This handsome looking fellow is the newest addition to the family. My mom named him Tupac. I know. Ridiculous. He is sweet and lovable. Also difficult to photograph. Stay tuned for Alaska pics and art over the next several days.

Hello Again. It has been a while since my last post. I apologize. Here is something new to feast your eyes upon...

Tonight I was feeling artsy and decided to do some portraits of my favorite literary greats. Here is what I came up with. Oh, and if you can name all five for me, consider us friends. Once school is out for the quarter expect to see more art/photography/design/alaska stuff. See you then.

"Wouldn't you like to get away?

Kerouac's beckoning with open arms,

And open fields of eucalyptus

Westward bound

Wouldn't you like to get away?

Give yourself up to the allure of

Catcher In The Rye

The future's swathed in Stars and Stripes"

Happy Birthday Ellie, Happy Halloween Olympia.

We ventured down to Olympia for some Halloween and Birthday festivities. These shots turned out pretty cool. (Ignore this dewidowizer)

Reacquainted love affair.

Hello Again. Recently I acquired a Minolta X-700 camera (the same one I used in my high school photo classes). I haven't shot with this, or any other 35mm in nearly 3 years. Suffice to say, I'm a little rusty. Here are a few shots from the first two rolls of film (both were 3 years old). Enjoy.

Hello there, welcome to my blog.

My name is Dane Herforth. I am a graphic design student at SCCA. This will be a place where I can post my artwork/design/photographs. I will also freely speak my mind.
