Learn how to use my SNAZZY new camera

Everytime I try to take a pictures of clouds and traffic I end up taking pictures of sunsets. This was taken on my way to the bookstore. The bookstore is at the bottom of the hill I’m standing on top. The view was better up there.

I’m trying to learn how to hold the camera so all the colors come in. The sky was actually full of pinks, oranges an purple.

This photography stuff is fun. Now I see why people try to take a picure everyday. It forces you to stop and look for beauty around you. Helps you stay in a positve frame of mind.

I have a idea of how to load pictures into the computer and post them. Now it’s on to figuring out Flicker.

I’m going to bed. As you all may or may not know, my new job is on the nightshift. So, you know.

Since the name of my blog is cloudsandtraffic I need to get some pictures of clouds and traffic. Lately, the days have been clear and the traffic has been light. I’ve tried waiting for a bunch of cars to drive by and making it look like there’s traffic but that hasn’t worked. I can’t get a good focus on the sky and the ground at the same time. I’m experimenting with different camera angles.

Here’s another Beach picture.

This is what I’ve figured out.

1. I’ve made a collection of favorties on the Kodak program.

2. I right click once on one of the favorites.

3. Then I highlight and double left click on open in explorer

4. Then I right click once and hightlight open with which leads to more choices to be highlighted.

5. So I choose Internet Explorer

6. Then I right click save picture as which takes me to My Pictures

Is this right? Is there a better way?
Any way here are the results.

I know, I programmed the date wrong in the camera.

[Taking deep cleansing breaths and repeating over and over] I am calm. I have no desire to take a hammer and smash the computer and the camera into a million little pieces. I can figure this out. [inhale…exhale] I am calm.

[smiling] I took some pretty pictures of the beach near my home. I’ve got the pictures in the computer. I’m trying to transfer them from the Kodak program to Picasa. I’m not having any luck. How do I get them out of the Kodak program?
How can I post them?

He put the memory card in and set the date and stuff. Now I just got to figure out how to get the pictures inside the computer, make a cd, use flicker…
