MAJORLY EPIC UBER PHOTO UPDATE

JRB — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 06:34:00 +0000

Okay, Okay – I know. Its been like a whole month since I last updated this thing. There is a little thing called “thesis” that I kinda have to get done. No biggie.

Anyway – Here’s some personal shenanigans from the last month.

Ted and I caught the Appetite for Destruction (G-N-R Tribute Band) Show @ THE JINX , which was awesome.

First, it was pizza (for Ted) @ Sweet Melissa’s on Congress Street:

Then it was time to move on to new ground, as Ted and I have a habit of doing……..

So it was off to The Mercury Lounge, for a coupla Guinness before the “big” show!

Ted wants a different scene…..

Mercury…

Then it was NOT QUITE Guns N Roses….. ………

First — I few scenes from one of my favorite places in Savannah , The Jinx!

How can you not love this place?

I love photo triptych’s, especially when they are about PBR……

On to the show…. A precurser…. I am OBVIOUSLY not the AMAZING, super talented musical photographic genius as my friend, Lindsay Hutchens.

But I was drinking, so I am calling a mulligan on this one.

Some B&W

All in all, a great night……

Then my little bro Cory comes prancing into town for a wedding, so I meet up with him and his lovely, beguiling fiance Adrienne. We chilled, got some good eats at “Sunny-Side-Up” on DeRenne, and then headed to River Street for some people watching…….

Jack Sparrow himself…..

Cory poses for 2 photos at once……

They’re so cute….

Another triptych

Cory and Adrienne were able to help me chase some pigons around to, in an homage to this guy, a SCAD alumni whose work I totally dig. Trust me, those little birds are tough to catch on film. James is the MAN. Check out his blog and site.

We were in no way responsible for this….. but Cory said if I didnt take a photo, I was a pansy. Sorry little guy. I know KYLE would dig it though…..

(ouch)

Finally, I can’t end without my model du jour (and constant source of stress, I mean excitement) Capa:

She KNOWS! she isn’t supposed to be on the couch. Whats worse than that is that I took the time to take a photo before I shooed her off, and then made sure their was no dog hair everywhere.

That’s it for now!

Post LA Photo MEGA Update

JRB — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 20:00:00 +0000

So I have had a few days since my whirlwind drive across the country back to Savannah. I finally logged the photos I had taken before I left into Lightroom, and have edited a little bit of the last weeks of my time in LA.

We went bowling…….. which was dark and required me to think to much about exposure, so I put the camera away and proceeded to complete “the under the leg while holding a beer in the left hand STRIKE” that I have now become known for….

After bowling, Nick, Mike, Andy and I continued with a guys night. This consisted of heading to “Champs” and much competitiveness…….

Mike, Andy and I finished our night at what will become one of my most missed activities of the West Coast…… “IN-N-OUT BURGER”!!!!!!!!!

I’ll Miss This!

___**_____

On my way back, I met Alan & Mo in Del Rio, TX which is one of the scariest places to access EVER. Way to remote for this guy. Plus its in TX, which places it super low anyway.

Of coarse, Capa was down for some photo action when I got back…….

Overall, I had a blast in LA, and miss my West Coast Peeps a ton! Seriously not missing the traffic though.

More soon

Massive Photo Update:

JRB — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 23:03:00 +0000

So I know I promised a blog update on some new equipment I have been working with, so here it is. I finally got a camera that I am not constantly wishing I could upgrade. I got my hands on a brand-spanking new Nikon D700
. Its AMAZING. The quality of files coming out of this beast at high isos and in low light it simply mind boggling. I know it doesn’t shoot HD video like the Canon 5D mark II, but hey, when I go video, I’ll see about all of that then.

So I finally got to test out the camera – I went around town with my buddy Mike, attended Chinese New Year in Chinatown with Kelly, and a Superbowl party at Nick’s place.

Massive amounts of photos after the link :

My boy Mike!

This one is for Rebecca Nolan.

Breakfast in Chinatown!

Superbowl Action:

Hope you enjoy! More soon. I can’t stop playing with this camera!!

New Photos…..

JRB — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 03:43:00 +0000

Added some new photos from tonights walk with Capa to the website in the Canine section.
I’ll include them here for your enjoyment, as well:

Upcoming blogs will include an equipment review, more Election 2008 photos, and the upcoming return to FL for the last weekend before election day.

Keep it tuned here, folks. Lots more coming!

Dog days of summer….

JRB — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 17:35:00 +0000

Took Capa to meet with Tessa (and Rachael) and then took her to Saint Simon Island, for a little beach fun. Highlights include her learning to swim, and drinking entirely too much saltwater (even though i had fresh water available) and puking her guts out in the sand. I found this quite funny, although no one else saw the humor.

Read on for more photos!

In the early hours of the night….

I’d like every one to meet my most dedicated and punctual “study buddy” & coworker:

Capa Barduhn!

Late at night, as I work on photos, surf blogs, and generally finish up the work of the day, I am almost never alone. Capa’s crate is directly next to my desk, but I’m just a big softie, so I usually let her out, keeping one eye on her to make sure she doesn’t get into any trouble.

I almost never have to worry, because she always chooses to sprawl out directly behind my chair’s rollers. This is cute, but annoying at times, as I tend to get up and make green tea/coffee and whatnot, and have rolled over her on more than one occasion. I can’t complain though, as this habit of hers just makes me all tingly, and reminds me of my grandmothers’ GSD “Alicia” who’s bed was actually under the desk by her feet. Alicia would sleep under the desk while they worked. As a little kid, I used to think this was just the coolest thing ever, and would consistently lay there with the dog, much to the chagrin of anyone within smelling distance for the rest of the day.

The fact that my own shepherd some 20 years later would possess a similar habit is awesome. (Till I run her over, yet again)

This habit seems to be innate, as she started displaying it from the very first week I picked her up:

How can anyone not like dogs?

That’s about it for tonight, downloading some images from a freelance shoot this afternoon, and caching up on “bones” episodes.

More Soon,

John (& Capa) Barduhn
