Saturday Market / Occupy Eugene

Went down to the Saturday Market today, to do a bit of street photography, and came across the beginnings of an Occupy Everywhere style protest. A lot of cool people, with cool signs and a message. The Oregonian says there were about 2000 people in attendance, which is pretty big for a town this small. Got a few shots i liked, there were a ton of other photographers around, so I'm sure it's well documented. Good times.

camera projector background

I found this article the other day online about modifying an old film camera into being a type of flash-powered projector. A bit of work destroying an old camera I had laying around, and it was done. It's interesting, I got slightly different results..... that lighting pattern behind me there is the front lens of my flash, projected up on the wall. A fun project, and all it took was one destroyed camera.
