TJ’s Daily Photo #26- OSU Campus Streets

I took the Fujifilm X100T out from the MPEX Rental Department yesterday, and I wanted to get in some street photography practice while it wasn’t bitter cold outside.

Environmental Portraits with the LumoPro LP605M and the LightSwitch

My brother Rich’s house has the feel of a museum. There are paintings, photos, and sculptures throughout that you could spend all day inspecting. His house is truly representative of their personalities. Collections of my nephew’s hand-paintings are mingled with the art and ephemera of their lives, almost as if the space has been sublimated from their combined influences and artistic inclinations.
