Photo of the Day by Daran Herrman – October 2013

Welcome to ColoredLion.com’s photo of the day for October 2013
Hi, my name is Daran Herrman and I love to take photos of just about everything and photography has taken me just about everywhere. I tend to only edit 1-5% of the photos I take and even fewer get shared. Sharing on time is also tough so I decided to create a page where I can post photos daily – some are super old and some are new but all are a brief moment in my life that I deeply enjoyed. Come back often as photos are posted daily!

Here are a few of the first Photo’s of the day:

09/12/13 – Photo of the Day – Lady in Red

This is one of my favorite photos that I have captured and was a non-paying non-project shoot. A few of us (hair and makeup, stylist, model and me) to just have fun and see what we can come up with. The result was great and I really need to do this again when I have that time thing. View the rest of the photos HERE.

09/10/13 – Photo of the Day – Sarah Jane on the Mandolin

Sarah Jane is such a wonderful person to work with and is an amazing artist. View more photos here: http://www.coloredlion.com/2011/03/16/sarah-jane-band-photoshoot/

09/09/13 – Photo of the Day – Ghostland Observatory

Oh, Ghostland. You have a special place in my heart. If you haven’t been to a Ghostland Observatory show you are missing out on a very cool and fun event. I say event because the laser light show in itself is worth the sticker price let alone the great music. I always love shooting their shows.

09/07/13 – Photo of the Day – Bri and the Gang

Tonight some friends of mine and I will be going to Bri Bagwell‘s show so this is a perfect photo of the day. This was taken at Rebecca Creek Winery, which is around College Station. This picture really captures the close relationship Bri and the Banned have and they are always a blast to be around.

09/05/13 – Photo of the Day – SF Bridge

So I just completed the amazing drive on the PCH (hwy 1) from LA to SF and I wanted to wake up really early to get pictures of the golden gate bridge but ended up being a late night. I left my hotel at around 6:30am (flight was at 8:30) and sped around in my crappy rental car to get this photo and then rush to the airport just to miss my flight… I’m sure it’s not the last time I will miss a flight for a photo and, to me, it was totally worth it.

09/04/13 – Photo of the Day – Monklemore

This was a fun night. Atlas Genius opened for Macklemore and Ryan Lewis and they brought down the house. It was a small venue and Macklemore had a different backup singer for every song and a killer trumpet player. This photo was taken during ‘Can’t Hold Us’ and Macklemore started swinging from the rafters… it was super dark in the middle of the crowd but thankfully someone took a photo with a flash in front of him so it lighted my photo uniquely.

09/04/13 – Photo of the Day – Seeking Shelter in You

Sometimes you just get lucky. As a photographer you get to hang out with couples that are crazy in love with each other and just being around them creates wonderful art. It was raining out so we sought shelter in the trees.

09/03/13 – Photo of the Day – Cool Pool Party… La, La, La, La

This is a fun photo that reminds me of growing up and playing at the pool. I did some crazy editing and the kid getting pushed in is a little out of focus but I still love it.

09/02/13 – Photo of the Day – Lakeshore Drive

Oh Chi-town – you are a badass city and I love you for it (besides how expensive you are!) Here is a photo taken with Canon’s EOSm camera with the kit 22mm f/2.0 lens – edited with Photoshop and Topaz Adjust plug-in… such a great feeling to be able to take photos like this with such a small camera.
