Christmas swag

(These look kind of funky small. I would recommend opening them up to see them for reals)
Pics of stuff June and others got for Christmas. Blocks that Martha played with all night long.
June got a Dora the Explorer baseball mitt. I was very excited.
She also got her first Slinky. Pretty sweet.

Kyle, Angela and the baby

If I were a carpenter, and you were a lady, would you marry me anyway, would you have my baby? Kyle's my brother, and Angela is my sister in law. I took their pictures on Christmas at my grandmas, and took the baby's first pictures.

PIcs from the Christmas party

every year we gather with out distant relatives and have the most stereotypically wholesome, Norman Rockwell Christmas party, complete with a Nativity play, talent show and private Mass. Here are some pictures I took with my new camera. Abby plays "Silent Night" on her saw. The time lapse makes her look wavy gravy
My attempt of a portrait semi failed of the Obersts. I think I'm going to try and shoot portraits in the Old Market in a few days, just for practice.
The Nativity play came complete with cute little angels and shepherds.
This one came out descent of my parents and their neighbors.

My favs of the day

We done made us a picture taker...

Tom Brush and I took on the project today of making a camera that we made in Make Magazine (the grrrrreatest magazine I have ever read EVER).

We made this doozie that has become my pride and joy.
We got the scanner off of a creepy Scientologist in Bellevue this morning. The we attached to boxes, Gator Bord and magnifying glass and took some pics, son.

So long, Ben!

This was Ben Amdor's last night in town (Niemann is in the background winking at me). It was a sad night. He is moving to Ireland tomorrow for 3 or 4 months. So sad. So sad.

This is the memorial for Ben at Hotel Frank. We'll miss you comrade. Don't get killed protesting.

After a few beers, I thought I would make my mark at Hotel Frank. Guess which one I wrote I wrote (after I wrote a 10 page Theology paper and drinking a few beers).

Final for film photography

These are some of the final prints I made. I won't show them all right now, because some may end up being Christmas presents.

This was a still life done in the studio. That Jesuit behind the skull is my professor.

This was my other still life in the studio.

This was Fr. Schlegel at the Mass of the Holy Spirit at the beginning of the semester. This is a ceremony for the new semester at all of the Jesuit colleges.

In other news, I am <-----> this close from being done with my redesign. It's looking pretty good, I think.

Under construction

As you can tell, I'm reworking the blog for my Web design class, so it's going to look a little iffy for about a week.

Anywho, this is a print I made and sent as a postcard to Niemann.
