I write because I want to. I don’t have to tell you anything. But the term “transparent” is becoming more and more popular these days. Gary Vaynerchuk, Jason Fried and Aaron Irizarry come to mind when I think of being transparent. But what we call the internet is really nothing more than a glorified mask that we wear to hide our true personalities. Meaning I can’t convey to you a certain emotion or feeling without using a stupid emoticon. Sure a picture is worth a thousand words, and I respect the art form of photography. But what I’m saying is that we can’t really get to know each other just over this digital medium. But Kyle, how can you say that? You met your wife on myspace and only met her 5 days (in person) before you tied the knot. Then call me crazy.
Project 365 Week 07
The project continues to be a challenge for me. Some have said congrats on making it this far, and thank you, but I still can’t imagine what it will feel like on something like day 229.
I was thinking about this the other night. With my dedication to this project, as well as my 52 Profiles project, plus working full-time and taking 7 hours of school, not to mention having a life outside of all this to spend time with my wife and friends, am I crazy? How can I possibly feel like I’m not accomplishing anything? Where is this leading me? What do I hope to gain from this?
Project 365 Week 06
I was bored with color this past week. When I first started taking photographs all I shot was black and white film. I think it’s a good way to learn about light and composition, but I think it can also become a crutch. There is always a challenge with color.
