Pictures and Words

The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don't have to explain things with words.

Lion Steals Camera

Photographer Ed Hetherington just got back from a trip to Zimbabwe where he had an interesting experience. He set up his Canon 5D near an animal carcass in order to remotely snap some photos of lions feeding. This is what he captured:

The lens survived, but the camera needed a little repair. But I'd say it was worth it for the story...

Dumb Client Requests

The people at Sharp Suits designed posters with some of the dumbest feedback their clients have given them over the years. These are fantastic.

Eve Arnold on Cameras

It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.

Another Appearance on "Things Organized Neatly"

Two days ago, I posted 2 "cute" photos of fall colors. I submitted those photos to the popular tumblr site called Things Organized Neatly, and 1 was almost instantly published.

Here's how it looked on their site, along with all the likes, comments, and reblogs over the first 16 hours or so:

Thanks Things Organized Neatly!! Always fun to see my work up on your site!

Fall Colors

My 16-month-old son and I were out playing in the yard this past weekend as it was misting. We had some fun with leaves while we were out there:

If you like these, make sure to check out 2 posts from 2 years ago (HERE and HERE) where I had similar fun with Privet Leaves and Crab Apple Cherries.

The Girl With the Photoshop Tattoo

Have you seen this? Here's what designer Megan Orsi has to say about her tattoo:

When I was in high school, I spent every waking moment in Photoshop creating websites and collages for my favorite show, The X-Files (don’t laugh!). Thankfully, all of the time I spent paid off and now I’m able to use my Photoshop skills on a daily basis doing a job I love. Photoshop’s been a big part of my past, and now, it will always be a part of my future. Thanks, Adobe ;-)

Hope everyone enjoys the Photoshop Toolbar Tattoo =D

Here's the tattoo:

Color me jealous.
