Pontiac Lake

My cousin Amir and I went up to Pontiac Lake at sunset and got some very neat shots. I also found a plugin for the GIMP that can resize, non-uniformly, without losing any details, it’s simply amazing. Link
So today, I’ve got you an example of what that plug-in can do, and a panorama of Pontiac Lake, enjoy =).

Changes

Well, once again, I forget to write about my daily life and activities in a blog (or blog type thing). So I’m giving up writing there, I just can’t seem to keep up. Don’t worry, there will be updates, just not on me. I’m going to using this tumblr pretty much as a photo-blog for now on, posting photos I take. This means less reading for you, so rejoice!

Kenneth Foster Free!

     For those who don’t know, Kenneth Foster was a man given the death sentence for a murder, even the courts agree he did not commit. In Texas you can be given the death sentence for merely being an “accomplice” of a murder, which the courts decided Kenneth was. What happened was, Kenneth was driving a friend of his, and in short, his friend ended up getting out of the car and killing someone. Kenneth was not aware that his friend was going to commit the murder, and was merely giving him a ride. The courts still considered him as an accomplice and gave him the death sentence. Well today, our justice system comes through. Tonight, the night scheduled for his execution, he governor of Texas agreed to commute his death sentence.
