Final HomeWork

Well the last set of images are live on the site (LINK) and that's the final weeks homework.

Now what am I going to do with all the spare time I will have..... another hobbie?

Collage for College

Tonight is finished something... Something that was at some point, meant to end

Tonights College was the last week, with all the fun and stress from the last 12 weeks I felt I should do something nice. So I made a little collage and got myself a book in the post.

The book was "Strobist Photo Trade Secrets: Expert Lighting Techniques Volume 1" and I'm hoping will be with me in the next few days.

And the collage ...

Dog In B&W

The other day I was over at my mums place... It was a nice day and we were out in the back garden. Wiley was out and as I had my camera with me I got some shots.

My brother told me that no one had really got any good pics of the mental mut!

But with some tricks I have picked up and a little light room work this is what I ended up with.

Street Hump

Dont really have much to say about this post, I loved this pic I took kjust outside my mums place.

It was shoot in Black&White but as I shoot RAW I can do alot with it, After playing with the colours a bit I really started to like it.

Let me know what you think...

Starbucks Meets Jeff Hardy

I dont know if some of you might remeber about a blog I did a while ago about the new Starbucks logo, but the few that do remember I have something to show you...

Dont you just hate it!

But the trouble is that I keep seeing Jeff Hardy in it, and if your in any doubt..

Something to Finish

I have been looking about for a new book for photography, maybe as a pressy for finishing my course at college.

And I think I might have found it

Cutting down the numbers

Most weeks I just upload the pics that I have finished with for college.

This week I took so many that I wanted to share.

The breff was "Up close and personal" meaning....

• macro
• personal to you
• something about yourself
• really just open to your own interpretation

So being left with almost anything I have come a little crazy with trying for many different things. Trouble is this is on of them weeks where I don't get a day off to work on the project.

the ideas run from working with a nude model with shadows to shooting friends and family in an aggressive pap kinda look (screaming and shoving there hands at the camera)

But so far I have only really done some close ups of personal items from the flat.

Apples and Pears

Well I got the bad news today, Apple did not want me are part of there team.

Frist I was sad, then deprest as I had put so much into getting a job there.

I write a poem about it as well when I was on the bus

"To have a dream, to work for it long and hard. To stress and worry, to fight for every step. To touch a dream with your hand and to hope it be real. To feel a dream within your finger tips . To then have it shattered like a pain of glass, falling from a great hight. To see it drop deeper and deeper into a blackhole. This is how I feel today! This is how my mind make seance of it all. To feel a dream and to see it fall."

But then Fluff and many others said there kind words and it reminded me that I had a life before apple and I still have one now, So what if they dont want me, I can always try again in 6 months or just find somewhere else to work. After all I want to be a pro photographer so anything I do is just to pay the bill, Right!

Fluffs idea to cheer me up... And its kinda working

Sucker for a good movie

Just saw this on The Escapist and I wanted to show it to my readers

Looks like fun don't you think

The Catminator

Last night I downloaded a new app for the Iphone4 called iMovie...

and this is what I ended up with this.

iMovie come on most macs and lets you play edit and make your own movies, On this iPhone it takes video and images and lets you make a timeline to make your own slideshows and short films.

Given you themes and easy to make clips, And even add your own music from your iphone!

I would really recormend this to anyone with an Iphone4 and Ipad2 (I think it runs as well on Itouch G4 but check just in case)
