My name is Sammy. My last name is pronounced like Freeze, just like Doctor Fries (more popularly known as Mr. Freeze) from batman (now you can get the blog name). I am a trapeze artist, an avid photographer, and lately I haven't been such an avid shoe wearer. My blog is random, but its all original content created by me, and with some help from my surroundings. Enjoy,
The doctor.

I brought out some of the new filters I got to trapeze and played with them for a while. The split image is my favorite.

I took this shot on black and white 35mm film in philly with my Diana +. Its a double exposure of a sign and a tree. Printing was difficult because the Diana records over the sprockets, and I wanted that part of the picture in my print. I ended up taking some thick paper and gluing some black paper over it and making an insert for a 120 carrier so I could print it. I took an exacto blade and stylized the carrier, then put the film in between the carrier and the insert and taped it to make sure it didn’t move when I put it in the enlarger. Really glad that I decided to file out the inset.

I saw this picture of one of my classmates as a kid. I instantly thought of harry. According to wikipedia, this is the way you spell the killing spell.

This is a photo of “future me” from when I used to fly planes sometime in the 1900’s. Just assume that there is time travel in the future, its way less complicated that way.

More giraffes. Maybe I’ll find some more giraffe shots, or even better take some new ones tomorrow.
