Welcome to my neighborhood Christine


I've seen Christine for the past 3 years. She usually walks around downtown with a shopping cart and a baseball bat. I've asked people about her and they warned my to stay away. She's given up her shopping cart and has set up camp in some bushes at Moore square a block away. I had a cancellation the other day and walked up to the park, I took my Neighborhood Portfolio with me and told her about my project. She was into it and a joy to photograph. I use my hard light technique, maybe not the best idea, Christine had alot of shine going on. I;m still going through all the files.

Editorial


Up at Duke the other day shooting some images for The Scientist Magazine. The images had a funny crop size and need alot of room for reversed out type and a copy box. I tried some colored gel shots but the microscope room was very small. The stuff theses guy's are working on is so over my head I won't even try to explain it.

Dropping off files


I always like dropping off files when my client is downtown. I can grab my camera and do a leisurely stroll around the city.

More Cancer Survivors


More work with Cancer Survivors and other shots. It's always great to be around people with such an upbeat and positive attitude.

Will it fit ?


Doing some test to see if a set will fit in the studio. Felt like I was on Myth Busters (one of the best shows on tv) with my small scale model test. I think the set will fit.

TV data crunch


Another TV project and 177 GB of information. I make the mistake of working off my start up drive and when I came in the next morning my computer crashed with only 30 megs left ......... Oops ........ I day to shoot and 2 days to process.

Survivors and stuff


Working on some images of cancer survivors and web banners. The set changed from shot to shot.
