Photography: 1"

I decided to do another take on old photo concept that I had previously shot, this time, using only a one-second exposure. The above was taken on the Wilshire bridge overlooking the 110 Freeway (facing south). It was actually quite scary because I could feel the wind from the cars kick up my hair when I leaned over the railing, looking down. G had to accompany me as there were quite a few homeless people around and it was almost 10PM in downtown LA (we were quite near Skid Row). The older photo (circa 2008), below, was taken in Century City using a 13-second exposure.

Photography: 1/1000"

I had found thumbtacks and champagne flutes laying around from a previous photo shoot that I had done (see below) and decided to do a different take on it using gravity. Unfortunately, due to how cloudy it was (and I like to shoot only in natural light), I had to kick up the ISO on my already crappy camera, which raised the noise to unbearable levels.
