Only 1 successful pic

King of the tank

After 55 attempts at taking photos with various camera modes, I wasn't getting anywhere. 54 pics were duds with the fish moving too fast for the camera. This is the only picture that came out decent. The verdict : I'm not a great photographer. This calls for some help. After learning the word 'aperture' from The Pan, I decided to do some research.

This site is pretty good, with simple english and clear explanations. So now I gotta figure out the right combination of shutter speed and aperture. Since the speed of fish should be somewhere inbetween the speed of children and sporting events, I'm guessing a shutter speed of 1/320. Now to figure out the aperture thingy and start snapping.

Tomorrow is the Econs midterm exam. Good luck to me and curses to those people who did nothing but come up with these painful theories. My curses go out to Ricardo, Hecksher, Ohlin, Rybcynski and also Leontiff. If I missed out anyone, it should be my previous economics teachers. They aren't good enough to be mentioned here.

BTW, I read this 2 days back in the news. All the talk about pheromones eh Mr Pan?
"Gay men attracted by same scents as women: Swedish study"
We found that homosexual men react the same way as women do to the (testosterone derivative) androstadien pheromone: they get aroused," said Per Lindstroem, a physician at the neuroscience department at the Karolinska University Hospital. The report reveals that gays, unlike heterosexual men, are not aroused by the female pheromone estratetraen but are instead turned on by the same odors that get straight women's juices flowing. When a heterosexual woman senses androstadien pheromones, which have a nearly undetectable odor, the part of her brain that governs sexual arousal is activated. If she senses pheromones from another woman however, only her sense of smell is triggered, he said.

Quote of the day : rape is such a bad term, lets call it surprise sex!
