The beginning of 2008 has been a personal chart-topper having won a hot box pizza photo challenge (Big Ten Combos all around!) that caught my interest because I have a camera and I eat pizza… and I love it. Photos from the Famous Friends New Year’s party were featured in New York Magazine which taught me the importance of tagging with speed and accuracy and that everybody, no matter age or expertise, <3’sflickr. On a side note, I’m in the process of upgrading to a pro account after a practical suggestion from my friend, Mindy over a game (final score: 108-63) of bowling. Guess who won… here’s a hint: Mindy. Finally, the Feb. issue of SPIN Magazine featured this shot of Dillinger Escape Plan I snapped at their December show in Bloomington, IN. This is good for many reasons. The most important is that about a year ago, I made SPIN my goal. Having done that, there is a need to set new objectives. I’ll be safe and say that I will keep shooting and experimenting more and more and more, while keeping my mind open to more specific targets in the future. Although, controlled lighting/settings and creative collaborations have been surfing my brain waves as of late.
