lol, I lost mine in the snow last winter. Found it several months later, an interesting relic of winter in the yard. It messed me up for a while, since it's my only phone, but it was nice, no calls from work in the middle of the night

Venturing sucks sometimes.

Lovely pics.
I'd like to see this one in original version.

hey!! sock girl!!! our paths cross again. i was just raving about SockDreams in the Streetwear group. my wishlist seems to keep growing...

excellent photography. i've never seen Luna but i have friends who are following them on this last tour... i think they have been now for about two months. again... stunning photo work.


oh *whispers... it's Atari by the way

Nice shot above...

Hot tubs will rock and I've got member coupons too

I've spent entirely too much money on toys from Madame S this week. Life will go on. Must stock up on good stuff while in SF...

I read an Encylopedia Brown story about drunken birds once. I don't think any of them died.

Those Cedar Waxwings do like to party. They make all kinds of noise.

You have no idea how good it feels to be done right now. I don't feel like anything's looming over my shoulder anymore. I can just get on with my life. Ah, the freedom!

as always, your pictures are beautiful.

will you teach me how to do something with my camera other than point and shoot?

rectal scabs huh?

as always, the pics live up to, and well past, expectations.

btw, that russian roulette thing is fucking awesome

It does sound like the 24-70mm f/2.8L is right up your alley, that would have been my recommendation if you've got the budget. Since you're doing PJ work, having the flexibility probably overrides sharpness/max aperture considerations. The Tamron really is pretty decent though, so if you can't spring for the L immediately you should consider it. Having a f/2.8 with the 20D is a great combination and in terms of the tradeoff in max-aperture you genuinely gain a stop over the 10D or comparable camera. I have absolutely no qualms about shooting in 3200, and push in RAW to over 6400 pretty regularly. I definitely recommend shooting RAW though, the 20D's JPEG output is pretty shitty in comparison.

As for toting around that much gear... I definitely think about it, but I don't really have any worries. Chapel Hill ain't exactly a high-crime neighborhood and people are very respectful of "real" photographers at the places I frequent. I don't carry around all my gear all the time - usually just three lenss - the 35, 85 and 135.

Yeah, good luck - it's notoriously hard to get. You basically just have to place an order and keep your fingers crossed.

What I did was check stock with B&H and Calumet daily. I saw some stock come in at Calumet one morning, placed my order, and by the end of the day they were all gone!

I really like that black and white. excellent feel.

Those shoes remind me of the kit-kat clock I had when I was a kid.

I especially like the photo of you that looks like it was painted.

Girls don't post nekkid pictures of themselves in the comments at my journal.

mmm...book of sushi.

almost as good as being given real sushi to eat.

Must be one of those "teach a man to fish" things....

i wish i knew more about sushi. i tried it once but i think i tried the wrong thing since it was nasty
i need to go somewhere and let the chef take care of me and show me whats good

I liked my panashot til I noticed I completely missed some editing dead conter
If I get in the mood I'll go re-edit that so it is finished. To the right you see the train station, Straight ahead is downtown and ahead & to the left is Pike Place Market. Directly behind me in that shot is Qwest stadium, that is where the show is held
