Artist's Comments

During a long weekend trip to Paris, a few friends and I visited the Eiffle Tower and this is the carousel that lives underneath the tower. This is one of two abstract images from that night. It was freezing that night so I took these very quickly but they turned out well, especially since I was shivering and the camera was shaking like crazy. This was about a 20 second exposure... I used a mini tripod but didn't have a shutter release on me so I had to hold open the shutter on my own. I was surprised at the result.

I thought the carousel was incredibly beautiful all illuminated at night. This was the first time that I visited the Eiffel Tower at night. While we were there my friends rode the carousel and I just people watched. It was a great night. We snacked on hot dogs, fries and cotton candy and had a fabulous time just sitting there for most of the night.

I sold a print of this to my college and the print resides in Lacoste, France.

This looks like something from a movie dream sequence. It makes me dizzy, but I love it.

This one is probably my favorite photo that I have taken in a while.

SCAD actually bought this one from me but... I still haven't received the $$ yet.
Those money grubbing bitches! Grr!
:icon1hundredmilesaway:
What!? That is lame. Call 'em and tell 'em "I need my money bitches!"
:iconindie-danielle:
Problem is... I sold it while I was in France.
I guess I have to call or email (much cheaper) the director over there.
She's the one who bought it from me... for the school. :P
:icon1hundredmilesaway:
You could always take me over there and I could rough her up for you. Just a suggestion.
:iconindie-danielle:
You would rough her up for little ol' me?!?
I wouldn't want you to do that but...
France + You + Me = A nice idea. ;)

I like it, I almost become dizzy just from looking at it. Sometimes long exposures turn out better without a shutter release.
