I like pictures...

 

me: propeller head, papa, hipster doofus, malcontent, former record-store clerk, boozefighter, backslider, aesthete, bookworm, film nut, mobile web junkie

 

I have been called the "Don Cherry of keitai photography". Or wait, no, I think it was the "Antonin Artaud of ketai photography". Or maybe it was neither.

 

If you think my photos suck, blame it on the fact that I take all of them with a keitai cameraphone, often late at night, and almost always one-handed.

 

In reality, I actually use state-of-the-art equipment. But I very carefully and artistically attempt to emulate the look of actual "bad" photos that might be taken one-handed with a keitai cameraphone -- ones taken by a lesser, untalented, amateur photographer. So I like to use a lot of "blur" in my work. And bad lighting. And poor composition.

 

I have named my style "post artistic."

 

Don't believe anything I tell you.
