look at it some more, and though I generally like the black & white version better than the color version, I don't like the grain I put in it. I should have gone with my first instinct and gone for a clean look. To see what else I had to say about it check out my post here.

Monday, as just about everyone knows, Apple gave a peek at a couple of its updates in the operating systems arena, both mobile and desktop. Most people knew what to expect in the first half, OS X Lion is coming in July. And although I knew what most of the updated stuff was going to be I still found myself wanting to update right then and there. I mean why wouldn't you? It's $30, and I don't have to run down to a store to get it. Actually, I couldn't if I wanted to, but that's another story. But it's the second half of the presentation that was more, interesting, if you're an iOS person.
