Getting a few new photos up today before lunch time. Their both trees...I wasn't really planning a theme, but I guess I do have a ton of tree photos. These are both from 2007...the first is from Pretty Place and the second is from Jones Gap.

Monday

I've barely accomplished anything today, but I will update here. I'm adding two old photos, depicting two even older photos. These images were shot in 06, the negatives in the shots were some of my earliest shots ever, sometime in 05. I liked the look of these, but haven't been able to completely repeat it since. One of those priceless errors I guess.

Sunday

So...I finally missed a day updating this thing. To my defense they were paving the parking lot here and I didn't have access to my computer. Oh well. I'm posting two images today from a trip to Connecticut/Rhode Island. We camped near the beach and a few mornings I got up at 6am (an amazing feat, for all who know me) and shot a few rolls of slide film.

Open Studios

So...I went to the Open Studios meeting last night. One of the topics was the 12x12 show, which I'm definitely looking forward to. To practice and for fun, I am going to post some square images today. They won't be what I use for actual show, but I do like square photos.

The first image is one of Joe Lanier's horses. He was nice enough to let me come by one day and take a few pictures.

The second is of one of my grandfathers tool boxes in a shed he built behind his house. The shed hasn't been used in years and nobody is really supposed to go in it (it's built on the edge of a very steep hill and I think its expected to fall over the edge at some point). You can see the 6-8 foot incline under the ramp to the toolbox, that actually continues another 20 feet or so out of frame.

Thursday...so rushed.

Two more old images today. The slug is from 06, the other is from the Clemson Botanical Gardens shot in 07.

06-24

A couple random photos I dug up from the back of my hard drive. The wine glass I shot in my room before I had space to work. The entire setup was about 3 feet by 4 feet and I feel claustrophobic just thinking about it. The other picture is my friend Jim's dog. I shot it a few years ago with a crazy flash diffuser made out of paper and electrical tape. Note the lean, that dog loves to lean.

Tuesday 6-23...with minutes to spair

Ok, I wanted to post something before I (I was about to say "have to" here but I've learned that's a no-no) go pack up and go shoot.
