Gnomes In The Home

April 30th, 2009 at 2:52 pm by --KALEB NATION--

As part of school finals for my Digital Photography and Design class, I am required to present a twenty-photo body of work to show off the skills I’ve learned this semester. Never one to veer far from the predictable, I chose Gnomes In The Home as my subject:

To get these exactly right, I had to take nearly 300 photographs, and pick the best ones for the project. Anyone who has read the preview chapters of my book will catch tiny inside jokes mingled in with the photos. Special thanks to those fans who have mailed me gnomes over the past few months. They look quite nice staring back at me from my bookshelf!

    You should make slideshow of these gnome photos, playing the song "White Winter Hymnal" by Fleet Foxes.
    I always think of my own gnomes when I hear that song.
  • Jackie
    I love Fleet Foxes!

    But when does it mention gnomes in White Winter Hymnal?
  • sveta

  • Love the gnomes Kaleb! You are so funny!

    Everyone, please check out my personal web site www.sarahlenorewright.com.

    The creation of this site was inspired by Kaleb Nation and Stephanie Meyer (although it is a personal site, not a fansite).

    I have included original poetry, book reviews, and play lists. Of course, Bran Hambric and Twilight will always be a topic of conversation! Check me out and let me know what you think!
  • McKenzie
    I bought a paint-your-own-gnome set the other day,I thought of you. :-) Gnomes rock
  • Mich(elle) C.
    :) . Awesome Kale. Gnomes should be officialy and legally claimed by you. It kind of represents you in some way. When I think gnomes [which isn't a daily thing], I think of Mr. Kaleb Nation.
  • Stacy
    Haha, nice Kaleb.

    Side note, I preordered my copy last night. I would assume you know, but it's now available for preorder at B/N :)
  • I dont like gnomes.

  • ShannanG.
    Great job Kaleb, I bet you get an A!!
  • Jess
    aww the pictures are so cute! I love gnomes :)
  • Wren
    You're Welcome!
    No, really.
    That's quite a collection you have there, and some nice pictures and great angles. Do they own the place or do you? Hope they don't eat you out of house and home! (if so, I suppose you would be cursing your generous fans instead of thanking us)
  • NuttyNetty
    awwwwww they sleep in your bed too :) how cute
  • Gothhic Goddess
    Great job. The connections are adorable. I would love to get the middle picture in the 6th row, signed of course! ;)
  • Shannon
    I really like these. My favorite is the 6th one down first column.
  • Kate
    Oh my gosh, I love this sooooo much haha brilliance!
  • Good Job Kaleb! lol, this reminds me of the episode of Malcolm in the Middle when Dewey is afraid of a gnome. That episode is hilarious! :)
  • Mmary
    I sees some of the hidden meanings!!!

    Nice job, btw. You're making me consider photography as something to do.
  • MsKittyCullen

    ....to be honest they kind of scare me
    but the photos are awesome!
  • Karen
    Gnomes are creepy, lol. But I'm proud to say that I recognize one type of photo skill up there, and that's leading lines. :) I think I see rule of thirds up there too, but I'm not sure. I haven't taken a photography class since I was in high school. Great pictures.
  • Den Luna
    ooh, just luv every picture.!!
  • Ky

  • SheGoesByJazz
