Planet Jyro – Flickr Feature

Our flickr group is literally filled with talent – and P-Jay Wyche is no exception. Wyche is a photographer living in Japan with a diverse portfolio of landscape, portraiture and motion photography. His quirky and colorful style has a way of drawing you in and never letting go.

Photography has been a growing passion for Wyche since being introduced to its many possibilities by a friend shooting film in 2001.
He taught Wyche the fun of long exposures one night by running around with a flash while leaving the shutter open. There’s an awesome kind of mystery in slow exposures because you never know what the outcome will be but Wyche thought it was the coolest thing ever, and hasn’t stopped ever since.

His fantastic slow exposures and experimental night photography is seriously inspirational, and looks like a ton of fun! Here are a few selections from Wyche’s 2012 ongoing 365 photo project:

"Like a Top"

"Blue Street"

"High Speed Low Drag"

"Morito Sunset"

"Hyper Market"

Even though he’s only been shooting with his DSLR for 4 years, Wyche is doing some seriously cool stuff.  He creates amazing photos out of the things we see everyday (even the grocery store), and it makes me want to get out and try some photo experiments of my own. Wyche says that he “looks at the world as a series of connecting photos and my job would be to extract the most interesting ones with my camera.”

We can’t wait to see the rest of P-Jay’s 365 project! If you’d like to check out more of Wyche’s awesome work, hop over to his flickr page or visit his personal website and show your support!
