Well, I’ve recently launched a sister site to this one. It’s my first photoblog, and I’ve been posting some images, building the library, for the last month or two. I figured that I might as well post some of my better unrelated work in an online portfolio. A work in progress, but enjoyable work at that.
Jury is right around the corner, and thankfully it doesn’t fall on a workday. Will have to see what I can do about being booted off the panel, so open to suggestions
Well, for all those loyal fans out there, all 2 of you, I have recently updated some more of my fine textures. I know its been to long since my last update, but I have good reason. You can view them via the Updates page to see the most recent textures I’ve posted. I want to start shooting a different medium though, something that I can’t find just walking down the street. Some new fangled textiles or patterns would be great, so I guess I gotta start hunting down these sites in this ever changing metropolis of NYC.
This brings me to my next point. Being nearly 30, I’ve realized that I need to start putting my childish ways behind me and step up to the plate of responsibility. I’ve taken for granted alot of the things my life offers me, including those I love, and in turn I’ve come very close to losing it all. I can’t just hope my problems go away and need to deal with them head on. I know, a tangent that no one on earth other than myself would care about, but I needed to say it. Even if its only to my anonymous cohorts in internet crime.
As I make my way through this place and all these interesting sites, I am inundated with views of splendor. You can always find something unique and interesting to take pictures of. Whether it be an interesting landscape or a cop directing traffic, it truly is the city that never sleeps. I’ve updated the NYC gallery with some more of my visual escapades. Had the chance to just shoot he proverbial “Sh!t” with an old time hometown buddy on Memorial Day which is the reason for many of the updates. Perfect weather, sun in the sky, not a cloud to be seen. Got some new textures coming down the pipe as well, so stay tuned.
On a side note, I’ve been putting in the map coordinates for each of the pictures taken in or around NYC so you can see where these shots originated. I look forward to your feedback…
Well, after some pain in the ass troubleshooting, I went ahead and recreated the Metals album due to server issues. For some reason, it was the only album that wasn’t viewable for some unknown reason.  You can now view it in all of its intended glory, so please feel free to comment if your feeling ambitious. Still some troubleshooting to do, as the host be 1and1 and they can be difficult at times when it comes to support. Head on Over to the Textures page to link to said album or just click on the “metals” link above me.
On a side note, I just ebay’d the standalone Sony DVD recorder for a cool $100 with free shipping. It normally retails for $250 so I feel proud of myself. I’m sure you know the feeling if you’ve ever won an ebay auction. Only reason I mention it is because it gives me an easy way to backup all the pictures I’m taking. It accepts SD cards, woohoo!
Hey now. Don’t have much for you today, being that it’s a weekend, but what I do have for you is some pretty nifty software. If you’ve seen the Windows Vista debacle, than you have probably seen its funky cool way of switching between windows. I , for one, am going nowhere near that mess of an operating system. I use XP and found this handy little software package amongst my procrastination this week. It’s called Winflip and gives you a much nicer, cleaner, and more telling view of the running applications and switching between them.  You can find the software here.  In the meantime, I’m heading off to a buddy’s engagement party in the wonderful city of Cresskill, NJ. So close to my hometown, I may have to ask the bus driver to swing on by the old house in the best city on Earth; Bogota, NJ.
