State of the union

Frank Capria — Sun, 25 Mar 2012 17:13:13 +0000

This was a quick, throw away shot I snapped of my reflection in my office window. The double paned glass messed it up and it just wasn’t very good anyway, so I was about to throw it out.

But then I looked at it saw something very sad. I’m wearing a hoodie and quasi [...]

Stopping SOPA and PIPA

Today was a turning point in American politics. Watching Senators and Congressmen backing away from these failed bills as hastily as they originally tried to push these bills through was quite satisfying. It would be naive to believe we’re out of the woods. These horrible bills will return in some form again and [...]

Going forward I’ll be posting my photograhic work at FrankCapria.com, so this blog can remain focused on media industry and design topics. I’ll continue to tweet when there’s a new photo posted, as well as articles.

Old tractor

Oh, how many times I’ve shot tractors. And how many shots I’ve blown. This one came out OK. I’m sticking with the vehicle theme for another day on my 365 project.

Old Pickup

An old pickup parked outside a bookstore in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. I color corrected this image to convey the heat and humidity of Arkansas in July. Even in stickiest weather, Eureka Springs is one of my favorite little cities in the world. It’s a hangout for bikers, GLBT folks, and fundamentalist Christians.

My Chemical Romance

Frank Capria — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 04:57:28 +0000

Everything, absolutely everything is wrong with this photo, but it captures the moment perfectly. It screams rock and roll. Low fidelity, noisy, over saturated, and unsophisticated, but full of raw energy. I just love this crappy image from My Chemical Romance at the House of Blues and really great night out with [...]

Declining magesty

Frank Capria — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 05:09:18 +0000

I rarely aspire to symmetry in my photos, but this old gent demanded to be the center of attention. Even the dying grasses bow to his declining majesty.

Happy accident

Frank Capria — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 02:39:07 +0000

I had a perfect foggy morning to take some pictures of the cornfield featured yesterday. Just as I arrived and began setting up, I startled a flock of starlings into flight. I immediately began shooting furiously as I didn’t want to miss the moment. Unfortunately I had. Though I habitually store [...]
