homework!

this weekend i worked my ass off on homework. i feel as if i got nothing done. i did take a break sat. afternoon and went and hung out with some friends for an hour or so. they had the coolest dog ever, and now i want a greyhound. and on sunday i played drums at church. nothing else to report.

THE CLUB

the most recent photos from the curling club.

GARDEN

here are the shots i took at the garden. it was a lot of fun.

Grab a pint!

some ale to lick my wounds from playing at the curling club......... i really like this image because of the lighting and the reflection of the word "ALE" in the glass.

stone

here is yet another curling photo. i got into the club last night and i had the place to myself. had some fun sliding around on the ice and getting hurt a little but it is all ok, just a few bruises.
more to come........

jump suits are cool!

another fun curling night.

Not One Stone

this is Amber singing at her concert at trocaderos.

eat my shorts Bob Gruen!!!!

just kidding. last night was really cool. it was nice to hear another photographer talk about their work.

tea party

these are some photos i took at the tea party protest that happened on the state capital front lawn. i'm not one for protesting. i don't care the issue or debate, i just don't see the point. if you want something to change, you change it. "." the thing about America though is that everyone is trying to make a buck. everyone wants money! as a member of the U.S. military i can't really fight against the government and don't want to. i know that there are corrupt people in our congress and legislation. these are the people that should be brought to justice. this idea might be a little crazy, but shouldn't the congressmen be only paid enough to just get by? maybe the government could set up housing for them to live in, the government should pay for their food, and that should be all they get. they are serving the people and they should not be living better than the people they speek for.

am i protesting something by posting this blog?

Happy Easter

These are some images of my Easter. i had the opportunity to be in a passion play at my parent's church. my part was small but important. my role was as thief #2 "the good thief" if you do not know the story, i am the thief that repents on the cross. he asks Jesus to remember him when he enters into God's Kingdom, and Jesus replies "today you will be with me in paradise." it was an interesting experience and changed my perspective on what Jesus went through when he was crucified.

EDICT

here are some more curling club photos. i meet up with two teams and learned that curling is a game of edict. it is a splicing of three games, getting closest to the center is similar to "horse shoes," putting english on the stone or "rock" to make it "curl" (from which the term "curling" comes from) is similar to "billiards," and the edict is similar to "golf."
more to come........

day post

here are some shots that i took throughout the day yesterday. the ones i took at nina's were incognito. i was just having fun shooting the world around me. i'm trying to get bolder with my camera. taking it out and taking pictures of people that i have not talked to. i'm also not trying to capture one person but the entire atmosphere of the space that i am observing.
the shots of my dog were just a fun thing that i did last night. she is so beautiful and fun to play with. she is wicked smart and when she looks at you she just wants to get to know you. her name is Guin.

morning snow

i got up early today! that never happens. i got to school an hour before class! that never happens. i took that extra time to shoot a few for my daily post. this was just outside. the snow was still falling and it was cold but i stuck it out and i think i got a good shot. the snow looks like powdered sugar, and the bench is soaking it in.
