Haha woww! This has honestly made my dayy! Where do I start…

1) Thank you so much! Your blog inspires me moore! :D

2) Well, I haven’t been able to upgrade my camera yet because I kind of got in the way of saving for it last semester. :/// But…I’m trying not to push it now. If it will happen, it will happen :) A lot of people (hehe Nana Kwaku! he’s another photographer and follows this blog) have advised me about using what I have and I’ve kind of felt better about using my camera now. Oh woops, I almost forgot, my point-and-shoot JUST died (FYI everybody! :( ) sooo…maybe it’s time for that camera? lol I really hope so :( A small part of me thinks that God is forcing me to go get it. So the grueling process of getting a job and saving for it begins…lol the task is kind of daunting to me, I’m kind of scared.

3) I’m currently in Rome! :) For the last summer I get to spend here…my mom works here so I’ve been here for a few summers, but she’s going back home (Ghana) in October.

4) I got to take an introductory photography class last year, in my 2011 fall semester, but I’m not really majoring in it or anything. It’s not even a major at my school, though you can design it. I did get into the follow-up of that class though! So yayyy :D Can’t wait for Digital Photography II in the fall :) I’m so excited to be back :DD After that, there aren’t any other photo classes except a B&W photo class that happens during winter break, and which you need your own film camera for :/ So after this…I don’t get to learn anything else lol. But I’m still happy with what I’ve been able to do :)

Thanks for checking out my blog! God bless!

Painting With Sound

Like a 3-D take on Jackson Pollock, the latest work by the artist Martin Klimas begins with splatters of paint in fuchsia, teal and lime green, positioned on a scrim over the diaphragm of a speaker. Then the volume is turned up. For each image, Klimas selects music — typically something dynamic and percussive — and the vibration of the speaker sends the paint aloft in patterns that reveal themselves through the lens of his Hasselblad. For this series, Klimas spent six months and about 1,000 shots to produce the final images. The resulting images are Klimas’s attempt to answer the question “What does music look like?” (via nytimes)

Leomie Anderson & Harry Uzoka ( Models & real life couple ) in “True Story” for The Ones2Watch

True Story : Harry saw Leomie for the first time while watching the Channel 4 documentary series The Model Agency. He turned to his mother and declared that Leomie was the girl he wanted to marry. After much e-stalking, Harry managed to woo Leomie via Twitter. They have been together ever since. Harry’s mum is still in shock.

lol. I love photo stories.
