Image made while traveling on business and killing time on the weekend by going to the local zoo. Image made with my old Olympus e-620 with the Zuiko 40-150mm kit lens. Converted to mono in On1 Photo RAW 18 because I made this image before I understood the value of RAW and the .jpg was just a little too noisy in color to my taste.

This is one of those days where I keep setting the tea to steep, then forgetting about it. My PiXiu tea beast has gotten a lot of tea "offerings" today due to oversteeping.
I love the intimacy that you get when you photograph nature. Enclosing the scene within a frame really brings you into the picture and the closer you get the more intimate the experience.
In my photos, I feel like I created self portraits that identify how I feel about myself, especially the one taken in the tub. I believe it shows a reality of isolation, and how I feel about myself. I used my makeup light that creates a strong LED white light and shined it against my white walls/tub/shower curtains as I sat in the tub, and took a picture of myself with the camera propped up on a tripod and shot landscape with it pointed at me. The studio was used with the same camera/tripod but with me standing up, there being a butterfly-positioned softbox shining in front of me. Both were taken with me facing directly at the camera. I just wanted to take a genuinely good photo of myself, and I wanted to try more abstract/expressive motions on a later portrait. I wanted to convey my genuity, but also how I feel that I have to be in a certain pose to perfectly capture who I am, and that I want to break that predetermined posing by being myself later on.
It’s a process, I think. I didn’t really think about what my image would be rather than what it looked like in the camera, but I guess just an honest photo of me without any concealing parts of my face. I wanted to have fun with it because it’s a challenging thing to do and it ended up being really enjoyable and an experiment for me. I learned what lighting looks good for my facial structure and what ones need some more tweaking on, and what kind of moods or emotions I could convey or tell a story through my gestures with just a photo. I also realized that clothes can honestly tell what kind of person you are, too, with my own pictures. I really enjoyed the experience this project gave me because I never really liked how pictures portrayed me, and the first time I’m in control I can choose how I look.
Sony a7s w/ Minolta 1.4 50mm // Shooting with a friend at the Metro station on Wilshire and Vermont Metro station.
After reading a discussion in The GIMP users' group about "split toning" I decided to give it a go.
I created quite a contrasty b&w of the original, added some film grain and then this split-tone script. it's quite a strange effect, but I think I like it.
Indulge me to present another puppy portrait which Chris shot and I did a little editing on. Chris said that this was her favorite of the ones that I worked on. Let me know what you think (the good, the bad, and the ugly)
Some of the first wild flowers are starting to appear now near where I live. This is a split-toned, macro image of a Colt's-Foot.

Adox CHS 25 developed in Rodinal 1+50 for 8 minutes. Digital split-tone.
They are called "bebe" in Filipino. Ducklings. I observed they go about in groups and watch each other 's back.
My first attempt at sliding those sliders for Sliders Sunday. Not as easy as I thought, but fun. ;-)
HSS, everyone!
Captured on Queen St in downtown Toronto. A group of photographers, all trying to photograph these guys, who were very aware of us. The window was very colourful, but the building was in serious decay - I thought this treatment best reflected the actual scene.
From a 3-shot handheld HDR with tone mapping in Photomatix Pro 4.2 and split toning in CS5.
This little old man didn't have much, but he was happy doing what he was doing.
