Color fail

Hey web savvy people: what's the deal with the colors on this blog? I never really noticed until I saw the image of the girl's arm with hair comb on Adam's website vs. his blog post.
Is it just my browser? I run safari...I realize most use firefox.

Check it out!

First Digital Montage

Bozeman Survey

These 2 images were taken of Bozeman Creek from the same bridge on Sourdough trail. The only difference is a slightly different angle of view and a 3 year time gap between the 2 photos. The top one was made in 2006 and the bottom was made this morning. Amazing to see how the flow of the river has changed, and that the tree with the swing no longer exists. The stump from the tree is now in the middle of the creek.

dreams and stuff

so the vibe i got is that color is good...is there something you dont like about them?

Get your work published on 1x.com

On Saturday I got an image published on 1x.com. For all of the fine art photographers out there, (which is just about everyone enrolled) OneExposure is a major website that allows any photographer to submit images, but photos must pass a screening process before appearing on the site.

Just looking down the photo blog here, I see several images that would probably get published on the site.

When you have an image published, your photo will appear on the homepage for at least a little while. Most of photos I've seen on the homepage have received at least 1,000 unique views, which is really great exposure for your work. My image has received over 3,000 unique views and other photos I've seen on the homepage have received 8,000 or 9,000 views.

Redesigned site. New work. Take a look

DIY Tabletop Lightbox

I was messing around with my camera today and remembered an "instructable" that I created 3 years ago on a lightbox I made for 10 bucks, and pretty much served (its destroyed now) its purpose while I had it. I thought it might be of use to some of you who don't want to spend a lot of dough, so here ya go... http://www.instructables.com/id/Light-Studio-for-Photographers-Tabletop/

Paper Pinhole?

Hey friends, found this while stumbling around the interweb. The instructions are there as well, they look more complicated then I would have hoped but your all educated people right? http://www.pinhole.cz/en/pinholecameras/dirkon_01.html

Just Trying Things Out...

Since the weather was so nice today I got out and shot a bit. So, I tried messing around with out-of-focus shots for something new. Might be something I could get into more later on, but these right now are just sort of tests.

Hello Everyone

Hello all, despite the length of time I have been following this blog I just now got added so I could contribute to it. In case you don't know my name is Tyler Miller and I am a junior in the SFP. Right now I am studying abroad in Siena, Italy with Chris, Whitney, and Max, and pretty close to Josh who is studying abroad in another program in Firenze. Siena is awesome!!! Anyways I thought I should start posting some stuff. For now its just random crap but there is more to come that actually has to do with my final book project (hopefully). Thanks! Tyler

Guess What!!!!?? Polaroid is coming back.

I saw something awesome this morning on G4

Portrait Exhibition

If anyone is in the Denver/Fort Collins, CO area in November, I will have this photograph in the Portrait Exhibition, juried by Mary Ellen Mark, at The Center for Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins.  The show opens November 6th with a public reception for the photographers whose work has been accepted for the show. I am trying to make it down to meet some of the other photographers and gain feedback from others attending the opening.  The show will be open from November 6th-November 28th.

Photographer Needed!!!

Hola everyone!.. Well as some of you know I am getting married this December, so I am looking for a photographer. It is going to be on Thursday December 17th all day. I am going to have a ceremony in Billings in the morning, and a reception here in Bozeman that evening. So if anyone is interested please let me know. You can send me an email to ivette_a@hotmail.com or just make a comment here. If you could add a link to your website so I can see prices, packages and of course your work... that would be great. Gracias!

some of my senior

Ok, so I decided to throw up an image or two from my senior. It's about fairy tales! Eventually these will be hand colored gelatin silver prints.

Astronautalis

Astronautalis I was super excited to get the opportunity to photograph Andy Bothwell, AKA Astronautalis, today. He's definitely one of my favorite musicians, and a super nice guy too. I first started listening to his music way back when I started working in photo checkout. His album The Mighty Ocean & Nine Dark Theaters was on the lab computer and I think I listened to it about 100 times that semester. He's heading out on tour through Europe with Tegan and Sara in a month or so, and I know great things are going to happen for him! We shot these at the end of my street in the rain. Andy's from Seattle, so I find it pretty amusing that he came down to sunny LA, and had a rainy shoot. But then again I get excited to even shoot with clouds in the sky, so I'm really happy with how these came out. AstronautalisAstronautalis
