Mom's Classroom 

Mom had some old burnt and stained test tubes laying in a row on her counter.  I liked how it was laid out and that it was on a black surface with some yellow in the tubes. I tried to make the row look as straight as possible, and I am pleased that I didn't need to straighten this image in light room. 

Tuesday 25: 

The Living Room Couch

I was watching death at a funeral (a fantastic movie everyone needs to watch) and I noticed that my ipod screen reflected the TV screen. So I opened up photo booth held the ipod up to my eye and took a couple shots. The screen says "death" and is surrounded by a couple coffins with crosses in them.  Basically me being silly.

Wednesday 26:

The Edge Teen Center

We were watching drama practice and Morgan had her brand new phone on her lap. I just like the depth of field being so shallow. Also the color of the phone makes it pop out of the mundane background. 

Thursday 27:

The Dining Room Table

This is my brother looking extremely satisfied after Thanksgiving dinner. I actually think he was contemplating his pie selection. I wanted to include the mass of plates in front of him to emphasize how large of a meal we had (heck there was an over 20 lb. turkey). 

Friday 28: 

Kitchen

My brothers shirt says "If God had a refrigerator your picture would be on it" And lo and behold there is a fridge behind him. I don't know I just liked the arrangement of elements on a basic level. 

Saturday 29:

My bedroom

I thought to myself I wonder what a photo would look like with a 14 mm lens and a mirror that I skew the angle of it to about 35 degrees.  As a result I had a self-portrait shoot.  I liked the distortion of the physical mirror in this photo, as well as the dominance of the mirror in the foreground. Additionally, It wasn't too busy in the background, which is a miracle for this room. 

Sunday 30:

Calcium Community Church 

This is a skit we did at a church service on Sunday. It is called heroes and is done to the song "Hero" by Superchic[k]. This scene reenacted a school shooting by a bullied teenager. I like the expressions on the kids in the skit coupled with the interest by the audience. That and Jacob (boy with gun) is a great little actor musician. Too bad there was no way to get the windows exposed within the scene, but that is what shooting in churches results in sometimes.
