Chanel Iman

I remember when Chanel dropped on to the scene. There was a time when I would never miss an America's Next Top Model episode, or the Tyra Banks show. And I def remember her on both shows once. Any ways she's definitely grown up, this picture is beautiful.

"Send me a postcard when you get there!"

I love traveling! But I've only had the means to leave my hometown twice, and I've never been out of the country. Though I'm working on changing that I still can't wait to see the rest of the world!

My wanderlust fix for now are postcards, and Postcrossing helps me get that. With postcrossing I can send and recieve to people all over the world. It's awesome and like having mutiple pen pals all over the world(something else I've always wanted to do!). What I early like is that you never know where your going to receive a post card from. Everytime you send one you get one!

Some of my favorites:

Live Music

Last Tuesday night I attended a show at Therapy Wine Bar in Brooklyn, NY to see Selzin and Tai Allen . It was awesome night of live music. They may be doing this once a month, there next show is 12/16. I was all ready to add a disclaimer to the end of this post complaining about the lighting, and how I haven't used my camera in so long. I quite like these photo's though, so no complaining from me. Enjoy!

A la prochaine!

The Resistance

I've noticed this sign a couple of times on my way to yoga class, but never had my camera with me. I was a little early to class on Monday and was able to stop and capture this lovely message. I'm glad they didn't paint over it.

Nighty-night

For the Round Midnight project. Taken in Fed/2010.

The Flowers

"I'm very good with plants, when my friends are away they let me keep the soil moist..."

I was home bored last night, when I noticed the vase of dead flower, that I haven't thrown away. I haven't used my telephoto lens in a while. Mostly because it weighs a ton, but I figured I should give it some use. That and my tripod. I like the outcome very much. For some reason taking photo's of dead plants made me think of the video from Fever Ray "When I Grow Up"

Sophia J.

This was my first time shooting a infant. I had no idea it would be so hard! She had never been on grass before and was interested in everything but me. I still got a couple of good shoots in. I ran across these tonight and did the editing to then that I had no idea how to do last year.

I like looking back at old photo's that I thought were soo good and comparing them to what I can do know. It just makes me feel like I'm on the right path!

Photo's taken in 04/08(I believe) in Prospect Park BK NY

Mila Jovovich

I have always loved Mila Jovovich. Since I saw her in The Fifth Element. I love her even more now because it takes a brave women to take of her clothes and be photographed and then have them judged no matter what body type you are.

This Summer Was....

Fabulous!!

Photo's from Tuesday

I've seen him and another horse around this park acouple of times.

My mom mentioned that there always there on Tuesdays......I'll be back there before work!!!!

Survival

"...and existence becomes a grinding effort, guided by belly hunger.."

Have you ever felt like your living just to survive? I've been taking pictures, trying to spark that of hope, of happiness I felt for a second back in September. Working on a roll of black and white film, its taking a min though I hope to be done with it by today.
My mother came home one day with not just one but TWO kittens!! I'm not really a cat person. I'd rather a dog, but there really cute I got to name one and I've never had kittens before so a different outlook is expected.
Did I mention that there both boys and basically identical
The one I named is the sleeping kitten August. I had just finished watching August Rush and its now my favorite movie!! The other kitten my mother named Busy, but she spells it differently, because he's always doing something!!!

Yesterday.

I'm starting to understand what it means to feel inspired. Really it only takes one person to believe in you to get back on track. Thank You Louis Mendes.

Halloween '08

I had to work this Halloween, which is the only way I went out side because I don't like this holiday, I found out that there are some really cool people at my job!

These are polaroids....idk why they scanned this way though.

News.

This is the first photo and only photo I've developed is a darkroom. I'm hoping to get back to this very soon!!! I got my printer/scanner, Woot Woot, so be on the look out for the polaroids I've been taking. I would like to take alot more but it cost SO much to buy the film. Its $15.99 at B&H which is also the cheapest place to buy it thaat I know of, but you only get 10 photo's in a pack. =/

More Photography Please.

Thoughtful

So what’s been going on?

I’m going through a very tuff time right now
It seems like I can only stay happy for a couple of hours before I remember all the shit that’s keeping me down. For one thing I would love to be in school right now but because of my mother I can’t be. A friend of mine asked me wasn’t I relieved to have some time off, to which I answered her Hell no! If the decision had been mine to not go back to school for a semester then fine, but I can’t go back because of something my mother didn’t do makes me highly upset!! I look around at all the people in my life and I feel like a failure….either they have some kind of degree already or there in school and all I’m doing is sitting on my ass. In September I will be out of one of my jobs. Until I find a new one I’m going be taking as many photo’s as possible! Photography has always been my way of cooping with my depression.

Random photo's I found in my computer just when I was thinking about giving up the one thing I love. Seriously photography is one of the best things I can do. Moving on. I found a new book that I love thanks to my friend Here (insert note: I find it funny that I call this girl my friend when we've never meet face to face....we've never even talked on that phone we've only comunicated via the computer.....aww the internet lol :end note)

Any way check out here blogger.

Ohh and the book. Its called The Alchemist. Read it!!!!
