hello, what is up?

Wed Jun 24, 2009, 3:53 AM
hey dA people.

the group of photographers here gets smaller and smaller, at least that is my impression. i only see a few new photographs every day. i think it's quite sad. i think today it is more hip to have a blog where (potential) "customers" can follow you. at least that's the idea. since it's much more work to write a blog every two weeks than just upload a few photographs here.
basically it's the same shit, just a different name. since "art" communities like dA have a unprofessional reputation. i remember having a good talk with a photographer from a fancy art school, when i mentioned that i know what she was talking about since i take photographs myself she got interested and ask if i had a website. by that time i didn't had one, i said i upload my stuff at dA the conversation was over. i found that funny. i know people like me are such a pain for professionals. we have good cameras as well and steal customers for less money. i know it's pretty bad... but i just like what i do, taking photographs. if i can make money with it, even better.

don't know why i write this. i actually wanted to tell you about what's going on over here.
i will not bitch about the frankenstein monster (thesis) that i'm working on...
i was ask to shoot a wedding this weekend. it was half mexican so it was a bit more exciting. i also took some baby photographs from little anton. it was the first time that i had a baby in front of the lens but it was very cool. the photographs look great as well. i got a fancy d700 camera from my friend nico [link] . now i want to dispose mine and get such a beast myself. hell yeah! where can i sign... !? it's actually the first dslr that i really like without any weakenings. the high iso was a real help. i never had a "sorry no light for this" moments.
i also got all the rolls from texel back from my new newly-discovered lab [link] . it was pretty expensive to do contact sheets. but since i can't process the film them myself anymore 3,30€ for a roll of black and white film is not expensive at all. i should not have ask them to do contract sheets.
i don't have a scanner anymore so i can't upload the stuff here. any suggestions for a scanner? what about the v500, heared horrible stories about it. don't know. i would like to scan medium format as well and spend as less money as possible, note me ;P

i hope i can show you some of the photographs from anton and the wedding soon. since they are quite private i totally understand if the couples don't want to see themselfs or anton online.
i also have the chance to see a few photographs in a magazine but don't know, don't hallo till it's out of the wood; see how that goes.
besides these things that are working quite well i guess, i'm still not happy about my own photographs. i take too much stuff out of situations and the results are all the same but now i have at least some ideas for the future.

now the dvds are burned and i can get back to my thesis, that keeps me busy for a while, so no photographs.

check my picasa [link] for more casual stuff. yeah, like a blog but at least i don't quit dA ;)

My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

your eyes saw my unformed body.
