So these are a few shots from my 260 final. These are images from three of the four triptychs, for a general idea. I'm trying to explore feelings of entrapment and denial through the subconscious, and how a hypothetical person struggles with repression. Each set will cover a different part of the struggle...what do you guys think?
Playing with ideas of repetition and how something everyone has can be different in each case.
A series involving readymades and simple constructs. I build a simple monument, document it, then break it apart. While taking the image, I make sure to include the physical space the construct is in. By doing this, I not only document the construct I've made, but also give the objects a sense of time and place. I still have more to shoot, any suggestions on anything? Shot with a Pentax Asahi 6x7 with Fuji 160c
Here's them posters I promised ya. Hope you like it. I took your advice, Kate.
I almost forgot photo and (ahem) design credits...
love, Augie
Hi everyone! I forgot to share my new website with you guys, let me know what you think. Hope you all have a great turkey day! Oh and this a holiday ad I shot recently for a local shop- you should stop in the chocolate shop and indulge! Yum!
Today in the labs we had an incident. The least used dry mount press became disgruntled and attacked Augie. Augie is fine but the dry mount press may be less fortunate. We currently still deciding the final fate of the dry mount press, whether or not to try to relocate it to an uninhabited location in northern Canada or humanely put it down. Till then, BEWARE! This may happen to you! (dramatic reverb)
This has been a public announcement brought to you by Checkout.
this is florence, italy. we are waiting in line to see a sculpture of a naked man. i dont think thats why marta's sad.what were you thinking about, nick?
For my final I am working exclusively with out-of-focus shots that are just to express the simple aspects of a photograph, which include color and form. So, I've gotten out to shoot for it once and I got a few images I like so I'm just curious for feedback. Blurry enough? Am I heading in a good direction with them?
Keep and eye on this nifty new feature. Be a part of the community and support the people who will support you. It's important. You need this.
To view events, open the link in a new tab.
I want to post art openings, guest lectures, show deadlines. Anything about artists in Bozeman and MSU. And maybe even the surrounding area.
Also, if there are any events that you would like posted, email me at augustcary at gmail dot com. Or email Cam at cfosterphoto at gmail dot com.

Followed by a guest lecture in the Procrastinator, given by alum and Bozeman native Brian Van't Hull at 7:00. Should be impressive. He has worked on The Nightmare Before Christmas, done visual effects on all the LOTR movies, Forrest Gump, I Robot, King Kong and last but not least, (Oscar winning effects on) Coraline.
If you are interested in film and visual effects, you should go and be enriched. And show support for the School of Film and Photography and Natural History Film Making. SFPNHFM. Whoa.
Sorry for being such short notice...I'm trying my hardest!
Hey, ya!
Applications for Upheaval are due Friday, Nov 20th. That, my fellow students, is this friday. You may submit up to 20 pieces, and it costs ten bucks plus ten percent of sales. Do it! Put some padding in your wallet, or maybe buy some art and put padding in someone else's wallet. Buy a gift.
Remember, we make money not art.
The Upheaval (a revolution of the arts) show/sale is open from Nov 30th until Dec 3rd. Booyah
love, Augie
So I can't really decide which way to go with this cookie layout. Any thoughts? I'm aiming more towards the industrial look rather than the home setting with the tea cup and pot. Just let me know.
the answer is not really...some i did but mostly they're twisted and consciously manipulated interpretations of dreams i had...or my interpretation of others' dreams......maybe THIS is all a dream......anyway, the titles are in comments as usual.
And these are my Blueberry Pancake pages. The text has been the hardest part and the layout of the recipe page. Also I was wondering what you guys thought of numbering the pages? I guess I would need to if I have a recipe index but I wasn't sure if I should just number every other page or all pages???
Here is one recipe layout for my book. This is the recipe that my Mom has baked for us since we were really little. It's delicious and has homemade crust. I highly recommend Pork Sausage and Fresh Mushrooms.
Three images shot for my book. It's a book of portraits shot with very narrow depth of field with a strong focus on the eyes.
Luciano, one of the three photogs here in Siena took us to a cool hill about 35km out of Siena where we could watch the sunrise in Tuscany. Max, Chris, Whitney and I had a great time and the sunrise was really amazing. There were some random "modern art" structures just jetting out of the ground, hence the first three pictures.
PS sorry for the jpg artifacts, blogger smashed the crap outta 'em.
Freshly delivered this morning, photo checkout has received a new 16x20 contact printing frame from Bostick & Sullivan. It's made of elm, and still has that new-contact-printing-frame smell (varnish). It's available to check out now, if you're interested.
Also, while I'm thinking of it, checkout acquired two Garmin GPS units during the summer. Those of you participating in the Bozeman Survey Project may find these to be particularly helpful accessories.
Another subtle and recent addition to checkout's camera fleet recently came in the form of a Lomo LC-A donated to the department by Professor Christina Z. Anderson. It's an itty-bitty 35mm film camera, with a fixed 32mm 2.8 lens, and its only automatic feature is exposure. It's a little fancier than a Holga, but quite a bit smaller, so if you like saturated colors and a bit of vignetting, you should give this little camera a try.
