iphone art

I took and edited this with my iphone i have 12GB of photos on my phone. i might need intervention

watch out

i was treated to the zoo two weekends ago. the only place i visited was the snake house. my favorite. we left after that. i saw what i wanted and the kids were annoying. :) (which is your favorite?)

photOGRAPHY rocket style...

random rockets,

why yes i did get to hold and play with a timber rattlesnake for a story for work. i also got his latest shed skin in the mail which to me, is a treasure. his name is Hollywood and he is 60inches long and over 7lbs.

a photo from the arch in st. louis awhile back. just one leg of the arch that is...

even tragedy can be pretty, a grain bin explosion hurting four people, but the rainbow is amazing!

a shot of some flowers in my front yard from a worms perspective of course.... :0)

making art...

this has been edited ....!
all of these actually have been.
i've taken all of these with my iphone
photographed around me during work
or when i see something i like while just hanging out.
i have added photos together,
added effects to them,
i am addicted to photography
and think i may need an intervention.
ALSO- not blogging much cause i have
been making other types of art like crazy!
sculpture,
fiber,
wood,
video,

random rockets...

on a story for the dreaded budget cuts. my third that week, i was going out of my mind. i came across this tric and played with it since the gym was empty where the meeting was gonna be.

who doesn't like a water tower shot? you don't! well suffer anyway dingdong. cause i like em! and i have plenty, seems every small town has a couple!

rocket at the carnie! why yes, i am the clown!

a FABULOUS laundry mat. i was two hours away doing a school budget cut story (same week as above shot of the tric) and on my way back to the station i came across this laundry mat. i spun a pretty quick u-turn and took about fifty photos in various filters, films, positions.... i LOVED this laundry!

5 rockets...

i got this little guy at an estate sale, he was in the corner of a basement closet on the floor. he is barely 3 inches big. i drive this certain lady crazy i see on/off through the summer at these things cause i always tend to find the stuff they don't price. they either consider it trash or they overlook it and then she has to give me a price on the fly, i think he was a quarter. he HAD to come home with me. i have him tucked away in a safe place with my other treasures,

this motel is actually still open in a close-by town. i know for a fact i would never stay there but the sign is what i look at every time i drive by. i couldn't even tell you what's on the other side of the road.... and yes it is named after the ol' ABE.

If i would have listened to the person giving me grief about going on this mini adventure i would never have gotten this shot. i cherish the fact that i can think for myself and still went on my walk-about. i met an amazing old guy and got some fabulous shots!

i.heart.graffiti. i can't read it but i sure can look at the color choices, lines, shapes with a sense of wonder at the creativity it took to do this artform. we have railroad tracks nearby and i am treated with a train occasionally with "tags" all over it. this was one train and it made me late for work to grab these but hey, five minutes for joy..... i'll take it every time.

i have a lot of time in the work car, driving, visiting cool little unique towns. one of the multiple favorite parts of my job. i get paid to make art..!
