I was talking with a visitor of my neighbor who spotted me not long ago in the middle of a meadowland with my photocamera. Wanted to know what I was looking for and so I told him. Than he surprised me with telling me about the most beautiful spots, sharing his secrets. So, whenever you read this...: THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!! I had the most wonderful evening spirit walk! Gonna do it many more times, I'm sure of it!

Kinetic: Relating to, caused by, or producing motion.
These are called “Kinetic” photographs because there is motion, energy, and movement involved, specifically my and the camera’s movements.
I choose a light source and/or subject, set my camera for a long exposure (typically around 4 seconds), focus on my subject and push the shutter button. When the shutter opens I move the camera around with my hands...large, sweeping, dramatic movements. And then I will literally throw the camera several feet up into the air, most times imparting a spinning or whirling motion to it as I hurl it upward. I may throw the camera several times and also utilize hand-held motion several times in one photo. None of these are Photoshopped, layered, or a composite photo...what you see occurs in one shot, one take.
Aren’t I afraid that I will drop and break my camera? For regular followers of my photostream and this series you will know that I have already done so. This little camera has been dropped many times, and broken once when dropped on concrete outside. It still functions...not so well for regular photographs, but superbly for more kinetic work.

Bang on time, another pair of monarch butterflies emerged from their cocoons this morning, minutes before I recorded the event. In the pot are the remnants of the milkweed plant that nurtured them as caterpillars.

Another working day has ended.
Only the rush hour hell to face.
Packed like Lemmings into Shiny metal boxes.
Contestants in a suicidal race.
A reconstructed clockwork?
Interestingly, an orange and a red box break the color scheme.

This flower abstract was made using the reverse lens macro technique. This time, I used my 10-24mm lens mounted backwards on my camera....this gets you so close, it's like another world :)
I'm always happy when I can combine my love of flower photography with my love of abstracts!
STRATEGIC SYNCHRONICITY
FUTURA - Pioneer of the American Urban Art Movement
Comes to LA for First Ever Solo Show
When: Thursday September 18th 2008 – Sunday September 21st, 2008
Where: Phantom Galleries LA at the Pacific Electric Lofts 610 S. Main St. Downtown LA, 90014
Preview for the Downtown LA Art Walk 6-10pm September 11, 2008
DowntownArtWalk.com
KRUNK presents, Strategic Synchronicity – an incredibly rare four-day event featuring the first ever LA solo-show by the internationally acclaimed graffiti artist & true pioneer of the American Urban Art movement – Futura. This once in a lifetime event starts on Thursday September 18th and will only continue until Sunday September 21st (in a secret location in Downtown LA). Then it's gone.
This, as perhaps Futura's most anticipated body of work ever, will showcase his extraordinary talent with a range of original canvases and drawings. Fans and art collectors will have a narrow window of opportunity to purchase original Futura art, with prices starting from $1,500 and upwards. The exhibition will not only showcase his new work but will also take a genuinely evolving organic form - a work in progress. This will be a truly historic occasion for fine art and street culture in the U.S. and should not be missed.
"LA was an obvious destination for me to showcase this collection. The city has so many incredible creatives who I consider as friends and whose work I respect enormously. It's about time I hit LA particularly with this collection. Above all, I'm looking forward to having some fun presenting AND creating this new work in LA." Futura
What to expect: Futura's past experience merges with his vision of the future, combining his tendency towards meticulous precision with his trademark free-flowing spraycan techniques. His art appears effortless in its abstraction with commentary on themes such as 'space' and 'the future' and his interpretation of 'the present'. Those lucky enough to be present might spot an 'old friend' in his work (perhaps for the last time?) as well as some incredible advancements and developments of his art form:
Futura has always had a keen interest and somewhat of an obsession with the latest technologies, so expect to see canvases stretched onto aluminium (in order to prevent warping due to environmental factors), pieces complemented by specifically devised music scores and film trials and much more.
"I consider this collection my best work yet, when I started on it I could feel myself about to explode. All these years of development and it reflects my growth and evolution. I want this work considered on its merits….and in that sense, I'm going right back to the beginning." Futura

Feeding the Fish at the Gadget Show Live 2010
These guys were amazing with their light show they performed at the Gadget Show Live 2010 at the NEC in Birmingham. I could not resist in taking some shots.
This one was post edited using Topaz Adjust 4 which is an amazing program.
Here is their website www.feedingthefish.com/
Information
The Gadget Show is a British television series focusing on technology and is broadcast on Five. Originally a thirty minute show, it was extended to forty-five minutes, then later to one hour. The theme tune used is "In The Machine" by Barrie Gledden. Repeats have also aired on the digital channel Fiver and the satellite channel Bravo as well as Five's Internet on-demand service Demand Five. In Australia, it is aired on The Lifestyle Channel.
Each week, the show previews and reviews the latest gadgets, and broadcasts the latest technology news. The show is aimed at giving the mass consumer an insight into the gadget world and in addition, it aims to give enough information for the more "geeky" or knowledgable audience, but still making it accessible to the more casual viewer. The show has featured Blu-ray Discs, video cameras, MP3 players and other technologies. A segment showing viewers how to get the most out of their technology is also often included along with a competition to win anything from £5,000 to £28,000 worth of new gadgets. Each series usually contains a special episode focusing on a particular technology conference or expo. Past conferences include CeBIT and The Next Fest.
Series 5 saw a slight tweak in the format, with the three presenters hosting from a studio base, although a lot of the show still takes place outside of the studio. The studio sections are filmed at The Custard Factory on Gibb Street in Birmingham, UK. A recurring theme in the updated format is a regular challenge between Jason and Suzi (and occasionally Jon and / or Ortis), typically set around particular gadget(s) and their testing or use based around it. Another addition is that now the week's main featured gadget(s), typically reviewed by Jon, is given a 'G rating' from one to five. The seventh series, which started on 29 October 2007, saw the running increased to one hour. From series 8, there is also a new "Top 5" feature which consists of the Top 5 gadgets in a certain category. At the start of the eleventh series, a new item was introduced, called the "Wall of Fame" where Ortis or Suzi and Jason pick their favourite gadget from a particular category that they think changed the face of modern gadgetry, and then Jon picks the one to win and go up on the wall. There are also several other recurring features (such as 'Top 5' - looking at the best products from various categories; and 'The Focus Group' - testing products with various groups of people, who vote for their best one) which are featured in episodes on a semi-regular basis.
The show also offers a competiton, (answering a multiple choice question, by phone, SMS or postal entry) that gives the winner on some occasions up to 180 prizes.
For 2010, the programme received a rebrand centred on the typeface "Museo". This included refreshed titles and break bumpers.
Also in 2010, the show will be seeing the release of a supporting magazine called 'The Gadget Show Magazine'.
i am proud of this wonderful cake i baked and decorated for a friend of mine's birthday. i hadn't baked in several years! i used this amazing all natural organic chocolate cake/frosting mix i got at a natural foods store. so yummy. no corn syrup or hydrogenated oils...just natural ingredients for cake like they used to bake in the olden days...much tastier and healthier than the fake stuff!
Thinking of a tiltle when The Police song "Every Breath You Take" sprang to mind.
I have always enjoyed the melody and lyrics, so why not :-)
Album: Synchronicity
Genre: Pop, Rock, New Wave
Released: 1983
This song was originally thought to be about angels, government, parents, or people that want the best for us. But actually, the lyrics seems the words from a sinister, controlling character, who is watching every move we make. Sting, the singer, said about this song: “…I think I was thinking of Big Brother, surveillance and control…”. The song reached #1 on the UK charts for four weeks and also it was #1 on the US Billboard Music Charts for eight weeks. “Every Breath You Take” ranks #84 on the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time (by Rolling Stones magazine) and #25 on Billboard’s All Time Top 100.
