I have been working on taking pictures of before the storm and I have finished two rolls of film. It made me think of the John Waters Film Pecker. Which I am watching right now. Pecker is a great comedy even though I do find most of Waters films sick and demented here the film seems normal and just bizarre.
Well the storm is about to hit in a few hours and we are still staying in Houston. The mass media has said that this is a terrible thing going to happen. I am beginning to think if I take a lot of pictures maybe one day they will be printed. I came across a few pictures of Dad's boss Patricia Hearst and I am thinking I should do articles for another Hearst newspaper just like dad but I am so focused on writing stories on these pictures. I figured my talent is used in the two mediums that I am good at. Photography and writing. If I do well with one I can always use the other to help build my career.
I am mostly a digital photographer but I can use regular cameras. I just think if I found that digital is easier to use for the fact there is no darkrooms. I had so much trouble working in a dark room. So I would let professionals take care of that or the local drug store.
I guess I am going to work on taking more pictures. One of my favorite pictures is the one of Patty Hearst with a gun. I think I want to aim at the image. I want to have a career of web based photography.
