    The word for the day is simplicity. And Junkstock captures the idea behind that word extremely well with this photo. This image, while containing almost nothing – a few flakes of paint peeling from a worn wall – manages to still present us with age, time, history, a feeling of ancientness. The simple and sparse…

    Hi folks, sorry I haven’t posted anything here lately – the end of the school year brought me the toughest set of exams yet, but I somehow made my way through and now I am an honest to goodness official college graduate, with an AAS degree in Nuclear Technology. So now that school is over…

    In December of 2010, most of North America was presented with the spectacle of a lunar eclipse. It started around 1:00 am, and lasted til around 3:30 am, so I didn’t last til the end, but I did get a few meager shots of it that turned out ok. It was extremely cold, and I…

    The SX-70 is a fascinating little camera made by Polaroid back in the early 70’s. One of the things that makes this camera interesting is that the film it uses, Time-Zero, can be manipulated after the picture is taken using your fingers or other things like pencils or toothbrushes. Even without the manipulation, the film…

    [singlepic id=222 w=320 h=240 float=center] Back in January of this year, I managed to find myself in San Jose, California, on a business trip. It was a great trip. I spent the weekend with my cousin Justin, and had a blast photographing various locations in San Francisco. Here is a shot of the bridge across…

    Hugh Morton was the grandson of Hugh Macrae. If you grew up, or lived for just a little while, in Wilmington, NC, then you’ve probably heard the name Hugh Macrae – at the very least you’ve been by Hugh Macrae Park for a stroll around the pond once or twice. Hugh Morton, among other things,…

    Wayne Belger is, among other things, a photographer. But he doesn’t just grab his twelve megapixel high-end digital camera to shoot. He builds his own. And when I say he builds his own cameras, you better believe he goes the extra mile to make each camera unusual and extraordinary. You see, his pinhole cameras are…

    I have recently been studying Ectokynamics under the tutelage of a mentor who shall remain nameless at this time. Ectokynamics is truly the answer to many of life’s persistent, unanswered questions. Questions such as ‘What were those lights in the sky last night over El Paso?’, ‘Why do I keep thinking I see someone at…

    Now here is something truly amazing. The Boston Globe reports on a set of color photos of the Russian empire from around 1910. How did this happen, you ask? Well… Back in the early 20th century, between 1905 and 1910, Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii, a scientist and a photographer, had the idea of educating school children…

    I found an app called ascii cam that takes a picture and converts it ascii art. Pretty cool. Hmm, for some reason though, the pic is sideways.

    I found an app today for the droid called Vignette. It is extremely powerful for what it does. It’s a camera app, with more effects than you can shake a stick at. Instant film, holga and lomo effects are made dead easy and there is an almost unlimited amount of variations possible, and you can…
