What a beautiful day it is.  To save myself from blowing away, I've decided to enjoy this sunny weather in my sunroom while listening to some Michael Buble; how perfect.  Im just relaxing for a bit reading my Communication Arts magazine (Graphic Design type magazine), and I came across this amazing photographer who I thought I would blog about (since nothing really exciting happened for me today to blog about).  I love photography, it is my passion, and when I saw this guys photos, wow!  I want to get more into commercial photography compared to fine art, and this guy just takes some of the most amazing commercial photos (along with fine art too).  


Erik Almas is the photographer I'm talking about.  I love how he takes photos from different perspectives and how he edits his photos to enhance the mood in them.  His work is just incredible!  My magazine had a whole article about him, and I found this interesting... "Erik Almas scouts the landscape by speedboat, looking for any angle that will reveal its natural beauty in a fresh way.  The next day he's hanging from a cliff with a camera around his neck, harnessed to a rock and shooting the shoreline 500 feet below.  Later he blogs, 'I'm amazed about the places my camera takes me.  And yes, it takes me.'"  He's so passionate about what he does! I love looking at his work.  Here are some of my favorites. :)
