More visuals

Let's do some visuals.  1) It's a mosquito, they are in NOLA now. Huge creatures. I found out that they eat the small mosquitos, so they don't suck on human flesh. That's good to know. Otherwise, I'd really want to stay inside. 2) This is a painting that I managed to save from the mold from someone's home. I can do some touch ups and reprint it on canvas and then reframe it. 3) After seeing this picture, I thought of the scene from Halloween when Lori Strode looks out of her bedroom window and thinks she see Michael Myers in the neighbors yard. I was actually doing laundry and had the camera set. LOL. 4) Laundry  5) Beast of vines 6) Check out the new haircut. It's actually more Xtreme now. I'm actually sporting a mohawk. I keep it tame in the hood. Don't want to scare the neighbors. LOL. 7) Nature is really beautiful 8) X  9) Speaks for itself  10) Numbers  11) Skyline  12) Memories 13) Clean up  14) Houses were beginning to burn in NOLA 15) A picture speaks thousands of words and it raises questions  16) This is where it all began. When I was taken from my house in the boat by the coast guard, I was brought to the entrance ramp of I -610 heading east. Thanks for stopping by; open your mind.

Images tell a story

Photo images not only capture a moment in time, they tell a story. With digital photography we can add, enhance and create art on top of art. The images you are about to see were taken with the Casio EX S500 Exilim digital camera. I’m still learning things about the camera. I’m a on hands kinda guy. Everything I do is self taught. I’m always trying something new and taking risks. It’s the beauty of being an artist. Enjoy, thanks for stopping by; keep an open mind.

1) Snap my picture  2) The Crowd  3) And the parade passes by  4) It's hard for a pimp 5) Float from Zulu  6) Chillin' along the route  7) Minature superhero  8) This is Mardi Gras  9) Mini Wonder Woman  10) A sense of humor  11) Only in Nu Awlins  12) It speaks for itself

Taking pictures, capturing moments

When we take pictures, no matter what level we are on, we capture a moment in time. Even if it is considered art, it is there to be cherished, admired. Upon my return to NOLA I gave one of my cousins some photos because they had lost those memories in Katrina. I'll soon begin putting together CDs of photos of various trips and family events we all shared together. The thing about being a photographer is that you tend to be the resident photographer for your family. Even when they don't come to you for business. LOL. Here are a few images I took on my recent visit back to the city.

1) The interior of the living room 2) One wall when we first started moving in  3) The toilet  4) Shower stall 5) Reflection of the artist  6) The cold shoulder 7) Walk this way  8) Happy Mardi Gras 9) Horse and pig 10) I don't think I'm in Kansas anymore

Thanks for stopping by; keep an open mind.
