These are just some random images that have fallen through the cracks the last few months. Some of them are rejected 365 Day Photo Challenge options. Some are just from my every day life. More from this random set next Wednesday.

Dissimilitude This project was to take some pictures with the High Contrast Monochrome setting on the Alpha 35. I probably don’t play with this setting enough. More pictures from The Dissimilitude Series: If you are wondering, I don’t know the chick in the last picture in front of Gaslamp. She… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #97

It lessens the need for a tripod in low light situations because if… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #94

Not really sure why I entitled this journal entry Guy’s Night because it isn’t as if this group of friends has a shortage of Guys’ Nights. However, it has been awhile since Jesse, Willy, Jay (unpictured party pooper), and I have spent a night in the woods communing with nature,… Read More »Guys’ Night

Pinhole Experiment Here are some of the more intriguing images to come off the first roll of film from the pinhole camera. For some reason I felt compelled to buy some filters for the pinhole camera.
