- i bought a wide-angle zoom lens (28-70 mm) on ebay and it arrived today... looking forward to playing with it! i also ordered a 85-205mm telephoto lens. once it arrives i will be invincible.

- i am going to pass the prelim in february, and go to burning man in august

- it's kind of ironic, but i feel like going to burning man == 'selling out'. but the pictures are so pretty! also, i will not drive there by automobile, but go by single-engine aircraft, camel, or dirigible.

- actually, i'm already behind in my homework. woops.

- does this mean i can't wear the "i don't care what you learned on the playa" t-shirt anymore?

you mean the 'fisheye' effect? it's part of the fun! (-:

Yep - it is artistically fun, but if you want to create panoramas or do 3D reconstruction sort of stuff, you would need proper calibration, and would need to undo this effect before you can go further.. but, this is all ignorable if you are just sticking with taking cool pictures. :-)
