Now, officially running two weeks strong, here’s your Photo of the Day re-post for the week of April 19th, 2009.
Sunday, April 19th, 2009 – My Heart Beat
I took this photo in 2007 on nothing more than my Sony Cybershot while bored on a griff playing World of Warcraft. I tweaked it a bit in Photoshop and it quickly became on of my signature shots. I’ve used it for avatars, birthday presents and even hung it on the wall in my own home. My homage to now “indispensable” technology, my heart beat.
Monday, April 20th, 2009 – Applegate as Crystalsong
More strongly tied to World of Warcraft, this photo is my homage to the most recent expansion for the game. The place is real, a bend in the Applegate River in Southern Oregon. With post processing, this is as close to a “real life” Crystalsong Forrest as I’m ever gonna get.
Tuesday, April 21st, 2009 – Ruffles
“Ruffles” is one of the first photos I ever took on my Canon Rebel Xti. Just a fresh and fun little summertime moment.
Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009 – Death of a Gummi
In 2008 I became obsessed with Lomos after reading an article in the September 2008 issue of Popular Photography. The article explained how to digitally replicate a Lomo photo. This photo was one of my Lomo trials. Not particularly Lomo-ish, it still came out with a great quality, and is one of my most viewed photos on Flickr.
Thursday, April 23rd, 2009 – Hearts, Stars and Blue Jeans
Taken in 2007, this photo was a simple and abstract representation of my personality, by way of my jeans. (That’s real Sharpie on them there blue jeans baby!) No photoshopping here.
Friday, April 24th, 2009 – Smile
This is a fresh photo just taken on Thursday. I was lucky enough to spend a late afternoon with my pal Claire. A beautiful girl with a charming smile, this photo was taken candidly when she wasn’t expecting, thus the fabulous, honest smile.
Saturday, April 25th, 2009 – Holding
“Holding” is also a fresh photo from this last Thursday. Color burnt sky, saturated and punched grass with a delicate arm holding some dainty flowers. I think this is one of my new favorites.
