A photo a day for the whole month of October.  Taken with a little point & shoot film camera.  I'm calling it Embedded InThe Emulsion.  An idea that centers around digital media and how we think it will last forever.  The bottom line is we still don't know how long digital media will last.  The possibility of losing images due to some hardware issue is far greater than an image ever fading off of the emulsion.  I understand why film has lost its appeal in our society, we don't want to wait X amount of days to see what it looks like, we want it now.  Thats just how we are.  We are in light speed when it comes to media and data.  But I also think there is a push to get back to film, a push to slow down and really think about the photo at hand.  Long live film. I know I want to start shooting more of it.  I really enjoyed this little project and I'm hoping you are too. 11 more days and 11 more  blog post to go.  Take care folks.....

They got good taco's boys and girls. Located right across from Wal-Mart in Auburndale, Florida.  I got about 5 tacos on this day. The Green sauce was smoking hot! Usually at other taco stands the green sauce isn't that hot. This one is HoT.  I off centered this photo because of the bright red but for some reason it didn't make it onto the film. O well, if you need a taco and your in the great city of Auburndale, stop on by The Real Taco.  Tell them that Rp sent you.

My life Embedded In The Emulsion for the whole month of October 2010.  One picture a day for the whole month, taken with a point and shoot film camera. Using ISO 800 speed film.  Some days will have notes and some will not. Click on the links you never know where you might end up.  It should be fun and hopefully you will enjoy the images.

Friday Nature


Friday Nature is back this week.  I have no idea what the real name of this flower is.  If you know and want to share please do.  The weekend is here! My family is looking forward to The Hold Steady live at The Social.  Its sold out so it should a wild concert.  So here is to the weekend. Enjoy some nature, music and some family.  Without them we would be lost in this place we call Earth. On that note bartender make it a double whiskey, coke no ice.................

Yellow shirt


One of my favorite things to do everyday is check out Shirt.Woot.com  they sell a different shirt everyday of the year. Some good some bad, you have to catch them on their good days.  I have bought 3 total shirts so far. The yellow shirt being one of them. I thought the design was really clever. You can't tell from the picture but its the human body with the birds in place of the organs jpg image. When I got the shirt in the mail. I opened it up and a light appeared in the box because it was so yellow.  It didn't look that yellow on the site, O well, its one hell of a shirt. Now Alison and I both have yellow shirts that we can wear when we go out together!  Aaaa thats so sweet. Couples that dress the same are awesome!! If you ask Alison she would tell you, 'O hell no they are not.' By the way on this day I had to change my yellow shirt but its only a matter of time.......

Friday Nature


One of my favorite trees is the Magnolia tree. This one is in my back yard.  There are a lot of these trees around Polk County, which I never notice until I owned one myself.  Most of them are blooming up a storm.  I was a little worried about this one because it had blooms on it but they were not blooming.  Well long and behold we got our first one on Monday!  The only thing that smells better than a Magnolia bloom is my wife.  Enjoy your weekend
