One of us is a voyeur
The only reason I was working with a model was because we sort of had to, for the class I was taking. It was weird and uncomfortable and intimidating at first. By the time we were done, it was still all of those things, but I’d powered my way through.
One of my photography friends, who took the same class a year before I did, was so inspired by the day of working with models that she’s headed off in an interesting new direction with an infrared camera and nude models underwater. Her work is stunning.
Me? Nope. I’m sticking with the usual stuff. But I just wanted to show my loyal reader(s) that I could, too, shoot models. In case any of you had been wondering.

On the subject of waiting
I almost never arrange a shot. My subjects usually just show up in front of me/the camera.
This is a rare exception, from last summer’s photography class. I am pretty sure I was going for something profound, and am just as sure that I failed to achieve it. But, still, it shows what kind of lighting you can achieve with a iPhone, placed strategically in a dark closet.

That first step…
Like they say, that first step is bad. After that, though, you ought to be fine.

3 vehicles
I was sort of impressed the way the two cars and that old trailer arranged themselves, all with more or less the same slant. Way to go, random vehicles!

Construction Debris
This building used to be the county jail. Before too much longer, it’ll be the admin office for the county sheriff, a change that seems symmetrical in a way.
About this time last year, I got to go inside for a look around. It looked like this, which is probably a lot more dramatic than it looks now!
