For my inspirational post for the weekend I was looking through photographers that inspire me and I ran cross Eric Curry's American Pride and Passion. The American Pride and Passion is a series that any one and everyone would take for granted but once you see the images the Mr. Curry has mad you will be in aw with his technique and processing. Here is the link so check out my inspiration. http://americanprideandpassion.com

Tonight was a great and fun night to break in the new studio with Labyrinthe a up and coming group of musical artists from the Charlotte area.

For everyone that has had there creative juice slowed down and been in a slump I'm posting this photographers link to some of his work. While I was searching I found the creative work of Arno Rafael Minkkinen. His series of self portraiture will make you think in direction you never thought before, so go take look the link will be at the bottom.

 Well everyone that knows me knows that I am a technical person. As that technical person I would like to share with fellow photographers one of my frequently visited websites. Ken Rockwell is a very helpful and educated person on sharing everything from pick your camera system to sharing the little secrets that help you get that tough assignment done. Please check out this link and share with your fellow photographers.

Hello, Thank you for taking a peek at my blog. To tell you a little about myself . . . I really have so much to say and so little time to do it. Hmm....were to start?  Well I was born and raise in the rural farm country of central Indiana in the town of Greencastle. If you know were that is you are probably know how I grew up, but if not there is not much to say besides it's a small town with little to do. So my first step was to get away and see the world as soon as I was old enough. This cost money and that was something at that time was just about enough to get me a soda and that was it. So I had to get away so I joined the Marine Corps. and got to travel from far and wide for 10 Years I ventured to the Middle East, Asia, Europe and all across the United States. From these travels I seen many different cultures, lifestyles, and traditions but there was one thing that I wasn't able to do was show others what I seen and share the emotions with others. So in my quest to show and share with others I started documenting with pictures and found myself indulged in photography this is how I got to this point and will be completing a BA in Photography from the Art Institute of Charlotte in a few months. Please feel free to comment on all my post it is my drive to perfection that will come from others advice.

Thank you for looking,
Brad York
