i am a camera

Finally, an actual assignment to show. My food shots so far this term are all in limbo until my instructor returns them and I get 'em scanned. In the meantime, another digital illustration inspired by a line in Christopher Isherwood's Berlin Stories:

"I am a camera with its shutter open, quite passive, recording, not thinking."

I had to shoot it with that crappy Nikon 990 again, since the rest of my department appears to have discovered the Canon D60 - it seems to be altogether unavailable these days. I actually worked on this a bit with a Wacom tablet at school. I liked it so much, I ordered one. Trying to do retouching and compositing work with a mouse now feels like painting with a bar of soap. I think I won't be going back.
