Okay, so the new year isn't really that new anymore, but here I am now, with my first post and first new layout of 2008 :-) Yes, as you can see, the layout is very, very different from what I normally do. But I recently found an old coke machine and just had to take a picture of it ;-) Oh, that reminds me! I got a nice camera in December, for which I am EXTREMELY grateful. It take pretty good photos and I'm having loads of fun with it! Oh, and of course, you can see all of the photos I've taken with it on Flickr ;-)
Oh, and speaking of Flickr, it seems that my picture of a half-eaten oreo has gotten unexpectedly popular since I posted it on Sunday night. It's already gotten a little over 100 views just in a few days, and normally, it takes months for one of my photos to even get near that. What can I say, I'm flattered to have my first "claim to fame" on Flickr ;-D
Of course, I couldn't forget to mention that the new Stellar Kart album, Expect The Impossible, is less than two months away! It officially releases on February 26th, and it's already available for pre-order (I already took care of that for myself, of course ;-). On top of that, you'll get to hear a new song from the album every Tuesday (starting at 10:00 AM EST, 9:00 AM WST). As for my thoughts on the new album...well, the JFH has song clips available in their Album PReview section, and judging by what I've heard, I think the previous work of Stellar Kart is far better (especially the amazing "pink and black album," We Can't Stand Sitting Down). The only complaint I have about E.T.I. is that it tends to be a little over-produced at times (in other words, it sounds a little more run of the mill and "not Stellar Kart," if you know what I mean), but aside from that, I definitely do like it and plan to enjoy it! So far, my favorite songs are "Innocent," "Shine Like The Stars," and "Letters." Ah, and here's a link to the graphic I made in honor of the up-coming album...
As my mind is a bit empty/drained right now, I plan to be back soon with more important things to talk about :-) TTYL!
Funny: It seems that my niece, Niece1 got a little confused about how to play Rock, Paper, Scissors. She said, "Let's play Rock, Paper, Scissors. Okay, I'll be the rock, you (Niece2) be the scissors, and you (Jordan) be the paper."
Verse: "...walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh." - Galatians 5:16 (ESV)
I am so proud of your photos. you are doing so good :)
oh and I love your coke layout! it's so cool :)
Thank you, Spence! :-)
THAT picture is awesome!! Now I want an Oreo.
What brand is this grand new camera? Is it a Nikon D50? That's what my sister uses. It's NICE... and your picture looks like it matches the Nikon quality... or something else equally awesome. :)
I wasn't aware of Stellar Kart releasing a new album! I love the album art overall... though I see a few things I would've done differently.
Very cool Jordan, that photo is amazing! It looks like a true photographer took it, you've definitely got the talent. I LOVE taking pictures too, I'm thinking taking photography once I get into college ( = Hope you're doing well, is there anything you need prayer for in particular? You're on my prayer list, but I need details ( = Love you!
