Photo Book

So I have created a Photo Book.  I went with the Apple Books.  I am very pleased with the quality of the prints. However some adjustments must be made on my part.  Overall I think the experience was wonderful.  Here are some of the photos I was working with.

Making a photo book


This week I got together the pictures for my Photo Book.  This book will show some personal photos of hands of my friends and family. The file for the book was sent away to be made on Monday.  I have never done a photo book before so I am anxiously waiting to see the final results. Here are some of the photos I was working with.

PUBLIC showing

Last Thursday my Photo Art class performed our first public showing of our work outside of the University.

                                                               Here is one of 4 posters.



                                                     Here is my project call Happy Hour


The show was a success based from the response I received.  I think I now have the confidence to pursue other projects of this nature.

Photo Scout


The pictures below show potential locations for some future photo shoot.  There are some very interesting spots here in Lethbridge Industrial Area that seems to come alive at night even with hardly anyone around.  There is certainly an element of excitement.  I recommend exploring with company and a light kit when shooting at night.  If you are interested in these locations let me know

PICTURES IN THE DARK

Here are some experiments that I am working on.  These photos were taken with a very long exposure and time lapse in the dark.  A colour flash light was moved around in the space to illuminate and create these effects. I am very fascinated by this.  With some more practise I will be able to create more controlled a precise effects. Stay tuned.

Colours of the week

This week I will explore the significance of colour in our environment along the lines of social identity, desire and space.  I choose to use black and white. These are technically not colours, but pigments one containing all colours while the other is a void of colour.  Black and white polarize our world. They create strong clear divisions socially and mentally.

Young Warriors.

I was driving along one afternoon.  The truck in the opposite lane was move slowly towards me.  Suddenly a hand came out the windows with a gun pointing at me.  Panic ensued, should I duck under the dash? Serve to the right or sallow hard and pray. About to do all three, too late the trucking is passing.  Silly me it was only a kid playing with a made to look real toy gun. Seven Eleven to my rescue I knew they had clean wash rooms.
