Howdy the names Aaron, and this is my attempt at taking a photo a day and posting it here for everyone to see starting january 1st 2010. I know, I know it’s not original.
UPDATE: Ok, so I'm not getting one out everyday anymore. But hey at least I'm still working at it!
Bit about me and my life of creating images... I’ve been taking photos well back into the days of film. I’ve spent a couple years shooting only black and white and developing in the dark room and loved it. Fast forwarding to the days of the pixel I’ve since abondoned film and have gone all digital (Sorry film! I will always love you, I’ve been seduced by the instant gradification).
Recently I’ve been becoming obsessed with studio and strobist lighting.
Camera and glass...
Lighting etc...
Goodies I like to use...
So here's another totally unoriginal idea I always thought was cool, so I thought I would give it a whirl. In between some of the shots my cat came and helped out by drinking some of the milk. Thanks Tator.
This is an image from an old bronze printing plate. Looking at the plate you can't see the image very well so I shot a flash very close and parallel to the plate and look what showed up!
Down the road from our place we have this awesome grocery store with a really weird name. My wife's parents adopted a cat that was found around the area and named it Plaza Super Jet. Pretty sweet cat.
This was a popular camera back in the early 1900's and was pretty revolutionary at the time. I'm sure people thought... Wow what a small portable camera, can't get much better than this!
I was inspired to take a photo like this because of the video game Modern Warfare 2. I Had to take quite a lot of shots to get the gun and my face just right. I think I look pretty crazy, so I think I hit the mark. Sorry camera for pointing a gun at you. It wasn't loaded, I promise!
