See I was born a little pie-eyed motherfucker / Mamma she left me and my pappa was a hard trucker / Out on the highway we loved to roll / He never made me go to school / I never begged to go / I was a low class livin raised out in the sticks / I was born to be a hick / See I love to spend my days just a squirrel huntin / Go see my cousin Ellie May and get some good lovin / Kissin and huggin on some distant lands / People always tell me I’m a twisted man / Jim Beam in my hand boones kegged in shit And I was born to be a hick / Ohhh I was born to be a hick See I love to spend my days just a squirrel hunter / Go see my cousin Ellie May and get some good lovin / Kissin and huggin on some distant lands / People always tell me I’m a twisted man / Jim Beam in my hand boones kegged in shit And I was born to be a hick / See I was born to be a hick man / Yeah I was born to be a hick man / Yeah, yeah, yeah / I’m a shotgun tokin / I’m a John Deere drivin / I’m a hick / Ah har… *Lyrics by Kid Rock

These refugee’s were traveling to Chad via Niger and stopped near our rig site to make repairs to their truck. After giving them water food and milk for the women, babies and children, they were gracious enough to let me take some shots. They still had 1000km to travel at this point…......Life is sometimes very cruel! Unfortunately i could not get any better shots of the women and children as they were safely nestled up on top. / Shot in the Sahara desert, Libya. / Nikon D300, 24 – 120mm at 58mm, f18, 1/250, ISO 200. / / . / / . /
*model/ concept: Art laugh because it’s funny, and cry because it’s so pitifully true, guys… the fact remains that even if you’re a talented design/ art/ photography student, the size of your income may not always be quite so proportionate to the size of your skill. (of course, if you throw in a heavy dose of prayer and ambition, THEN the equation changes…) special thanks to Art for coming up with the idea for this photo, and just being ballsy enough to do this at a freeway exit, where I’m sure drivers were more than a little weirded out by what they saw oh, and by the way… do you guys remember the good ol’ days when we thought $2.87 for a gallon of gas was expensive? we were young, naive and innocent then… fun fact: this photo is nearly two years old! I took this back in late 2006 when I didn’t even have my dSLR yet! I normally don’t go back that far when searching for past photos that are worthy of being tweaked in the lab, but this one was special :)
Taken during Art in All of Us (www.artinallofus.org) activities last month in the island of St Kitts. The AiA Awareness Program (http://www.artinallofus.org/about-us/programs.html) introduces multicultural exchanges and knowledge during visits into schools by introducing photographic and other interactive cultural activities. One child wanted to express the idea of being made out of sand and being happy with it. He made the composition…. I just pressed the button ;-) Inspire children is part of our mission, giving them a voice is our duty… All proceeds from sales of pictures will go to the child art education project of Art in All of Us (WWW.ARTINALLOFUS.ORG) /
This old FRAMO built until 1957 in Hainichen and Frankenberg, Germany and was one of the sights on a phototour I took with some other photographers from my photoclub. Taken in Steinfurt, Germany.
Cauca, COLOMBIA / [The Indigenous AWA Village] / I renounce to leave this place without take her a pic, she was so worried about my camera, so sorry little queen!! I love portrait shots of children, and I like this one, children are all a gift from God, and I work with extreme poor in isolated and rural villages. Sadly some never have the opportunity to go to school, or survive above 7 years old. I love it when they see themselves in teh Camera Viewfinder. They get so excited.

With Earth as the leader, the planets of the Solar System have turned against poor Pluto excluding him from their group of planets. He is now demoted to a dwarf planet. This contemporary themed image is build upon events in which Pluto was degraded and reclassified to a dwarf planet. It is now no longer part of the classic line of planets in our Solar System as I’ve been used to. It’s strange when you’ve been able to memorize the planets ever since you were a kid and for the future will have to leave this little icy rock out. I liked doing a smaller and less extensive project for a change. I had this simple idea, and worked on/off for about a week before completing this. I had great fun stuffing as many little funny details into the image as I could, and I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making it! Visit MathiasPedersen.com to see more of my artwork.

A young Ecuadorian girl is carrying her baby brother on her back. Such a sight is not uncommon in South America, where kids as young as six or seven attend to their younger siblings needs while the parents work. This is a scan from a 35mm slide. —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-- / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—--

While my scanner is on the blink I’ve been going through some of my photos taken while in Shanghai, China in 2006 and found a few with potential. I don’t think I’ll upload too many as photography isn’t one of my strong points, but it is fun to see what you can do with an image and photoshop. This one was taken on the poorer streets of Shanghai, all those bikes just caught my eye!
2009. B/W film, as is. A man, who had been searching garbage bins along a street in a commercial center, approached another man who was trying to find something of value in a bin. The first man took a clean bran-new cigarette from his pocket and gave it to the other man. The neat white cigarette almost shone in the darkness. The second man, looking at it, “Where did you find it?” He asked with surprise. “Someone gave it to me.” The man said. He left quickly, probably heading to another bin. The proceeds from this item will be donated to Farestart.
In my community the homeless shelter assists its residents by employing them to sell newspapers on street corners. I know this man personally. He suffers from diabetes and has had most of his feet amputated. Yet here he is, in pain, cold, and homeless trying to earn some money selling newspapers. / MCN:C31-TFZT-3120 For more information, and to find out how YOU can help end homelessness, visit The National Alliance To End Homelessness

A girl from Taquile, Island in Titikaka lake is filling her cup with drinking water. The houses are built from mud and stones, and there are no running water or plumbing in the houses. Beds are built in from mud above the floor and a mat is placed on top. I spent two days in this house and the family hospitality was incredible.

House Republicans voted in a block against the economic stimulus package that will provide jobs for millions of Americans. The measure passed since the Democratic Party holds a majority of seats in the House. The NO vote clearly demonstrates the Republican economic philosophy. If it helps big business and banks the answer is YES YES YES. But working people? Small business? Women? Minorities? NO NO NO money for you!
