Zack Arias... 365

I've been so excited about this find, that I just had to write my Tuesday post a day early. BTW, if you missed yesterday's post, or this morning's post I guess, you can see Jon as an Avatar with a link to the tutorial. I will probably post again tomorrow anyway because it is "New Recipe Tuesday" (Michelle's Day) and also Oscar nomination day. Don't forget to choose your pics for the Oscars to win a framed 8x10 from my Shutterstock gallery. I'll post a link as soon as I design the survey on my website.

Back to Zack. Since I discovered Zack about a year ago, he has been the photographer I strive to be. Jason Q Tran may be a creative wedding photographer, but to me when it comes to sheer genius, Zack wins.

Here are some of his links:

But what I am most excited about is his 365 project. He's bloggin'. Just like me. He feels like he needs a creative boost, so he started a daily blog to share his trials, frustrations, and successes. I would probably attempt to talk to him but if I did he would probably end up critiquing my website, and I ain't prepared for that kind of rejection. Someday I'll attend his One Light Workshop and he can learn me something.

Just south of where I live is a little AZA credited zoo, The Parks at Chehaw. Some of my best shots came from this little zoo. Their animals aren't caged up like some zoos, most animals are in larger pens where you can get some great shots without fences or wall in the shots. The lemurs are free roaming, they roam freely throughout the zoo. I haven't been there in years, though. This shot was just a random snapshot. When I was editing photos later, I submitted it, expecting a reject. But, to my surprise, is still a top 20 seller in my port. I did find this one in use by a school textbook, but I can't find the link now.

Here are a few others from the zoo....

Don't forget tomorrow... Oscars!!!
