According to Me

Tainted by Heavy Metal

01.05.2012 by Mark Forman

Well I feel I got off to a rocking start to the New Years with some inspired photography(generally par for the course)-meaning I'm usually inspired, but don't always inspire... I've decided to pull out the stops a little more with my post processing and continue to experiment with different effects and combinations. One of my [...]

Ring in the New!

01.01.2012 by Mark Forman

Here in Taiwan it's already over 7 hours into Twenty Twelve. No I don't have any new wisdom or insights. Stayed up to watch Inception on HBO last night. Wasn't as good as in the theater or the first time but with a mind blowing fast paced movie like that the additional viewing allows you [...]

She Bathes in Titanium Vapor

12.28.2011 by Mark Forman

I'm getting more and more into abstract still life photos. I really like the feel and mood here and I love how you can focus on an element of a scene or thing and create something very different or provide a totally different vibe to it. Hope you like it as well... 801 Live-Miss Shapiro

Letting His Inner Rock Star Shine

12.27.2011 by Mark Forman

I often get feedback on my titles/captions. I admit I do have fun with them. They extend from my love of humor which includes a certain amount of irony hopefully mixed with the joy of being alive and experiencing what life has to offer. I hope this holiday season allows you some opportunity to be [...]

Jeepers Superstars

12.12.2011 by Mark Forman

Sometimes you discover an artistic work that is so overwhelming and mind boggling-you have an epiphany not unlike the troubled teen in American Beauty-feeling completely euphoric and free about the spinning plastic bag. My plastic bag moment is from Terrence Malick's-The Tree of Life. I am still watching it-I'm allowing tim for my eyes to drink in [...]

I Know When Elves Cry Blue Tears it Means They’re Happy

12.09.2011 by Mark Forman

Sometimes when look for photographs or even more when looking at certain photographs, time just stands still. Maybe you can hear some happy instrumental music somewhere in the back of your head, smell phantom hot cocoa or roasting chestnuts or a log in the fire place... Then you snap out of it, but still are [...]

Drier Than Dead Men’s Bones

12.06.2011 by Mark Forman

The Rebel BY HILAIRE BELLOC There is a wall of which the stones Are lies and bribes and dead men's bones. And wrongfully this evil wall Denies what all men made for all, And shamelessly this wall surrounds Our homesteads and our native grounds. But I will gather and I will ride, And I will summon a [...]
