SPICY - DREW LUNDQUIST

Most food is a little bland in my opinion and more often than not I tend load up whatever meal I can with various peppers, spices and hot sauces to give it that extra kick! Every once in a while however, I bite off a little more I can chew and end up breaking a hot sweat on my lunch break. When that happens, this is how I feel inside! Lips dry the more I wet them, and every breath ignites a scorching burn like the sun to a pale kid at a water park! I love it!

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

VALENTINE - DREW LUNDQUIST

The Irony of Idolizing!
The mind distorts and disfigures perceptions of those we are infatuated with. Eventually, they're no longer the person you met or spotted across the room and you're completely carried away by unreasoned passion.

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!!!"

MOTION - DREW LUNDQUIST

This shot I've tried to do a couple times now, trying to capture movement/motion yet still haven't managed to get it to where I want. A light painting shot using a blue tinted fluorescent light moved around with a 30sec exposure time. This time with ISO maxed at 1600 at f/5.6
