as I always say when I post something on here. God, it's been so long.

But it really has this time, and I am trying to post more, I really am, but I am in a photo Journalism class which is eating all of my creativity, and very little that comes out of it is good enough to post, because really it's a class to test your ability to make deadlines, not take pictures.

But, anyway, enough of my ranting, check out the new untitled picture.


I just bought a Holga, so I'm hoping that will help to fuel my creativity. I plan on taking it EVERYWHERE with me once I get it, and I mean EVERYWHERE. I will never put it down. I am so excited. I bought it from some company in Europe, though, Lomography, so I probably won't be getting it for a while... express delivery said (a week ago) that if you used it then you would be "guaranteed to get it before christmas", and I did not use that, so I may very well not get it until January... Oh well, exciting anyway.

so, the post everyday thing TOTALLY fell apart this summer. I guess I have more discipline (or perhaps more reason for my discipline to be diverted to this blog) during the school year.


well, after a long long long long, LONG, time here it is, a picture.

My aunt suggested I take these pictures. I'm really glad she did. They ended up looking great.

Let me know which one is your favorite, I'm going to submit it (along with the ones from my last couple posts: the camera, and the starbucks cup) to my high school's literary and arts magazine.

I feel bad I haven't done anything for this in a long while, well I have a good reason, I've been working on an application for a Photo Journalism class at my school. It's basically a photography class, the whole "journalism" aspect is just there to confuse. Basically I want to be in it because 1) I love photography (obviously) and 2) I will learn to process film in a darkroom! How exciting!


so, here are pictures of my photojournalism application. the basic assignment is decorate a paper bag, I think they just want to know you have some creativity in you or something.

(closer shot of clouds, also a really good judge of what the colors actually look like, in the others it seems distorted)

Well, let me know what you think, either on here or on Flickr.

Thanks.
