The Galactic Library

I asked my good friend Xyrrell Demmitt for some ideas to realize in 3D. He told me he was working on a new poem called "The Galactic Library" and would love to have visuals for it. A month and half and one entirely scrapped project later, this is what I came up with.

So what do you guys think? Criticisms and critiques welcome :D

and I started hiking the lower emerald pools trail and found that half the trail was blocked by a rockslide. Ended up going from the other end of the trail and hiking backwards to enjoy the rest of it. Amazing views all around.

Waded through rushing rapids and risked my camera for 15 minutes to get these long exposure shots. Worth it. Overall, the Zion Narrows is probably one of the best hikes I’ve ever been on in my life. @ The Narrows, Zion National Park

Sunset at the docks.

Been a while since I've posted but I've finally been getting those creative juices flowing again! Had a flurry of this shoots this past week and they were all so much fun to do! Thanks .study.in.charlotte and her dog Butterscotch for being such awesome models!
