ok...I have started to get bored. I don't know if it is with my own work or the end of the school year and the inundation of photography 1 photographs or what but I want to be dazzled! I want to see something new. Something that will just blow me off my feet. So.... I have decided to hold a contest.

Who: Whoever reads this!
What: Any photograph that is different. Show me your best image. It does not have to be something new. It can be from the depths of your gallery or you could have shot it today...I don't care. But I want to see something amazing. Something different. Only photography please. Minor manipulations ok (color and contrast slight adjustments, dust correction...etc.)
When: June 17, 2008 - July 23, 2008
How: send me a note with a thumbnail of your image.
What you can win: a 1 year subscription or a couple of 8x10 prints from me

Show me what you've got. If you have any questions let me know!

had an interesting conversation with one of my students today. he asked me if I feared death. I said no. maybe it is what I believe in. I don't know. I am happy with how my life has turned out. and I would like to think that I have made a difference in somones life along the line. I think that is one of the reasons that I am not afraid.....u?

I have not done this in a while and there is so much good work out there that I thought people should be recognized for the work they do....

so for anyone who reads my journal.....

ENJOY!!!!

The other day I was talking to a co-worker about specializing in art, photo...etc. It was a rather interesting conversation because she could not believe that there was not one type of photograph that I enjoyed taking more than another. I found it interesting and it is something that I have always come up against. I am a photographer. As long as I have a camera in my hand I am a happy person. What do you all think? I don't know if I am necessarily better at one type of photograph than another so I just classify myself as a photographer...not a portrait photographer, not a landscape photographer....etc.

ps...if you had not noticed...new work...more coming...let me know what you think!

I find myself wanting to shoot again! not myself! even though I think that would be good too. I have shot some new polas as well as some digital from myrtle beach. was working on long exposures and movement. looking forward to seeing what I got.
