Friendships take a lot of time to build, and for me, friendships with other women are always strange at the best of times. The following mosaic (you’ll need Microsoft Silverlight installed to be able to see it) is composed of all of the photographs produced by my friend Kara Yerex in her short lifetime on [...]

Happy New Year
Well, it’s another year already. The last one went by so fast, but it was quite the action-packed year, that’s for sure. I brought my family with me to France, which was the biggest highlight for me last year. What an amazing trip! I suspect this year will be less travel oriented, and with much [...]
Flickr Apocalypse
So, it’s finally happened. From my part of the world, Flickr has dropped off the map. From what I can tell, there’s some sort of DNS issue, and many of the flickr.com subdomains cannot be resolved by me, or my friend Jack starting last night and continuing all of today. I feel a little like [...]
Waking Dream
“Waking Dream“, a flickr image by thorinside. I haven’t blogged in ages. Really, who has the time? Today I got a text message from Rachel, whom I’ve only just met (and not in person) on Facebook, and I decided to take her to this little place that I know of, with nobody living in it. [...]
In a Sea of Grass
I’m rather proud of this photograph. First, I stumbled upon this truck hidden out in a field, probably unknown to much of the world. It was near sundown and the light was failing so I had my 50mm lens with me and open ‘er wide up to gather as much light as possible. And finally [...]
Not in it for the Money
Well, sometimes I wonder what I’m going to do with my artwork and photographs in the future. Sure, they give me some respite from my depression and allow me to function as a, more or less, normal human being again. That’s nearly enough. Sometimes I wish that I suddenly had a massive audience that would [...]
Lori Nix
Her work really defies description. She was blogged about, recently on Boing Boing, and I thought I’d reblog it, having gone to her site and watched the little video, and been inspired by it. I’m sure my wife would freak out if I started doing this kind of thing, but I have thought about it [...]
Sacred Heart
“Sacred Heart“, a flickr image by thorinside. What does it all mean, this Matriarchy business? Well, I have long believed in the cyclic nature of everything. Our world has been ruled by women in the past, and it will be again. It is also a statement about my discontent with the masculine, and how the [...]
On Vinyl
“On Vinyl“, a flickr image by thorinside. So, recently I replaced my old Nikon D70s with a new D300. I haven’t had the chance to do much with it, at least not much that I’ve been proud of. This weekend I was invited to a photoshoot to assist a friend of mine, Jack, on a [...]
Destiny Calls
.flickr-photo { } .flickr-frame { float: left; text-align: center; margin-right: 15px; margin-bottom: 15px; } .flickr-caption { font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 0px; } Destiny Calls, originally uploaded by thorinside. Well, hanging out with my daughter on the weekend. It was fun, we went over to my friend Jack’s place and did some photography in his basement. I [...]
