oh im still living
at the old address
and im waiting on the weather
that i know will pass
i know that its true
its gonna be a good year
out of the darkness
and into the fire
i tell you i love you
and my hearts in the strangest place
thats how it started
and thats how it ends
well i know you're with me
its a point of pride
and its louder than lightning
in this room of mine
oh im just like you
i never hear the bad news
and i never will
we won by a landslide
our troubles are over
my sisters are married to all of my friends
yeah thats how it started
you took your sweet time
and i waited without complaint
til all the pipe dreams
made me insane
so its all over
its all over anyhow
you took your sweet time
finally i opened my eyes
my friends and my family
they are asking of me:
how long will you ramble?
how long did you say it would be?
snow is still falling
im almost home
ill see you in the new year

I used to only shoot in black and white...now I don't. that was probably a good call. I am however, partial to any film that is free, or has potentially been in an attic since you bought it for that trip you took to the beach in 1993. In fact that would actually be an awesome film to have.
When it comes to Light, I am like a frat house. respect the natty light.
sometimes a flash is cool. tripods too.
I like to use a fixed 50mm lens, no filters most of the time, and a lens cap that I have lost and found 4 times in 2 states.
I don't name things usually and I self identify as a minimalist but I understand if it seems like indifference or laziness.
I use settings as guidelines and nothing more. like having a very precisely inaccurate throwing arm. the rest is probably wishful thinking/denial.
I used to practice a weird sort of artistic isolation, and it was only about a year and a half ago that I started reading anything that had to do with theory, techniques or even basic instruction manuals/directions. I had an art teacher who said you can't create in a vacuum and I hated him so naturally I doubted that. The minds eye is pretty much all you really need to read anyway.
you know when you shoot with someone else and they just follow you around and don't really see a thing wrong with just shooting over your shoulder (in a sense) that bites. one time a friend of mine said it was weird that I just walked around with my camera and took very few photos. I mean isn't the idea to see and experience? it probably wouldn't be as cool or interesting if you spent the entire time looking for a picture. in fact the photos (would) probably suck anyway.
I was walking in Washington square once and this man was shouting “I’m going to die” laughing hysterically, and then asking “did anyone hear me?” So I laughed and said I hear you. He gave me a hug and walked away without saying a word.
I never use timers for the chemicals when im printing. I just go with it and figure, you cant really over fix. right?
i really don't care if i take pictures or if i don't. its not really about that.

I was out on a walk and noticed this kind of disturbing advertisement or billboard for the movie 2012 thats coming out. It was not just a bill, or anything like that, they created an entire facade for this building to make it look like the headquarters of some human continuity program that is I guess going to save the human race in 2012. So anyway they made this tan building blue and covered it in propaganda for this movie, but included in this was bright red graffiti crossing a lot of it out saying things like THE MAYANS WARNED US. But that wasn't where it stopped, all of this was then covered with anti graffiti plastic wrap crap. So not only are they making what will no doubt be a really shitty movie just because they know how much we all love horrible movies about disasters, but, this building was located in the lower east side a place covered in some of the most impressive graffiti I've ever seen. So it was basically saying, this neighborhood is crawling with taggers lets cash in on that and use graffiti in our advertisement, which we will then cover in what is basically a building condom, so that the same people can't tag it, which of course is kind of what they're glorifying in the first place. I would have taken a photo of this but honestly it wasnt even worth preserving. So whether you're for or against graffiti, I ask are you for or against hypocrisy?
