Watch out for a series of less edited shots to come. There are many styles of photography that appeal to me and I've often struggled to put them all here because of the worry that plants, close ups, textures, landscapes, cityscapes etc wont 'fit' together.
The idea behind a lot of these raw/strange looking images is that no matter where you are, it can be fun to just try to arrange elements together to make an image work. Sometimes, although it's not aesthetically pleasing in a traditional sense, it is just interesting to look at things in a different light.

Lettered this for a lesson in my Expressive Type class at the Chicago Portfolio School. We're breaking down lettering into more easily digested pieces, and showcard is a good place to start. Since the strokes were specific and intentional, and because this song is my jam.
Deep dive (about 35m)
It's look like huge stingray ready to fly. But it just prepearing to clean it's gills.
macro shot of a used match....reversed mounted 35mm.
adjusted curves and applied unsharpen mask, now I just need some subjects that can cope with a 2mm DoF and we're away!

For this series, addressing Macro Monday's "Egg" topic, I've got inspired by the Easter tradition of blowing eggs empty and decorating them.
I've made a tiny pin hole on the pointy end of the egg and a bigger one on the other side, in order to empty it. I've then inserted a candle wick through the top hole and poured some melted wax through the bottom end, until the egg shell was filled.
Then it was play time! 😊
I wish you all an "eggcellent" week and a Happy Macro Mondays!
Sunset over a backcountry lake | Sierra Nevada mountains
UPDATE 05.30.2012: I gave this photo a rare bump to the front of my stream because I've done enough reworking on it to render the scene more realistically (thanks to Peter Luxem's always great suggestions) that I think it's worth a second look. What do you think? Here is the original file I uploaded yesterday, which looks almost silly to me now.
I woke up on this beautiful July morning to blue skies and cozy temperatures.
A few hours later, it was pouring and hailing as thunder bellowed across the sky, lightning pierced the jagged peaks, and winds assaulted trees and whipped right through my two jackets. I had nine miles left to hike for the day – with 45 pounds on my back, I should add -- and this was not going to stop me! The feeling of vulnerability only made the scenery more humbling. When I finally arrived at these lakes and selected my campsite, there was nobody else at the lake and I hadn’t seen another person all afternoon.
Just before sunset, as often happens in the mountains when the warm layer of air near the ground rapidly weakens, the skies began to clear. But would they clear enough?! The clouds soon vanished to the west and it became evident that an incredible light show was on its way to the east…just where the light would be headed!
A few minutes later, every cloud you see in this sky turned pink; the most dramatic sky I’ve ever seen. I could feel the fire igniting the depths of my heart, clearing my mind and making me ready as ever to see another day. I'll post that one soon... (but if you don't want to wait, *cough* it's always on my website ;)
I don’t think I realized quite how special this light was until I looked back through my photos from the two-week trip and realized that this was one of the only days I had much in the way of clouds in the right place at the right time. I’ve been able to look through those photos and almost completely re-live my trip. I hope you’re able to live a little of it through this one.
I’m titling this one “Ignition” both for the fiery feel and because I constantly need to remind myself to keep my own fire burning as I find myself perpetually overwhelmed in these last few weeks of the school year…we can make it through!!
Thanks very much for your visit; I always appreciate hearing (er…reading) your thoughts. Will stop by lots of your streams after I get a little sleep :)
