Revival and a new path

I have decided upon something. I want to revisit and reimagine an old series I photographed, Still. I never truely finished it. The series of images was based off the relatively quiet release of the Still, the second part of All That Could Have Been. Each song evokes an emotional response and I want to recapture that. I have also decided to try an experiment. I have the supplies to make digital negatives. But I want to see what happens when I print straight images on the clear sheets. I have an idea of what I want to happen and then the second part is up in the air. I hope what I am imagining is what occurs.

Take a sad song and make it better..

Wow. It has been well over a year since my last post. A lot of things have happened in that year. For one I got married to my best friend and my soul mate , Miranda. Then roughly seven months after our amazing day I come home to find out that I am going to be a daddy. It changes everything in my life. I begin thinking about names. Which then makes me think of where I got my names from. Which then leads me to think of what are my ten favorite songs. (My future son's name comes from one.) So here we go! 

1. The Beatles- Hey Jude
2. The Beatles- Let It Be
3. Nine Inch Nails- We're In This Together
4. Senses Fail- Calling All Cars
5. Nirvana- You Know You're Right
6. Puddle Of Judd- Blurry
7. Nine Inch Nails- Something I Can Never Have
8. Nine Inch Nails- The Day The World Went Away
9. The Beatles- I Want You (She's So Heavy)
10. Senses Fail- Everyday Is A Struggle

So there it is. It is a varied list that has helped me through some hard times in my life. And it has also inspired me for the future (Jude Ainsley Thissen). Let me know what you think.
