I have my new camera. It's not as good as I was hoping it to be, but, for the time being, it will do. It's far better than the one I've been using before. This is an Olympus FE-210/X-775, 7mp with macro/super macro, which is much better than my God-knows-what-brand God-knows-what-model, 3mp, no macro. However, I only got it on the 20th, and today is the 21st, so there is a lot of playing about to do :D

I went out to Oldbury Court today to do some land art for my Natural Form final piece in AS Level art. I didn't stick with any of my designs I was going to do, and made it all up as I went along. Unfortunately I only had tacky batteries on hand so the camera died soon after I finished my first piece, but it managed to find enough power to allow me to take a few more photographs, enabling me to make two more pieces of land art before giving up and going home cold, muddy and wet. Autumn is cold, but it is the best time of year to work with leaves. I made two pieces out of leaves and another out of rocks. Few photographs came out well, but, as I said, there's a lot of playing about to do, so I may go back and give it another go soon.

Off the subject of art, but I'm really chuffed about it, I bought my first formal dress yesterday so that I could go to the Christmas banquet :D It's like, my first proper dress since I was like 7. It's two in one really, the bottom one is a...well, it's not white, it struck me as either pink or purple, but it's so pale and so close to white that arguments could arise over the actual colour, and it has small black dots all over it, and it falls to knee-length, even on me; then the second dress is all black net with a tie-up back and a sort of rouched tail thing. It's so cute, and I didn't have loads of money, so I got it for £12 at TK-Maxx xD but it's better than nothing and now I can go to the banquet ^^ I also bought a little evening bag to go with it :D get me! The banquet's on the 14th December, and pictures will be taken. I'll post them on here either in my scraps, or in ~metalbunofice's scraps with links. But yeah, I am so chuffed with it. Not what I expected of myself at all, but I also tried on a long black slim dress with little silver bits and I was torn between the two, but my sister told me to get that one which I was unsure about, but now, I'm glad I bought that one. I've had to put it away though because otherwise I'll keep trying it on and I'll break it xD it's delicate! But so nice :D /end waffle.

Yeah, I might post some of my land art photos on here. I have to choose my best one and get a friend to print it off A1 sized o_O One of the photos I really like, I might get it printed onto canvas. The photo's reasonably good quality too :D

...mmm the radiator came on *fluffy*

Yay for banquets. :)
And congrats on the new camera, I hope you warm up to it.
I'm glad I have a new camera too, and you will see more of me, so much that it'll make you sick xD I'm glad you like them! I was a little unsure about the Drop of Warmth one, the bottom of the flower is a little out of focus, but the petals came out so well and any other I got didn't look as good. But I'm glad you like them xD
