Day 19/20: A Cup Full of Sunshine/ Sunset Flowers 
June 20th - via: kickstarter.com
Being sick is not fun, I don't recommend it. Was still trapped at home yesterday, so I had to make due with what I could find in the house. Had some great light coming in through the back door, so I made use of that and some china that was hiding up... (Read More)
Day 18: The Predecessor
June 18th - via: kickstarter.com
While the SX-70 Sonar that I am using for this project was made in October of 1979, this little beauty, the Polaroid 250 Land Camera, was made somewhere between 1967-1969. It's at least 10 years older, and I got if for about $20, along with the flash... (Read More)
Day 17: The World As Seen Through the Ground
June 17th - via: kickstarter.com
Puddles are tough. Took a while to search for one that was deep enough to reflect something properly, but when you find that one, you've got to make sure it's not too far from things to reflect. I am by no means a puddle expert. (Read More)
Day 16: We All Wither In the Sun's Gaze
June 16th - via: kickstarter.com
So I feel terrible. I'm most certainly sick now. But that's beyond the point, look! Flowers! Well, the furthest I could go today was my front yard, and I got a shot of these little natural wonders struggling to survive the sun. Hopefully I can... (Read More)
Day 15: Miniature Elegance
June 15th - via: kickstarter.com
I am often surprised by what is hiding right under my nose when it comes to the area I live in, but it's odd that it I'm surprised by what I find in my own house. I have no idea where this little miniature porcelain tea set came from, but it... (Read More)
Day 14: The Sun Guides Us
June 14th - via: kickstarter.com
USC's campus has little treasure sprinkled all over it. The plaque this sundial is imbedded in says that the rock was it's attached to was donated in 1927, so I assume that the dial is at least remotely that old. They made cooler things that hold up... (Read More)
Day 13: The Origins of Steel
June 14th - via: kickstarter.com
I'm sick. So, to celebrate I drove to Charlotte yesterday for the Passion Pit concert instead of resting at home like a sane person (I'm not THAT sick). Anywho, this post is late because I didn't get home until after midnight and I passed out. ... (Read More)
Day 12: Mystery Monument
June 12th - via: kickstarter.com
Right beside our 5 Points area is Martin Luther King Jr. Park, and in said park is this awesome monument. I didn't have time to figure out what it was for, but it is an impressive fountain. I will one day throw someone into it and photograph the... (Read More)
Day 11: The Other Side of the Captial
June 12th - via: kickstarter.com
Everyone takes pictures of the state house. Tourist, newspapers, even locals. I stopped a random girl on the street and asked "when you think of Columbia, what comes to mind first?", and without fail her answer was the state house. I was determined... (Read More)
Day 10: Farm Life + (Potential) New Magazine Update
June 10th - via: kickstarter.com
There aren't a ton of farms around here. Every now and then you'll drive down some rural back road and see an unused barn, or a few cows or horses out in a field, but this isn't farming country. Years and years ago, this state was big on cotton and... (Read More)
Day 9: The Things Buried In The Mist
June 9th - via: kickstarter.com
This place decided to turn into Sleepy Hollow last night, so on my way home from work i could barely even see the road. The whole way I was looking for something to photograph for today, and this empty lot filled with the skeleton of leafless trees... (Read More)
Day 7/8: The Tavern Known For It's Door/ A Bit of History
June 8th - via: kickstarter.com
Didn't get home until around 2 a.m. last night, so this shot is just going up now. I took this on my way to a ZZ Ward concert about two doors down. This spot, Red Door Tavern, used to be called The Red Tub. If someone didn't tell you where it was,... (Read More)
Day 6: Nature Wins Out
June 6th - via: kickstarter.com
The plan was totally to photograph a building or a puddle (it's been raining a lot lately), but this little guy won out. A friend of one of my models was in town from Florida, and I let her use my camera to shoot some of the scenery as we roamed... (Read More)
Day 5: Abandoned Offices
June 5th - via: kickstarter.com
Even though their campus is all the way in Greenville (about 2 hours away), Clemson university owns a research park here in Columbia. I believe they mostly do agricultural research and work with the community. There are a lot of old buildings that... (Read More)
Day 4: Petrified & Headless
June 4th - via: kickstarter.com
Even the toughest of things don't survive sometimes. Stumbled across this little headless chap yesterday. Abandoned under a large (Oak?) tree and shaded from the morning sun, his head was nowhere to be found. Was it stolen by a family of squirrels to... (Read More)

Day 1: Sunbathing in Bright Colors
June 1st - via: kickstarter.com
For some reason I thought it would be a great idea to try to take an Impossible Project shot at noon, when the sun was just beating down on my poor camera, but it would not be deterred and produced this shot of a couple of flowers enjoying the summer... (Read More)
Goal: Attained!
May 28th - via: kickstarter.com
It's really hard to believe that this project is already funded, but I've got you five fine folks to thank for that! There may still be 25 days left to go, but I will "officially" start taking Polaroids on Saturday. Hopefully More people join in on... (Read More)
