Viernes Noche

Friday night: I'm reading in bed with my headlamp when I get an idea: long exposures using only flashes from the red and white LED lights in my headlamp.

The room was completely dark except for the light I manually splashed across the frame. Shutter speed ranged from 10-20 seconds, for several of these I was able to drop the ISO to just 200. These pictures have not been edited in anyway aside from resizing. Cheers!

Street I

Street photography is hard to execute in the small town of Anderson, SC. The aspects of street photography that I love, thinking quickly about a shot and trying to blend in with the background to grab it, are virtually impossible without a high concentration of people in a specific place.

But Anderson can't stay quiet all week. There is one place every week where you're guaranteed to find a high person-to-square-foot-of-earth ratio: Saturday morning at the Jockey Lot.

I headed down to the South's biggest flea market with my 50mm to try my first round of street photography. I learned a lot, here's a few of my favorites.
