Places to Avoid.

Sometimes when you pass a place and all you have is your phone, you snap the picture anyway and hope for the best.

It’s Starting to Ad Up.

First assignment that involved making an actual advertisement.
The teacher didn’t hate it, though I missed the mark.
I can’t wait to get it right on the first try.

A Moment of Silence.

One of the coolest things that a camera can do is lie about the instant it captures.
Take this image, for example. They look like they’re calm and like they’ve been sitting there for a long time, contemplating whatever it is that lives in that tank (it’s a family of river otters, but that’s beside the point).
Only some of that’s true. Right after this, they were clambering to get down. Just before this, they were hooting and laughing at the antics of the otters.
This moment of silence was precious more than a millisecond.
And that’s why it’s beautiful.

The Beginning of the Project.

This is an iPhone photo from behind the scenes of the big project.
It’s up.
And running.
Have a look and then come back and lemme know what you think.

The Steam Effect

Something Wicked This Way Comes.

This is not part of the project that’s starting TOMORROW, but it’s an outtake from one of the images.

Join me and a group of my buddies in looking at our summer project: The Steam Effect

Storm Warning.

It’s been raining off and on around here for the last few days. It’s a nice break from the sweltering heat, even if it brings humidity.

This construction area is right next to where I park at school now.

The Fruits of Many Labors.

Finally.
I’ve been working as a director for this large scale project and we’re just now getting to a roll out stage.
There will shortly be a website I’ll be able to share with you.

These are gonna be cool. I promise.

Brandcentered.

Orientation.

Searching.

I spent a few hours in the archives of the local paper few days back. It’s amazing how much history you can glean from stuff like that. I could’ve stayed a lot longer.

A Room With a View.

I visited the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts while I was waiting for a new acquaintance to finish a meeting he was having there. I hadn’t been to the space since before their recent (major) renovation.

It’s AMAZING.

And all I shot pictures of (with my phone cam) were things that other people didn’t notice. Go figure.
