these are from various random rolls, don’t fit anywhere, but deserve to see the light of day anyway. <br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/a_few_that_don’t_fit/1165/0006.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/a_few_that_don’t_fit/1165/0007.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/a_few_that_don’t_fit/1165/0008.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/>
A week ago, I went down to medicine park to assist <a href =”http://www.jeremycharles.com”>Jeremy Charles</a> with a little advertorial. Hold the reflector, keep the lights from blowing away, that sort of thing. While I was there, I had a little down time to walk up the main drag and shoot a few pics of the town, and while details were being decided, I was able to shoot the little kid who was the subject of the ad in question. It was nice to get out and shoot in the mode of dropping into a location, gestalting, and shooting pictures based on those impressions. <br /><br />It’s also always nice to work with a pro of Jeremy’s caliber, someone who knows their look, knows their gear, lights, who “gets it.” That said, working with a family of four who are inexperienced in front of the camera, and having two small kids in that mix, was stressful. <br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0009.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0010.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0011.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0012.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0013.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0014.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0015.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0016.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0017.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/oh_the_life_of_a_freelancer…/1164/0018.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/>
for once, i actually managed to Shoot pictures of mom from start to finish in the hospital. This visit was more than a little silly. She had a non-specific infection, possbly blood, possibly kidney, but they made her stay in the hospital for 4 days when she could have stayed at home. Ostensibly it was to monitor her, but I don’ think we would have done a worse job of that at home. Add to that the stress factor of being in the hospital, and the whole thing was kind of ridiculous. <br /><br /><span class=”caption” font-size=”smaller”>Mom the day she went to the dialysis clinic with a fever.</span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/mom_was_in_the_hospital…/1166/0001.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” font-size=”smaller”>The first cultures, which were the only ones that came back positive.</span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/mom_was_in_the_hospital…/1166/0002.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” font-size=”smaller”>Hallway going into Presbyterian Tower, OU Med center. </span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/mom_was_in_the_hospital…/1166/0003.jpg” class=”photo” alt=”Photos”/><br /><br /><span class=”caption” font-size=”smaller”>Mom coming back from the vending machines.

All I have to say is I was really off that night. A lot of blurry pics from too low a shutter speed. So that’s why the coverage isn’t as good as it should be. <br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0001.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0002.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0003.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0004.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0005.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0006.jpg” alt=”Photos” />
