The truth…

…in colorful frames.

Talking to a very dear friend he goes telling me how i’m cheating by shooting BW. “Why ?” i ask him with the specific dumb grin on my face. “Well, you see, colors make our life grand” he says. “Look around, color is what makes us different, majestic, pitiful and anything but the same”

Well, let me tell you this: “I think you are totally wrong, my friend. I like BW cause i’m lazy” I wistfully counter riposted.

Black and white photography is sincere, non pretentious and somewhat easy to stare at for hours and hours. It’s the very essence of what we are when we are still. No matter how many colors you wear, no matter how bright or pale you dress, no matter how much make up you put on you are nothing but a little monkey, wrapped in a suit, walking around other funny little monkeys. And that is the beauty of it, this is what black and white filters out: the monkey suits that we unconsciously put on every day so that we get the approval of other monkeys.

And just to reinforce the above I uploaded some color stuff.

Oh, and by the way, i love monkeys. :)

Just decided that if i were a song i would by All Along the Watchtower as made famous by Jimi Hendrix. There is a whole cognitive process behind it and hopefully one day i will have the patience to tell you all about it.

News:

1) Haven’t taken any photos in a while now and I’m starting to get the feeling that i kinda lost the skill

2) Discovered a new, pretty kick ass band, and hopefully made some new awesome friends: Tragic, pix from their gig at Big Mamou below

3) “This was the year he fell to pieces and ironically this was the year when more people then he knew even existed scrambled to put him back together again” – funny enough this makes sense now. :) Thank you for an amaizing 2009. I’ll tell you more about it some time in the near future.

A Tryke

I guess you always get what you want and it looks like i wanted  trykes.  No pun intended.

A tryke

and TKR doing his TKRs

been doin a lot of stuff, had no time to shoot more.  Funny enough this whole new thing in which i dont get to shoot photos or have the time to skate is not really that thirlling. Its way to quiet these days,in a busy way but  there’s no saga.

Later Edit: God i love the stuff that happens while you are away. :) Buer’s entry is just brilliant, like you would expect from any good journalist like him. You gotta read it, it my fkin day! God save the scene.
