projects that i have been working on recently are completed!!



completed!

i now have my second draft photos up on flickr, which will be be updated often. also, i have merch available at zazzle.com. and also, i have prints available for sale. all of these are linked to from my photo site, but i'll put some links at the end of this post.

the other two things that i finished up are putting like buttons on my photo site, and setting up a "page" on facebook for my photos.

it feels really good to get so many things finished. but somehow, i find myself drawn into another 3 big projects in the next couple of weeks, and these actually have deadlines! it all seems to be happening at the same time, in a whirlwind of synchronicity! i'll post about them when i can, or check the facebook page.

facebook page
merch
my photos on flickr
photographs by hikaru (prints are also available for sale here)

that is all (for now).

i'm working on a lot of things right now, trying to get my web presence going in a lot of different areas. it's difficult, frustrating, and stressful, but i should have a lot of new, good things going pretty soon.

stand by for updates.

i was lucky enough to get 2 new cameras recently:

a polaroid sx-70 (used, of course), and
a nikon d700!! (also used)

i'm really excited! i had an sx-70 before, but it broke, and i've been polaroidless for a while. i'm looking forward to getting some more film from the impossible project.

also, the d700 has been the object of my coveting for several years. in fact, getting this camera was my biggest dream in recent times. and now i'm holding it in my hands, and shooting awesome photos with it!!

fuck, things seem to be working out.

thank you, karma.

110 film

110 film is apparently no longer available anyfuckingwhere.

last weekend, i got a 110 film-using camera as a prize after filling out a survey at a photo tradeshow. now i know why they were giving so many of them out for free.

i just got my first digital slr

i just got my first digital slr, a nikon d70. it's a few years old, but i got it for about 10% of it's release price!

i thought it would be fun to own a dslr, but i didn't know it would be *this* fun!! before, i carried my camera around at all times, and when i saw something that made me think "i *must* get a shot of that!", i took it out and shot a photo.

but with this camera, i just feel like i want to shoot everything around me in every direction at all times, and it's so fun!

as of now, my two favorite cameras are my most expensive one and my cheapest one.
