Que!? COMO!? es 3:00 AM!

NO JOKE. This is why I can not keep a photo blog. I will go with verry long absences of posting anything  and then decide to post everything image I ever shot. Its like a fat kid who hasn't eat cake for a week and then come the birthday party on Saturday and watch out- you turn back and he has eaten the WHOLE DANG thing! i just wanted to put a few pics up but now its 3:23 AM!! But this is my last post even though I have a ton more Jerusalem photos I want to put up.

I wanted to put these photos up for two reasons:
A. I haven't shot anything in a loooong time. But I had a lot of fun doing these and they turned out really well
2. Alex has been a super awesome friend of mine for awhile now. It breaks my heart to think that she will be graduated by the time I get back from my mission.  I will miss her mucho much.



Resurrection of the Lost

Going through all my Jerusalem photos I dug up some of my old BW film photos from class. I love BW and Film so I had to put these on.

I love abstract

I played trombone in high school

Living with Faith: Christians, Muslims, Jews

I love and respect the faith of the people of the Holy Land. I learned so much from these different religions and sects. Their faith in God is rooted deep within them and they have taught me to love God with greater obedience.

"The world fears time..but time fears THE PYRAMIDS!"

Haha this was the cheesiest but through and through RAD performance! It was hard to shoot because of the night fall, however the laser make for some nice SF images.



Film-the booty call

I really struggled with my digital camera's committment issues. It was always failing me. Fortunately, I brought my film camera as a trusty booty call. This particular roll of film I bought from an ancient vendor in Jordan who probably had this roll since he had been born. Because it is so old, there is a fun grainy effect to these photos. I finally just dropped my others rolls off to get developed the other day; I am excited to get those images back! 





Naked photos

Black and White is my favorite. The lack of color presents a naked story- stripped of anything that might other wise detract from what is really being told. I have so many photos but these are a few of my favorites:

Judaean Desert 
Market Street Old Jerusalem
Bethlahem
Jordan River Galilee 

Church of the Holy Sepulchre
