I notice lately that a lot of films are becoming 3D. Two days ago we went to the Cinema to see 'A Christmas Carol', and that was '3D', but I also notice that a lot of other films are becoming '3D'. Ben and Nomi also went to see 'Avatar', which was also 3D, and Tim Burton has Created a new film of 'Alice in wonderland' which is also going to be 3D, Toy story 2 is coming out again, but in 3D, and also 'Toy Story 3' is also coming out in 3D; I hope that the next Narnia film (which will be 'The Voyage of the Dawn Treader') will come out on 3D. I think soon all the films will come out in 3D, I think that could be the latest stile of film.
First we didn't have any films, them we had black and white films without sound, them black and white films with sound, them low quality colour films, them average quality colour films, them really high quality films with really good graphics, and Special Effects. And now we have '3D'. I think that is going to be the latest quality. When we went to see 'A Christmas Carol' we got given these 3D glasses, but we took our 3D glasses with us because soon we might be buying quite a few 3D films because they are all turning 3D. I certainly think that 3D is absolutely 'fantastic', it made 'A Christmas Carol' quite scary in scenes. Thanks for reading, I'd love some feed back. Please.

I've also done lots of other work on PhotoPlus which you can see bellow this post. I'll talk to you showing how I did them all.


This first Image is an Image of myself and a clone of me, what I did was I had two images of myself and I copied one Image onto the other Image and them erased the background, and behold I got this picture.

It took me a while to figure out how to copy one Image onto another Image, which is what I did on the clone picture. I was trying to figure out how to do that, but I used the wrong tool, and figured out another effect, and that effect was quite similar, it was were you got one Image onto another, but in a different way; It made the Image look quite sort of cartoony. The Image bellow is the Image that I got.


This final Image was done the same way that the clone one was done; I just got an Image of me hiking and put it onto a image of the beach, and this is what I got.

Sorry I haven't quite finished my essay posts yet! I know I said I said I had finished the series of posts on 'Photography', but There is something about Photography which I think I should put on here. About two weeks ago I finished the Photography coarse: But while we were at 'the Photography coarse' we learn how to edit Photos using 'a Photo editing program', I learn t how to make blared Photos clearer, and how to get one Image onto another Image: For Instance; just supposing I wanted to get a sheep that's in one Image onto another Image; this coarse told me how to do it........ Anyway as part of our homework we had to get three images and edit them and get three other Images and take a bit of the Image out and put it onto another Image. The Images that I did are bellow. I've also made some other ones which I will Upload sooner or latter.


These are the first three Photos that I have edited.













These three Photos that have been edited are the ones which I have just Sharped and brightened up a bit.

I wrote 'Gluten Free Cook Book' on the first edited Image because I also plan to use it for my Gluten Free Cook Book which I made.

What is love?

This is another omnibus essay that I have to do, and it’s on the subject of the question ‘what is love?’ I told you in an earlier essay that there are many meanings of the word ‘friend’. If you’d like to know what the meanings are them you can read my other essay. But I’m here to tell you about ‘love’. Like the word (friend) love can have many meanings: There are four main types of love, the first is the type of love is the type of loved that parents, Children, brothers and sisters have which is called ‘the family love’. The second type of love is (which is a similar type of love) is the type of love that ‘man and wife have; the third type of love is ‘a friend ship love’ (the type of love which King David had with Jonathan: which I told you about in the friend essay). Finally we have the Spiritual love which is the type of love which ‘God’ has with us. Even though these are all different types of love in one way there all the same, the bible clearly talks about putting true love as putting people before yourself! You should sometimes sacrifice yourself for your family, sacrifice yourself for your wife, and sacrificing yourself for your friend. And sometimes you have to sacrifice yourself for ‘God’. Now, that doesn’t mean die in God’s place because God can’t die, but it does mean when the Gospel is not allowed you should still cling to the Gospel and even die for it. In the story of ‘Till we have faces’ by C. S. Lewis Orual kind of loved Psyche, but it was a selfish ‘love’, she tried to be kind to Psyche and she really expected kindness back, but it wasn’t that Psyche was being Unkind, she just wanted to go up to heaven, but Orual accused her of being unkind for leaving her, so that was a selfish ‘love’ (she was only kind to Psyche so she would be kind to her) so that wasn’t a true love. Thanks for reading come back for next time.

Hi again! I thought I should start doing a few post on the essays that I'm doing in my work. In September I've started doing 'Omnibus' which is a kind of study of the Bible. I've had to do lots of essays for 'omnibus'. For my first essay I'll tel you the 'friend essay' that I did.
Here it goes.

This is an essay about what a true friend is.

Like the words (love, normal and big), Friend can have many meanings. You might think of a friend as someone who you go out to clubs with and talk to regularly, you might of gone to a meeting and talk to someone and you come home and your mum said “Oh you’ve made a friend” when actually you just had a conversation with him. If someone asked you “what is a friend”? you might come up with one of these examples, but the question “what is a true friend”? is a bit trickier. There is really only one meaning for ‘a true friend’. In bible David and Jonathan were ‘true friends’, the bible says David loved Jonathan more than he did women; Now, that doesn’t mean he loved Jonathan in the same way man and wife love each other, (that is wrong) It meant they loved each other very much and cared for each other as well. True friends are very close, that doesn’t mean its wrong to have a conversation with someone at a meeting, it just means that isn’t a true friend. Thanks for reading. I hope its helped.

Sorry that I haven't blogged in a while, I haven't really been feeling like it! I thought today I should do a poem that I've edited. The poem is by the well known play writer 'William Shakespeare'. But I've edited some of it into my own words. First I'll tell you the original poem! It went like this:

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough do shake the darling buds of May, And Summer's lease hath too short a date". That was just a little bit of it. Now I will tell you my version.

"Shall I compare thee to a computer? Thou art more funny and sunny than the sun at night, And like a castles knight". I know it's not that good, it doesn't rime that much, but it's the best one I could think of. What do you think of it?

Hello again! This might be my final post on Photography! Yesterday it was my sixteenth birthday and one of the presents I got was a new tripod for my Camera, it was quite a strong tripod to. Its going to be far better now to do animations, and take Photos of the moon and stuff..............Anyway I told you on my previews post I would do a post on the type of camera that I have. The type of camera that I have is a 'Nikon D60'. It coasted a lot of money, but it was certainly worth it. As you might of seen on my other blog, { I have token very high quality Photos with this camera }. We went to greenfield yesterday to take pictures with my new tripod and we have token some quite nice Photos with it (I'll Upload them to my other blog soon)........ Anyway below is a picture of what my new camera looks like. Do you think it looks nice?

I've learn t many things with doing this cause, I've learn t that you can change the Camera quality to take a photo. I've started learning stuff like how to edit Photos on the computer using Photo Shop (a software which you can edit Photos and make them more colorful). You can have a ferly blared Photo and change it to a really well colored Photo and you wouldn't even notice its colored in, it is quite remarkably. We haven't got Photo shop. We've got Picasa, but its not the same as Photo shop, but you can brighten the pictures up a bit. You can also make one object clear but make the rest blared. I think that will do for now. On my next post hopefully I'll be talking about the type of Camera that I have.

I've given up on the holiday posts because its a bit late to start one now, I'll do another holiday post if you want, but I'm sure you won't want me to do one. I thought I should start doing a few posts on Photography. Me and my dad are doing a Photography coarse in Decide Collage. I've learn t many things with doing this cause, I've learn t that you can change the Camera quality to take a photo. But I'll speak a bit more about that on my next post. Below there are a few pictures of the cause. I know the3re not very good and I might put some better ones on here sooner or latter.

Hi again. Sorry that I haven't quite finished the holiday posts yet. There's still going to be a post of that soon, I thought I should just show you this animation that I've done. On the new Camera that I've got you can do stop motion animation on it, the same tipe of animation that I was planning to make Patrick the big bad creepy monster. I have recently started thinking that the film would never get made, but now, who knows? I am planning a new film which I am hoping to make to.

Hi again. Sorry I haven't posted for a while, my mind's been on other things. I thought today I would be talking about the funny stories which we had when we were on holiday in Cardigan. We had al lot of trouble putting the awning up, the wind was far to heavy for putting the awning up. Originally we got the owning up, BUT it didn't stay up for long. Poles kept falling down and one night the whole owning was falling down again and with difficulty we got it back up, BUT again it wasn't the last time. It happened again and again eventually we told the farmer about it and he came with a rope and a tyre to keep the awning up, it fell down again but that was when we were leaving so that didn't matter so much. I'm so sorry but I didn't get any pictures of the awning falling down but I did manage to get a picture of the rope which the farmer used, if you want to see it just look underneath this post. We also had a funny moment when we were leaving. The car with the caravan on the back wouldn't move so once again we told the farmer about it and he came back with a tractor and pulled the car with the caravan behind it. I'm sorry once again I haven't got a picture of it which is a pity because it would be quite interesting to see all three engines being pulled by each other.

These are two pictures of our caravan and awning which we stayed in when we were on holiday.

I have just got a new Camera, a expensive Nikon D60 Camera and we got it just before we went on Holiday in Cardigan so I thought I should start doing a series of posts on two subjects which are the holiday which I went on and Photography. When we went on holiday we took lots of Photos and when we got home Ben and Naomi sang some Psalms so I put the Psalms and some of the Photos together and I got quite a good video, you can watch it here. I have also crated a new blog which you can get to by going on the website for http://alexisdoingphotography.blogspot.com/

In about January this year I did a post about the Christmas Carol Banquet that we did. As I told you I was the Ghost of Christmas yet to come, I edited the picture and I painted myself to make me look more ghost like. Believe it or not, I didn't paint the whole face. I just added painted eyes and nose and mouth to it, it was quite a bleard photo so the face already looked that colour. I also painted over its cloak to make it look better. Do you like it? Because I quite like it but I know its scary.

Esther has made a really sily quiz about the lord of the rings, it is called the funny middle earth quiz. Aparently I was rubish which suprised me, you will probably be better than me.

Next week we are planning to go on Holiday to Rora house in Devan. I'm sure some of you have been to Cefen Lee in Mid Wales. Rora house is a similar place to Cefen Lee, it is for Christan home educators.There are quiet a lot of people we know who are going like the Van Den Brooks and the Kinlokts. Please I beg you to post a common wile I'm away but don't expect a reply until I come back from the Holiday. I might also bring my Camera to Rora house so I can take Photos and load them on to my blog.

These are pictures of things done on Paint. Most of you probably think its to good to be Paint. I found a video on Utube that showed you how to use Paint. If you want to watch that video just go to the bottom of this post and you can watch it. It is very interesting and it should help you a lot. Please post a comment on what you think of them and tell me which one is the best.



I didn't think this one was as good as the others. Do you think its rubbish to?
I actually think this one is better than the third one. Do you think so to?

This is the latest picture I've done. What do you think of it?



This is the video I found that tells you how to do the Cartoons which I did so if you want to make pictures to you should watch it.
