Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Fay's outfit sounds gorgeous!

Her lack of one does too!!

Because books.

Hey, Tom! You're a wonderful photographer, so you'll know -- can I take black and white pictures with my digital camera? (If there's not, like, a special button for it?) Or do you have to make pictures black and white in editing?

Not Tom, but most digital cameras do have a black & white setting. I prefer to take full color pics and desaturate them in Photoshop (or iPhoto) because you don't really get the same advantages with digital (unless it's a seriously high-end camera) as you do with b/w film, and I always have the color versions in case I want them.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Woohoo, Glam!

I had to go over to the Other Hospital Where We Work today, the one that's conveniently on the college campus that pays my salary and, incidentally, gives me library borrowing privileges. So I spent the end of the afternoon breathing the sweet scent of old books, three of which I checked out...at which point I discovered the undergraduate library has a checkout period of four weeks, not three months like the main arts & sciences library. Oops. Hope I can renew them, because there's no way I can read three Serious Research Tomes in a month along with all the books the Seattle library keeps throwing at me from my holds list. On the other hand, it means that soon I'll need to go back to the library and it's wonderful aroma and beautiful books.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yay, glam!

We picked up our marriage license this morning. Meep.

Forgot to say: WHEE!!!

Thanks, Jess! I can't seem to find a b&w setting for mine (although it has, like, Night, Portrait, Candle, and all kinds of other stuff), but I did read something that suggested exactly what you said about digital vs. b&w film.

I couldn't figure out how to do it in Flickr, though. The Piknik editor confused me there.

I don't know much about photgraphy. There was just a long thread in BuffistaTech where people tried to explain to me what an f-stop was. I'm just going to nod and say, “What Jessica said.”

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yay, GC! You will be a beautiful bride!

But ... you take awesome pictures!

(I have no idea what an f-stop is. I had a good 35 mm that I never figured out to use except for on auto.)
