mer du sud

Working on the very first photo assignment was intensely frustrating yesterday. It's not hard, it's just busywork. I understand the actual value behind doing this because he wants us to understand about equivalent exposures and get people to look at things from different angles..but the way we have to do it turns something I find cathartic into something that bores the hell out of me. I don't want to make this art into a science.

In other news, I've recently netflixed the Planet Earth series. I had been meaning to buy them for my dad for Christmas last year (when I wasn't poor as hell) and just steal them for my own purposes, but they were sold out. So..netflix is the next best thing. Watching that kind of stuff, especially the "Diary" segment they have at the end of each section, really makes me want to do that kind of stuff. I don't know, it's just a passing thought, but maybe something to look into later on.
