I've said before that I wish to be the ripple in the water, changing perspectives, sharing how I see the world. Recently, I've dedicated quite a bit of time to building a photography site to do just that. I'm hoping to get some of these pictures published in local and travel magazines, but also I wanted a semi-professional site to be able to show my work. Check it out at Sydian Photography. I'm not sure if I've really been blindsided by my passion yet, but over the last month and a half I've spent nearly as much time on my photos and art projects as I have on my two jobs. I even splurged and purchased a few more toys for my camera, including a remote shutter. I'm planning on teaching myself a new technique called High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography, and hopefully will have some examples to post soon. In the meantime, if you'd like to see what it can look like, check out Stuck in Customs.
I've spent the last few months hording my quarters from tips (most of the drinks cost $3.25, etc, so I make about $20 bucks a week in quarters). I decided that when the crown bag was full, which equals roughly $400, I'd hit the road visiting people, adventuring, and taking pictures. The bag is nearly full so I took some time off work and planned out a trip. I'm leaving Saturday, for the Denver area, and next week I'll be in Texas. I'll be coming back via Arizona and Utah, stopping wherever I see a good picture, and hopefully adventuring on the way. On the agenda so far; skydiving at Mile High, a waterpark somewhere, climbing hopefully, Bryce canyon, the slot canyons, probably Zion national park, and visiting friends and family along the way. Any suggestions?
Back to work. <3
