The Cliche Shot

You know, cliches exist for a reason. Its because they are classic, they are good. I mean look at this shot, you cannot deny that there is nothing special about the setup, but it is still a gorgeous photo.

Because I can.

I stand out

Day 3

I have had people tell me I should try selling my photos or doing freelance work of some sort. It is an interesting thought. I do however need to give a copy of that fountain picture to someone here at TU. I will do it for free too so long as it gets posted somewhere outside of the art school where people get to see it.

Now then everyone, I want you to spend the rest of the day like the center tulip, outshine everyone!

Remember, F11 switches to full screen mode so you can enjoy my photography better.

Shades of Tulips

You see, I wasn't kidding, its 2:20 and there is a new post up. Believe me now?

I don't know about you, but I think these bright and happy pictures improve my day whenever I see them. This one in particular, I think it belongs in the default desktop background selections of Windows and/or Macs.

That's enough talking for today.

The Neon Rose

Alright Punks and Punkesses! I am starting out with an announcement. at 2:20pm every day until next Tuesday there will be a new post up.

Why you ask? It is because as I was looking over my shots from the past couple weeks I noticed that I had missed some really exceptional photos and I want to show them sooner rather than later. I felt that if I posted all of them at once they wouldn't get the attention the rightfully deserve. Therefore, you will get a flower related picture every day for a week.

An interesting fact about this photo is that there is absolutely no post processing. This picture is exactly how I took it with nothing done to it on the computer.

This rose is just naturally that unnaturally bright.

Thank you, that is all.

Art Final Project

I AM FREE!!!

Finished my art class today. It was one rough class. I think it says something when all the classes I take for fun end up being painful in one way or another.

I think the professor guy liked my stuff this semester. He said the thing he liked the most and thinks stands out the most is that all of my works seemed bipolar. He talked about how they are all complex, and have two or more personalities in it. And stuff like that. Maybe when i get his last critique email I'll be able to write down what he means.

Well, here is what I presented as my final project in that art class.

ROSES!

You know, I really do like that park, everytime I go back there are different things blooming. As you can see, the roses are now blooming. I like roses, therefore you are going to get your fill of them this week. If you only check this page on Tuesdays, then check back a couple other times this week as I post some more shots from the Woodward Park Rose garden.

I may also talk more then, so in the mean time I give you pretty pictures.



I see part of a spiderweb in this one!



Best for last!

Le Bridge

I know French! "Le" means "The" in France. Or so I have heard.

I know I know, you guys (All two of you) are probably getting tired of seeing pictures of flowers and wanting me to post something different. So I will stop posting pictures of flowers*.

This shot was taken today actually. I took it at this park here in Tulsa called Woodward Park. I really like this park, it is small but there are a lot of things in it. Plus a lot of people go there. Around this time of year it becomes even more popular because all the bushes that are in the park are a kind of flowering bush called Azalea. What this means is every photographer, professional, hobbiest, or parent comes out of the woodworks to come here. Or there are your normal people who just like going there because it is nice. However azaleas have kind of a bad smell.....But hey, they are pretty as you are about to see.

Ah yes, if you like this bridge and other random bits of architecture, you should check out my occasional partner [read as: "minion"] in crime Jeremy Jewell Photography. He lives in the O.C. where he apparently works. I personally doubt this heavily. I mean we have all seen the commercials with Schwarzenegger and other random Californians saying they don't actually work.




*maybe.

Out Like a Lamb

I woulda/coulda posted this last week, but then I might have jinxed it and sent Oklahoma in to another blizzard. But I can safely say now that March went ahead and went out like a lamb.

Baaaaaaaaa

Not much to say about this picture. Took it a couple weeks ago, and as I believe I have said before, certain things are just too adorable, such as a new lamb.



And as a way to distract you from the fact that this is going up on a Wednesday, be distracted by pretty flowers.
