The photo for day 37 is another shot taken in downtown Lubbock. I'm not sure about the story behind this building, however it seems to be in the middle of a renovation for a new business or was being renovated and then abandoned in the middle of the project. It has been in this state for a while now.
 
     
 
               Magazines and a book that display some of my interests and hobbies. I feel like this would make for a good poster.
 
      Day 34 is a good example of how I take a lot of my pictures around town. I usually have an idea of what im looking for when I leave my apartment, but not necessarily where im going. Ill usually drive around for a while until something grabs my eye. Then I stop and take a picture.
 
     For day 33 I went with some Calla Lilies and decided to go monochrome. Im finding Black and White images more and more appealing as i progress through my project.  
 
      Day 32 as i was driving downtown i passed this alley and the reflections from the rails caught my eye. I recently got a new tripod and love it. This was my first outing with it and even though I didnt have to put it through its paces, I still like it MUCH better than my previous Supermarket Special.

    Bio

       My name is Paul and I currently live in Lubbock, Tx. I enjoy playing Paintball, Cycling,     anything involving electronics, and Photography to name a few. 

       My interest in photography actually stemmed from an interest in videography. At an early age i would make home videos featuring exploding hotwheels, primitive horror films and even the more adventurous videos of my friends and i bombing hills on longboards and home made street luges. It was when i started dabbling in stop motion videography that i became interested in photography. I started out with my mother's point and shoot, yet i felt like there was so much untapped potential unachievable with her camera that i decided rather quickly that i needed a better one. By this time i had a job and after a couple of months got myself a bigger better camera. I joined a camera club in high school and a few years after graduating i got my hands on a Pentax DSLR. Pentax really appealed to me because of the enormous amount of compatibility with older, less expensive lenses. 

       Photography has been a part of my life for about 7 years now, although it has been a serious passion for only about 2-4 years on and off.
