This is definately one of the cooler things I've seen in a while

Would be awesome to be able to go out and do a project like this.

Journalism

Sometimes I wonder if I should have been a Photojournalist.
"I was in a bus when I saw a man shot dead on the road. People passed by. Further down the road, I saw a dog that had been run over by a car. There was a group of dogs gathered around his corpse, mourning his death. What does this say about us?"

Mimi Chakarova is doing some great things.

My Photos

So I FINALLY scanned in pictures from my Photography 1 class.
It was all 35mm old school photo. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun.

I'm gonna post my final project in a few days when I have the time, but till then enjoy what I have up and leave any comments!!

Postographs

I love good imagery. 

This Blog is pretty dang cool. 

The posts are collections of photographs that (I assume) are collected based upon a certain theme. While the blog might not save the world, this chick really has an eye for good photography. Some of the pictures are stunning and it's fun to see the progression through the images within a post.

RomkaMagazine

Ok, this is one of the coolest online mags I've found yet. It's sooo beautiful. Basically...

"ROMKA is an online magazine which features the personal favorite photographs of international artists, amateurs and professionals. It is dedicated to the idea of showing one's treasures without the pressure of self-portrayal and a clean online portfolio..."

So it's a photography magazine, but so much more than that because anyone can submit the pictures and the purpose is to show people's favorite pictures and thoughts, not just 'quality' work. The authenticity makes it so beautiful. I guess it's kinda like a postsecret/photography magazine? Without the emo-ness. Anyways they have just two issues out right now, but each one is awesome.

Ok yeah I know, I know. Usually I try not to want things that are way out of my price range. I'm totally  not one of those kids that always wants more things, or wants unrealistically expensive things. Buuuuut, i really want a M8 haha. Can you blame me? Hmmm, maybe I need a real job before I can afford fun toys like this. Till then, I'll just wish!

Soooooo, I also created my first website. Parr Bear needed a website for his starting up photography business and I made him his first site! Not perfect, but pretty dang good for a first site I'd have to say. Took me foreeeeeever to learn how to make it, but I'm super happy with it and I hope he is too. Anyways, if ya haven't check it out! And let me know what ya think.

HEEEEEYYYYY ALLLLLL

Sooooo sorry buds that it's been so long since my last post. Thanks for sticking with me kids! I'll probably post a few in the next few days to make up for myself!! 

Anyways, I've been super busy; dislocating my patella, designing my first website, starting a design/photography company with a friend of mine, watching oscar movies, and of course, doing school fun. Soooo I guess the next few posts will be on these fun things starting with me knee.

So I was at Krav Maga and I dislocated my patella, hope none of you get queasy from pics!! Haha, here's me in the hospital before they popped it back it...

I'm walking and all that fun now, but I'll have to get surgery soon to reconnect my lateral collateral tendon, and to realign my kneecap. I can walk and stuff now so it's all good. Anyways, hope ya laughed at the pic! Haha
