Headed back to Florida today...Hooray for a 4-day weekend. Leaving from Tampa to Toronto on Tuesday. One great thing about working up in Canada is getting all the Canadian national holidays as well as the US holidays. I am not going to complain. wink
I get to open up my new laptop tonight when I get home. I bought a real screamer this time. Hopefully the...

Holy flip...the sun just came out in Wisconsin! I was starting to think it didn't exist up here. surreal
Last week the windchill here was 28 degrees. It's the middle of May people. That's just not right. For a change I was glad to be going back to Florida for the weekend. wink

Didn't get a chance to schedule any shoots while I was up here. That...

Well, I am back to the site. It's been awhile and I have to say that I have missed seeing some people and definitely I have missed seeing the work of some very talented and cool artists. I am very glad to be back.

Travelling has been pretty decent so far. Being away from home hasn't been too bad. I have to say that I...

Does anybody do decent webdesign? I am looking to set up a site for my photography work and would like something really nice.
violentlydave:
Yo dude! Had been meaning to shoot you an email to see how things were, after you'd dropped off the site for a while!

How's plant-city treating you? You've not been scientologized yet, right?
nikoli20:
Officially dropping you a message. Thanks for responding to my inquiry. I have one or two ideas. Would you like me to message you with them?

Well I made it to the great white north all in one piece. It's 25 degrees outside and there is snow on the ground. Will probably snow tomorrow sometime they say. Minnesota is a beautiful place. Very secluded and quiet, just the way I like it. I ended up not packing any of my camera gear this trip. Not enough space in my carry-on. I...

hey dude..... wtf ya doin' up in the north?!

long time no freakin "hey yo ya doin".. so hey.. how ya doin?

on the small camera... gotta tell ya, do it, it's fun. I finally, just a week or two ago, gave in and did it. Always thought "I should get a good, small digicam.. but I could spend that money on a lens!".. not until my birthday a few weeks back did I give in.. we were at a bar w/ a bunch of peeps and my brother's fiance whips out her like $200 kodak p+s and I played w/ it in some and realized, screw it.. Imma do it.

Picked up a Canon S80. So far, very happy.. it's the higher-ish-end of their small p+s line.. Over all, love it. I'll warn you on the two down sides, #1 -- max iso of 400, #2 -- no RAW. Those two put together kinda suck, but for the shooting I do it's really not THAT BIG an issue... except for concerts... but, I can drag out the big gear for that. Quick "snaps" (with flash), or well lit shots (even a decent macro) at low iso.. nice, works.

This is a long overdue update...

The last year for me was a dodgy one at best. Fortunately things look like they are getting better and better as I go forward into 2006. Don't get me wrong, there were some really great times in '05 but for the most part it just blew personally. Thank goodness for great friends is all I have to say...

Well...the Gala Corina show went really well. Didn't sell any pieces this show, but the exposure was really great and I made some really good contacts/friends in the community.
Now I want to get off my butt and shoot more.

Who wants to be a model and come make pretty things??? biggrin

A couple of the core members of the Gala show hit me up about...

Whew...just got done hanging all my pieces for the GALACORINA art show that I am part of this year. It's a very big deal and i am so glad i got in. Those of you local should make it a point to come out and support your local arts community.
violentlydave:
Werd, props for getting in. I think I've harassed you before about getting into it.. it was kinda a no-brainer that you'd get in (that's not an attempt to steal from the fact that you got in, but an attempt to say good things about your photography)..

Hope that the bidness cards will result in some sales for you.

hello kiddies.
i am back from the dead.
the hiatus forced upon me by a severely fucked hard drive was a killer.
here i am...back with a vengeance.

biggrin
violentlydave:
hey dude!

just this morning was thinking "need to check to see when chris's crew is going out shooting".. then sister called about galacorina (I've been too busy, so didn't even bother entering this year).. saw the artist list .. saw an old friend in there, then noticed you were showing too!

werd up! definately gonna show up, keep an eye out for my bearded, balding fat ass!
violentlydave:
Whee.. yeah, I didn't enter. This last year or so's been hectic in many annoying and often bad ways, so I realized if I submitted anything it'd probably be old stuff, which kinda feels like a cop out when you've already been in it a few times wink ..

Other friend = a female photog. Petite blond. Don't want to post her name here, will email you. Met her + her hubby the first year I did the Gala (he was in it that year.. he's a bizarre but bad ass painter/drawing type guy, she's a photog).. so hopefully that's a good thing for you going into the gala, 2 people that I've kept up w/ since meeting 'em 2 yrs ago at the show.

book thing? i'm interested in doing any and everything. i've decided i need to commit myself to this thing a bit more, and made a few "life decisions" to help make that happen. if you have any project at all you think i might be helpful/suited for, lemme know, i'm in.

i'll shoot you an email via your contact in a few w/ a cell #. i'm definately in for the opening night (friday), so will definately see ya.
