Mr. Cool Week 9


This is a new picture that shows another bit of my personality. Sometimes i think of myself as a cool dude, with the hat on backwards and a leather jacket on. During my middle school and high school life, I thought of myself trying to look cool by wearing some of the things that the cool kids whore in the movies. I was also showing off and be part of the popular crowd. But as it turned out, that isn't how it worked, and I felt like an idiot trying to do the things that I thought happened in the movies. As it turned some of the kids usually broke some of the school rules, did things that weren't allowed on school grounds, and alot of things that I don't feel comfortable talking about. I didn't want to be part of it and instead of trying to turn into somebody that I'm not, I thought it be best just to be myself and become popular in my own way. I did become a little popular by being on the school honor roll and sometimes high honor roll, becoming an eagle scout, being in the art club as the assistant art designer to miss Eleanor Horst, and having some of my pieces put up on a wall in the school. This was taken on my drive way on 3/25/11. I did this by setting up my tripod with the timer set to 10 seconds. I had my camera set to manual with an aperture of f6.4 and a shutter speed of 400. The lighting came from half the sun and I got the good light from the flash on my camera, on a vertical angle.

Indiana Jimmy Week 8



This is a picture of me as the famous explorer and men of adventure, INDIANA JONES. I like to go on alot of adventures in my spear time and I usually think of myself as Dr. Jones when he goes on one of his famous treasure hunts. I've seen alot of his movies, and have a shirt and hat from him. I like Indiana Jones, he inspires me to do alot of adventures. Raiders of the lost ark has to be one of the best movies that had starred harrison ford. This was taken on 3/25/11 on my driveway. The way i took it, I had set it up on my tripod with the timer of 10 seconds and the photo came out good. The lighting came out from half the sun and the flash on my camera. The camera was set on manuel, With a aperture of f6.4 and a shutter speed of 400.

Jimmy as a kid week


This is me for when i was little. I usually made crazy stuff like a flash light helmit and etc. This was probablly taken in 1996, 1997, 1998 or 1999, I don't remember the year. I was little when this was taken and didn't have much experience in photography. My mother took this photograph of me. The mode might be manuel with an aperture of f6.4 with a flash and a shutter speed of 125. The lighting came from the flash from the camera.

Jimmy in night clothes and start of morning Week 7

This is a picture of me in my night clothes and what I look like when I get up in the morning for a new day. When I get up, my hair is messed up with curls and I’m usually grumpy in the morning by the look of the expression on my face. I’m not usually a morning person and I really like to sleep so that I can get a full ounce of energy. This photograph was taken on March 12, 2011, that’s a Saturday. This was taken on a camping trip that I went to with my Boy Scout troop. I had set up my camera on my tripod and set the timer to 10 seconds on a vertical angle. The lighting that I used was from the lights in the cabin that we stayed in. The mode on the camera was set to Manuel with an aperture of f6.4 and a shutter speed of 6. This describes my personality of how I feel when I wake up in the morning when not getting enough sleep.

Jimmy Harrington in Train Engineer uniform. Week 6


This is a picture of me in a train uniform. I wore something similiar to this back in high school. I was in a music contest and I sang the song "The Locomotion" and I also dressed the part. Sometimes I like to wear this suit and show myself off an a driver of a steam or diesel locomotive when I plan to pay with my model trains alone and I pretend I'm actually driving the train. I just love trains. I'm a train lover and collector, and some people think I'm crazy, but I'm crazy for trains and I can't stop it. My grandpa James Patrick Harrington and my father James Francis Harrington loved trains too, so this legacy runs in my blood. I even used a model train that belongs to my dad showing it as a symbol, thus showing how much I love trains. Before I was born, my father and grandfather build model trains and even build the parts they didn't have for the models. This was taken on march 5th 2011 during the night in my kitchen. This was set up on the tripod with a timer on the camera for 10 seconds. I used the light in my kitchen to do this portrait. The camera was set at the manuel mode, with an aperture of f2 and a shutter speed of 4. This reflects part of my personality on one of my hobbies.
