clipper's remarks: Using LED glowsticks, flashlights, even fireworks, combined with time-lapse photography, light graffiti artists create a unique tagging that wraps around objects dimensionally, allowing them to tag in a way they'd never be able to with spraypaint. Very cool!

How to Make Great Photos in Crappy Locations

Somewhere in Arizona, October, 2002

Don't let your creative juices be stymied by lame excuses like "If I only lived in Yosemite," "If I only could take vacation in the sandstone slot canyons of the American Southwest," and "If I was only close to an ocean."

Big deal. If you did all you'd probably do is make more of the same clichéed photos we've already seen.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Open your eyes

We all overlook what we see every day. We take it for granted. These things are dull to us, but often interesting to others. Photograph what's unique about your area. If you live in the Arctic, try seeing patterns in ice lit by moonlight or igloos lit from whale-blubber oil lamps within. If everything's dark and crappy, don't complain: make photos exaggerating just how bad things are.

Look for color - anywhere

Even the grayest of places has its color. Look for neon and other signs at night. They're even better in the rain when you can catch the colors glinting off the streets.

Make time exposures outdoors at night. Even though you may not see colors with your eyes, cameras (digital and film) will pick up and highlight colors in low light. The more varied the lighting, the better. Make photos inside an area with varied lighting, for instance, a shopping mall. The camera will accentuate these differences between tungsten, fluorescent, sodium and metal halide light which are invisible to our eyes.

My work is about color. I keep my eyes peeled and find it all over. Maybe it's a fire extinguisher on the wall of an auto repair station. Maybe it's one bright boxcar in the middle of a railroad yead. Maybe it's little bit of red panty sneaking out from a girl's jeans. It's out there. You just need to look for it.

What sticks out?

Look for anything out of place. Look for what stands out and ask yourself why it stands out. Make photos to highlight whatever it is that makes something catch your eye.

Howto: Make Photo Snow Globes

The great snow gods have not been kind to us this year. If you’re still pining for wintery white, or just hoping it’d go away, we recommend a quick (and heartfelt) appeal.

Luckily, we have just the thing to melt their frosty disposition: Photojojo’s Make-Your-Own Photo Snow Globes.

Grab a bottle, photo, glitter, and corn syrup and you’re on your way to making an offering not even the gods could refuse.*

Ingredient List

Water Bottle or empty mason jar - Fred works great!
Two photos (or 1 transparency)
Clear packing tape, the wider the better.
Scissors
Goo Gone
Glitter & sparkles
Clear (light) Corn Syrup
Good old-fashioned Water

Step 1: Clean your Bottle

Step 2: Crop your Photos

Step 3: Waterproof your Photos

Now turn your photo over and put the second photo down on top of your first photo so they’re back-to-back. As before, use tape to cover the surface of the second photo, making a photo sandwich. Remember that the tape is waterproofing your photos, so don’t leave any areas untaped, watch out for tears, and make sure the edges are tightly closed.

Step 4: Plop that Sucker in!

Step 5: Activate Photo Snow Globe!

Make it Extra Special

Use a jar instead of a water bottle.
Use a grater to grind up a white PVC pipe to create plastic snow.
Glue the cap onto your jar to make sure no water comes out when you shake it.
Use a glue gun to draw on the outside of your jar or bottle, then pour glitter onto hot glue for a neat effect.
Use a transparency (try the local copy shop) instead of photos.
Add sequins and buttons to your glitter for variety.
