New Design

At least for the time being. I’ve had the same one for most of the last decade, and it’s been really hard to find something new that fits what I’ve always had in mind to make. Here is a banner I made to use, but not sure I’ll end up using it at all. I’m going to be spending a lot of time figuring things out. But for now, this is what I shall be using. Who knows how long that will be for.

New Chances to Win

Looks like the Monopoly game is back if you shop at stores like Vons. It’s clearly a much smaller play board this time, which I like because this can give a better chance in winning something. And there will likely be less clean up after the contest time runs out. Wish me luck.

Sandpiper

Old photo while at the beach with some friends. Since winter is almost over I probably should make some time to head over to one of the more tide pool areas because you do see some really need stuff. And it’s ben awhile since I’ve done that.

I should get some stuff to help keep me warm to because california ocean water is really cold.

Cast and Crew

Another photo from when I was there for Bill and Ted Face the Music. This time it’s a shot of the crew, and Alex. Just wish I was closer to the stage then I could have gotten more, instead of forcing myself to zoom in, because that never comes out well.

Not Forgotten

Ten years, and two days ago, a guy that I knew back when I was a kid had died. I pretty much just knew him in high school and we did have some classes together. Maybe 2 or 3. What I remember most if is one day he brought his guitar and amp to health class. Can’t remember why exactly but thought it was pretty cool.

I found out Mark died, I saw a page on facebook about him and thought it was some weird fan page. Looked into it more and realized what had happened, and felt really bad. So two days ago I visited his site with a friend. Felt like I needed to get this to show how nice a place he is at looks. That and for anyone else that wants to visit they have some idea of what to look for near by. Figured I could be helpful.

Is This Fraud?

I got an email from someone who runs the instagram page, talking about how they like my work and wish to share one of my photos on their page. By doing so they will help bring engagement to my page and will get a number of new followers and such.

Of course I was smelling a scam from the very start and then I saw this line. “I will send you a price list and more information there” which confirmed my doubts. Here is the thing, I don’t proclaim myself as insanely brilliant, and I know people way smarter than me fall for this kind of stuff all the time. The trick is to know the warning signs.

Red Wings

I had to goto Malibu shorty the other day. While there I came across these black birds, which is nothing much new, other than the fact they had red and orange feathers on their wings. Sure I’ve seen something like it before but I was still fascinated. Just wish I had my SLR on me, because it would have been a nicer shot.

Maybe this is a sign that I should bring it with me more often. This also reminds me about how I need a new, better lens for the camera too.

Bypassed?

I’ve been getting a lot of spam for the past couple weeks that’s been getting by the filter. But, in order for the comment to show I have to approve it first. Thought I’ve been getting noticeable less in the last few days so that does help me a lot for any real comment pop up. Maybe it was just a fluke.

Kid Cudi

Along with the photo before, and a few others that I didn’t like as much. I also got some video from that day while on set for Bill and Ted Face the Music. Because the director did say it was ok, and it’s still weird to me since i’m not used to that while on set. I’m also amazing how short of a day that was too because the shorts about of time I’ve been on something I believe was about 6 hours and was for Mind Hunter. Longest, 14 and for SWAT.

At The Ballot

Old photo from when I was in Moorpark. This was from a primary election, I would say over 10 years ago. Since this is also an election year, and california primaries are coming up I figure I should have an appropriate shot some place.
