night portraits

I actually took this because I really liked the light, and I wanted to remember it for future studio use. Single, harsh light can be good, even from directly above the subject.

last tulsa shit

I’m posting this from the backyard of a cookout after pride parade. I promise, this is the last of the tulsa photos. Until I go to tulsa again in a week or two. <br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/last_tulsa_shit/1160/0040.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/last_tulsa_shit/1160/0041.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/last_tulsa_shit/1160/0042.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/last_tulsa_shit/1160/0043.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/last_tulsa_shit/1160/0044.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/last_tulsa_shit/1160/0045.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/last_tulsa_shit/1160/0046.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/>

skate photos...

I said at the time on twitter, that I wished for a wider lens, but really I think these aren’t bad at all. A camera that can shoot sequences would be nice, and I could have shot more varied things with more lenses, but I think sometimes limitations can drive creativity, and that’s what happened here.<br /><br />For everybody that’s tired of Tulsa pictures and posts, don’t worry, I’ve got one more small post and then it’s back to OKC pictures. And yeah, I could have put up all these pictures at once, but would you have looked as much at them, seen them as well? Anyway, there’ll be a lot of pictures from pride parade hopefully, and I’ve a few from this week too. <br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0027.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0028.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0029.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0030.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0031.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0032.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0033.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0034.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0035.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0036.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0037.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0038.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/skate_photos…/1161/0039.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/>

More Tulsa, With Cars!

SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY… was when I took these. Sunday morning, mostly, although the car show was in the afternoon. i really wasn’t that impressed visually with the cars… i liked their style, I thought the work was impressive, but visually to me cars are just a big dead thing in the frame. If I’d been reporting on the car show, I would have picked out little details, but as it was I was just walking around with Rachel and Gretchen, all of us trying not to die in the heat. <br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0001.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0002.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0003.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0004.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0005.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0006.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0007.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/more_tulsa,_with_cars!/1162/0008.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br />Coming soon (after I take a nap to kill the hangover): The skate sessions.
