Winter Park Farmer's Market (Part 2)

This is what's on my mind currently. This video is quite beautiful.

Winter Park Farmer's Market

After I finally figured out how to get my Blackbird, Fly photos to scan properly, I was excited to load it with some slide film and see what would result. So, I got a roll of Velvia 100 and a roll of Velvia 50 (which I am going to get cross processed). brought the camera to Blizzard Beach yesterday, thinking the water would look really nice when shot on slide film. I was too busy having fun on the water slides to get more than a few shots (pretty much of the entrance). Here are some shots from the Velvia 100.

It's a bit strange that I have so many shots of plants and lakes and stuff lately. Nature just happens to be a great source of saturated color.

Lomo Photos

I finally got my film developed. Some photos didn't come out (I need to figure out how much light there needs to be). I bought some B & W film and some 400 speed. Oh, and some of the photos just looked like normal photos, so I didn't post them. I had several with light streaks in the same places. Maybe I didn't tape the camera up well enough. I did use blue masking tape and not black electrical tape, so I might try changing that too. I can't wait to go out and take some more photos.

My Lomo Holga 120N came in the mail today. I haven't the slightest clue of how to use it. But I'll learn the same way I learn everything else, by doing. The plan is to hit up Colonial Photo & Hobby for a few rolls of film this weekend. Of course, I'll put my results up here (good or bad).

Fire in the Sky

There was so much going on this weekend. Friday I met Mimi at the Dali Museum. I think the last time I went I was still in middle school. I've been wanting to get back there for quite a while now. So, I finally made it. I was surprised to see so many people there on a Friday, but I guess a lot of people had the day off.

I spent a couple of night over at Treasure Island on the beach. The view of the fireworks was awesome from the 5th floor. I threw together a comp of a bunch of photos I snapped with my iPhone. The delay on the iPhone camera is pretty horrible. I had to anticipate when the fireworks were going to explode in order to actually catch the image.







I've had It's For You by Out HUD kind of stuck in my head. I kept hearing it when I'd go out, but didn't Shazam it until last week.

IrisBoy Sketch

I was thinking I need to make a new homepage. My website is currently F'ed up since I tried to integrate my blog into it. Now it only loads in Safari for some reason. So, I was sketching last night and came up with this idea. I'd wanted to create another character with camera shutters for eyes. But I found a cool photo of a camera iris with some of the surrounding mechanical parts. I thought maybe it would be cool as a whole face. So, I wanted to start playing around with it.

It's About Time

I haven't updated in freakin' forever. I have gone to figure drawing two weekends in a row! I guess I have been keeping myself busy. And work has been pretty fast paced too. 

So, here is a montage of some figure drawings. I need to find a better camera than the one on my iPhone. It makes the drawings so dense without a flash. I even tried putting the drawings in direct sunlight. It will soon be time to buy a new digi camera. My old one has been on the fritz for quite a while now.
