So today I put one of my photos on a work computer as the wallpaper...

My boss walked by and asked me what it was, I told him I called it "God's Butthole".

Am I going to hell?

1. Was it really ~that~ bad?

:D

2. Is this the photo in question?

Because if it is, it is gorgeous.

3. yes, a tiny version for posting on messageboards and stuff

the full size is over 3000 pixels across

4. Where did you take that?

I have always had an interest in photography (even won a few contests in college, boasting off), but since I had kids, I have had to resort to the digital because I kept stuffing film in a drawer and not getting it developed.

Before I had kids, I took only B and W photos and developed them myself, but now I don't have time for any of that, and I miss it.

5. It was taken at the Museum of Fine Arts just outside of Boston

with a digital camera

I've developed my own rolls of BW film at school, the series of matcom getting frisked and busted by the fake cop were some, I wish I'd had them developed at a lab instead as they came out so granulay and bland.

Oh well. Now I'm onto Fuji film, and WOW what a difference in color quality. When I'm using my film camera of course.

6. I love my digital camera.

It takes great pictures, not art of course, but nice, crisp shots that I can send to family and friends.

I do, however, miss the art of setting up a shot, or waiting for the right shot. Hopefully, at some point, my life will slow down a bit and I can start that again. I have the perfect place for a darkroom in my house here, but that might inconvenience the family members that would have to go upstairs to use the bathroom.

7. Take pics anyway

even if you don't intend for them to be 'art' when you take them, you might get some that are

8. Good point.

I do have a problem forgetting to get them developed, though. My youngest is eight and I still have film from her first year that needs to be developed.

9. heh, if anything comes out, it'll be like opening a time capsule

You should send it in, with instructions that its old tomorrow

10. In the express handbasket, dude.

But there's a long sordid list that would get you a 1st class ticket WAY before this.

Nice pic, by the way. Your talents are wasted on this Executioner gig you've picked up.
