Chaotic

Rock Day

Chaos. Not quite like this, but it feels pretty close.

In the past 2 weeks, things at Ostow studio have gone crazy - we were gone on overnight shoots at Austin Riggs and Kent Private school which took almost 2 weeks worth of my time, including a Whole Foods shoot and my own shooting for Tufts closing events in the middle of that. Things have been nuts and this is pretty much my first break in two weeks, immediately followed by another 2 weeks of pretty much no days off.

Life has exploded, duckies!!

I've also managed to get some holga developed and scanned in there somewhere - who knew!

I had to throw a little vanity in there.

In the non-photo world, I saw the 4th Indy last night, which was surprisingly good and consistant with the classics - once you got over the fact that Harrison Ford looks like he may have a heart attack at any moment on set. I loved it for 2 simple facts:

1) Shia LeBeouf actually turns to Indy after a fight scene and says, "You fight pretty good for an old man. What are you, like, 80?" I died laughing. Half the theater turned to look at me.

2) It basically enacted one of my biggest tangible fears ever. SPOILER!! Huge car chase in the Amazon and what happens? They land in a field of massive ant hills with masses and masses of huge army ants that subsequently swarm over people, trees, etc. in mile square sheets and devour everything, dragging people down into their ant holes for further edible goodness. Worst fear ever. I almost died. It was fantastic.

All for now, kiddies. Watch for ohkarina.com to be launched in the next couple weeks (I hope!)
