uncomfortable?

This was for a recent contrast assignment i did. I really like the first two, of the underpass and the tunnel thing. The third i actually find, as my teacher put it, uncomfortable. I dont know what compelled me to make this picture, because i cropped it, knowing that it didnt look right. If feels all bundled and tight. weird. I met with my teacher and she was talking to me about my professional aspirations in photography, to which i replied i have none. Just for fun. She was trying to talk me into it, but i think ill just keep it as my escape hobby. It did make me feel cool though haha. 

I like the flow of this one with the light street amidst dark pillars, and how the little sign on the right keeps your eyes from wandering off the page. 
I really like the rhythm of this image in the lights and darks, and the diagonal lines that seem to meet up. The signs also play into it very well. 
Yeah, this is just uncomfortable. i think it pretty different than most of my stuff and that may be the reason i did it. Something different, even though strange or weird, can be a breath of fresh air sometimes. 

Slow Train

So my friend Dave has a music/fashion blog that i do the photo stuff for. This past week we went to slowtrain. I was stoked on that place. You should check out his blog . I grabbed these photos outside on the way to his car. I love graffiti. its nostalgic. I just wish there was more in Salt Lake, but there are too many people who are terrible at it, and thats way worse.  

insomnia

Well, i need to be sleeping right now, but i can't seem to get there. So, here are some older photos that i decided to edit. I don't think i will ever stop loving city scenes. The lines and structure is so interesting to me. Im going to LA later this week for work, missing the sounds concert which i can't even describe my sorrow, but hopefully i can take some fun shots there. Talk about coincidence, the song "insomnia" by electric president just played on my playlist. 

I like this one

Libs

I forgot about these pictures i took around the beginning of the summer. I just edited them and im pretty stoked on them. I also had an architectural photo assignment due today, so im stoked i found them. Plus with this swift change of weather i dont really want to be wandering around downtown shooting, when i should be at the lib studying, or looking at fbook when im supposed to be studying. I have to factor in my fbook time when i study. Pathetic. 

I really like how the shadows play off the the walls and pillars. neat and stuff

yeah like reflections are like cool and stuff and when the stuff like leads your eyes to the reflection center thats like cool and whatever. 

7th

Yeah just a few more long shutter shots, with one of the boston building. I love that building, just looks classy. The ones with the fire hydrant are on 7th east, which i have driven on almost everyday for like 4 years on my way to work and i finally decided to stop and shoot one night. Also the other day i went with Dave to take pictures of Fice, because he was doing a review for that shop. He does a good job and stuff, i liked some of the photos so you should hit up his blog to see them. 

Flowriding

Last week Sam, Chase and I cruised up to Ogden to hit up the flowrider. Chase and Sam were killin it. It made me hate Chase even more because he is just good at everything. I think i could just sit there all day and watch people eat it on that thing. People were just getting worked. We decided to make it a weekly tradition. 

long shutters

I remember i was having like an uber crappy night so i went and took these, so i guess something good did come of that night. I got pretty stoked on long exposure stuff and stuff and other things and such as...
