Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

We're enjoying the warmer weather here in Florida having escaped the icebox of the middle of the country. If you've ever wondered, here is your evidence for why photographers are the people behind the lens.

Stay warm, eat well, enjoy the time with those you love.

Best wishes,

The Writers Project - Image #1

Image copyright 2008 Byron O'Neal

The Writers Project began in my head as a mechanism to make people aware of the beauty of tagging. I am choosing to do all the images in this series in black and white to keep things simple and focus on the lines and shapes that are a natural product of this art form. I see many similarities between the traditions of calligraphy and modern "writing." 

I hope you see a simple beauty in these images.

It was 19 degrees and snowing yesterday while I was out shooting. Clearly considering the two words in the title, I wanted to get warm.

Street Cones in the Sun

Image Copyright 2008 Byron O'Neal

I found an interesting pile of street paraphernalia while walking around downtown today. The white and orange colors are from a group of forty  or so street cones. The blue is a passing truck and the yellow a pedestrian sign. The flares were created by shooting into the sun. With the holidays around the corner, it made me think of Christmas Lights as I was chimping looking for the right shot.

New ONeal Urban design - One World

My "One World" design is now available at ONeal Urban. Help a starving (ok,  so maybe not exactly starving but relatively needy anyway) artist out and buy a unique gift for Christmas. I got you covered from dog bowls to thongs. 

Coming soon is my expanded kid's clothing line, which will include options for moms as well so they can match. Don't ask me. I'm just fulfilling my customer's requests.
