SPE

Vaughn Wascovich, from the series Tar Creek, Picher Oklahoma

So i'm in Dallas attending the Society for Photographic Education Conference for the weekend. It's been nice so far, the review I had earlier was interesting and insightful. Hopefully I will have a few more... My colleagues are receiving awards later today in a ceremony- Vaughn Wascovich for his Tar Creek work and Kevin Malella for his Constructed Landscapes work. Both are exceptional landscape photographers and are extremely deserving for their hard work and dedication to their subjects. The weather here has been less than awesome. It is warm and everything is very green but I think I've seen the sun for a total of 5 or 10 minutes.
Dallas is weird. Very modern architecture but very sparsely populated in downtown. It seems like the only people in downtown at night are the people at our conference.

New Project in SPE

This is my new video piece that will be in the Society for Photographic Education video show that will be here. I'm pretty psyched about it. If you're in Dallas on Saturday, the 28th come on down and see it! it runs from 8-9pm and midnight-1am.

a project & a site for it.

Yes, the website has finally been revamped and the new project is up. There's about 16 photos on there right now. A few more will be put up as I get done editing them. I'll be shooting for another month. The thesis show will be up at the Glass Curtain Gallery in May. It's crunch time.

more to come...

winter trip

I've been in TN shooting for the past week. I spent the weekend in Nashville and have since been in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The scenery and weather have been great, much warmer than Chicago... I got a great rental car with a mad discount and have discovered the wonders of Sirius satellite radio. New pics will be up asap. Hopefully a new and improved home website will be following...

pixel degradation

These are from a side project I've been working on in a class I'm taking with Brian Ulrich entitled "The Medium is the Message". The class' focus is really about everything within photography that can't be printed on paper, specifically, working within a digital medium. It may not be a side project for very long though... people seem to like them.
