Fun with Photos

My oldest son is a photographer. Mostly weddings, but he can do other stuff too, and he's got great equipment. So I asked him if he'd take some pics of some of my junk to do a photo gallery. I pulled out every old machine I could think of, An old fan, sewing machine, typewriter, cameras etc. Then we got them printed in B&W and I framed them. I love the look. Modern, yet vintage at the same time.

This is the first grouping. A Fan, sewing machine, and typewriter

The second grouping, cameras on each side, and a movie projector in the middle

This is an old violin

They look really good in person. Right now he's getting me the pictures in digital form, and I'm going to be adding them to my web site for sale. We may do some more as well.

    Your son is an awesome photographer.

    The pictures look great! You have
    a special touch, to make ordinary
    items look like art.

    Best Wishes,
    Andrea

    I love these. I was thinking after watching Design Star tonight that I wish someone had taken cool close up pictures of architectural details of the old house they were in and had done a series of black and white prints.
