Well it's been a while since I last posted, and I usualy don't go this long. I guess sometimes I just don't feel like writing or sharing...
As of yesterday, it's been two months without smoking. One and a half pack-a-day habit...down to nothing. I had to go on a diet though...as I put on 10-12 lbs. Oh the joys. So now I don't get to smoke OR eat junk food...stupid health.
The job hunt has been painfully slow. I'm down to three days a week at the shop, which I guess is better than nothing. I had two interviews this week though, and both seem promising. One is working for a cell phone company, and the other is for a state Public Interest Research Group doing volunteer recruitment and running awareness campaigns! Cool huh?! Maybe I can get a career without selling my soul for an almighty dollar. I mean, I love "stuff" and buying toys as much as the next guy, but I know I should be asking myself the harder questions...is this really worth it. Who am I harming buy contributing to these mega-companies like Coke-a-Cola and their destruction of the world's water sources. What about Walmart and other big-box stores, Mobil-Exxon, tobacco companies (dealt with them already!), fast-food places....and the overall degradation of the local economy and the world's public health. I tell you, sometimes I really just feel overwhelmed.
I had a nice little write-up for my photography in the local newspaper up here The Glen Arbor Sun and it's led to a few paid gigs. Nothing huge, but I love doing it, so it's okay.
Also I've been experimenting more and more with digital B&W, which is still my favorite throwback to my film days..lol.
See for yourself: Fall beach weather
Foggy morning
Going to hell indeed! (This is on the way to Hell, Michigan)
Why Jazz is hot and cool at the same time

Dude, foggy morning is awesome! Keep shooting brother for the love of the shot, not the buck! Although there's nothing wrong with a buck!
