Weekend Wait What Weekend

It's Monday!!! This last week - weekend was a very busy one. Filled with great times and long days. Thursday Mariah & I went to the Edgecombs for dinner and so I could take a couple of shots of Elizabeth for them. We had so much fun and the shots of Elizabeth turned out great. Than on Sunday we went to church and it was Faith Factor week so cool and so much fun Brendan ate a cricket heck yea. I think Ryan will have video up from it on the church's website soon when they do you would take a look, I'll try and remember to post when he does. Than that afternoon we went to the park in Adel to meet Mark & Ashley so I could shoot there engagement photos. I haven't taken a look at them yet but will tell you how they look later. It was way different trying to shoot with people together instead of just a kid when all I needed is a great face and some good light for. I will get better at shooting people as I gain more experience. I'm sure that if I were to do it again that I would do it ten times better than before. It was great though we stood around and talked afterwards and had a fun time. I loved it and can't wait to do it again. Well I will post later this week I hope so talk to you than.

The Light

You stand in the dark, why are you there? What is going on that brought you to such a place in the middle of nowhere and why is it so dark here? What is that noise it's all around you, it sounds like something beating a thousand times a second or is it a thousand things beating one time a second that surrounds you. Wait what is that, there is a glimpse of light it's distant but it is there. What is the source of the light everything about it is overwhelming, you must have the light. The light is what you long for, nothing else matters to you but the light. As you try to get to the light your heart beating wild with the love for the light that now has you running faster and faster for nothing, the light is still small and far away to far for you to reach. The sound is overwhelming, you want the light so bad you can taste it on your lips, it's at the end of your finger tips. You try and try but the black moves with you as you try to go to the light. You beat at the dark like it's mulling you. You try to run from it but it stays with you, moves with you. Why can't you get away from it? You just want the light but nothing you do get's you any closer to the light, no matter how hard you try it's out of your reach. You are powerless, nothing you can do will get you to the light. Something no someone grabs you and the ground around is now visible. You can see a path now, it's there and this person is leading you down it towards the light. The light is getting closer it's getting bigger brighter more and more overwhelming. A loud crack and the dark is gone forever behind you. The light is the majestic thing you have ever seen, nothing can compare to the light not silver not gold not any idol. It seeps into you, it runs thru every vain in your body what power what love, you can feel it now. You think to your self, "this had to have been what the person that led me to the light must have felt". You fall to the ground tears dripping down your face soaking the dirt beneath you. You stand up with a new determination, there it is the black you turn to face it's direction led by something new. You start to walk back to it but are now running a deep fast strong desperate run. Into the dark you go thinking, "there are others looking for the light and I must show them the way".

Me & My Stupid Self

So the past couple of day's I have been thinking really really hard on something and think that I have made much progress into the deep of this subject are you ready because here it comes, the point that I have made great leaps & bounds into the deep thoughts of is the second bathroom stall in a men's bathroom. I have gone to the bathroom and have been required to use a bathroom stall almost everyday here are American Equity at or around 9 o'clock in the morning and again sometime in the afternoon. Although afternoon times are more random than the morning bathroom stall visit. In my visits there are a few thing that I have noticed that may prove that the second bathroom stall is more than just a box with a hole for the in particular bathroom stall user. First off I want to make clear that this is only true if you are not a upper management person per say of a corporate company for they have no reason to worry about he person next to them thinking anything "weird" about them, they can fire them on the spot if needed. But for the rest of us here is my thought on the second bathroom stall in the men's bathroom. Because you can't see the person in the stall next to you, you can't know if they are someone important or just some equal but still influential coworker. And for me at least you don't know if there will be certain "noises" that will be exerted during your bathroom stall visit. So what does you/the other person do when the second stall is going/was in use. You either hold it in or wipe and leave. Thus the second bathroom stall is just a switching point for users.

A Great Photo Of Jamie Lidell


This is a great photo that is on the Apple website, a article they wrote about him. I just thought it was really good the article wrote about how he is way different on stage than he is off.
