neil-bright.jpg. Me, July 2000. Captured with my brother's IBM webcam.
The bad lighting was semi-intentional. I played around with the contrast, gamma, and blur a bit, too.
neil-dark.jpg. Me with my hair down. I swear I was not on drugs. Same
webcam.
neil-purple.jpg. Me with a lock of hair down. Same webcam. This one
is my favourite of the bunch. I'm not sure why this and not the others has a purplish tint to it. Anyway, if
I decide to be a goth, this will probably have something to do with it. Fortunately for my potential gothhood,
you cannot see the fact that I was wearing a quasi-hawaiian shirt.
neil-eye.jpg. My eye, same webcam. The camera isn't black-and-white,
it just doesn't pick up colour too well in this lighting; my eyes are really significantly more blue than
this image. If you look close you can see me reflected in the monitor reflected in my eye.
trent.jpg. My brother, same webcam. This was in a different room, so there
was decent lighting. Trent is the pimp daddy G or something like that.
lucky.jpg. My father's dachshund. Note the artifact of the green eyes---it
makes her look possessed or something. Captured with Wendell's digital camera.
megapenguin.jpg. My huge-ass christmas penguin. It looks like it's
on crack or something. Maybe it's that arctic circle-candy. Also taken with Wendell's camera.
neil-crazy.jpg. Me again, December 1999. Lucky, on the bed behind
me, looks like she just saw a ghost or something. I look like I had too many penguin caffeinated peppermints
that day; I probably did. Same camera.
