i shall imagine life

I was in Chicago, IL and Bloomington, IN this week. I'll post a few shots from Chicago soon. First, a few shots from an impromptu photoshoot in Indiana. I was in Bloomington visiting my friend Kyle.

When I arrived at his house, one of the first things I noticed was a metallic lamp with a red bulb hanging from the ceiling above a chair. I filed it away in my mind as a possible photograph location.

After a great Turkish dinner at a quaint restaurant called Anatolia, we went back to the house and listened to a few LPs from his awesome record collection.

Then, feeling nostalgic, we decided to go out in his back yard and catch some fireflies...ah, the memories...

(Note: fireflies are hard to shoot, especially without a tripod! you can see them at the top left and bottom right of the inside of the jar. Click on the photo for a larger view.)


Anyways, back inside, I noticed the light fixture again and asked Kyle if he'd be willing to sit in for a photoshoot. He graciously agreed, and here are the results:







BTW...Kyle is really not a creepy guy, he's just really good at appearing that way in photos!
