2/3 DSLR crop
I've been cropping my vertical photos using a 5:7 crop ratio, and it seems to be more pleasing. The 3:2 DSLR format when shooting vertically appears to be long tall. Its hard to have a pack the frame with the subject and interesting backdrop in such a long format.
I'm thinking about a mask for the viewfinder so that I'm framing to this 5:7 format. and one for a square format too. Gotta look into this a bit.
Update:
I did some digging around and it seems like it should be easy to take out the viewfinder. So then all it would take is some paper, maybe parchment paper affixed in some way to the screen on both left and right sides and that'd be that.
We'll see.

funny or disturbing?
I pushed the tray so that it was in the pic. not sure why. Just thought it was funny.

Contrast test. Normal versus +1
I kicked myself for taking most of my shots in +1. So much shadow detail is lost.
I'm setting it to normal from now on

another one for week 2
at a fast food place that I promise I will NEVER go back to. turns my stomach to think about what we ate there.
ok, probably overreacting but it will definitely be at least a year before I go back there.

road-wearied road-warriors
As I wrote in the caption:
Another new project in the making. something about lonely cars and stopping the action so inexplicably is interesting to me. going to ponder this some more.

Another selection from Ms Bush's bathroom series
the tiles are a luscious shade of deep green and I love that she is lit from the corner and almost fades to black.
another sample of bathroom pic from my archive
not the best photo in the world – It was hard to try and make the graffiti scratchings readable.
Weekly photo project - Bathrooms!
Inspired in part by Brittney Bush and her series of bathroom self-portraits, I'm starting a new project posting one photo a week of self-portraits in bathrooms all around Chicago. We'll see how far I get. I'll try and post detailed location info and other relevant details.
More samples in subsequent post. (I have not figured out how to put more than one pic in a blog post.)

Hello! A good time as any to start this
A short note to start this blog. I'm thinking it will be a venue to talk about my photo related experiments and other thoughts on art and culture.
