I feel like I took the easy way out today. I reused the mini paper landscape for the silhouette. I also reused a sunset photo on a monitor as a background.

My wife is having her tattoos removed. After several sessions, one of the two tattoos is almost gone. The other one is getting there, but will still need several more treatments.
I grabbed this photo during her latest session at extink.

A friend of mine goes all out with the decorations at christmas. This is a shot of him building a new light person for the front yard.

Well, this photo was a lucky accident from earlier in the day. The shot I was trying to make happen did not work out, at all. I was hoping to get a decent shot of some christmas lights lastnight, but the gorpo did not capture what I hoped it would. Oh well, shooting photos with the gopro is sort of guess work anyway.

photo number 16 in a month long photo project

I stuck with the gopro theme again today.  Using the wifi backpack and phone app, it was pretty easy to set up a self portrait.

I'm a day late posting this shot. I decided to watch that 

zombie show instead of processing a photo.

This one came together while discussing a different photo idea. There will be another image that involves this mask, and it will be awesome!

- the 8th photo from a 30 day project -

Nothing too special about the subject, just needed something to test a lighting idea. 

The white shades are from an older project that never really ended.

the 7th image from a 30 day photo project

I'm not sure what sparked the idea of photographing a two dimensional paper cut out, but I like where it went. First, I had to come up with the idea for the scene, then figure out the scale of it. After that I sketched it up and cut it out. 

The lighting came together really well, I thought. I used two lights, one for the background/moon and an another for the paper scene. The paper scene was lite from underneath. I used a couple of  green gels to give the trees some color.  

This was the first time trying this sort of thing, but I had fun with this one.

day number two of the 30 day project:    The aquarium at Fort Fisher

I couldn’t decide on just one image 

check out more from the project

An image a day - part 2

Two years ago I put together a month long, daily image project. I figured it would be fun to try  again,  so for the month of November I will capture, process and post an image daily.  I’m a day late posting the first image, but I promise it was captured 11/01/12.

The first image was shot pretty late in the evening. After a long day at work and driving three and half hours to Carolina Beach, I was a little tired and looking to make something happen pretty quickly. After walking out to the beach and seeing the moon, it was pretty easy to come up with a rough idea of an image. 

After image capture I hit a bit of a hiccup. The only computer I had access to didn’t have photo editing software that recognized Nikon raw files. Luckily there is a wifi connection at the condo, so I downloaded a trial version of lightroom 4. (lightroom 4 rocks!)  

Anyway, here is the first image of 30 images to come this month.
