A Photo a Day: Time is ticking, ta-time is ticking ticking.

I've decided to try and put up a photo everyday. Don't know if i can, but if i do...then by the time my exams come i'll have 56 photos. Maybe i can commemorate them into a sort of collection. I could call it: The 56 days before A's. Hmm. Anyway this one's called "Time is ticking" after some lyrics in found in one of my favourite korean songs: One by Epik High. Can check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNnkbwFo9hU Making of the photo: Basically i got it up on my tripod and left it on at shutter speed of 4 seconds. I was using a 50mm and aperture was automatically set to f/8 according to the shutter speed priority settings of the cam. I use a Canon 400d which i purchased just last year. But the rate of technological advancement is so rapid that many of canon's consumers have caught up with my entry level dslr. But owell, i like having many options to play around with. (Although i daresay the consumers have as many options too, haha.) Editing: I just purchased Adobe CS4 Web Premium. Im not a pro, but i can manage my way through Photoshop. Im still pretty green to the other applications though like bridge, flash, fireworks etc. Though they look like awesome fun. I will definitely learn how to use them once my exams are over. Anyway i just converted it to black and white and adjusted the hues a little like a little less red and a bit more yellow. Although it's black and white, these adjustments affect brightness and detail too. I also increased the contrast so the picture would pop a little and I also used curves to do minor adjustments in the slightly darker areas. Yup, i really hope to continue this a photo a day mini project of mine:)
