And so it begins with coffee again

No more soup titles from here on out (I think) :(. It was fun while it lasted, but "Story of the Lost Sole" is now over. The finished product was made into a book and a slide show for class. But now its time to start thinking about a new project.

Its been a few weeks since I last updated. I mainly have been preparing my final portfolios for classes and working (sorta) but while doing all this, I have been thinking about my next project. My goal: To work on a project all summer, so I have new things to hang at City Wide next fall.

My first idea was to just continue my within the realm of thought series from a while ago. In fact, its still that but with a twist. Instead of doing all black and white, i would like to incorporate color. No more mamiya for the series :(. Instead it will be digital. BUT! Fun fact. the olympus E-pl2 has a fun feature on it that came in handy for me today. It Keeps the same amount of pixels (12.3 megs to be exact) and compresses them into a 6x6 image. SO! im shooting in square format still, and am not losing pixels! YAAAAY!

So, two new pictures for today (one in color, one in black and white) then i will close with a small gallery of my Plastic carnival pics (i showed some in an earlier post, but I'm gonna have the whole series up now.



So this is where the new series will start: with coffee grounds. Its interesting. My original ideas all started from the shoe with coffee grounds...that looks alot like this image. I found myself wanting to use them again, with that crazy wooden spoon. Water is also something i want to play with as well. I always found it very beautiful when its photographed in a cup or on the background.


Rocks. :) I really like the feel of this image. i'm not quite sure why. It reminds me of harry potter and the half blood prince. Theres a part with rocks in a row. :) haha

SO thats it for today, here is a wonderful gallery, hope you like them

and check back in the coming week to see how the project is going! :)
