gorilla for the record. still no back grounds but i like it so far

owning photographs is a very slippery slope.  both side are equally valid in their points but then we need to remember that in both cases that we're talking about what could happen. Photo-synth hasn't been launched yet and the girl wasn't hurt by any means.  Photo-synth has potential to be great and in some circumstances some one's private photos could be spread around the world.

as far as i'm concerned once you put your pictures online they're fair game to be used.  I personally post plenty of my pictures online in the false hope that no one takes them.  but i also turn down the resolution on my images when posting them so if people do use them they don't have the original image.  I use google image for inspiration a ton.  I rarely use it for projects because the pictures are a pain to work with and its copying and there by not really your work.  companies don't really like that.

response to reading

the author talks a lot about the meaning of a photograph and the power that it holds. the idea that this simple piece of paper can capture an incredibly important time in the person's life and that when he talks to them these become such a pivotal part of the memory.  i really like where he talked about what men are typically photographed by and what women are normally photographed by.   this interests me and might be what i'll to my 8x8 project on.  also when he talks about people faces being hard to remember, and thats why we have drivers licenses.  this could make for and interesting project.  

today starts digital imaging ... from now on thats what gets posted here ... i'm seeing my self in a month or so reading this and not remembering doing this
