Color Project comeback...

2011-02-27T13:44:00.000-05:00

Hey everyone,

With a recent spark of interest, inspiration and motivation, I'm (we're) bringing this project back to life! Once again, all welcome and encouraged to participate. For a refresher or for any new participants, here's the deal:

I'll name a new color at the start of each month, and during that month you are to use your camera as a tool to document. The project is a simple exercise in awareness and observation. You're to look around in your daily life and take shots of the colorful things you see/find. The idea is to document the NATURAL or pre-existing rather than setting up shots just to fulfill the assignment. In other words, dont go out of your way for this. Just pay attention. Other than that, this is pretty free-form. Sometime before the end of the month, post what you found. Have fun with it.

The only real guidelines are: use a camera, limit your final posts to no more than 5 images, and include your name with each post, too, so we know who's seeing all of this colorful stuff.

Oh, and if you need log-in information, just contact me at kellylanzendorfer@gmail.com.

Cool.
-Kelly

Is everyone still out there? Still seeing colors?
I've really let this go, but looking back through the months and colors, we had a nice thing going. Maybe we should perk up and go for another round. 2010: a year with less neglect.

In honor of Heather McNeil,
December 2009: silver and gold (if you wanna go for it this late in the game)

New Growth

2009-08-05T03:33:00.000-04:00

These two pictures are, perhaps, some of the biggest disappointments of my life.
They are of tiny purple flowers around Mt. St. Helens. It's been nearly 30 years since the blast, but new growth comes slow in the area.
I took these pictures with my father's camera, I couldn't tell you what kind of camera it is but it's taken some of the greatest pictures I've ever seen. I've been asking for years to be able to use it to no avail, but on this particular day I was allowed 10 minutes with his camera. I felt like the luckiest person in the entire world.
Unfortunately, every picture came back blurry. Something must be wrong with the camera. Dad didn't say too much, but I know he's heartbroken.
It is old. Maybe it can be fixed.
Hopefully.
