Stop and Smell the Roses...Follow

I thought I'd update a little and share another couple pictures, if you all don't mind ^.^

Sometimes, there comes a time... when we adventurers must stop and smell the roses. When the race for experience becomes so overwhelmingly frustrating, when the coffer hunts and the questing becomes extremely exhausting... we should take a look at the beauty that surrounds us, in this world of Vanadiel.

So, I'd like to share a bit of the beauty I've taken with me, with you all. I hope you enjoy... eventually, I'll create my photo journal of places, but I don't want to flood this with all the pictures just yet, since I have no site up.
(I'm bad at html ^.^; )

These are wonderful shots. ^^ I've been wandering around various areas with sneak/invis trying to find good photo opportunities (being a amateur photographer offline, myself), and I must say, you've managed to capture the beauty of Vana'diel.. well.. beautifully. Sometimes it's better to just.. explore, then try to gain experience non-stop. Square didn't go through all the trouble to create such beautiful environments for us to take 'em for granted. Kudos to you for taking the time to take these wonderful shots. ^^

Okay the links aren't working, my webspace is being a pain in the **** go figure..

But I liked your shots very much. Nice to know I'm not the only one who is a sucker for the sunsets :p

Really? Wow. I've seen it bunches. Must just be coincidence. Best viewing opportunity is just after rainfall in the daytime, facing east, near the crag.

WOW!!! You even got a shot of Pashow without it raining!! That like never happens lol. GJ! Smiley: grin

Yeah, a sunny Pashow is pretty rare, but quite beautiful ^.^ I'm glad you're enjoying them. If I can get myself to actually work out a webbie for the shots, I'd definitely like to share them with anyone willing to look at it.

Great shots! You should enter some in the contest they have at the official site.

I had an awesome shot of the ramps in Xarcabard, but I was stupid and didn't have fraps running. So they're all crappy quality and stuff. =X

I've wanted to enter, but I always end up missing them ^^; ah well, it's all for fun and relaxation really. To enjoy the neat things the world has to offer.

One of the bigger reasons I can't wait for Promathia is to have even more great shots to take.

I'll see if I can add a couple more shots till I can set up that website I'm wanting and just post one link ^.^

Again, Absolutely beautiful ^^

I have some pictures of my own, like the aurora in Qufim but I'm dumb and I have no idea how to access my pics on PS2 (If it's even possible ) :/

But Anyway, Keep it up!! And I'm looking forward to more updates :)

#19 Aug 30 2004 at 1:21 PM Rating: Decent
Best way to get your pics off the PS2 is to go to the navigator in the POL Viewer, then Mail, and start emailing the pics out. Or to view them I believe they're in file manager. Gives you something to do whilst waiting for updates to complete ^^

I was going to ask you Ele, did you ever get over to our LS site to check those pics of Dynamis and such? Here's the link if you need it ^^

http://www.renkeidorkz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=99

Beware 56k, some of these pics are huge but worth the wait, I can't wait to go to Dynamis.

No kidding, I wouldn't mind getting my BLM up to 36 so my sub will be leveled. I sent all of my BLM gear to my mule because our static is finally starting though so I probably wouldn't be available until next weekend (I'll be away from home all labor day weekend)

Hey Merodi, you ever looked at the beauty of the towns themselves? Yes, I agree full heartedly that there is a lot of beauty in the world outside, but what about inside? Like the lights that light up the bottom of the stairs at night in Lower Jueno. That is pretty beautiful. ^^

I'll see you when I get back into the game in about a week; my mom found my PS2, and took it away. Why I bought the PC version also. ^^
