Before the end of the year. Part 2

I self-published a book using blurb.com and I am part of a photography show at Blush Wine Bar in the Castro.
Here are the two photographs I have in the show.
They are for sale, so if you would like to look at them, they will be up at Blush until mid January 2010.





Also, Here is the info for the show and the list of the other artists.


The book is called Flowers Weekly and it is based on the exercise of buying cut flowers every Wednesday at the Civic Center Farmer's Market in San Francisco. I know how some people feel about cut flowers, but I, like my Grandmother, am of the believe that we should enjoy flowers (receive them and give them) while we are alive. Living in San Francisco, with cats that love eating them, the best way for me to enjoy them is when I buy them on my way to work and enjoy them in my office.

Flowers Weekly

Again, I have not posted in a while. Since all I have is one follower, I guess, I don't feel too bad... But seriously, I should get this blogging thing together and try harder.
If you care to know, I carry my camera with me everywhere, do I care to take it out of my bag and actually use it? Yes, I do care, but I don't do that every day.
I am consistent in my inconsistency. I don't have the same routine every day. I do, but I don't. I am inconsistent at best. What I am consistent about is the way my photographs look. The way I see color, frame the image, etc. I don't take delicate pictures that look antique and romantic, even when I try, there is a sense of bold colors I can't get rid of...
Click on the title to see the series in Flickr. Here are a few. I try to go to the farmer's market every Wednesday on my way to work, there I try to buy flowers for my office. Although, I don't get to do this every week, I try at least...Didn't I say, inconsistent? If you know what kind of flowers these are, you are welcome to email me or comment here. I usually buy those I can afford and those I am attracted to when I am there. Reds and yellows seem to be popular in my book.

Blossoms

Fresh zucchini blossoms I found at the farmers' market today. Gorgeous to look at and delicious to eat. I discovered them last week and bought some to put on homemade pizza that turned out delish!! Tonight I made pasta with them. And also had homemade bread. Yes I made that myself too. How spoiled could I be? Well, don't be too jealous, no company tonight.
