At small group this week, we had a part 2 of our photography learning adventures. The kids in our small group like to join in on our activities too

I went to Guu with a few friends last night and of course, there was a lineup. We waited for an hour or so, which isn’t too bad. Check out John’s review of the food from the first time he went. We ordered pretty much the same stuff

The food was flavourful and presented well. I really liked the deep-fried Brie cheese with mango and berry sauce and the BC tuna. Yummm!

Deep-fried Brie cheese!

Calamari

Green tea cheesecake?….Nope! It’s wasabi cheesecake!

I watch a weekly video tutorial/blog called D-Town TV, hosted by American photographer Scott Kelby and Photoshop guru Matt Kloskowski. This week’s episode was about how to recover pictures from your memory card that were either corrupt or deleted.

I’ve never tried these programs but there’s a free trial so maybe it’s worth a try.

• SanDisk RescuePro
• Klix

Other tips from the episode:

• Format your memory card after you’ve uploaded the photos to your computer/hard drive. Don’t just delete photos manually…format the card!
• Don’t fill up your card to the fullest. Leave at least 1 or 2 shots left on the card. Then upload the photos or use a different card.

Sometimes, the sunset sky is purple and pink. Other times it’s blue and orange. Still other times, fiery red fades into orange and pink. It never gets old and I love it!

In the winter, the sun sets at the left. In the summer, it sets at the tall antenna tower on the right. So everyday the sun moves a little bit more to the right. I can’t wait til it gets to the antenna!
