Update! Update!

After a month long absence, I’ve decided to get back to the blog and make an attempt at posting something new and interesting, partly because I know some may be sick of seeing the photos I published over a month ago, and partly because I finally have taken something that I think is worth putting up online.

Before I talk about the new work I want to just briefly bore you with a short preamble regarding the past months endeavors.

I am sometimes amazed at how quickly time can fly, here it is the middle of July and I can’t help but wonder what happened in to the month of June. As you may or may not recall, May was a bit on the busy side for me, and for reasons still unknown, June seemed to be the polar opposite. Days without assignments became more and more common and quickly I found myself longing for the days of back-to-back assignments, which I came to expect during the month of May.

Outside work I continued to attempt to fill my free time with something fun, most notably a failed attempt at adopting a dog - which I even came up with a name for, before realizing that my lease doesn’t even permit me to have a cat.

I’ve extended my circle of friends by a few after getting to know the employees of the local coffee shop, where I seem to spend almost all of my money as well as most of my free time.

Other than that things have been pretty stable. I eat, sleep every once and a while, read when I can, and go to work most times in between.

As for work, I’ve spent the past week or so really working at developing photo slideshows accompanied by audio. I’ve made two attempts, one which was a disaster at best, and the second, a mild success. The amount that I have learned in only a couple of attempts has been incredible, however, I am also coming to the realization that gathering, edited and presenting audio along with stills is tremendously complex… Complex but exciting.

The two images that I have posted below aren’t really anything to write home about but I thought they were interesting enough to share. The second was actually taken in an indoor rodeo arena and this gentleman on the horse happened to walk in front of an open garage door. I saw the opportunity for a cool silhouette and when he walked by again I fired off a few frames. I kind of wish the background wasn’t so distracting but oh well.


So that’s that. Thanks for stopping by to take a look. Hopefully I’ll be able to start turning out some more photos so I can post more often. Until then, take’r easy!
