I take tiny things…

I’m leaping forward in this post beyond at least one much needed update but found it easier to upload these photographs at the moment. Thanks to the IRS this year I had a lovely tax refund and purchased a mildly needed macro lens to help round out my equipment. I picked up the Sigma 105mm f2.8 with a Kenko 7 2x teleconverter from KEH. I purchased them used… and they look a thousand times better than a few pieces of my glass I apparently am a terrible parent to my lenses. Anyways, I took pwetty pictures in the cemetery up in Bainbridge, GA with Ansley Simmons this past Wednesday.

A brief update from my roommate Kyle..

Kyle wished me to put forth the following information;

Eric Nylund’s new novel, Mortal Coils, will be available for purchase on the 3rd of February, 2009. Nylund is an author in the sci-fi and fantasy fields, having written Signal to Noise (no, not the Gaiman/McKean one) and many of the novelizations of the Halo series. If you follow the link above or surf to www.ericnylund.net, you can find out more information on both the author and his upcoming work.

And a brief update for myself…

The Boyce Avenue shoot that was supposed to go down at the end of the month has been pushed back to late February/early March. They will be out of the country, being wildly successful and making me horribly envious. However, when they get back, I’ll be heading down to Sarasota to take some pretty pictures of the boys. Having given up on the idea of a photography group a few years back with “Get the hell out of Tallahassee”, I’ve decided to give it another go with “Mr. Mazza’s Magical Mystery Tour.” So, productivity is my new goal this year. And if anyone has any interest, look me up on Facebook and join our little group. I’m like the silent bus driver who used to leer at you on the way to school. Leer.

Laying about in the day and the dark…

An update. Small but significant. Pieced together from the relatively recent photo shoot, a new collage. I’m currently finishing a long standing obligation and will soon spawn a multitude of mad projects.

Forthcoming projects… Boyce, Tigger, Nikki, Jesus and my inane returning prose. Beware.

I can’t find my cell phone this morning…

Just uploading a quick update featuring a new collage that I feel is nearly finished. The lettering works, I think, but I’m also feeling I may have overloaded the images and overcomplicated the collage. Comments and criticism are welcome as I don’t think I’ll be able to upload this on Facebook without repercussions. I will be uploading another collage in the next few days, hopefully. I’m attempting to go smaller in the blind faith that college students will spend a twenty on a piece of art, rather than simply buying postcards from me.

 

 

Oh, and a minor side note. I might be heading down to Sarasota towards the end of the month for a shoot with Boyce Avenue. Nothing confirmed yet and considering how unattentive and irresponsible I am, who knows :-/ Anyways, more updates in a few days.

EDIT:

And popping up an earlier version of the collage this morning to show a less complicated image. I’m torn…
