shapes! of things before my eyes!

Some more things as seen and then photographed by my trusty phone. Alas, I wish these were shot with my film cameras.

i went on a walk today

I went on a small walk today, and I need to do that more often because there are things EVERYWHERE to take photos of. That and I want some guys in Afghanisand to have some photos, even if it's of random stuff.

Good thing cell phones take photos, because I almost never carry my Contax or Ricoh around. Plus, I'd need to make a date with a darkroom.

Anyway, here are some of the photos I nabbed.


This tree is the only plastic tree I can ever love

christmas in the snow

The pleasantly cool, but not-really-wintery weather decided to turn wintery yesterday, dropping 8" of snow on us. It was great! A nighttime wander produced the following shots on my extra-classy Android phone.

 This little guy was one of my favorites. So tiny! The Christmas lights shining through the snow was beautiful.




 Giant, majestic fir tree.

 Magical.


Candelarias/farolitos in the snow.

I love the shape of the light being cast here

glass lightning

This is one of the only shots I've ever set up. I rather like how it turned out, and I'm sure there will be more playing around with this sort of thing.

Tilt it all kinds of ways-- it still looks cool!


Do you want a print of this? Yes you do.

Accidental Double Exposure

This was finally going well, finally, and then after I popped in the second filter for burning in the ground and double-checked my focus, I go and put the paper in upside down like a fool.

I think it turned out pretty radly, actually.




My current photo prof, who really is pretty cool, does have this obnoxious insistence that if you make something like the following photo it should be done on purpose. Every time. Of course, yes, you should get to the point where it is on purpose,  but you know what? We make mistakes, and we should be allowed to make mistakes; making certain mistakes can help us along the creating process much more than being told mistakes are always bad (don't take this as a rule for every situation, obviously). Take the image at hand-- total accident, but I would never have thought of flipping the paper to make a double exposure like this.

♪Woo-ee-oo it looks like Moholy-Nagy ♫ Hahaha
