My friend rescued a bird from a women who protected the fallen bird from a cat. She put it up on Craiglist and so my friend drove 30 mins out of her way to rescue it. She was doing her physics work when people got annoyed hearing the bird chirp in the box, so she called me up and ask me to babysit the little creature. I asked my friend Sam help me set up lights to photograph him. I didn’t want to use  a flash mainly because I didn’t want to harm his eye at all, I did some reading before about how flashes of light could cause the bird to go blind for 30 mins or so. This is mainly at night but I just wasn’t in the mood to take a chance.

On that Thursday (same as the pictures from the fashion show below) I went to the ACC Tennis Tournament that was held at Cary Tennis Center. It was actually a very nice place. My main reason for posting this picture is that it amuses me like most reasons why I post sports pictures. Our women’s team lost on the first day. Men’s lost during the second.

While I was there, my friend Jonathan was trying to take a picture of the flowers that were at the Center, so since his camera died he was trying to use mine. So this is basically what I took for him to try and pop some color.

So a few days after that (April 16th) the seniors of the College of Textiles had a fashion show, Threads. Being a good NCSU Photo Club Meetings Coordinator that I am, I helped get this together (somewhat) and went myself to shoot some fashion photography. Now I know fashion photography isn’t exactly my thing (mainly the fact that’s a runway) I still had some fun and got some interesting shots out of it.

Please look at the really nice yellow/gold dress.

Was looking at Photoshop as a way of accenting colors and detail of the dresses.
