Rose Wind Jerome.
art, photographyI got a package in the mail the other day with some very pretty stamps on it.
I was already pretty excited about that, then I opened it up and saw a new photo zine thingy from Rose!
It’s all about discarded umbrellas. It made me think about all the shitty days that must have happened to all those people who gave up on their umbrellas like that.
It also made me think of that Rihanna jam.
Thanks Rose!

Stephen Berkman.
Costumes, animals, art, photographyI don’t know much about Stephen Berkman, except that his other-worldly images have the power to make you smile with inspiration and freak the hell out of you at the same time.
Most interesting is how he gathers heavily from the late 1800’s to create a vibe of surreal whimsey, particularly his use of old-timey ambrotype technology (positive image burned on to a sheet of glass, as opposed to daguerreotype, in which the image is exposed to polished silver). I couldn’t decide on which image I liked the best, so I just included all my favs. Here’s to a delightfully nightmarish weekend!

Be Safe.

The country’s birthday is tomorrow and before everyone starts priming themselves for an all day booze-a-thon, I just want to remind everyone to be safe. We all know that things have a potential to go wrong when strong drink and advanced machinery get mixed. So please, don’t drink and take shitty fireworks photos.
There’s no greater tragedy that can happen on this national holiday than cycling through your photos on the 5th and realizing you took about 50 pics of blurry amorphous light blobs. Lifehacker’s got some tips for good fireworks pics this year.
And if you were planning on using a flash then just give me your camera right now and go take a time out.
Thanks to Chase for the pic.
