mandolin davis' photostream
|
Describe myself...yikes-a. Well I moved to Hawaii from California in 2006 (which oddly enough i miss like crazy despite my beautiful surroundings)... i went from photographing hot chix (that happened to be my roomates) in my studio to photographing sunsets in Ewa Beach. So i'm a soul in transition...and that would be the best way to describe myself...There you have..that's my story and i'm sticking to it. Whooosha!
Since becoming apart of the Flickr Community I’ve discovered so many great artists and techniques that inspire me to do and be better and what I love-and I hope that my work will raise an eyebrow or two while I’m at it. I have been fortunate in my life to come across those who have humored many of my random ideas—and to all of you—a thousand thank yous!
And I am the first to admit that if no one is available for me to shoot--I've been known to shine a bunch of lights on some bottles just to see the outcome...thus-i'm posting the following image which reminds us all--to be mindful of the green fairy. It was taken with a Canon :::gasp:::however, I've since converted back to Nikon.
Equipment:
Nikon D50
Lense:
Nikkor VR 70-300mm [i just got it so stay tuned for some new stuff using this lense!]

Jimbo's says:
"I love the pictures of Mandolin Davis.
Why?
Simply because I love his sense of framing, composition and color of its cliches!
In addition there is often a lot of humor in his photos.
In short Mandolin Davis is a sacred good photographer"13th November, 2007

"I love Mandolin's creativity! Her photos tell stories of events, people, life - something I would love to do but is uncapable of. Dwell around in her photostream and you will quickly find yourself immersed in intense, upbeat and beautiful photography."
