For this week’s LensProtoGo 52 Week Project theme of “Jump” I went straight to ridiculous. I get these ideas in my head, that I have to at least try before I push them away. I could not get Van Halen’s “Jump” out of my head as soon as I saw this week’s theme. And I am a huge fan of 80s … Read More
Week 19 – Shoes
This week I actually submitted my photo a little late for the LensProtoGo 52 Week Project, but for good reason! My sister, Allie Stone graduated from SAIC (School of the Art Institute of Chicago)!

Each week everyone posts a photo in the Flickr group based on the theme that Lens Pro to Go decides on. The first week of January was “A Self Portrait Without You In it”. I gathered as much stuff that … Read More
