I was going to post later today, but I forgot about work. So today is going to be a short blog. It's a gloomy day today, well sort of. It's all rainy and wet out, but it's almost 70 degrees. Not something you come by often in Washington. Work is going to be crazy. My town has this little festival thing called Oyster Run. No, it doesn't involve people running a marathon hold oysters. It's pretty much just a big biker fest. People come from all over the state on their harley's, etc. for a weekend of drinking, music and ogling other biker's shiny possessions. But mostly drinking. It would be a perfect time to pull out my camera and go downtown where all the action is at, but seeing as I have a ginormous hatred for large crowds and an over-abundance of noise, I think I'm going to pass. Not too excited about work tonight, We've got a band who's playing all weekend and bikers just love that.
Anyway, instead of posting one of my own photos, I want to share my favorite photographer. I would be very surprised if anyone who knows anything about photography doesn't know who Annie Leibovitz is. She's incredibly diverse and has an incredible eye. Her photos are gorgeous, here's just one:
Amazing right?!
In case you're not sure who's featured in this photo, they are Julianne Moore and Michael Phelps.
Although I don't really care for her use of celebrity subjects in this series, it doesn't at all take away from how amazing all of them turn out. This photo is from her Disney Dreams Portraits series.
This woman has some mad skill. With her camera, and with editing software :p
Well have a wonderful day, and check out some of Annie's work if you haven't already. :)
