Save Face on Facebook: Facebook Etiquette

One should not friend another whom they have no association or connection with whatsoever.

Poke with moderation and caution

When speaking with someone whom you have been casually ‘facebook stalking’, try to pretend you do not know everything about them. Avoid comments like: “So, I saw you and Mike broke up on facebook…

Rain report: Around where I live ... forecasted rain for next 10 days!

From a familiarization program with young US musicians...

This was back in November 2000... (some of you were not born yet, :p )
LIYO, Long Island Youth Orchestra from US was in Maldives for a special performance.
Event organized by Thomas Imboden from Salaam School.

Seen... while loitering around Feydhoo Island, a few minutes ago.

Seen... scenes from a road trip to hithadhoo this morning

Facemaker's experience with the flip LCD

Photo Critic corner ~ New feature

1. What's with the tilt? Fancy pj style dho hehe
2. Conflict of emotions with...main subjects in front (smiling and relaxed) with standing row (angry and tense)? or... how many subjects are there, btw? Red lady in the front or guy making hand gestures?
3. Overall very harsh lighting... aggravated by over exposure and blown out highlights
4. Too many faces in a jumble. All in awkward positions... Kd seems to be smooching the little guy in front
5. Distracting crown again... see guy in blue shirt
6. Could have cropped out the bald guy on the bottom left. Too distracting and seems bite into the red ladys armpit
7. Another bald guy in blue shirt walking away from center of interest. Crop.
8. Three distinct planes of action...(fore, middle and backgrounds) all creating tension. Could have limited the dof to correct this prob!
9. Guy on extreme right seems to have a 360 degree turned head
10. Guy from front row has cut off hands

11. Hey. Everything can't be bad dho. Look at Lubus (lady from third row) cool angelic expression.

Mistakes:
Guy cut in half
Small misfitting crown on head
Photographer self reflection (duh!)
Lone odd object on table
Odd leaf popping behind subject
Mammoth shadow
Shadows of faces are funny
Flash reflections are harsh and distracting
Background colour mismatch skin tones
Glass showcase in awkward position
Guy partially hiding behind main subject
Odd dof ~ due to aperture setting
Odd perspective ~ due to lens used
Odd cropping (with missing ear!)
Overall freakish flat ambient lighting
Frighteningly over crowded setting
Photo lacks character and/or story

(Probably shot from a high-end Nikon D2H/SB800 setup, blegh!)
