Amazing Ring Race Chicago 2011

noreply@blogger.com (rob at titanvisuals) — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 13:03:00 +0000

"It was great seeing everyone out for the Amazing Ring Race this last weekend. Scvngr just put up a gallery of my photos from the event here.

"On August 28th, Fey & Co. Jewelers built the "Amazing Ring Race" trek on SCVNGR all through downtown Chicago. This trek had people going places, doing challenges and earning points. The challenges asked people to solve location-based riddles, take photos and more! The top scorer at the end of the day came away with a $15,000 ArtCarved diamond ring!"

There's also a video slideshow of my images on amazingringracechicago.com as well.

Little Lincoln.

I never noticed that there was a little Lincoln statue in the center of the back of a penny. Found this corroded piece on the street, and it made for some great textures when lit just right -

Trash the Dress

noreply@blogger.com (rob at titanvisuals) — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 18:17:00 +0000

I was recently asked to do a "Trash the Dress" photoshoot. Our original plan was to try to set the dress on fire, but due to the material we had safety concerns.

Becki knew of some great locations to try, and most of these are from the second. It was a little late in the season for us to be wading into the lake, but we ended up having a great day for it. It was still chilly though, so I was glad to have towels and a warm car nearby.

Thanks!

A 360° stitch of the University of Illinois quad, as a little planet.

A much larger one is here. We stopped in Champaign on the way back from a recent trip to St. Louis, as I haven't been there in quite a few years. Driving through town Its odd to see what's changed and what hasn't.

Playing with Matches

noreply@blogger.com (rob at titanvisuals) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 03:12:00 +0000

Playing with matches, and my 7D. With a macro lens and a LOT of light, these are extremely detailed - the second photo is a 100% crop of the first, my intention is to make large-scale prints on canvas with these.

Lakefront Birdhouses

noreply@blogger.com (rob at titanvisuals) — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 15:08:00 +0000

Birdhouses on the Chicago lakefront - taken with a point and shoot wallet-sized Olympus. It may not be nearly as high quality as my full cameras, but due to the small lens size it has a huge depth-of-field. I like how the three clouds mimic them.

Southwest Michigan Critters

noreply@blogger.com (rob at titanvisuals) — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 18:56:00 +0000

While we were having breakfast outside of the White Rabbit Inn in Lakeside Michigan, this little guy was joining us.

Found this praying mantis outside of an antiques store in Union Pier Michigan. Luckily I had my macro lens nearby in the car.

Burnt Church

Shot in an abandoned, burnt church in Gary, IN. All shot at the exact same spot to keep the dress clean.

7-photo stitch

noreply@blogger.com (rob at titanvisuals) — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 21:50:00 +0000

A 7-photo stitch of the chicago skyline, color edited and saturated. I've been meaning to shoot some large-scale panoramics like this, with the intent of having prints made on canvas and stretchers. A few more and I'll attempt a print run. I'm really looking forward to having a 3ft x 8ft version of something like this - There's so much detail, it mostly gets lost when I try to show it online.

Photo links to a 1500px-version on flickr.

July 4th Bouquet.

I took quite a few shots of fireworks out in Lombard on the 4th, and just found this amongst them.
