Time: Chandler Kim

"Tomorrow's life is too late. Live today."-Martial

Time is something intangible that is constantly slipping away from us. Whether it be school, work, or just simply life itself, I always find myself wishing time would just slow down for a split second to let me catch up. But since that won't happen, I think it is important for us to do things with the short amount of time we have that strengthen us as beings and make our passion for life grow with us. This composite of images symbolizes the meditation that we can find in our everyday routines. For me, snowboarding is my solace, the thing that makes me feel most alive. Due to the deadlines of real life, I wasn't able to do as much snowboarding this year as I would have liked, so I decided to make a composite of the peace and serenity that being on a chairlift, anticipating the next run brings me. It is important that we do not forget the good times in the middle of the stressful ones. Even if you are overloaded with things to do, make time to enjoy the beauty of life and live today.

ENERGY - DREW LUNDQUIST

Thomas Edison once said, "I love electricity," and I must say, I agree. I also love electricity; and energy. Edison hates energy compared to how much I love it. No contest.

RICH - DREW LUNDQUIST

"All men dream: but not equally." To be 'rich' in wealth, good company, territory, flavor or vibrance, it was difficult to determine what I thought the word should mean; 'plentiful' and 'abundant' according to Websters. I struggled to find a good representation of the word and eventually confused myself, hindering any creative progress. Being rich in color or flavor was an initial plan but I never really felt good about any of the shots I got. There's a reason why I distance myself from food photography. For as long as I can remember, I've fantasized about venturing off to uncharted islands, in search of buried treasure. It's right up there with learning the ways of the Force, and flying, so, in short, this is a representation of the search for wealth (to become rich)
A bit of a stretch I know, but finding treasure is about as likely as me becoming rich; but that's fine I don't need to be rich, I just don't want to struggle.
(note: I also got to play with fire)

Inspired by the popular video game series "Uncharted" by Naughty Dog

TEXTURE - DREW LUNDQUIST

IT LIVES!!!
Texture, texture, texture!!! Personally I've shot loads of pictures for 'Texture' related projects and never really thought any of them were overly exciting to look at. This shot however, I had a lot of fun with! I enjoy working in photoshop; creating fantastically imaginative images. This particular shot is a composition of some dry mud found in my backyard and a willing participant, Ryan Norris, to pose for me. I had the image of the character 'The Thing' from Marvels 'Fantastic Four' comic in mind when creating this image.
"It's Clobberin' Time!!!"
