Early

The past week has been a bit rough on me. Trips to the hospital keep happening more frequent for me now and I think that might be what is keeping me up. I have been trying to keep up with my photos more recently but have been getting side tracked just to do random events happening. I'm going to start going through my flickr account and try to update it so I don't have pretty much every photo I take. I have a lot of my test photos, and just random photos that are uploaded and, well, they are not the best photos because well, I was trying to get the settings right and everything else set up.

I have been recently following some photographers that have caught my eye. I found them on a site that I have been on for a while now. Tumblr. It's hard to explain what type of site it is. Some would call it a blogging site made simple. I don't seem to use it to blog however. For me, its a site to get ideas from and I mainly find photos that catch my eye and just "reblog" them so I can look back at them. One of my favorite photographers (Terry Richardson) even has his own personal page which he posts photos that he does for shoots and just random day to day photos. One photographer that I have been following labeled himself as an art photographer. When people ask me what kind of photographer I am, or what I enjoy the most, I always get stuck because I haven't really been able to label myself but, now, I believe I can. I want to say I am an art photographer because as much as I enjoy fashion photography and bands, I seem to find myself enjoying the more artistic side of photos rather then setting up shoots. I just wish I could get out and travel.
