Venice Anniversary

It was one year ago that Faded & Blurred organized its first photo walk… twelve photo walks, one website, a podcast, and one great community later, we celebrated back where it started, Venice Beach:

Worldwide Photo Walk – L.A. 2010

Although I had done photo walks on my own quite a bit in the past, one year ago was my first photo walk with more than just a few people. It was such a great experience that Frank, Jeffery, and myself formed Faded & Blurred. A lot has happened in the past year and it only seemed fitting that we go back to Los Angeles for this year’s Worldwide Photo Walk.

The Getty

Another Faded & Blurred photo walk this weekend… this one to the Getty Center in LA. We were worried the rain would stick around since that was the forecast, but Frank said he called in some favors and we had beautiful skies all day.

The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life.
