9 of November




(iTunes: Magnet - Duracelia)

I've started shooting for my Photo's final.

I have to shoot 4 rolls and make 10 prints.


I don't imagine it being too difficult.

I like having the motivation to get out and shoot more often.

8 of November




(iTunes: Feist - Now At Last)

I like all the good sports there are around campus.

I'll be in need of shooting a roll for my class...and there will always be people willing to be photographed.

I like that.

I've been taking pictures of this guy since my first year here at school.

Funny how not much has changed.

(iTunes: M. Ward - One Hundred Million Years)

Here's a collection of all the "failed" attempts at Black And White photography.

The thing is, I rather like the way these pictures turn out.

I'm considering making the first one my new desktop background...


There's a sense of peace I have associated with these imperfect pictures.

A sense of fading into the background.


It makes me feel as if I'm a quiet observer in the scene.

(iTunes: Loney, Dear - Ignorant Boy, Beautiful Girl)

I like when the name of the song is the last phrase in the chorus.

...but that doesn't happen very often.

(iTunes: Electric President - Insomnia)

I wonder what the world looks like through the eyes of a caricature artist.

(iTunes: This Will Destroy You - Happiness: We're All In It Together)

I like working with pictures while listening to instrumental music.

Those who know me pretty well know that Album Leaf is one of my all-time favorites.

While going through these black and white's, I've been listening to alot of Explosions In The Sky and This Will Destroy You.

It just kinda fits the mood I'm in right now.


This picture was from the roll that ended up getting wrecked during the developing process.

It got all torn up and shredded while taking it off the spindle.


But I end up liking the grittiness to these pictures more then the "perfect" ones.

(iTunes: Explosions In The Sky - Your Hand In Mine)

Got a ton of black and white pictures from my Photo's 1 class imported to my computer.

Looks like the next couple of posts will be a bunch of those guys.


The semester is coming to a close.

It's been a good one...but it sure can be stressful.

2 of November




(iTunes: Loney, Dear - Lower Your Head)

I spent about 10 minutes sifting through my cell phone's notes to see if I could put some interesting observation or something clever up on this post.

(iTunes: SIgur Ros - Glosoli)

I will be an active participant of No-Shave November this year.

The last time I went a month without shaving was over the summer.

I'm interested to see how this ends up turning out.

Happy Halloween.

(iTunes: Sigur Ros - Heima)

This is Caleb.

My newest nephew.

I haven't really taken any other pictures of him accept when he was first born.

My sister Kellie wanted a few fall shots of him.

Then I convinced them to take me to Panda Express to get the last whole punched on my card.

I've been saving my Panda Express card for 2 years waiting to fill it up all the way.

Now I just have to wait for the perfect time to collect all the benefits of a fully punched card.

It's gonna be a good day.

29 of October






(iTunes: The Smiths - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out)

I've never been so nervous for Halloween.

In the past couple of years I've known exactly what I was gonna be.

And I got that costume idea instantly.

It just stayed with me...and I had it all ready to go.

But this year nothing stood out to me.

I ended up settling for a quick idea.

But I'm hoping next year I'll redeem myself.

(iTunes: Jadiid - Africa)

Shot these pictures for my Photo's class while at Carey's game yesterday.

27 of October






(iTunes: Headlights - Wisconsin Beaches)

Headed to Carey's playoff soccer game today.

Like Ronnie said, it's weird seeing the tallest person on the field be a Bienert.

26 of October




(iTunes: Headlights - I Don't Mind At All)

Grabbed Rob for a few pictures for my newest Photo's roll.

He loves my headphones.

And he borrowed my sweatshirt for the pictures as well.



Really digging this Headlights album by the way. For fans of Broken Social Scene, I recommend checking it out.
