first of all, thank you for sending this guy, albeit very briefly, to explore. i havent made it in there in awhile, so that feels nice. its always those shots that you never think will come near getting any views or comments that are the runaway favorites.

oh you just gotta...

a very special thank you to all the men and women, home and abroad, that risk their lives everyday for the freedom that we often take for granted. without you, this wouldnt be the country we all love.

i cant believe it took 272 photos to do a selective color shot. i would have thought my ideas would have dried up after like the first week, and i would have done a ton of these.

Happy Birthday America, Happy Independence Day everyone.

Athens, GA

coming from the north to the deep south im still getting used to how prevalent trains are here. in the north, when you say train, most people think commuter trains, but down here, railroad tracks criss cross all over town carrying all the essential things that keep america's proverbial wheels turning. This is an abandoned section of track and i think is pretty fucking cool, and i know ill be back at for more shots.

in other news. remember the hell on earth show i did last week. well the "theatre company" if you can call them that complained about how their show went, and now they won't schedule us for work until there are some meeting to sort out what happened. it makes me angry that a group of unprofessional, uncourteous, rude, and frankly clueless people can affect us hard working technicians from getting work and a paycheck. as a freelancer, i live paycheck to paycheck a lot, so getting work scheduled is a big deal for me. im sure it will be sorted out in the next couple days, but its the principal, you know?

finally. (whew) the sky in this comes from another one of my shots i took during this shoot... i had my F-Stop wrong on this particular one, so thank you photoshop.

can ya see me up there?

big big big big big........................................................ big.

shannon was all too eager to help me with today's shot. i wonder why? hint: shes not behind the camera.

anyway.. it was another scorcher today. we are watching another dog this week and she decided that she'd make a break for it today. i ran around the entire neighborhood at full sprint for about 30 min chasing her.

SOOC.

i had a long day.

i got up at 5:45am and drove into work... rush hour in atlanta... so i arrived at about 7:45. at 9am i developed a migraine. as i type this, i still have it, at 12:16am, saturday.

to make things better, the company that was mounting the play tonight was extremely unprofessional, rude, and clueless on how a show is produced, mounted, and teched. they made a lot of mistakes that they blamed on us the staff, and it all made for a very frustrating night. all you who follow me on twitter got to read along with some of it.

its all ok tho. tomorrow im going to see the red sox play the braves!!!!! woooooo!!

this doesnt make my hair look longer... just bigger.

theres no way i can hide my head for a couple weeks... so here it is in all its short glory. i went to trim my hair yesterday, and hit a snag, taking waaay to much off a patch in the front... so i had to shave my head to this short. ahhh i hate how i look with short hair.

my interview with the Georgia Ensemble Theatre went really awesome today tho. they talked to me both about doing some design work, and also about a master electrician position for next season... really great, esp since they called me. so, im a happy camper...


this hair feel soooo weird.
