Ah, its always so nice to get home after a day of school and work, and just sit around doing alot of nothing for a few hours, fall asleep, and do it all over again. Today i went to the DMV to get my Learners Permit, finally. Here in Utah your able to apply and test for one when you turn 15, and me being 16.5, it was about time to get to it. I dont realy even want to drive, people turn into monsters on the road, but the price of Driver's Ed is going up, and my mom has to get it paid for before that happens. (oh i passed and got my permit, haha)

Just got a chance to glance through this SP project of yours. You've got some really great shots in here and this is my favorite of the bunch. It really conveys the calmness you are refering to in your comments. It's also funny how it's sandwiched between day 11 (Goofyness) and day 13 (Crazyness) to show the ever changing moods of a teenager. Keep the ideas flowing.

You've got such a future ahead of you in photography with your skills and age. Congratulations on the permit, and I'll look forward to seeing some new captures from you when you have a little more freedom to explore! :-)

Congrats on the permit. Great photo too. Fun expression and pose. Some of the highlights are a bit burned out but the photo still works great.
cheers,

Remember: it's cars that kill, not the people driving them. Seriously though, I probably resemble that remark. Congrat's on the permit - now go get a GPS unit for your camera and start mapping!

Pic-wise - nice, relaxing shot. Little bright on the left side (finally get to say that to someone else) but not too bad.

Nice photo - great tones and I like the peaceful expression on your face.

You look very tranquil!

My only advice, if you get wound up by other drivers on the road, count to 10 and laugh ....

congratulations on getting over your hesitation to get a licence ..
you can be one more driver on the road who isnt a monster ..
i come from a family who are totally into driving ... and driving fast .. !!
my brother rallies and his son paul and i'v done it years ago .. but nowhere near as good as them .. they're amazing .. and its blast to watch ..
but on the road with other drivers its a different story .. always expect them to do the unexpected and make allowances for the fact that they may'v had a teacher who was an idiot .. always be considerate .. never retaliate to ppl who might be having a bad day, or life for that matter .. road rage is just not worth it .. you never know if the person you give the finger could be insane with a weapon under his seat ..
anyway .. i love this pic of you chillin'
its a great photograph and i love your process .. :)
