my photography page thingy
hobo renee has one and so i looked around and thought, "sure, what the hell?"
anywhoozles, most of you have probably seen these pics, but i'm in class now, so i'll have more posted in the coming weeks, i'm sure. i might even take the time to scan a couple that i haven't or some such shit. enjoy. http://glowbelly.deviantart.com |
The Elvis one is my fav :o
|
that's an old 'un.
chojin used it as some background for some dancing game of his. :) |
I liked Queen takes pawn. ;)
|
thank you very much, but that is not my work.
jerk >: |
oh sorry
|
I liked the leg shot. ;D
The pattern the windowblinds cast on your leg looks like striped panty hose. ^_^ |
|
hoooooray!!
|
|
I really like your photos glow, I wish i could be as half as good.
|
MERMAIDHOLD makes me go mmmmmmmmmmm...
i like your photos a lot :) they made my eyes pop out. there's a thread around the middle of the 1st art shit page of my stuff if you want to look... |
looked at your stuff, rez. awhile ago, actually. i like it. i like the manips more than the straight snaps. they're more interesting photos when you mess with them.
and thanks, mr. suspecto. i'm learning a lot in my classes. hopefully i'll have more to show for it soon. |
That is some primo stuff Ms. Glow and Mr. Danno.
|
aw shucks. please don't make me feel like i have curtsy for you now.
|
that mermaid thing looks like you're looking up somebody's nose :eek
i likey |
it's hard for me to look at it as anything else but what i know it is. it's funny to hear what other people think of it. i'm going to print mermaid hold again for my photo class, but i'm going to crop off the top a bit, which will make the image a bit more abstract.
oh, and i uploaded two more pics today. |
Great stuff, Glow...my new favorite website :)
|
continues to be top notch... please please keep at it glow :)
|
|
hey just saw all this, again, top.
as soon as i saw organic i got "nature is ancient" in my head :) |
thanks!
i just got a couple more of my prints back from my photo 1 class and i should get some more on tuesday. i'm going to upload the whole lot of them then. my professor told me that she's happy that i'm continuing in photography and thinks that i have some real potential. she also wants me to be her assistant next semester. i'm so lucky to be able to be doing that which i love. |
i hear that... i'm looking at internships i've been offered at UCDavis once i transfer there, it's mildly exciting, but 2 years from now :)
i've got 15 new prints about to go up on the website before winter break. |
hurryup already
|
Mermaid hold is cool. i remember seeing a show on a lady that took beautiful photo's of the statues in grave yards and it reminded me of that.
|
thanks, mr. fartin. the statue highgate cemetary one is, well, a statue in highgate cemetary that was hand colored in photoshop. :)

ang again, it's stellar, as usual, fantastic composition, perspective, everything you already know, and i finally went and made one of them my background.. hope you dont mind if i use the Lynch and Sons photo for awhile as a background..
and am i the only one who checks this anymore? even i'm 12 days late and no one else is here! it's not fair.. youre amazing, glowbelly. edit: re: cliched self portrait: :lol |
I used one of her new ones in a background for our mix :>
|
thanks so much, rez. i truly appreciate the comments. as a beginning student of photography i really try to emphasize technique and composition. i figure that i'll find my niche along the way. and no, of course i don't mind you using one of my snaps as your background image. just let people know who i am, if they ask.
chojin makes pretty background dancy color things with some of my photos. in the next coming weeks there's going to be a lotta activity there. i'm taking a digital imaging course this semester. hold on to your hats. :) |
now you know damn well i don't wear a hat so i don't even know what that's all about
but i likey your id picture thingymabobbermajig |
i have a picture of you in a paper bag hat
|
GB, I love the photo looking through the arms of the bench. Very nice indeed.
|
thanks, sam. it means a lot to me that you checked all that out. :)

i'm looking forward to it!

You've got talent. I tried taking a photography class in my highschool recently, but it was more developing your own prints than composition and stuff. That's the second-year class. And I'm a senior. :(
|
take it in college!
i updated it again. i sure did. yup. only 2 images this time. clickity clickity clock |
Glowbelly,
do you like Man Ray? The girl I was dating in college was an art history major and took a class on Dada. I looked through her books more than my own, and I fell in love with his work (not so much the rayographs, though)... unfortunately, he's about the only photographer I know :( |
i laughed at the superman pic of your dad :). well done balancing humor with what you were actually trying to pass across. this is as close to my definition of "art" i've seen in recent memory.
i looked at the other one and thought it was really good, then i read the description (see, i pay attention) and then thought it was really really good. its hard to be subtle with things like this, people inclined to do such things usually hit you in the face with it and you're left feeling uncomfortable. but this was real, graceful, and even sublime. again, very well done :) i'm getting links to more of the same pics i took from the last time, but these werent added into the theme for obvious reasons which will be explained when they go up. :) |
benny: man ray, while not one of my absolute favorite photographers, did do a whole lot for the medium and surrealist movement itself. his photographs tended to come off as "accidents" when in fact he spent a lot of time on technique to acheive the effect of his images.
some of my favorite photographers that you may want to check out include: jock sturges (make sure you are not on a work computer when you view his stuff. there is a thread somewhere on this board that i started about him, if you want some links), cindy sherman (mostly self-portraiture that is extremely derivative), garry winogrand (street photographer) and anthony goicolea (does digital manips using cloned versions of himself as a white upper class adolescent male). i also really admire my instructor's work. her name is masumi hayashi. she does panoramic photo collages where she captures a 360 degree view by taking many smaller photos and then puts them back together after the shots are developed. if you are really interested in finding some good photographers, check out the only skin deep project at http://www.icp.org/osd/preview/index.html. rez: thanks so much for the nice comments. it's funny that you mention the second image, because it was the one that received the most negative (for lack of a better word) criticism in my class today. i plan on reworking this piece and will most likely end up removing my face from the bottom right, as it tends to crowd up the composition and take away from the image of my father. i think this is one that looks better on screen than in print. as always, i'm looking forward to seeing more of your stuff. |
before i read the descrip, i thought the face got in the way and made the whole thing really "hallmark"
but art isnt just about composition and what "works" in a photo, and after reading it sounded like it needed to be there and even lent it credence. so take it out if you want, but after seeing this one, i'd imagine it'd be your parents and a vacuum in the corner, like you're missing something. i'm not sure actually... i dont know if i should babble about composition since i only know the really elementary aspects of it... i liked the both of them. there. :) |
well that's good enough for me. :)
i redid "untitled" (god i hate naming things that) and handed it in to my photo prof. she seemed to like it better, which is good, but i'm gonna keep the original up on devart for awhile. i updated my page with more snaps. these were taken with my boyfriend in mind, as a way of capturing where we live so we'll always have a personal history of our first home together. they're recognizable to us, but are a bit abstract to the outside viewer. hope you like. http://glowbelly.deviantart.com |
Your technical skill is getting better and better Karen, nice one.
|
thanks, sammy!
it helps that i have superior technical equipment to work with ;) |
the little things in and around the house that make that one place distinguishable from everything else.
i've tried taking photos like these, and all i'll say about em is that i need to keep trying... :rolleyes yours however, continue to be excellent in every regard. i especially liked how a couple of shots fooled me into thinking they were black and white until one of the details, the details that make the place "your house," are in color and hence get the most attention. NICE one for that. :) |
thanks. i was really trying to focus on the bursts of color among all the gray, black and white. all of those shots are presented "as is," except for the dancing window one, which i converted to b&w in ps. the original has so little color in it, that i thought it worked better as a b&w photo.
|
updated again.
i added the reworked version of untitled. i like it better. it's subtler and doesn't look all hallmarky. there's a pottery piece that i did up there too, and an abstract extended photo collage of the frank gehry building here in cleveland. the latter was for my digital imaging class. um, and i did a panoramic photo collage of my apartment, or at least the part i spend the most time in. hope you likey. http://glowbelly.deviantart.com |
Was the apartment one tough to do? I liked it alot.
|
shooting it wasn't hard at all. i just used a tripod set up in one spot in my living room and took all the pictures at 50mm (it's the closest lens setting to what your eye sees, although i think it's smaller with a digi cam). i started at eye level and went in a 360 degree circle all around. then worked my way up and down, doing the same thing.
putting it together was sorta difficult, mostly because my computer is running out of space and the file had over 100 separate layers before i flattened it. plus each individual picture had to be shrunk down to 3"x2". that was the most time consuming part of it. it's a fun exercise. i think i'm gonna try doing it outside once it starts getting nicer out. |
i like your living space. those panoramic things always look like theyre hard to do but everyone says theyre not.
i'm not too hot about the ghery shot, something about the top and bottom of it irritates me, great colors though. the remade family shot looks great, didnt do what i thought it would do, like leave a vacuum, well done. the pottery is... wow. i think it was neat to create but, not to be rude, but it looks like one of those presents you get that you have to try really hard not to impusively made a wicked face at. dont stop :) |
:lol at the pottery comment!
it's really hard to make coil pottery look good and the color is much better in person, but i completely understand what you are saying. i HATE the gehry building piece. it's not my style at allllllll and what's sad about it is that the project that we were assigned would have been super cool if i wasn't restricted to the building. it also may have been a bit better if i was able to shoot the inside of the building, but i missed class that day cause i was sicky icky. the cool things about those colors is that they are not manipulated in any way. panoramic photo collages are not only fun but definitely easy to do. you can create some super cool looking images out of them too, but they are time consuming. i like the family one better without my face in it. i think the original was a bad case of photoshop overload and it created a super sappy effect. thanks so much for commenting on my stuff, rez. i really look forward to hearing what you think about it all. i like your honesty too. good show! |
It is all very impressive and wonderful, i especially like untitled, it makes me all giddy inside when i read the little description. ;D
|
you are a sneaky little turtle
|
I like the panoramic one....your apt looks pretty groovy karen!
|
|
there pictures i see sometimes that when i see it, i dont know what it really does, but i just hear things that go along with it, some i know, some are vague vibrations, thats one thing that lets me know it's a good photo. something else that happenes is that it shifts my mood entirely, that happened here too.
i'm surfing the net feeling pretty static and neutral, and i come across your new photos, and i'm stuck in ambience while i look at the solitary branches floting in monotony. strange for something in such monotone to give a strange sense of warmth. excellent photos again. the beat one on the other hand, made me see red almost instantly. my current girlfriend used to be a victim to abuse, and i swear to shit it pisses me off like nothing else. to think that someone like you was subject to fucking idiocies like that just adds on to it. i guess it's effecive, but it was pretty damn jarring from the last photo i saw. the four views of a door are friggin excellent from a design point. imagining these put next to each other as a series excites me already. ridiculously subtle, simple, and making elegance out of the ordinary. i hope presenting these really goes well fo you. i'm working on more photo-manips like last time. putting structures, colors, and light together. it's way time consuming, but fun as hell. i dont know when i'll put them out. if you have aim or msn we could msg each other with what we have :) |
wow. thank you, rez.
i can't wait to see your manips. i really liked the last ones i saw. erm, i'm gonna go stop being embarrassed now. :o |
this is the first of a series of experiments that i am working on:
|
caption contest.
no, really, this looks like an ad for scotch tape... maybe because hp did/does the same thing. so if youre looking to go into advertising, i'd say youre halfway there ;) i'd fill in the white spots with a grayer tinge though, so that it doesnt look incomplete. nice :) |
why am i always so late in replying to your comments?
anyways, the tape thing was part of an assignment that we had to do in my digi-imaging class. my teacher was hell bent on getting us to do some panoramic photo collages and i was sick of seeing the same large landscapes done over and over again. i thought it would be interesting to take a small, everyday object to create the same kind of image. i recently printed each picture at about 7x10 and drymounted it. it's pretty large. i think i'm gonna do some more like this, and try to frame them in plexi. i was even considering printing this one on transparancies...who knows! anyways, it's that time again. i uploaded 3 pics from a walk i took with brian on wednesday. we were looking for a tree that i want to photograph for a wedding present, but couldn't find the right one. http://glowbelly.deviantart.com |
that watercolors one is fantastic :(
it is my new background :( |
i think you're fantastic :o
|
the water color one is THE SHIT. damn!
in regards to your PM, i now know what you mean by impressionist type photos, well, i knew what you were getting at, but not what you were thinking about. now i get it, but i'm in a mode again, and it's got nothing to do with it :( you'll see later. |
that one water shot has about 5000 different pictures in it alone. i could mess with that all day. the one up there is actually a cropped version of the original.
the impression photo isn't a mistake photo. i showed it to another board and they were all like "way to explain away a bad photo" and i told 'em to shut up, cause i took it that way on purpose. they are a very technical lot and don't always get me :( |
technical whores piss me off.
theyre pissants who're complete snobs with some half-witty quip about photos they dont "get" while they also dont get what photography is for. |
Allof your photos are really cool. I like the experimental tape one and the filimental the best.
|
|
for someone who's seen enough cezanne, what you just did was way cool.
you actually managed to make it look like he would, which is everything falling out of its place. the wine bottle looks about to tip over, the fruit about to fall off the table (classic, btw). still lives, to me, are numb and boring, but i just appreciated the knack with which that was done. |
..
|
GET OUT OF MY THREAD YOU SPAMMING WHORE.
and thanks, rez. i took about 30 snaps of that setup before i got the right one. i keep finding myself being inspired by the old french painters. there's some new snaps over there, by the way. i'm not going to put the link in this post again cause i'm sick of typing it. |

post your pictures in your own thread.
i don't want mine tainted with your silly goth bloody suicide murder stuff. |

peddle your horrid shit somewhere else. |
here, i'll try a different approach:
aqueous, or whatever...i started this thread to show MY photography. if you want to show off your little movies or whatever, it would be NICE if you started your own thread. that way, MY thread won't get fucking cluttered with pre-adolescent homo-gay insults. i wouldn't have been as nasty towards you if you would have taken a moment to look at what i had to offer and perhaps offer some insight into what you saw. but see, you didn't. you just hopped into a thread labeled "MY photography page thingy" started by "glowbelly" and posted a pic of a semi-pretty gal all gothed up with blood along with a link to your site. see, i'm a nice gal. i actually went to your site and when i realized that i had to watch movies and music videos in order to get anything out of it, i decided against doing so. i didn't feel like waiting for shit to load so i could call it shit. understand? good. now skedaddle before i really get pissy. :) |
