It feels good to do something a little different than I have been. I'm hoping to go with Sarah to Folsom Lake and do some water manips...but nothing's set in stone. Needless to say I'm SO TIRED of shooting in this apartment. I'm really feeling stretched for creativity. And the more I work at Best Buy the more and more I hate my D60. It sucks. It won't even let me autofocus my 50mm lens...which would make all my images much crisper, sharper, and cleaner. POO.
But enough complaining, check out my blog entry to see a bit of the creative process and before/after images. Also, feel free to like me on facebook

This picture was taken in Verdun, France. It is a monument to all the unknown soldiers who died at Verdun in WW1. Personally I think that it's really sad when a person dies as an "unknown soldier", because then not only the life of this person is taken but also the identity of this person.
Verdun is a sad place, but it's a good thing that you can visit this place.
This photo concept means a lot to me... Definitely one of the more "personal" works I've done in a while. Inspired by a lot of craziness that happened with me over the past year.
Still not entirely sure how I feel about how it turned out, I think I'm happy with it though. I've never really done anything like this before. But hey might as well try new things out!
Random side-note: I just started photo school back up on Monday... So happy to be back with everybody :) Although it's kind of odd knowing that this is my last year in school!
*Oh, another random thing... I need a song, you guys should put down some of your favorites in the comments, it would be MUCH appreciated! Thanks :)*

Alaska Airlines/Volotea Airbus A320 N621VA vacating runway 23 at Glasgow after a transatlantic hop from Brangor, ME. It arrived as Alaska 9519 and was on its delivery flight to a new home in Palma, Spain, with Volotea. Although it's been fully repainted into Volotea livery, it currently has "operated by Alaska Airlines" titles. The aircraft will become EC-NNZ.

i was wondering what to do for today, i was tempted to do another homage ( i have a few lined up) but was thinking about some stuff and i remembered that i got this 'super deluxe wide angle lens with macro' thing a few years ago that attaches to your lens, i have never used it and thought it was a waste of time (i should have spent the money on a lens instead).
i wanted to play around with the wide angle but the only lens it will fit on is my 50mm, so i started playing with the macro bit. and thought it would be cool to do a fingerprint as that is your unique identity etc. so here you are.

The news that Google may be retiring the Blogger identity prompted me to go through my archives to find the original Blogger designs I did for Pyra in 1999. This is all I could find.

WEEK 7 – Hdo Kroger Marketplace, Set III
One more pan around a little further, and we land on the cheese shop, which is directly across from the deli. Something I find interesting here is that this is literally just a “cheese shop” – not a Murray’s cheese counter, as can be found in many Krogers including the Germantown and Oxford stores (among others). Besides the fact that this is a Marketplace and I would assume a Murray’s would have been a shoo-in here based on that alone… Kroger also outright owns Murray’s now, so there’s really no telling why one of those was not put into the store here in Hernando :/
Although we’re getting ever closer to the front of the store now, there’s still plenty more to see, so stick around for that in two weeks! And until then, next week – one last spin at Spin Street…

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
Entrance of the shop and the port wine cellars of Sandeman in Vila Nova de Gaia on the south bank of the Douro river, City of Porto, Portugal
Some background information:
Sandeman is a trading company specializing in wine and spirits, particularly Spanish and Portuguese fortified wines such as sherry, port, and Madeira, as well as brandy and red wines from the Douro region. The company was founded in 1790. Its well known logo features a caped man known as "The Don" dressed in a Portuguese student's cape and a wide traditional Andalusian type hat. Besides Port and Sherry wines, it also produces Brandy and Madeira wine. Brothers George and David Sandeman from Perth, Scotland, founded the company in 1790 with £300. David left the company in 1798 to found the Commercial Bank of Scotland leaving George in sole charge.
Branches were soon established in Cádiz, Spain, in 1795, and in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, in 1811. In 1953, Sandeman bought the port company Robertson Brothers. Initially passed to his nephew, George Glas Sandeman, Sandeman remained a family business until bought out by the drinks company Seagram in 1979. In 2001 the operation was sold to Sogrape by Diageo and Pernod Ricard who had acquired it from Seagram. A descendant of the founder family, George Thomas David Sandeman, is a member of the board of Sogrape Vinhos S.A.
Porto, also known as Oporto, is the second largest city in Portugal, after Lisbon. It is located along the Douro River estuary in northern Portugal, about 280 km (174 miles) north of Lisbon. With an estimated pospulation of 250,000, Porto’s city center is rather small, compared to its metropolitan area, which has around 1.8 million residents. Porto has one of the oldest European centres. Its core was proclaimed a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996, as the "Historic Centre of Porto, Luiz I Bridge and Monastery of Serra do Pilar".
Port wine, one of Portugal's most famous exports, is named after Porto, since the metropolitan area, and in particular the cellars of Porto’s quarter Vila Nova de Gaia, were responsible for the packaging, transport, and export of fortified wine. It is typically a sweet red wine, often served with dessert, although it also comes in dry, semi-dry, and white varieties. Famous port wine brands are among others Sandeman, Cockburn’s, Graham’s, Fonseca, Offley, Ferreira and Quinta do Noval.
Proto-Celtic and Celtic people were among the first known inhabitants of the area of Porto. However, archaeological findings from the 8th century BC hint at a Phoenician trading settlement. During the Roman era, the city developed as an important commercial port, primarily in the trade between Olissipona (the modern Lisbon) and Bracara Augusta (the modern Braga).
Following the Muslim invasion of the Iberian Peninsula, Porto fell under Muslim control in 716, but was reconquered by Alfonso I of Asturias in 741. Thus Porto became a border settlement, occasionally invaded and conquered by the Muslim Moors. In 1092, during the so-called Reconquista, the area finally came under Christian rule, initially as part of the Kingdom of León. In 1093, Teresa of León, illegitimate daughter of the king Alfonso VI of Castile, married Henry of Burgundy, bringing the County of Portugal as dowry.
After eventually expanding its current frontiers and conquering additonal territory inhabited by the Moors for centuries, the county became the independent Kingdom of Portugal at the beginning of the 12th century. At that time, Porto also became one of the hubs of the Reconquista led by Afonso I Henriques, the first King of Portugal. In 1370, during the reign of King Ferdinand I, the new, expanded, and reinforced city walls, known as the Muralhas Fernandinas (in English: "Ferdinandine Walls"), were completed.
In 1387, Porto was the site of the marriage of John I of Portugal and Philippa of Lancaster, daughter of John of Gaunt. This marital bond symbolized a long-standing military alliance between Portugal and England. In the 14th and 15th centuries, Porto's shipyards contributed to the development of Portuguese shipbuilding. In 1415, Prince Henry the Navigator embarked from the port of Porto on the conquest of the Moorish port of Ceuta in northern Morocco. This expedition was followed by navigation and exploration along the western coast of Africa, initiating the Portuguese Age of Discovery.
By the 13th century, the wine produced in the nearby Douro valley had already been transported to Porto in so-called barcos rabelos (flat sailing vessels). In 1703, the Methuen Treaty established trade relations between Portugal and England and strengthened both countries‘ military alliance. The production of port wine then gradually passed into the hands of a few English firms.
To counter this dominance, the Portuguese Prime Minister Marquis of Pombal established a monopolistic Portuguese firm, the Douro Wine Company in 1756 to receive all the wines from the Douro valley. He demarcated the region for the production of port, to ensure the wine's quality, which was the first attempt to control wine quality and production in Europe, almost a century ahead of a similar exercise in Bordeaux. The small winegrowers revolted against his strict policies on Shrove Tuesday, burning down the buildings of the Douro Wine Company. The revolt became known as the Revolta dos Borrachos (in English: "Revolt of the Drunkards").
During the 18th and 19th centuries, the city became an important industrial center and hence, its size and population increased. The invasion of the Napoleonic troops in Portugal brought war to the city of Porto. In 1809, when the population fled from the advancing French troops and tried to cross the river Douro over the Ponte das Barcas, the bridge collapsed under the weight of the people and almost 4,000 residents of Porto died in the floods of the Douro river. In the Second Battle of Porto, which too place still in the same year, the French Army was thrown out of the city by Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, and his Anglo-Portuguese Army.
In 1820, the Liberal Revolution began in Porto. The revolutionaries demanded the return of King John VI of Portugal, who had transferred the royal court to the Portuguese colony of Brazil since the French invasions, and also a constitutional monarchy to be set up in Portugal. But after the new constitution had been accepted in 1822, the new Portuguese King Miguel I rejected this constitution in 1828 and reigned as an anti-liberal, absolutist monarch.
Porto rebelled again and had to undergo a siege of eighteen months by the absolutist army. After successfully resisting the siege in 1833, King Miguel I had to abdicate and the liberal constitution was re-established. However, not bevore 1910, the monarchy was overthrown and Portugal became a republic. In 1919, forces favorable to the restoration of the monarchy launched a counter-revolution in Porto known as the Monarchy of the North. During this time, Porto was the capital of the restored kingdom, but the monarchy was deposed less than a month later and no other monarchist revolution in Portugal happened again.
Today, Porto is the most important industrial city in the country, thanks to its textile, leather goods, metal, food, and chemical industries, its oil refinery as well as the overseas port Porto de Leixões. The university, the art academy, museums, theaters, and the opera also emphasise Porto's status as a major cultural and scientific center. But it’s mainly the export of port wine and its beautiful UNESCO-protected old town, to which Porto ows its appeal to visitors from everywhere.

Got the Raynox out for a change :o)
There were so many things I wanted to try on my 365 ,think I'm running out of time now :o\
This photo shows one of the few concepts I had planned for the Austria-meet-up. It is about who we really are, roles of sexes and about the society.
Do we really know who we are or are we just a product of society?
A huge thanks goes to Moritz for putting that dress on and modeling for me! I know that not everyone would do that, so yeah, thank you so much! Another thanks goes to Ana who is the other model! Shooting this was really fun - even if the topic is actually meant to be serious.
The Lost Identity - what did a person do .... what shall happen.....next?
.
Being with someone - the whole world changes around itself.....some change their thoughts, behavior, and identity.
.
Joy, rather than happiness, is the goal of life, for joy is the emotion which accompanies our fulfilling our natures as human beings. It is based on the experience of one's identity as a being of worth and dignity. by Rollo May

"Quando qualcuno cerca, allora accade facilmente che il suo occhio perda la capacità di vedere ogni altra cosa, fuori di quella che cerca, e che egli non riesca a trovar nulla, non possa assorbir nulla, in sé, perché pensa sempre unicamente a ciò che cerca, perché ha uno scopo, perché è posseduto dal suo scopo. Cercare significa: avere uno scopo. Ma trovare significa: esser libero, restare aperto, non aver scopo"
“When someone is searching, then it might easily happen that the only thing his eyes still see is that what he searches for, that he is unable to find anything, to let anything enter his mind, because he always thinks of nothing but the object of his search, because he has a goal, because he is obsessed by the goal. Searching means: having a goal. But finding means: being free, being open, having no goal"
