I have several images that are selected to be part of an exhibit at the SDHM exhibit: Water-A California Story. Yay!

Yes. I shall have one. In white.

Damn you Apple.

Update: Maybe I won’t. Now that I see that the service costs more and that there really isn’t that much of a difference. Many of the new advertised features are coming out for my Gen1 iPhone, and the Google Phone is right around the corner.

1. The X-Files Movie.
2. The Kung-Fu Panda Movie (which I have been told lends some resemblance to yours truly).
3. Journey plays in San Diego
4. Steaks in San Antonio

Man, I can’t remember the last time I actually downloaded some blog worthy words from my mind to this blog.

Things have been so insane lately. We got this task of taking pictures of an entire gymnastics team–that took us to getting up before 5 in the morning to do our day jobs to get out and take pictures until about 8 at night, which of course was about an hour from our house, and then going through the pictures to make sure they were all sharp. That was tough. Not to mention that two weeks before, I was sweating in nasty New Orleans.

I also got a new digital camera body, and two new lenses (the same one–18-50 f/2.8, because the original broke…then suddenly the second one broke). And now I have to wait for B&H Photo to reopen (they’ve been closed for the past week for holiday) to return the lens…which is weird because I am heading back to New York next week–so I should just drop it off. Eh, I don’t know. This lens is making me lose faith in Sigma, though I am in love with their 10-20mm.

So pretty much, for the past couple months, I’ve been all about taking pictures. I got to experience a ton of new things, like professionally taking pictures, to coming up with a mobile studio, to a crash course on lighting. Not to mention the ongoing addiction to Flickr.

This won’t let up, either. I mean, next week, I’m back in New York. Then soon after, it’s a photo excursion to Page, Arizona for some Antelope Canyon loving. Then quite literally afterwards, I am going to San Antonio for some food and photography. Plus, I have to sprinkle in a return trip to New Orleans and Denver somewhere in there.

So there you have it. I spend as much time on the shutter as I do clicking the left mouse button.

I want you to know that I am doing my part to meet the crisis by reducing my carbon footprint, big time.
Everytime I am rushed to the hospital, I insist on a hybrid ambulance.
