Estonia this Saturday

This weekend, the whole group is going to Talinn, Estonia! I really have no idea what to expect there, I've been told that there is quite a bit of nice contemporary architecture there, mostly designed by Finns. Also, apparently that is where everyone here goes to shop for really good prices. Good, I need a new raincoat, sigh, I lost mine somehow. Anyway, in a city were it supposedly rains a lot, it hasn't rained much. This has also been, according to the locals, one of the hottest summers they can remember so far. I'd say that it's gotten to about mid 80's, max!

Lots of pictures are up at zxinfinity.photoshop.com! Check them out. I also have a bunch of panoramic photographs to post, but they won't fit on my Photoshop express site, because they exceed the dimensions. I need to edit some of them first, but I think ya'll will like em! I certainly do :) My only wish is that I have a big tripod! My little one does no good.


Still drawing... Neither of my 2 partners are skilled at drawing, I'm going to have to step up and do them myself, if I can't teach them by example. I've completed one elevation pencil rendering, and have gotten lots of praise so far by my prof as well as peers... The prof said it was one of the most beautiful he'd seen by a student in the 8 years he's been doing the Finland abroad program. That's cool, but I don't see what he sees... to me it's just like any other example drawings he's shown us.

Anyway, I must get back to drawing. Hopefully I'll have more time to work on those panoramas. Stay tuned!
