So I’m sitting here and going through the last camera download and I come across all these funky images..

While we were at my mom’s, Chad took the camera and was trying to get pictures of “the need”.

Of course, if you’re going to take photos of the little ball-o-spaz, you have to speed up the camera – and even then, the pokey response time of the Sony adds yet another challenge.

Chad didn’t know this… or really cared if the camera was on 1/30th of a second vs. 1/125. He just snapped away.

The result were these sort of accidental, transcendental images – freed from the formality of composition… from exposure… from focus… They’re freed from the very craft which is photography.

I dug just playing with them in PhotoShop…. My little budding fine arts photographer…. breathing in new enthusiasm for this craft through his innocent eyes.

I’m not blogging – I’m speaking in incomplete sentences.
