a mirror, fishing string and one christmas light.

I was trying to figure out some way to use the mirror in our living room in dark light, so I hung one Christmas light from clear fishing string above a lamp and was playing with the reflection trying to make it look like I was using two hands and not just one.

Light!

Some of these are my favorites others not so much. I really liked the light coming the the windowsill in our kitchen so I was playing with colored dye and water and the shadows those combinations made.

I really liked the shadows in the morning under the bridge

George Eastman

Madison Greiner
Photographer MP2 assigment
3rd Period


Throughout the reading The History of Photography I found George Eastman's blog particularly interesting. I must admit the tragic honesty rapped into his suicide note is what initially drew my attention. ("My work is done. Why wait?") the two Eastman photographs that I love the most, would be his skyscrape of a city, and the small vinitian boy. I really love the blunt expression on the boys face, and the fact that everything is in focus. Not to mention the boys eyes are so expressive. & the skycap is ghostly foggy in sepia tones without a single person anywhere. In 1880, at age 24 Eastman started a dry plate company in Rochester, New York. His photograph was the first half tone photograph to appear in a daily newspaper. (The New York Graphic) Eastman was also the sole creator of the Eastman Kodak Company. George Eastman was born July 12,1854 and was lost March 14th,1932.

-fun fact: his mom helped him come up with the word Kodak!

Playing with Linear Perspective

    I've been thinking a lot about how much more interesting things are from new viewing angles, which got me thinking about linear perspective. Anyway, I know it's 1 in the morning, but I'm just having one of those..late night photo kicks. Had to do some photo posting.

(These pictures aren't particularly recent)

heh..poor unsuspecting samaritans.
