Photoblog: Something about them 1

"Traffic"

I often find that my favorite photographs that I take are the ones that I can't really explain why I like them. The one above is taken of a truck speeding by my parents house at dusk (the two lines going through the frame are the trails from the headlights of the truck and its trailer). The picture is drab and dreary and blurry but it locks my gaze.

"Afternoon Aura"

Changing my blog's header photo reminded me of one of the first analog pictures that I ever took. Same location as the header photo, 10 or so years before (now 16 or so years ago), at a different time of year, and analog instead of digital. I remember liking how this and the other 23 or so photos turned out, so I'm still taking pictures...

Yzur

Our annual graduate student publication Yzur (a journal that features creative writing, imagery, etc. [no scholarly essays]) will be featuring three works of mine. The theme of this year's issue is "Locura" ("Madness"). I present my three entries below.

The first is a concrete poem which I did on Word and so when I converted it to a image file through Power Point the quality went out the window but you get the point. The title of the poem is the poem itself: "L@CURAINSANITY":

The second is titled "Señal" ("Sign"):

The third is titled "Radio del malecón" ("Jetty Radius"):

"Shadow Puppet"

I usually don't like to take pictures of animals because I like to take my sweet time and contemplate what I'm capturing with my lens but we went to a couple of zoos while we were in Argentina and I was able to get some interesting pictures while we visited. The picture above is of a "Flying Fox" (Pteropus vampyrus) that was sleeping while hanging by a claw. It's pretty easy to take a picture of an animal when it sleeps but it is only interesting if the animal is hanging upside-down. I may post a few more animal shots later.

Eden is a Place: Photoblog: Smoke

Pictures from airplane windows don't always turn out but this one of the Smoky Mountains turned out nice.
