I have this habit of randomly taking pics of myself which when collated form a beautiful diary.Looking at these picures,I can easily make out what my mood and state was when I took that picture.
I got my new Dell XPS laptop with Windows VISTA loaded in it. And asusual I started taking pics. Dell laptop’s inbuilt webcams have a default setting which gives in a pleasant black and white effect. The pictures taken are perfect in the mood they convey.What more for a person who likes potraits.
The other day,I was sitting infront of my lappy with the Cam on,but this time was in liesure so started playing with the settings. Thats when I noticed some cool vedio effects. I was unaware of these settings!!!
And so I started off.Soon I was joined by my roomie.We both enjoyed so much, playing with the vedio effects.Some of them have motion effects which,based on the motion captured in the vedio,issue bubbles, fire, stars, snow, ripples, etc.And some other had a still setting .
We went on and on doing crazy stuff imagining ourself to be truely experiencing all those virtual effects.We danced,we played head ball with the popcorn, we tapped the bubbles,stroked the cat,played phantom what not..
Of all the effects,I liked the ripple effect. It was a perfect mimic to reality.I dont think, I have ever enjoyed it in person. I enjoyed like a small kid.Sadly we took vedios which I am unable to share because of the upload limitations.May be some other time at someother place.
Some of the moments are here in the form of pictures.So here we go:
