new acquisitions include an early 80's San Diego-made lugged steel Holland, a French aluminum Vitus (with full vintage DuraAce group), a no-name parts bike, and a few racing wheel sets from which I will pirate hubs for new, prettier wheels. Someday these will all be lovely, crotch-ready cruisers...for now, they pile themselves into a menacing snarl of rust and chunky grease in my building's laundry room. Sorry housemates!
Oly meets Oly. The new boy met the old boy today. I was hunting for a picture and found my old Oly Trip 35 gathering dust in a cupboard. I get the feeling that we'll see more of this
The picture on top is my reflection photo. I choose to take a picture of lipsticks because I thought it was creative. I also like the bright reds in this. I added some minor adjustments like brightening the photo and taking out some yellow as well as boosting the reds. I found the lipsticks in my mom's makeup cabinet. The exposure for this top photo was one sixth of a second. The reason it was so slow was that it was taken indoors in a bathroom.
The second picture is scissors. To me scissors have a very distinct shape so I thought it would fit the project well. I took this picture on my desk at a one thirtieth of a second. I made a few adjustment in the beginning, but I thought the picture just looked really plain. I clicked the invert button by accident while editing the picture, but I ended up liking the filter very much because it really made the shadow pop. Also, i boosted the yellow all the way and it made the whole background black. I liked this project because I liked to think about shadows and reflections when normally I see them and just pass them by.
You can see the outline of the shoulder blades forming. Also the trunk arching from the top of the skull and the basic jawline.
The Groundnuts Project -- sounds like a 60's band. I spent last Friday
traveling with the hospital truck to a nearby district to pick up around
4,000kg of seeds for peanuts and soybeans to bring back for seed
distribution this week. It's been kind of a madhouse with staying up
late to pack up seeds, leaving early in the morning the next day to
travel out to the villages and do the distribution ceremony, and cover
my inpatient duties at the hospital. We ended up moving around a total
of around 8,000kg of seeds, which has been developing my back and
stomach muscles -- Zambians have such good core strength, I think it
comes from hoeing and hauling around 50kg sacks of maize! You could
continue to pray that people feel the love of God through the work at
the hospital and through these gifts of seeds, and that there will be a
good harvest for the families that plant them.
Another butterfly with a broken wings was found in the wild. These butterfly could still survive with a minor injury on their wings. Please don't hurt them further.

I just noticed that in addition to the rest of my face being bloodied and swollen from oral surgery, I also have a black eye. Yay. Taken with the front camera on the iPhone with Camera+
Pabalo Picasso said "every child is an artist", my friend Ruthie nurtures the artist in her daughter Candace...Kudos.
Today was a day I really needed, brought smiles to my face because it brought lunch from Mindy, yogurt from Nancy, and a wonderful dinner with Anh. I worked on a project I can't wait to show you, because being around the right people gives me this passion that drives me, makes me to want to do more. It just fuels my art.

I'm abit behind on uploading. Days 15, 16, &17 were all taken on the right days, I just didn't edit or upload any of them.
Day 15 was my drive-home day. My mom drove me to St. Lucie to get my car, &then I drove the rest of the way. I have to say, it was pretty nice heading home, getting off the highway, &knowing I was going back to my apartment.
Muffy chilled in the backseat the whole ride, but in my mom's car &mine.

Before:
My project is to take a picture of food in different ISO. To be able to take a good picture of food the camera should be over the food and the camera should be zoomed in the food so that you can see more detail of the food. To take a good picture of food I would take in a high ISO because the brightness would give the food a fresh look. For the aperture I would put it on a high number because the higher the aperture the more depth of field so more detail of the food can be shown in the picture. I would also have a low shutter speed because I do not want too much light in my picture. I would also focus in the middle of the image.
After:
I took my picture with f/ 4.5, shutter speed of 1/10sec and ISO of 800. In my picture there is some pattern and symmetry based on the way the food is positioned. This picture also includes a view point since is a photograph from high above of the subject. I put the aperture on f/4.5 so that you can see the detail of the food and so that there is more depth of field. The shutter speed is 1/10 since the ISO is high you want the shutter speed to be faster so the picture isn’t too bright. I focused the camera toward the middle of the plate since it’s like the center of my subject. I took the same picture with different ISO to experiment and found that ISO 800 gave me the results that I adored and it makes the food look appealing.

The Loop Yoga Project
Loop Yoga utilizes digital and analog sampled music in the creation of repetitious sound currents with the intention of diverting repetitious thought patterns into quieter, more meditative states of mind.
In today's social media frenzied world of instant and constant communication, Loop Yoga provides an outlet for focused intention, tranquility and renewal.
The Elsewhere Project is a collection of photos, representative of culture as interpreted by 10 photographers from around the world. Curated by Lisette Anderson (Sweden).
Each photographer was given a disposable 800 speed camera. These are the unedited images I contributed, taken over the span of a few months in Brooklyn and Arizona.
Work by all involved can be seen here: elsewhereproject.tumblr.com/
