my camera is finally fixed by Sherry Krauter with the Golden Touch (copyright?)
however, all of these shots are from before that...anyway, here take a look.

Art. this shot is actually to make my next post have some continuity...to come soon? or maybe a few weeks.

run, run, run!

sometimes, i just want to drive and never stop...go somewhere, anywhere.

hannah, hi.

back of the pick-up, awesomeness.

too many shots of people on this blog, more art needed, yes. ungh.

a lighting demo from the light-master himself, picture of him two down.

man, that's a lot of fucking lights.

I present to you, Allen Vogel, he has lots of tricks in his bag, or cart actually.

bigby

matt, talking about his penis size i think.

ruby.

kate, or some girl name hope, sent me a birthday text.

i don't know why, but the next four pics are steph-related.

the still-life she was shooting, i stole it, and made art.

i had this book out on public restroom photography, i gave it a try...hmm

ad1 lecture, white projection aka art.
and feet, just what i want to see when i go to CLASS.

some olympus guest speakers, ASMP overload!

"'c'mon in!" "you out!?" i laugh every time i see the signs.

some dude passed out.

less people, more art? don't know.

my old ql-17, what a nice camera.

even cooler, on rocco, he's the most well trained dog.

i saw these, and realized that i need a haircut..
accidentally double exposed a few frames.

my grandma, don't get to see her much because i'm in rochester... few more weeks.

hope these kept you entertained for at least a few minutes...they suck for the most part, tri-x 2k and 2500...

bye.

This post is brought to you by Fine Art and Old English.
Apparently since I'm an addie, I don't understand fine art photographs.

I beg to differ in my first picture, there is so much fine art in it, it almost takes the attention from my two main subjects!

shit, you can't be this literal as a fine art photographer!

some fine art product shots.

I hear direct flash makes you fine art.

shooting a fine art photographer makes me fine art? if not, the line in the photograph definitely does.

OE, please contact me if you would like a new ad campaign. Fine Art Styleee!

Oh yeah, shot with a Leica with a little peanut flash.
Peace.

Can't believe i'm back to make a second post...! Well, this is really a teaser, as I have around 14 rolls of b&w sitting around my room that I have not developed yet...I decided to put a roll of expired superia 800 into the camera and go to nyc for the weekend. If these photos were not color, this post would not happen as it would be sitting next to all the other rolls!

I went down to new york/new jersey for the weekend to go to photo shelter and to see my family for my 21st birthday(today the 20th).

Leica is doing well, but the front lens element is loose. Therefore all of my shallow shots are almost always oof. I'm going to keep shooting this busted camera until Sherry (a leica tech) comes up to Rochester in October to fix it.

Planes are awesome.

"This is what you do before you die".
I sat in the emergency exit aisle, and the attendant asked if I would be able to take off the window and throw it out of the plane if anything happened..." uhhh, yeah!

Sky Mall...Listen to Jonathan Coulton's song called SkyMall.
...No, I did not shop at Sky Mall, tempting though.

my school/university.

NYC...Yellow Cabs and people.

Definitely in NYC.

Don't know what happened, but I like how my sister jumped in front of my camera and put up the peace sign...so asian...haha.

This is Tony, Elaine's husband, wow, I have a brother in law now.

The man wouldn't stop laughing.

it smells soo good...

outside of Newark airport before the flight.

Back in Rochester, Madison was modeling for Jonghyup at the house. I decided to finish off the roll...

bye.

I recently acquired a Leica M6 and I have been shooting with it for the past week. Here are some photos from the first two rolls that I processed, tri-x 400 @ 3200, xtol 1:1 24-25 mins. I need to use the camera more, so i can get my focusing down and also learn to use the meter properly.

madison moved up to rochester, i went to visit her at her new place on park ave. beautiful apartment in a great area!

her stuntin' shades, yeah, she looks bitchin'

she got me a present...! jonghyup, underexposed me

this is jonghyup, he's my new roommate since madison isn't moving in anymore. he makes really good art (www.songjonghyup.com) he was also in the s. korea military for two years.

bigby's working on an independent study with defibaugh on highland park diner...with a hasselblad...hahahaha he misses most of his shots! at least his shutter makes an awesome thump sound! get a rangefinder already man...
