I posted some photos from Sintra, Portugal the other day on my blog. There's some really cool photos in there if I do say so myself, since there were castles and palaces and so much greenery at this place. I wish we had more time to explore. And more photos from our Spaincation from January are up there too. Here's two shots I really like:

I need more friends! Friends who DO things! Fun silly things! Free things! Any things! I have a +1 to a show on Saturday night and nobody wants to come! The few people who are interested in Yelle (the show I'm going to) are already busy or out of town. Boooooo ( Read more... )

How do you feel about photo manipulation? Sure, we all sharpen things up, clone tool out that double chin and blur that zit, but what about when you make photos look like film? I feel like that's cheating. I feel like that is just feeding into what I sorta mentioned earlier, where all the photos that have this old/vintage/film aesthetic are in ( Read more... )

Not all of them are necessarily that great to feature on my website, but they're still good photos nonetheless. It's nice to go back and pick out some choice shots to bring back that are a few years old. ( Read more... )

Quickly, since it's after 2am, I just watched Exit Through the Gift Shop and I had NO IDEA that was MBW or anything about how he got started, and that half of his works were actually MBW. I have some photos of his stuff on the streets in Williamsburg from 2008 and I believe that's the same year that he decorated a space for a CMJ party. I also ( Read more... )

I'm such a dick, I keep looking at flight prices to go to London in April during my spring break, which happens to be when Sugarcult is playing 2 shows in England. It's really a great excuse to go, as it's usually the same price if not less expensive to fly somewhere else in Europe other than England. Since their culture is so similar to the US and ( Read more... )
