Day 71 - Technology through the ages

Today's assignment was to make a photograph that illustrates a role of technology in your life. I have an iPad on a trial basis from the school board. My job is to find various apps that can be used at the elementary level. While doing this I've also found some great apps for preschool (We do have preK at our school) and have tested them out on the godchildren. This is little Sarah's hand. She loves the Whimsy app. When you finish putting all the pieces of the puzzle together, a real-life picture appears of the animal and it plays its sound. The trickiest part of the app for Sarah is keeping her touch light.

Day 7 - Collage

Just updated my computer which means I now have access to the new Apple app store. Yahoo! They have all kinds of interesting apps. Of course I checked out the photography ones first. I found a very cool one called Collage. You can choose an unlimited number of photos and it will put them in a collage for you. You can then do a bit of moving around and adjusting, save it as a jpg and then all that's left is putting it on your blog. I spent some time playing with it and decided to choose some of my pics from 2010 and create a blog. It's kind of cheating because I didn't take these pictures today but I did create the collage.
