“Roses are red, violets are blue, I’m schizophrenic, and so am I.”

Red has more personal associations than any other color. Recognized as a stimulant, red is inherently exciting and the amount of red is directly related to the level of energy perceived. Red draws attention and a keen use of red as an accent can immediately focus attention on a particular element.

Green dress

Test shots. Green dress, manual focus lenses. Used here: mamiya 80mm on a tilt/shift adapter, lensbaby 2.0 with 4-5.6 aparture ring. 32″octabox without a diffusion on a boom. Just can’t seem to get it perfectly strait and symmetrical to fake that beauty dish look a bit better.

Random

Randomness has somewhat differing meanings as used in various fields. It also has common meanings which are connected to the notion of predictability (or lack thereof) of events.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines ‘random’ as “Having no definite aim or purpose; not sent or guided in a particular direction; made, done, occurring, etc., without method or conscious choice; haphazard.” This concept of randomness suggests a non-order or non-coherence in a sequence of symbols or steps, such that there is no intelligible pattern or combination.

Grandparents

“What children need most are the essentials that grandparents provide in abundance. They give unconditional love, kindness, patience, humor, comfort, lessons in life. And, most importantly, cookies.” ~ Rudolph Giuliani

Wannabe location scouting

I had this great idea today. It was about doing some location scouting and testing the gear all in one go. Turns out She wasn’t so much into it, as you can probably tell from the pictures :) Nevertheless, got some good test shots and tried out my 32″ octabox without a diffusion.
