I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection.
‘Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death.

“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.

Forest

We need the tonic of wildness…At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.

Window light

Window light is some of the best lighting in the world.
It is soft, it’s magical, and best of all, it is free. Find a scene lit only by window light and see what you can do with it. Take a portrait by window light. Or just let the light wash over a classic “bowl of fruit” still life. No matter what, you will learn why photographers have been relying on window light for years to create beautiful images.

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.
