Day 362

el2_362

Taylor came by yesterday and I took some shots. My sis got me a new toy that shoots Instax film (credit card sized polaroids, sort of) and this is one where I was trying to figure out where I needed to do the exposures.

Not a great scan..hence the dust spots.

So the other day on Whiskerino it was "Album cover day" so we got together and made some magic.

Above is Kevin's submission which is a recreation of an old Simon and Garfunkel album cover. I think we did a pretty good job.

Day 345

el2_345

Random shot from a few Sundays ago. I was testing out the leica and brought it with me to this newish place here in town called ZaZa. My friendquaintance Braxton works there and was serving up a salad. Just digging and saw it again for the first time and kinda liked it, even though its perhaps imperfect.

This shot of Tyree is a lot more realistic for his personality.
I can't believe its Day 343 on year two.

Day 343

And here's another shot from the Iron Bowl. I'm posting this for you, Josh.

This dude's name is Henry and he's an Auburn fan, if I'm not mistaken.

Day 342

el2_342

From a recent Birmingham Magazine story on a new restaurant in Homewood called DoDiYos. These are the three lead chefs; all of whom seem to have a pretty decent reputation. I need to go back there to eat.

Day 341

Here's another shot from the same project. For more info, check out See The Good.

Day 340

el2_340

Ok let's catch up.

I've started shooting some portraits for a new Region's Bank internal blog that focuses on the positive impacts that their bank has by way of their entire corporation, employees, and customers.

The website is called See The Good and I shot two things specifically for it and they ALSO picked up a story on DIG and used my photos for a multimedia presentation. It's a damn good thing Sarah and I are both customers. Ha. Really, I'm just glad DIG is getting a tiny bit more press.

The above shot is one of my favorites from a story about a guy in Hiram, GA who helped out his community during a bad flood. Poke around the See The Good site to see the story. The story is a bit sombre so it was a nice challenge to create a portrait in which I could not rely on laughter to carry the shot. I guess I do that a lot? It did help develop a rapport with Anthony which lead to several successful portraits. That's always nice.

A story by Lonny



I made my name into a spaceship which is being chased by an asteroid. There are 4 planets, there names are Vnon 6, Bleanark 3, Shepoof 2, and Resa 9. There are also 2 vortexes, Sheretononge, and grerota. Last, there are 100,000,000,000 stars. I can tell you some of them. There are 16 Garnoses. There are also 2,000 Grondos. I think you know that this is all made up and a folk tale. You would think, but this is absolutely true. Shh. Not really, but you know what I mean. Anyway there is a big galexy out there, and you never know what you will find. That is the last ending.

el2_339

Weird. Flickr was just in Chinese for me, until I clicked the English link. On both computers. Whatever...it's back now.

I'm still sorting through everything from the weekend i spent with these dudes. I have my first wedding since that weekend in a couple of days and I'm quite interested to see how it goes with my new brain installed.

I may not get to post while out of town. DC bound tomorrow and shit it's gonna be cold.

Building Snow Ladies




I finished this little Snow Lady pin today. She is about 4" tall and is covered in lace and beads. I had some vintage rhinestones that I added to her hat along with a little jingle bell. She is holding a baby snow boy!
I have two more cut and ready to sew tonight!!

Day 338

el2_338

Installment two of the Iron Bowl project. Humanity & Sport again. This is Dave and he was selling programs. He is from South Carolina and was selling programs to help either his niece or cousin...don't remember which. I like him maybe the most of the people I shot, on a personal level. He seemed earnest.
