A Photography Blog
The biggest name in film photography, the first company to introduce personal handheld cameras, the makers of the absolute best film, has come to an end. Kodak has just declared bankruptcy. While it may not be quite the end of Kodak's life, you can be sure that they will never ever be the same. For anyone who ever shot film, take a minute to mourn Kodak. My very first camera was a Kodak...
This here is my little sister, Maggie. She and I are 3 years apart in age, and very close friends. Because of that, she ends up being my model all the time. She is also a fantastic dancer and a very graceful ballerina. I've been doing a little photography with her dancing for the past week or so, and here are two of the photographs I've made.
Another fun mirror photo for you. If you look closely you can see the image in the viewfinder is actually the front of the same camera. The light is coming from a couple light sources, bouncing of the camera front, then a mirror parallel with the camera, then into the camera and off it's mirror, through the viewfinder and into my camera's sensor.

I am one-hundred percent a PC guy. I'm not a Mac fan, for a couple reasons. One, I don't like iPhoto, and two I love folders. Folders in folders in folders. So sorting my photos becomes a bit of a trick. I have some places where I get about 20 folders deep. And I know what all of them are and why they are all sorted where they all. It makes sorting photos a hard and time-consuming task. But certainly worth it. With the new year, I actually changed systems entirely. I started sorting by year first, and then by event/subject/etc. With this new system comes a new folder I call Aesthetics which is simply photos that I enjoy the look of. Here are two examples of this folder
I just read an article sent to me that talks about some issues I've been about a lot. The article is right here: Hey look, it's an article.
This past New Years I made several resolutions for 2012. One of the premier of those being a Photo 365 project. This means that I make one photograph every day to do with a specific theme, my projects theme being Four. The number, the lettering, the geometry, etc. As long as Four is represented in a reasonably understandable form, then it qualifies as my photo of the day. I'll be creating a new tab on my homepage (right beside But what is an Archipelago?) where I'll do my best to keep up to date with my quadrishenanigans. For now, here are 1 and 2 of the series.
