I wanted more than anything to take a photograph of them and then post it online, but I never did receive the digital camera I was hoping to get for Christmas. It&#8217;s a shame, too. I&#8217;ve wanted to start a little photoblog of sorts, most especially after the coming and going of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.photobloggies.com\" title=\"Ooh... pretty pictures.\">Photobloggies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So this weekend, I finally caved in and got myself a Cantoff PS6 digital crapera. I spent all of Sunday afternoon taking pictures of the world around me and even managed to play with some of the <strike>photos<\/strike> fauxtos in Photoshop&#8230; you know, to make them a little artsy-fartsy in the same way a lot of people make their photos. I also took some fauxtos for the various photo memes I&#8217;ve noticed on the net, just for the heck of it.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, without further ado, here are some of my best shots so far:<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><a href=\"\/log\/images\/2003-candidshot.html\" onclick=\"window.open('\/log\/images\/2003-candidshot.html', 'fauxto', 'width=320,height=220,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\" title=\"candid shot\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"1\" src=\"\/log\/images\/2003-candidshot-thumb.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" hspace=\"5\" vspace=\"5\" alt=\"candid shot\" \/><\/a><a href=\"\/log\/images\/2003-kittyporn.html\" onclick=\"window.open('\/log\/images\/2003-kittyporn.html', 'fauxto', 'width=220,height=320,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\" title=\"kitty porn\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"1\" src=\"\/log\/images\/2003-kittyporn-thumb.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" hspace=\"5\" vspace=\"5\" alt=\"kitty porn\" \/><\/a><a href=\"\/log\/images\/2003-mirrorproject.html\" onclick=\"window.open('\/log\/images\/2003-mirrorproject.html', 'fauxto', 'width=220,height=320,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\" title=\"Mirror Project fauxto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"1\" src=\"\/log\/images\/2003-mirrorproject-thumb.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" hspace=\"5\" vspace=\"5\" alt=\"Mirror Project fauxto\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/log\/images\/2003-candidshot.html\" onclick=\"window.open('\/log\/images\/2003-candidshot.html', 'fauxto', 'width=320,height=220,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\" title=\"candid shot\">Candid Shot<\/a> &#8211; This is a shot of me and a friend at a diner somewhere in my friend&#8217;s neighborhood.
