NoNo Joe's photostream
|
I started by taking photos from a Kodak camera, then moved onto a Canon Powersho S1 IS, then have a Canon Rebel 2000 XT and currently own a Canon EOS Rebel XT.
I have one Macro lens with intention to buy a few more lenses.
------- views.
it's not the heroin-chic I'm looking for
where women look lost with bunny ears on their heads or smoke cigarettes trying to look cool in some backlight room
the over-dub of black into photos to make they look more hollywood, the loss of color in an image, photoshopped to a high veneer while loosing the soul.
I take photos because I'm objectfying what's around me, I don't take photos to humor my ego or vanity, I take them because the camera is a knife, cutting out a chunk of reality at a time.
If all the world is a stage, why are we all vying for court jester and rescued princess at the same time?

"NoNo just plain rocks. He brings the spirit and vibe of Austin into focus like nobody's business. If it's hot and it's happening in the ATX, Joe and his faithful crew of penguins will be there with some killer photos faster than you can say Linux."

"I love the studies in miniature. My only complaint is that there is no suggestion box. I mean gummy bears are sweet and cute looking, what the hell? Not only that, but I love to see my home town looking so glamorous and beautiful through NoNo Joe's mind's eye."

"Joe is one of those people on Flickr who can leave a comment or note that will always bring a smile to my face. He takes beautiful shots of mundanity, and is never to shy to give me lip. Plus he likes girls in gasmasks, so what can be wrong?! But the burning question, is what is going on with the NoNo part of his name... are you that bad Joe?!"
