EXPLORE #1!!! highest, Thank You GREAT WAY TO PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE

This was inspired by RosieHardy, the picture and the editing, and if you don’t know her your really really should.

Lately I’ve been just I don’t know expected to do things and it just feels like if it wasn’t for a few people I’d be no where so they are my little strings
BIG STRINGS

I guess, first of all… no stealing this photo. copyright me, WB records… blah blah blah.

Andrew’s my favorite person to shoot. This is my second shoot with him, I’ll be posting the other one once the October Alternative Press Magazine comes out.

This is just a quick edit and post to flickr, I wanted to get a shot up. I haven’t looked at all the shots from this shoot yet. Nose seems to have a tiny hot spot, otherwise I think it’s solid. Hot side on the edge of the face doesn’t bother me.

second… first photo shoot with pocketwizards and my new (used) 5D.

8X neutral density filter (so I could open my aperture even when shooting studio strobes)
50mm f1.8 lens
Canon 5D

three alien bee lights. I might put strobist info up if I feel like posting it to the strobist pool… but I may wait and see if there’s a better photo from the shoot for it.

I think the settings are in the exif data down in "more properties"

Please view this photo as ridiculously large as you can. I uploaded a 2000×1333 (which is what, 1/4, 1/5 of the size of the original?) version HERE

a twilight that was ours - 25 Aug 2008 - Flickr

before you, my life was like a moonless night. very dark, but there were stars — points of light and reason… and then you shot across my sky like a meteor. suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. when you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. i couldn’t see the stars anymore. and there was no more reason for anything. (sm)

26/52 I used to be pretty clear on what was real & what I made up… - 26 Aug 2008 - Flickr

but with everything going on in the world, none of that seems to matter, so I just decided to talk less & smile to myself more, so as not to add to the general confusion.
