Image[ography]

Like videography, Image[ography] is my definition for creating a video like sequence with still images only. I've had this idea brewing, then I met Leigh and she shared similar thoughts.
On top of being a beautiful woman and friend, Leigh is an amazing dancer, yogi and writer.
She wrote a poem and we complied it together, and went with a very loose plan.
This is what came of it. WATCH THE SHORT VIDEO NOW!
We are so excited to share this with you and the world, so please comment!
There will be many more Image[ography] projects to follow in Japan!

Here are some of the shots I loved...

























WATCH the video Relent.
Thanks!

Rilakkuma and another Flickr site!

Konnichiwa!
SO- I have another site to add to your list.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/mofotoflickr/
Why so my damned sites? I asked my self that too. BUT I am devoting this Flickr site to reach the larger world of photo lovers on Flickr! I will be updating it with new creations and possibly old- who knows. You'll just have to check it out often, and add me as a contact if you are on Flickr (which you should be!)

Here are the other places you can find me:
my website :: http://www.morganpace.com/
my daily iphone pic :: http://www.flickr.com/photos/morganpacebolton/
on facebook :: under morganpace@gmail.com - you can email me there too:)

Here are a few pics that I just put on my new Flickr site. If you have been following my Daily Flickr Pic you will know all about this cute little bear named Rilakkuma :)

Out & About

So we've hit the 3 month mark here is Osaka! It's starting to heat up and I'm starting to really miss nature... sweet nature! It's out there- you just have to go further than your backyard to find it!
Yesterday I took a walk around my neighborhood looking to be inspired... and I was! By nature nonetheless. I took a bunch of pics for my soon to be revived Etsy store, and here are some others, that I loved, but don't think I'll try and sell.
Enjoy!

All these images (well- probably all on my blog) have been post processed in photoshop, which I almost enjoy doing as much as I like taking the picture! Some people might feel differently, but as I was working on these yesterday I made up this tune... "Post processed and it feeeeels so good!" haha I just love making a good photo look even better.

ok on to it... this is a composite image- 2 images overlapped.

model works.

Last week I met with Bug to take some shots for his newly started modeling portfolio, this was his first attempt at a photo shoot, as well as my first attempt to capture a male model. I think the results proved well for both of us :)

location: Osaka Castle

with Love from Osaka!

Hello World! Sorry I've been MIA for a while... well at least on MoFoto, but I have been keeping up with our Japan blog: Boltonsans.blogspot.com please find much up to date stuff there! I am also keeping up with My Daily Pic on Flickr!
We've been living in Osaka, Japan for about 7 weeks now! Jeff and I are working for ECC teaching English. The work is great and it's really fun meeting and talking with so many Japanese people! We haven't made it out of the city too much yet, but right now is Sakura season- when the cherry blossoms are blooming so I've been inspired to get out and take some pics! Last week we went to Kyoto for the day and this weekend we plan to visit Nara as well.
Many pinhole and holga images are in the works and I hope to have some great shots to show you soon.
I've already been feeling the itch to take some people pics, so if you or anyone you know is in the Kansai area please contact me! I'm not sure how people here would feel about a "trash the dress" shoot, but I would love to get my hands on a willing couple!

Please contact me on www.morganpace.com or find me on Facebook under Morgan Pace.
I look forward to hearing from you!

Here's one pic from last week in Kyoto... this scene was sooo amazing... Im not sure if it gets much better than this for me?!
