Glowing in the Dark

| Wednesday, July 1, 2009


Hi everyone!

Firstly, I have to say I'm extremely sorry about the quality of these photos when they are enlarged. They tend to get pixelated! Blame Google Picasa that squeezed these 1.6MB photos to 57kb... I've learnt my lesson this time. Do you have any other idiot-free photo editing program (not as time-costing as Photoshop!) to recommend, that is free? Please drop a note! I'm desperate for something that doesn't squeeze my photos, but still corrects the exposure, contrast etc. Thanks!
Now, for the picture.This picture was captured under a transparent glass dome! As the sunlight shone onto these plastic chairs, the brightness contrast was strong between these chairs and the background = Chairs shone under spotlight, "glowing in the dark"?

Where the Dragonfly lands

|


This little one was captured under the blazing Sun during an annual inter-school Track and Field meet. Our little friend was resting it's wings (definitely not its legs) on the tip of the flagpole where the race ends. Certainly it's as tired as those sprinters out there.
Rare to see dragonflies loafing around in stadiums, well, at least in where I live. In fact, dragonflies usually only loaf around in parks here.
