Marathon cabs and cameras in your head.




Reid replaced the lexus with this. I think it's perfect. As you can see from the pictures, he looks like he belongs in the car. It's a marathon checker cab. It weighs 6400 pounds. If you placed it on a giant see-saw, you'd have to put 2 SUVS on the other side to balance it. It's lovely. It photographs beautifully well. These pictures basically took themselves. There's a lot of technique to learn in photography, but learning to see the potential picture before you even pick up the camera is a where it starts. Everywhere I go, I'm subconsciously location scouting. (That might be why I get lost all the time). Anything that looks interesting I mentally frame a picture around. Learning to see the beauty in the chaos is what photography is about. The most important camera is your mind. Walk around with your eyes wide open. When you shoot digital, there's no reason not to try everything. Last week I was driving by the most amazing sunset. Probably in the top 5 sunsets ever and I was in a place where I had the city skyline perfectly silhouetted against it. Did I have my camera? No. Bad bad max.

I just got photoshop CS2. It's pretty cool. Anyone got any favorite plug-ins or actions to recommend?
