Robots Rule

So, I know this is a photo blog.  And I know these are just doodles.  And really I should just give up on my blog because I think I all of 3 people read this and it's only because the are so unbelievably kind and possibly unbelievably bored.  And I know a few of you know I went on a photo binge lately and went photo taking everyday last week during spring break. (yes, I'm one of those -- but before you think I'm some young High School student, I'm actually NOT and I'm going back after years of working for my graduate degree). Well, long story short, after hours of drawing transistors and looking at lattice structures, I felt like actually drawing. I have "misplaced" my sketchbook somewhere for the last 6 months. Anyway, didn't I already say long story short? I took some photos of a series of sketches. It explores the topic of robotic love/emotion. I hope you enjoy these sketches. thx. (See how I threw in the awesome interwebs lingo to give me that connection to the High Schooler Generation?  Aren't you jelly.).

PS. Promise I'll sort photos and post some soon.

Rules..

1. Never be so into "getting the shot," you forget about the people.  aka don't be a jerk or a butt.
2. Never trust auto mode -- but never forget it's a great guide to start with.
3. Don't be afraid to get low or stand on things.
4. Blurry is in the eye of the beholder...blur == bokeh, movement, excitement, creativity.
5. You'll never be sure...just try.

To be continued for later...

PS. I know I'm not a very exciting writer, and I don't actually enjoy it all that much, but words help to capture too.

Also, as a joke from my coworker, an edit of one of last entries photos.  Made me laugh! =P This is what not being careful while you frame your shots (or not taking the time to crop your photos) will do for you.  

these are a few of my favorite things...

I knew this was going to happen...that "my blog" just wouldn't get updated.

Anywho...here's some photos of my favorite thing...the sky.  (the last photo needs a little cropping...some heads are in the way).

Stolen Image...Voice of a Different Generation

The Stolen Scream: A Story About Noam Galai from FStoppers on Vimeo.

I thought this story was really interesting.  They say that fewer people are taking the time to blog now a days because there are so many people generating content, but no one to read it.  But I thought this story was incredibly impactful because this guy post 5 simple images and it spread across the world.  Yes, sucks that people stole his image and his voice, but it's amazing how his images became a symbol of rebellion.

What does your work say...well about anything?  Who do your images touch?  Who identifies with the things you take photos of?

Why do you take photos?  What brings you joy?  What are you trying to communicate?  What's your story? What's your style?  What's your point?  Blog over.  (yes, I know...no photos from me...=\)
