Eeek guess what! It's the start of my 10 year photography anniversary celebration! Today begins 10 days of giveaways, starting with a free Flickr Pro Account.
I have a lot to celebrate from my journey. And as I thought about all of those things, I thought about this community first and foremost. Flickr is my home, it always has been. I started my career here, I begin my journey with some of you reading this right now...and I owe so much to it. So much. Everything, I daresay.
It's a privilege for me to share my work and be a part of this...this...place. This haven. I've been creating for a decade. A decade of failures and successes, of ups and downs, but if I'm honest, it's been mostly up, and I've been mostly very happy, and I want to give some of that back over the next 10 days.
To win the Flickr Pro Account, comment and let me know how you got your start in creativity.
I started photography on the day I uploaded my first image to Flickr. I went from writing in school to filmmaking in college to photography right after, and I've never looked back. It has been my passion ever since.
yep, it's a kite. weird developing mishap at the photo lab... in case you're wondering, the sky wasn't green that day.
Minolta SRT-101 / Fuji 400
last from this trip to St Davids I think. It seems I managed to squeeze most mileage out of this glorious single evening on this trip.
It was the networking of telephone cables that really added something to this one for me. Enjoy ;)
R isn't allowed to be loose in the house for at least 8 weeks post-surgery. You can see his tether under Shyla's chin. Shyla chooses to snuggle with him in his tethered spot almost all the time. So sweet.
Another from the "vault" series. Took this a month or so ago out at Point Halloran with a good mate of mine. Overlooked this shot the first time, but looking through these shots the second time the DOF on this caught me and I though I might let it see the light of day.

Formation/tree featured on a Michigan coin.
Auxin is synthesized at the shoot tip and helps the cell grow longer. When a tendril comes in contact with a support, auxin stimulates faster growth of the cells on the opposite side, so the tendril forms a coil... like a watch spring... around the support.
That's a wrap!

Above the earth, below the sky.
With all you lies,
you're still very lovable.
Again, from the archives.
I've been looking through old pictures, just because.
My second arm is somewhere behind my body, by the way.
Excerpt from torontobiennial.org:
Sinaaqpagiaqtuut/The Long-Cut is a three-part procession that begins in Kinngait | Cape Dorset, Canada, and continues in Toronto, culminating in an exhibition at 259 Lake Shore Blvd E. Works by youth participants are inspired by Kinngait-Toronto connections and look to the ways these distant places are tethered through waterways, art markets, artistic collaborations, and the night sky.
Sinaaqpagiaqtuut/The Long-Cut is a project by Embassy of Imagination, produced by PA System. It is co-commissioned and co-presented by The Bentway and the Toronto Biennial of Art, and is made possible with generous support from RBC Emerging Artist Program, Canadian North, and the Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation.
Seems I'm on a variations of a theme wagon bender again. I liked the H.I.M so much I decided to try out another one, this time a little more...creepy.
Based in a world of ritual and myth, the Oracle is summoned to give divine prophecies to those who seek them. It speaks without moving its mouth, and sees without eyes. Tethered to a tree, but able to move freely. Has a made up-py sounding mythos cos I literally just came up with this crap.
So let's do away with the fancy talk. The jist of this build is that it is a ritual ground for a being that can see into other worlds, and use this ability to predict the future in its world. It was once a free creature, a being capable of travelling between universes. Until of course someone managed to capture and enslave it, tying it to the universe it currently resides in.
It can only be summoned at night, via a ceremony that must be performed with the utmost care. It emerges from the dark, on the end of a tree branch, twisted and decrepit, and asks what question the summoner wants answered. It then goes into a meditative trance where it combs through universes, seeking an answer. It gives the answer via a story acted out by the black figures in the gold bowls, then retreats back into the darkness, vanished without a trace. Might be related to the Bloodteller from god knows how long ago, who really knows at this point.
Or it can do something and have origins you make up yourself, I dunno.
This was a fun build, got to re-use a few techniques I've used in other builds. Also made a tree which is...well not a first, but it's the first tie I've ever posted a build that includes one. It's a bit shite, but at least it's shrouded in darkness so you can't really tell. Might come back to it to make improvements, but it'll do for now.
That's the lot, be gone with you.
This shot is made up of 8 individual frames blended together rather sloppily in PS. I'll do a better version when there's time.
That feeling of being tied down or restrained. That rope that keeps you from spreading your wings too far.
I've been feeling rather trapped for quite some time....since about last summer actually. I feel like I have no idea which direction my life is supposed to be going in and that I don't even really know what I want. It's my brain that is keeping me tethered more than anything else.....
