The Druid's Eye - Volume 17 - Pt 2

Journal Entry: Fri Jun 5, 2009, 1:58 PM
T H E -- D R U I D ' S -- E Y E
June 5, 09



I'm finally through editing all the portraits (nearly 2000) from the Laurens shoot-out I attended. I now have to start burning CD's to send to each of the models. I'm heading out of town tomorrow to Caesar's Head, hopefully I'll have some nice APN shots when I get back; supposedly some great waterfalls and mountains there. The contest is almost over, there's just about a week left if you want to submit!

:spotlight-left: Photography Spotlight :spotlight-right:

It's my privilege to share these photos with you, and I hope you will go and pay them a visit. Tell them Druideye sent you :).

'True art is not cut from the cloth of predictability. Rather, it's an ephemeral brilliance snatched from the chaos of unformed inspiration.
