Alison - Day 29 -- untitled.

started experimenting more with water images lately. That is, after all, why I have a waterproof camera.

Alison: Day # 28 and Day # 29

Day 28: Okay, so January 28 was my 24th birthday. This is my cake. The lighting was right & the candles were wompy. Before my family and two good friends were even done singing the song, all but one candle had gone wompy like the orange one is in this picture.

The cake, though, OH MY GOD, delicious! My mom made it. =]











Day 29: This was taken the very next morning. My dad and I were standing in the kitchen talking about Olive and the morning news. We both noticed how bright it seemed outside the kitchen window, but neither of us thought anything of it.

About ten minutes later, when we walked outside, it became apparent to my dad the reason it was so unbelieveably bright outside. There was a (double actually, but the top one was so faint it didn't show up in the photo) rainbow starting on one side of our yard, bowing up over the house, and coming down on the other side of the yard.

This is the roof of our house. The kitchen window faces to the right of this picture. It was apparent, once we were outside, why it seemed so bright out the window -- the rainbow was just overhead!

I'm still floored that this rainbow both started and ended on/over our property. Too freaking cool.

Mat Ryan: Jan 29th

I was messing around with lighting and a candle at my friend Kerry's house. I haven't edited it, it just turned out cool on it's own.

29th January 2009

That tree stands in front of my window. It has to carry a lot of snow at the moment, but it makes him beautiful! =)

Oz: The Return to the Land of Oz

Day 21 – Take my picture day – While at an after party at sundance this women drunkenly approaches me to take photos of her. I tell her I am a famous photographer from New York. She demands that I give her instructions on how to pose like a famous model. I am drunk too, and fumble with the controls and the framing. I tell her she is naturally beautiful, I believe this to be true. She is dissatisfied, with my photos of her, she is ugly she states. I have failed again…

Day 22 – Summer in winter day – The warehouse lets out early, so I skip across the street and photograph the windmills made of tin. They look so cool against the stark blue sky.

Day 23 – Close to the end day – Things at the fest are winding down and I am tired. I am waiting to go home to my Vermont home. Posters are everywhere screaming about the last showings before it all ends

Day 24 – The last day – The Egyptian looks so cool at night. I trip and fall on my face after meeting a film maker. They can’t all be gems. It starts to snow around 12am. I get drunk and make out with a boy who cannot dance. Mistakes are around every corner. I choose the less complicated of two evils and am subsequently disappointed.

Day 25 – Lucky Travel day – I used to love to fly, now I hate it. It seems like every trip I take lasts an eternity. Due to sleep deprivation and possibly a hangover I leave my camera at the gate in Utah, and don’t even realize until a flight attendant makes an announcement. The camera is returned to me, and out of sheer panic I photograph the gate to prove to myself how fucking lucky I am that my device didn’t get stolen.

Day 26 – Welcome home day – If feels good to be home, and we have a potluck for Jenna’s birthday with delicious cake. Joey looks like a goof, and makes a big mess, but I love him anyway.

Day 27 – fortune day – The irony of finding this fortune upon my arrival from a 6 week expedition of self discovery is not lost on me. Perhaps I am destined to be a wandering soul…

Day 28 – thermometer day – Everything is frozen and looks like jewelry.

Day 29 – snow day – The snow keeps coming. It looks beautiful. It looks like it will never stop. I secretly hope it dosent…
