Life Through A Lens

If you contacted me prior to this posting about a photo nothing will change. For the rest of you, here is a contest. I want each of you to vote for the photo you like the most. You can look through the blog, or visit my Flikr HERE. Please either post here or email me your favorite HERE.

After two weeks (maybe three depending on number of votes), the top two will be posted again and pricing. So this means, pass my link around, get my name out there, because if I only have three votes total... whats the point? So if you work for a company where some may know me (cough Dani, Tasha, Nate, Beth cough), or a really amazing friend that wants to help support my work, I expect some work. For example reposting on your blog/facebook/twitter, sharing my blog with coworkers/friends, just give you a few ideas. :)

I think Quinton will like this a lot. I went through with a two different types of post editing, creating a soft and a harder image. Tell me what you think. :)

As you can tell from the next set of photos, there was quite a bit of walking done. In fact, I was sore when I woke up this morning. That is a bad sign. Well I had a great time with my photo-walking buddy and hopefully I will get the chance to see her work as well soon. We started at the Market, worked our way back up to the Westlake Center, then over to the Space Needle/Science Center, down to the waterfront and the piers and then back through the Market and up to Westlake Center again.

It took quite a bit of work to finally figure out which ones I was going to post here, there are others on my flikr account that did not quite make the cut, so head on over and check it out (My flikr). Well more waste of space here are the pictures.

I want to first start out that the artist you are hearing is Quinton himself. He did his first ever live performance this past Tuesday at the Q-Cafe up near Ballard. Sadly there were 26 performers, so he only had five minutes on stage! He did an amazing job, and more importantly BETTER keep it up.

I never do portraits, which should be and will be pretty obvious over my posts (unless I receive some killer reviews from people other than Quinton). I thought these turned out really well, and it may change in the distant future but, I am good with buildings, mountains and other STATIONARY objects. :)

After his single performance, we were not done listening yet. So we changed venues to the roof top of Quinton's apartment complex. Up here I had a great perspective of the city, and snapped a few quick ones.
