Willis Creek - Circleville,Texas
I decided to take two of my kids fishing today, we went along with our good friend Matt decided to go out for a few hours. There is this little creek about 40 miles outside Austin in a small little town. We had not done that in a very long time not because of the lack of wanting too but because of the lack of a combination of a few other things. The kids were very excited as well as very anxious to finally have an opportunity to go fishing. Matt was more or less our "guide" without him we would have been lost.
It could not have been a more beautiful day for fishing, the kids had a blast and I had blast baiting their hooks as well as watching their excitement as they reeled the fish in. All in all I enjoyed spending some quality time with them. We'll be returning back to that creek very, very soon.
*** Photographed w/ Polaroid 440 Land camera, 667 3,000 ISO Black & White film in early afternoon sunlight/shade. All images were scanned and were worked on using PS, levels, contrast were slightly adjusted, sharpened, dodged and burned.***

Polaroids, Polaroids, Polaroids
At the risk of sounding all mushy & gushy I'd like to take a few moments and declare some of my love for Polaroid prints. When I first bought my Land camera I never really thought the camera would even work much less help me create great images, well at least in some cases the images were great. At any rate I think I will be using this camera quite a bit, even with all it's quirks I think the images are great, light leaks, over exposure,under exposure out of focus and in focus I believe the images are in a class all their own. Singular and unique.

Zilker Park - Austin,Texas
A beautiful breezy day,a little on the cool side but not cold enough to keep us inside. We had to drive downtown to pick up prints and decided to stop by Zilker park.
Their were plenty of grownups out with their children. We saw families, couples, teens as well as plenty of bikers and joggers. What a way to spend a day. If feels good when you get out and about and catch some fresh air.
I've included these two black and white Polaroids captured with my 440 Land camera.

Children's Baptism's - Polaroid 440 Land Camera & 3000 ISO 667 Black & White Film
Here are some additional Polaroids from this past Sunday evening's children service at New Life Church in Austin, Texas. The evening was filled with songs, music, praise and worship, as the visiting children's minister encouraged both young and old to seek the Lord with an open heart, the people worshiped the Lord in spirit and truth and there was no lack of enthusiasm from the congregations children either.
The children were equally excited, there was no lack of emotion or spiritual hunger from them, as they sought a special touch from the Lord Jesus, they sought the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues according to Acts 2:38 and other biblical passages.
All of these Polaroids images are very special to me, not only because of the significance that each image holds but because of their small size. Each Polaroid is one of a kind, each a unique creation that will never be reproduced. There is no negative, there is nothing for me to go back to and reproduce from ever again. These images were all captured with my vintage Polaroid 440 Land Camera in existing light with fast 3,000 ISO 667 film, one other item I'd like to mention is that the grain on this film is hardly noticeable. You'd think that because I was using a 3,000 speed film that there would be lots & lots of noticeable grain, but it's just not the case and this my friends makes me very happy.

Prayer - Polaroid 440 Land Camera & 3000 ISO 667 Black & White Film
Here are some additional images from Sunday night's children service at New Life Church in Austin, Texas. I love photography and everything photographic, I love photographing the people from New Life church as they pray. I love capturing all the emotion the love, joy, faith, tears, excitement and overall power that I feel when I am in this place. If there is one thing about Apostolic people is that they know how to worship the Lord Jesus. If you are in need of prayer by all means come to an Apostolic service and you'll be prayed for with a fervency you've never experienced.
Overall I love the way the images turned out, I scanned the small prints on a flat bed scanner then adjusted the levels in Photoshop and sharpened slightly, I wish the images would've turned out a lot sharper but what do you expect when your using a vintage camera with inferior optics. I tried for a consistent look for all 4 images, they were captured within minutes of each other but due to the different angles, lighting etc. I don't think I could do better. I also dodged the top two images slightly as well, as these were the two images with more people in them. I worked on trying to lighten the facial areas.( Photographed with Polaroid 440 Land Camera w/ 3000 ISO 667 film.)
The Lord says, come:
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. - Revelation 3:20

Joshua Elijah's Baptism - New Life Church Austin, Texas
Last night during one of our final Sunday night children's service, our son Joshua was finally baptized by Pastor David K. Bernard. When we first started to attend New Life church in Austin, Texas Joshua was a little over a year old. He is now 8 years old and our little man is now Holy Ghost filled and baptized in Jesus name.
I am so proud of my son. He is the sweetest most caring little boy; I often wondered why the good Lord blessed me with such a fine son. I used to think that he blessed me with him because of the fact that I grew up without a father myself and this in turn would help me to become the father I never had or thought I was blessed with him because of a deep desire to have a son to raise or yet maybe because of the hurts and pains I felt as a young boy and not having a father to turn too in my time of need. In a way I feel the Lord did answer my prayers regarding all these different things in my life, but I finally realized something. The Lord finally showed me why I was blessed with him, and I understood it like this; he is not mine to keep or own but he was put in my life for a season to teach him, nurture him, look over him and raise him in the way's of the Lord, to raise a man after God's own heart. And as parent this is my whole purpose as a father. I love you son.
