This is the guitar and effects processor used by Patric Sullivan. At the time of this photo, Patric was playing his keyboard. I like this photo because of the anticipation that it has. The empty chair beside the equipment says "come play me, i am waiting for you!"

DSC06171: Work 2.4

DSC06171: Work 2.4, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I think that this photo is perhaps even better than the Work 2.7 photo. The color and lighting is brilliant on this photo. The bright arc is not overpowering any of the photo and you can see the orange glow of the lights in the metal shot reflecting on the metal to the left of the weld. The orange glow on the inside of the pipe si from the hot metal penetrating the pipe and welding it together.

Taken today at work. I love the coloration of this photo. You can see that the worker does not have the MIG welding rig amperage turned up high so he will not blow a hole through the metal. I love the sparks that are being reflected from his chest.

DSC05190: Looking Through...

DSC05190: Looking Through..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

While on vacation in Texas for Christmas, we were at my Grandparents home on Lake Sam Rayburn. This photo is looking at the cove where you can park your boat during the summer. At the moment, the lake is very low and the cove is dry.

I had some very, very fun times on this lake during the many summers that i spent there! This is a much different looking photo than what you would see during the summer. It is a bleak, dull looking gray photo with no life. During the summer, it is a bright green "parkway" that allows you 24 hour access to the water and your boat. There are houses to the left and the right but none on this area...

At this moment in time, this photo is a dim reminder of the Winter season that we are all in but don't fret, Spring and Summer are right around the corner.
