Raw files now working in CS4

Well for some how my Raw files will now open in Photoshop CS4. Don't know if it is because I'm using the camera software to download off the card but that seems to be the only thing I can think of. I'm running CS2 at home and even though I have updated the camera raw plug it will not  work but used CS4 in class and it works now. All I can say is yay. Now its time to go get some blank disk so I can clean out my portable hard drive. Even after editing and cleaning out files and bad pics I still have eleventy billion pics taking up space. So easy to get carried away using a digital camera.  I've been putting it off but time to clean house or im gonna run out of space for all the wonderful fun pics in my future. There out there calling me to take them I can hear them now while I sit at my desk. Well time to go get some work done. later all.

The Weather and update on camera woes

So much for well made plans. I had planed to go out tonight after work and take a few night shots for my photo class, but guess what I woke to this morning, rain. Looks like it going to rain all day too. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I spent a lot of time yesterday taking indoor shots and playing with flash and exposure in bad lighting.

My camera woes and the dirty dishes

Okay so I pinched my pennies to get a digital Cannon Rebel XS SLR camera to use for my digital photography class and my art. I love the camera takes great pics and I've learned how to use it pretty well in class. All my art training has paid off, in that I seem to have a good eye for framing and taking some pretty creative shots. All a surprise to me.I had no idea I was going to enjoy this so much.

My dilemma, for some reason there seems to be a problem opening the camera raw CR2 files in photoshop cs2, cs3 and cs4.

The WebPage

Okay so I've been playing with the idea of having my own web page for awhile. But I wanted to be able to use my own ideas and create my own page from scratch. I went so far as to take Graphic Design classes while I was completing a Fine Arts associates, which I completed last fall semester. Well my interest in art and technology came together perfectly in graphic design and I ended up loving it, so I'm now on the last legs of that associates as well.

Yah call me crazy, while doing all this I worked on campus, still do (I'm a fixture now), raised my teen's and tried to keep some type of order at home.
