amateur photography from the omega happening gallery

Q: What is this all about anyway?
A: The Omega Happening attempts to find beauty in ordinary things through the venue of unprofessional photography.

Q: And who came up with this idea?
A: We did!

Q: What's so great about finding beauty in everyday things?
A: We live in a very small town (we just got our first Starbuck's last year) and pointing out the beauty in the simple things really seems to take the edge off.

Q: Can't anyone do that?
A: Sure. And we want you to do it too. If you come up with something good, we'd love for you to submit it to the gallery. We're hoping to get as many people possible from around the world in on it. We don't need all the glory for ourselves.

Q: How do I do it?
A: Take a camera around and see what you find in your area. Photoshop it, drool on it, leave it the same, whatever you want.

Q: How can you put "art" on tee shirts and notecards? Isn't that a little tacky?
A: It's not tacky. It's ironic.

Q: Who is this "we" that you keep talking about, anyway?
A: Jamie and Kelly.

Q: I'd like to know more about this "Jamie and Kelly"
A: We already filled out our myspace profiles and don't feel the need to ever go through trying to present ourselves in a clever way again.

Q: The word "happening" makes me think of hippies. Are you a bunch of hippies?
A: No.

Q: Why doesn't your website look better?
A: We're not professional web designers. If you are and you'd like to help out, contact us!

Q: Is there anything else I need to know? I'm tired of reading these obviously contrived questions and answers.
A: Nope. All done.
