like a shadow
made up
from a stark
candle lit flame
it passes by
unnoticed
hidden amidst
the chaos
that surrounds it
patiently,
it waits
for the precise moment
to devour . . .
unrelentlessly

pralines ‘n cream
even as a kid, i have always loved eating ice cream. here where i work, the catering either serves a local brand that comes in plastic cups but if you ask them “scooped”.. what they’ll give you is a baskin robbins ice cream. my favorite is the pralines ‘n cream flavor- vanilla ice cream with buttery, caramel candy-coated pecan pieces and a caramel ribbon. askar, the bangladeshi waiter from the mess hall knows that i am fond of it and the other day after dinner he told me that he has something for me.. it was a half gallon of the said ice cream! i hurriedly went straight to my sleeping quarters and devoured it..
megapixels
i sold my 6 month old 7.2 mp cyber-shot to a co-worker so i can buy sony’s latest one, a 13.6 mp, pocket-able, point-and-shoot digicam. i have read that there are cameras with higher megapixels in them like 14 or even 21, so does it mean that the higher the megapixel a camera has, the better resolution the results of the pictures will be?
a megapixel is defined as one million pixels, the term pixel is actually short for “picture element”- these are the small colored dots that make up the image on the screen (like the lcd screen of a camera).
some say that the more pixels, the more detail the camera can capture but i have also read that with compact cameras with more pixels, the worse the images can be. well i think it is not all dependent on how many megapixels a camera has, for other specifications should also be considered. well if the pictures turns out to be blurry even with a 13.6 mp digicam.. that surely wouldn’t make sense.
