                <description><![CDATA[ Alright so I don't want to sound like a newb but this wacom tablet is amazing. In just a day my abilities with photoshop have seen some awesome progress. I think it has to do with the interface. Its so simple to use. I dont even need my mouse anymore! The one draw back is that when I lay on my bed and kick back to draw I cant reach my keyboard to type... Actually I was thinking about all the awesome applications this tablet has. I can't wait to use this with a few big screen LCDs... I am addicted <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />. Hopefully I will get finished with some manipulations I am doing... and I can post them. Anyways... enough of that. You will see my deviousness soon enough... wahaha<br /><br /> ]]></description>

So to prepare for it I have been messing around more with digital painting... all crap sketches, but I can only imagine what I will do when I get that tablet.... hopefully have alot of fun <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I have noticed that I broke the ten thousand pageview marker, and I was sitting here debating on what this meant to me exactly. I have come to the conclusion that my pageviews are meaningless. While I have more than some... I know plenty of artists that make ten thousand pageviews in a single day. Nevertheless It is a nice number... but I am eager to find a day when I make a image that is seen on that scale in one day. Basically I am wondering what kind of image it is going to be. <br />  On another note... I dropped the CSS journal. I wish I knew how to make those things because the one I was using was crap.. it didnt fit my style of photography. One of these days I need to sit down and really look over how to make one of my own, but then again I am more taken with the idea of learning digital painting or get more involved with photo-manipulation. <br />  I am still in Japan but I am starting to wonder if I am going to get a job out here. I think that I will be going back to my ship in Hawaii on the 26th. I can't say I am upset about it, because by the time I am done I will have seen most of Tokyo. Also I can say that I am comfortable with wandering this place. In the end this trip is going to be my rebirth. I wonder where I will set my eyes on next. I am actually eager to get away from civilization altogether. Find a village in a remote location. Maybe Tibet? Or maybe I will go and live with some tribe in the amazon? I don't really know. Of course if something comes up here where I can stay for the rest of my life I will take that opportunity in a heartbeat, but I don't feel like my destiny is going to allow me to stay anywhere. My eyes drive me... and they always thirst for new colors gracing the surface of new horizons.  Anyways... enough rambling. Time to sleep.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I am now in Japan watching the sun come up. Its been awhile since I have posted a update on my page. So here it is! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> I have been here for only a day and I feel like I am not going to leave. Last night I went shopping for groceries and my girlfriend said I fit walking around town. I have to agree with her. I feel like traveling large distances is no big deal anymore. Eventhough everything I know is all the way around the world... all I can think about is knowing alot about this place. Soon you will see lots of pictures. Right now I am still getting over the jet lag<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Now we have returned to our regular scheuduled programming. Serving tables. Making laughter. Selling dreams. BUT only when making cash! I need as much money as possible to go to Japan. I only have three months to make money before I will be jobless in a foreign country and without a work visa. But I can't imagine a situation where a American would be a illegal immigrant in another country. If anyone is out in Japan as a photographer and needs a apprentice. SPONSOR me so I can get a Visa. That way I can stay with my girlfriend without having to leave the country to obtain new entry visa status. Anyways. I thought I would post some more thumbs on my journal and vent my mind for a moment. <br /> In other news... I self published a book of my photography. Only one print in circulation! Its currently in route to my ship so I can print check it before sending it to my girlfriend for her birthday. After I print check it I will include a link in my journal if anyone is intrested in getting a copy. Anyways... enough of all that. I have wandering to do.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Also I am testing out the CSS journal I found <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> So I came back to the ship two weeks ago. I was thinking that it was a bad idea for me to return, but last week I met someone that I had met on board seven months ago. A Japanese translator for a big group of Japanese tourists. When I met her seven months ago she was flirty with me and wanted to go out for a drink but it never happened because of my schedule. Last week she pursued me even more and we went out to lunch twice that week. I hit it off with this girl I barely know from another country. I havent had a feeling of destiny like this since I came out to the ship in the first place. Her name is Natsuko and she is now in Australia for another tour with japanese tourists, but she wants to be with me and has asked me to come to Japan to be with her, And I am going. August 1st  I will be in a totally different country learning to survive, and the difficulty of the task only makes me more excited. I have three months to go before I am done with this ship for good and I get to go to a new country to see about a girl that I have strong feelings for. I will update at a later date. Also our ship is pulled into pearl harbor dry dock for three weeks. No passengers! Which is awesome... Well I am out of here for now... talk to you all later<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So here I am after a day of chasing the sun by climbing up a volcano in a rental car. Currently I sit at Safeway in Lahaina waiting for some friends to return. I might find myself on the road again but I'm not sure if I will get anymore pictures of the island today. When I have my USB cable for my camera I should be posting some pictures from 10,000 feet. Where the sky is below the land and the clouds look like waves on the ocean crashing against the trees. My signal is weak but I cant complain about free signal now can I ? anyways its cutting this journal short. Then again... I'm not really good with journals.<br /><br />"Sic gorgiamus subjectatos allos nunc. "<br />

But before I go back I'm going to Europe for a quick trip around The Netherlands, France, Germany, and Italy. I don't really have a plan for said trip but I have a rail pass for the five countries and I have a Hostel for three days in Amsterdam. Thats for certain. I'm thinking I want to visit Paris, Venice, Rome and Munich if I can. Any  suggestions people ? Well if anyone from europe watches my page and has any local tips that would be awesome! adios for now<br /><br />"Sic gorgiamus subjectatos allos nunc. "<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm heading out to my ship again for another five months. The time for sleep is over.. its time to work work work. For goals goals goals. I'm planning on going over the sea very soon. So I can say I'm a world traveler at least once. If my plans take off I will be around the globe several times over. Anyways. Right now my fate is like a seedling. And I am watering it with nothing more than my will and imagination. I'm hoping neither falters because this is my world and I cant go letting it pass me by the wayside. And with that in mind. I'm picking up my feet again. With about a grand in pocket. The ship is heading back to home port and I will see her soon. The wanderer wanders again and its come to my attention now more than ever. That there is never a solid home where I rest my head. The ship rocks on water as it passes from place to place. Only now and then will I settle in this place of the blue grass and horses. I have a hazy plan of what lands I will head to next and just letting my mind touch on the borders of those hazy plans is making a grin spread across my face and my eyes lift from the feet in front of me only to settle on the hill ahead.<br /><br />"Sic gorgiamus subjectatos allos nunc.

                <description><![CDATA[ So my five month assignment on the ship ended on march 17th. I dont return to the ship until april 11th. I flew out of honolulu on the 19th and arrived in lexington kentucky on the 20th. The very next day I flew out with my friend zack to Rhode Island. We leave for New York in two days. I plan on getting alot of pictures. <br />
<br />
       On another note I've come to realize I really have a problem with updating journals and actually having some amazing thing to say with amazing cool CSS journals or whatever thats all about. But I've got some pictures to stand up for my journey.<br />
<br />
 Anyways we are taking the train into New York. Its a three hour train ride.I think we leave at like nine or ten in the morning. We will be in New York until three AM. I cant wait to get pictures of Penn station and the empire state building. We are hoping to go to china town. Which I think is a really good idea. Alot of terrain to pass over.. Ill keep you posted with images<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I was staring at my page and realized that I havent dropped anything new in this box for a long time. So my first assignment on the ship is almost done. Five more weeks till freedom. I bought a Nikon D80! Its a kickass camera <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nod.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" /> I'm loving the black and white feature. Which is a mundane feature to go on and on about but hey... its cool. I've got so much new photography but ive really been slacking off and not posting anything of the islands. To be honest alot of the landscape photos dont look good to me. Landscapes are difficult for me I guess. Well anyways I'll talk to ya later people!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ No longer in Piney Point. I flew into Hawaii yesterday and boarded my ship. Today I worked upstairs in the resteraunt. This is going to be a crazy job no doubt! We left Honollulu and Hilo. Now we are heading to Maui for our overnight port of call. Hopefully I will update this page enough to keep you guys informed of whats going on! Although the internet is kinda expensive ( $20 dollars for 2 hours !). I appreciate all the comments and favorites. If I dont respond to you all I apologize <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nod.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" /> adios for now people !<br /><br /> ]]></description>

CLICK THE  GALLERY TAB AND THEN SET THE SEARCH TO SHOW 120 DEVIATIONS**<br /><br />I have arrived at destination one of two. Currently setting up house in a renovated hotel on the coast guard base right on Chesapeak Bay called Piney Point.  I wasnt prepared for the arrival. When I got to Baltimore I was expecting that I would be the only one flying in but I quickly found out that wasnt the case. I was one of two hundred that got on the bus to drive here from the airport. This place is a full hotel filled with three people per room of employees training to move to Hawaii. It seems like there are alot of cool people here but this is only my first day. I've met several people that have been in the program for a week now and they say its pretty easy for junior waiters like me. I've got wireless internet too which is awesome. I plan on posting some pictures of the sailboats in the bay when I learn more about the light during various parts of the day. Anyways thats the update. More to come later!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.break.com/index/evil_state_of_union.html">[link]</a> ]]></description>

CLICK THE  GALLERY TAB AND THEN SET THE SEARCH TO SHOW 120 DEVIATIONS**<br /><br />Alright so birthday came and went and I now have a laptop for my journey. Lately I've been checking out these cool CSS journals and was wondering if someone could help me out with one since I lack the uber cool kid skills like all these awesome deviants. Someone help me out... so I can be a uber cool kid deviant too! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> anyways... I'm now kinda nervous about my trip. Not because its a big move for me or anything. I've been around the country so many times now that it isnt the distance that is bothering me. I guess its just the unknown. Or what if I suck at the job and get fired. I have no money to fly my ass back to the mainland if that happens. I would be trapped in Hawaii with alot of cool kid technology like my laptop computer and ipod. What would I do with those if I was marooned on a island <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> other than that thought I'm pretty hyped about all of this. I leave at 5:30 in the morning on monday which is gonna suck. I hate getting up that early. Anyways if someone out there could help me out with that CSS business it would be very very cool... I will talk to you all soon enough!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.break.com/index/evil_state_of_union.html">[link]</a> ]]></description>

CLICK THE  GALLERY TAB AND THEN SET THE SEARCH TO SHOW 120 DEVIATIONS**<br /><br />So I know when I'm going on my new journey. On october 9th I will board a plane and fly to Maryland for training. I will be there three weeks then I will fly directly to Honollulu. This is going to be so kick ass! Only problem is everyone might not hear from me for awhile since I'm unsure on the status of my computer access as I'm moving around. That is if I'm being watched hehe... strange to think there are watchers out there. Hopefully you can see where I am going and what things I insist on projecting myself into. I'm hoping I get a laptop for my birthday which is on the 2nd of october. That way I can try and update as much as possible. Although I hardly update my journal. And not very many people read journals anyways. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shrug.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":shrug:" title="Shrug" /> well anyways I'm going to get back to writing. Adios people! see you in the ether.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.break.com/index/evil_state_of_union.html">[link]</a> ]]></description>

The filming technique as well as the actor that had to master the movements. And then of course there is the perfectly balanced stones. Good music too. Check this out. You wont be dissappointed. Unless your my mom... who had no idea what was going on. Eventhough it was right there on the screen.<br />

CLICK THE  GALLERY TAB AND THEN SET THE SEARCH TO SHOW 120 DEVIATIONS**<br /><br />Although this may be alittle premature I figure I would drop it in a journal cause I'm really excited. So less than a week ago I walked out of my job never to return. I wasnt to sure what I was going to do but less than a week has gone by and now I have a better job lined up. I just got hired as a waiter on a cruise ship and in six weeks I will be in Hawaii. Well first to Maryland for coast guard training. Then I will be on a huge ship in Hawaii. I should have known my wanderlust would get the best of me eventually. I had a pretty good go of Lexington. I lived here for five years which is the longest ive lived anywhere. I wonder where the tide will bring me next. I will update you all as the time approaches. Craziness.... is all I can say!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I have noticed a few and I'm not sure if its just me. In the submit deviations tab there isnt a spot for poetry or prose. Also when you view written deviations it cuts off part of the writing. Has anyone noticed this same issue or is it a problem with my page ?<br /><br />my rant... random synapses firing from the ether. ]]></description>

THE FAVORITES ARE NOT MY WORK. CLICK THE DEVIATION GALLERY TAB AND THEN SET THE SEARCH TO SHOW 120 DEVIATIONS**<br /><br />I find that sometimes my balance gets threatened by the world. I imagine this is so for everyone but here I am pondering my own rise and fall. I cant seem to find my equilibrium on anything relating to life. The only thing I can convince myself of is that I insist on carrying my camera only so that I can capture this fleeting world as it passes me by. It is the only constant thought that aides me in capturing this ever changing world. My conscious is littered with a constant struggle against itself. Not knowing where I am going and not to sure how my feet find their footing, but here I am going along a road that no one knows. Somehow I am up and down watching the rise and the fall of the day to day play. The one thing I know about this up and down motion that my self makes is that now that I'm swinging down as the momentum comes back around I have to find a way to push through the roof of possibility. At some point the only thing I have going for me is this deep seeded "energy" that I feel. Its itching under the surface and I cant seem to find a way to boil it over and manifest it fully. I'm not even to sure what it is I am experiencing. Everytime I get to this point I feel this overwhelming urge to take a backpack and my camera and never come back. Alot like that one kid Eric Mclandless I think his name was. He graduated college and donated all his money and went off into the wilderness. In the end I am the witness. Everytime I get close to the bottom I realize I am only this. The eyes that are aware of the times. Its seems its time to take a step off the stage of life and just witness where the tide brings me. I am so close yet so far from letting it go. When the day comes only I will know..<br /><br />my rant... random synapses firing from the ether. ]]></description>

I've been preparing for a sidewalk art sale and a gallery showing this month. I have printed up several of samples of my work. A few horse pictures and the blue waterfall as well as "hiding from christ" and the old doorway. Hopefully I make some money this week. Also I will be printing up one of my nudes to go on display in a few months. If anyone has a opinion on which one I should print from my gallery I would love to hear your opinion on the matter. Thanks for stopping by everyone. I will see you in the ether. Adios<br /><br /> ]]></description>

The Earth God pictures really jump out at me for some reason. It's amazing what still water will show you. I plan on going back into this hole in the earth again this week maybe I will find something new to shoot. I hope you all enjoy the new work... adios..<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ My application was denied because I wont be able to put enough time into being at the studio during regular operating hours. I should be irritated but I'm not since I decided I didnt want the space anyways, but getting a decline is a sharp knife in the side. I would have prefered being accepted so I could decline them... my ego would have loved that. Now I think I will set my attention on something else. Like buying a house and making my own studio <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shakefist.gif" width="24" height="18" alt=":shakefist:" title="CURSE YOU!" /> damn you museum! On the bright side I think the only reason why I was declined had to do with the fact I would only be working in my studio late at night since I work full time. In the meantime I'm going to find a new place to shoot and pursue finding some models for my nude work or fashion/fetish depending on what sort of models I find. Well I'm off until I find a reason to drop another journal entry. Adios friends and watchers. I will be back around soon enough <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nod.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I'm unloading alot of pictures to make up for lost time. Some are from when I was shooting film. The others are shot with my D50. Since I havent been shooting any new nude work I decided to go with horses nature and achitecture. These are their own forms of beauty. On a side note I still havent heard back on the studio space. Its in limbo I guess and now that I've been forced to sit and wait I'm starting to think that I might want to wait a year before I try and find a studio space. Its definatly on my mind but I'm not sure I want to take the risk with no way out. It would be alot of money to maintain ya know ? anyways enjoy the new flood of pictures. I just hope I get back into the swing of working with people because I love to collaborate. Well I'm going to step off now. Say hello people... because it only takes a second... and I'm just a fleeting glimps <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/ninja.gif" width="19" height="19" alt=":ninja:" title="Ninja" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I submitted my application for the studio space in the louden house museum here in lexington. Hopefully I get in because that would be cool. I need that space bad so I can construct my props for my upcoming project. All I need is space. So if I get in thats what I will be doing. I'm planning on messing around with some futuristic war scenes and what not. Alittle green screen work perhaps? Any models that are into alternative fashion that would be intrested in working with me let me know. I am trying my best to get all the puzzle pieces together. I should know more in the next few weeks <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nod.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

I will be uploading some more tonight. Also in other news I plan on renting a studio space for the next year. I have five more days before the application is due so I need to get off my ass and do it. I'm awake and ready to spout out a bunch of new stuff. In the past few months I have grabbed a bunch of worthy shots. Hopefully you all will enjoy them when I get them up here. Until then have a great day and good shooting! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wave.gif" width="25" height="20" alt=":wave:" title="Hi!" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ go here <a href="http://justthorne.deviantart.com/journal/">[link]</a> ive been reading his journals about the submission agreement. Draw your own conclusions. If you havent seen this you need to go into detail if you value your own art <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nod.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" /><br /><br />After reading the submission agreement and the fears of others I have decided I wont be submitting anymore deviations until I see a change. I already have a year subscription so i can wait it out for abit. I'm not sure at this point if I will be removing my work, but then again I'm not to sure it would make a difference at this point. Anyways. Im just passing the buck... look into this stuff. Its important.... when things get resolved I will post again... but somehow I feel things wont be getting better anytime soon <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nod.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" /> adios everyone.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Disclaimer: By slackathon I by no means mean to say that you will be slackers in participating. The slacker title indicates me in my critical <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/weed.gif" width="20" height="19" alt=":weed:" title="This is your brain; This is drugs; This is your brain on drugs!" /> state.<br /><br />So I was staring at my screen today and noticed the lack of avatar action. I pondered this and remembered a time when I first came here in october that I tried to make a Avatar. It didnt work out and I abandoned the idea and decided to brood on it and try and come up with something to put in that default DA space that is my icon. I've seen some pretty cool ones and found that so many more people no whats up with avatars. My proposal is this... now this is the <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/weed.gif" width="20" height="19" alt=":weed:" title="This is your brain; This is drugs; This is your brain on drugs!" /> that has taken up my slacker position on this. I want to hold a contest where anyone thats intrested sends me a submission for a avatar. The only thing I can think of as a reward would be that whatever artist wins.  I will go into their prints and choose one to buy for a space on my wall. Well there it is... make me a uber cool avatar because I'm a slacker and you will win a sense of accomplishment for filling my room with your art. Your own home cant be a gallery for your art I have found. So win acclaim in my apartment today make me a avatar since I need to fill some spaces in my place. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/matteo.gif" width="30" height="25" alt=":matteo:" title="matteo (deviantART Co-Founder)" /><br /><br />Reclaimer: This is the section where my higher conscience looks over the paragraph and kicks me in the ass and says try and make one yourself. Then my lower slacker conscience says " but then I wont be able to make up my mind on a print for my wall" and the arguement continues... until my hands guide my action to the "add" button... and AWAY WE GO into the net hehehe ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I am a slacker ass. Although I could argue the model opportunities I thought i had were all pointless endeavors. They were all flakes. They all say " oh i would love to pose" of course they love the idea of some spare cash. They get all excited and then I hear crickets. On top of that I need a key for photoshop again. I've got a ton of pictures I could post if only I could resize them <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> Basically this journal is to let myself know I'm still alive in this community. I've been sending alot of comments and faves. When I cant appreciate what I'm doing I can always appreciate others <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nod.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":nod:" title="Nod" /> Talk to you all later. Have a great day!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So i had another lucid dream last night. It involved some flying and floating and what not. I love it when it hits you that your dreaming. It always takes a ridiculous situation to make you realize your dreaming. The fact that I was flying announced it to me. Unfortunatly it didnt last long like some of the other times. This one time I had a lucid dream I met a friend from when I was a child and we were talking in her front lawn but I got distracted by something behind her and when I looked to see what it was it was three giant purple bunny rabbits with wings. I started laughing my ass off when I realized I was dreaming and then I looked at my friend and said " isnt it funny we meet in dreams when you could be on the otherside of the world sleeping right now?" and she looked at me totally clueless and said " what do you mean " and i said " nothing, talk to you later " she says " where are you going..." my response " to see what my imagination looks like up close " but as i walked away all the color melted out of everything and it became like a greyscale photograph and then everything in the dream world crumbled like a wall made out of puzzle pieces. good stuff... anyways im off...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ The other night was another journey into destiny possibly. I went to this girl's party last night. I dont know her really well but one night I was walking downtown and she was sitting shotgun in her boyfriends truck and she yelled some cat calls at me. " Hey baby! ". I didnt realize who it was at the time but I yelled back " you cant afford me baby... im high class merchadise" while rubbing my chest and parading across the crosswalk looking like a doofus. Anyways I got to know her alittle better last night. Apparently she dealt art for awhile and is really intrested in seeing my work. She also said she would pose for me and knows at least three friends that would do so as well.. If its for real I should be building a insane library of work. I want to share a vision with the world, and it can never be cliche because its 100% mine. This is only month three on DA. I was looking over my old work from four years ago and looked at my failed pictures and look at where I'm at now. It is amazing I think. I'm ready to jump forward by leaps and bounds. Lets see what happens though, but I just cant stop laughing because life is so priceless it doesnt matter what comes my way. I'm going to take it my way and spit it back out. If my progression continues at the same pace I want to take my dreams and display them for you all. Right now I'm just observing the world presented to me. Taking my meetings and manipulating them into possibilities. The day I know I've mastered my art is when I produce a true photograph from my dreams, and I convey to you all a grand possibility you never thought to ponder.<br /><br />The countdown to Photoshop requiring validation is like 5 days, and then my frusteration will be renewed <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> Have a great day everyone. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I went over to a co-workers place last night and i brought my camera out eventhough usually when i go to parties i dont shoot much. Its more of a conversation piece really when i go out. Although that night I found playing with fire was well worth it. Everyone found the pictures amazing. I think its a great effect as well. None of the shots were photoshoped. All I did to get the " devil materializes" shot was i changed the white balance to incandecent i think. I made the fire more wispy. I took 150 pictures in all. I'm not sure how many more will be posted. I hope you all enjoy. Have a great day!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So lately ive been contemplating the fact that I need better lighting if im going to continue doing my work at my apartment. The winter months also push me toward thinking about this more since I dont think I could handle the outdoors in the cold <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> . Basically I need some advice on some good lighting equipment that wont break my back as far as expense. I'm also looking into getting some backdrops as well. If you guys have some advice on what I should get I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction. Include a link to the equipment if it isnt to much trouble. That would be great. Have a great day everyone.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Maybe im looking to deeply, but I'm wondering if it really is a message saying I shouldnt take erotic photography of strippers for money. What is your take ? hmmm ?<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I keep getting drawn to this building that is getting renovated. I love to explore decay because you always find amazing relics that catch your eye and make you wonder about things. In the attic of one section of  the motel there is a pile of old magazines from sixty years ago. That might not seem like long for some but i wasnt even born then. It amazes me. The best part about finding old buildings is that you have amazing readily available settings. The source light wasnt so good, but i still think I grabbed the mood. The best part about the shoots at the motel was the weather. Two great days of fall weather in late November. I dont like to think about how weird that must be. I dont know where im going next folks...stay tuned...<br /><br />Buy The "Atmosphere" CD " you cant imagine how much fun we are having" buy it... if you like underground hip hop with a great vibe and lyrics then dont think and act now <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I would like to start off and say I have to wonder just how many people are seeing these words? On another note I am just taking a breath and willing my future forward eventhough right now I'm just floundering in a rowboat with no paddles. I may not know where im going but my destination is waiting at the finish line knowing full well when the moment is going to be when it shakes my hand and welcomes me home. Here I come, but I'm still breathing and watching. I'm doing my thing against all other people's "better" judgement. Moving along kicking the pebbles of my own path. I may look over at you and realize you are moving parallel, but some are running in a sprint looking at their watches and others are collapsed on the wayside crying today because of the things in their lives that leave too soon. My work is slowing down because I'm waiting to exhale genius or craziness. Perhaps just hot air emptiness or maybe its taken as common sense worth less than a glance. I can only do as I am going to do. Here I come but I dont know if anyone greets me as a true friend. My mind is upside down and my feet want to find the feel of gravity on the ceiling. Its totally unnatural when your running along the line of normal. Where are you going? Running off on a tagent so far from what I can fathom? All our tears fall on the same ground. I just hope that you can see your reflection in their depths so that you may brighten your day. The sky isnt cloudy even as I try and see the moon through the grey. I'm trying to maintain myself, but I get lost on a different line every time I stop to think. I am left behind wondering what has come to pass to put me right in the shoes im in right now. I am off to head into my days. For the hundreds that look at my pictures even if you dont get to this line. Go well through your days, or your day whichever you are blessed. Whichever way its destined realize your blessed. Never lose sight of your unknown destination. Follow your heart and dont let trivial worldly things hold you back. Go for a feeling that you can accomplish anything. We can all be godly if we drop our selves to the wonder of absolute belief in our souls. Move the mountains of your troubles far from where you stand. Clear the path and walk it. Goodbye. I died. I will be back when I write another journal or post a picture.<br /><br />Buy The "Atmosphere" CD " you cant imagine how much fun we are having" buy it... if you like underground hip hop with a great vibe and lyrics then dont think and act now <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> ]]></description>

Its all good though at least I can satisfy my urge for posting my pictures. Here are some from the past few weeks. I have to work on some nude shots and then I will post them in a new series. I hope my work continues to be enjoyable for you all. If not at least have a good day and enjoy life.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I met Amber through a friend from work. She needs some spare cash and was more than excited about posing nude. We were both nervous but she got over it soon enough and wants to pose again. I figure she will be around again, but at the same time I wouldnt mind finding more models. The world should be my model for beauty. I need as many willing charismatic people as I can get. Thanks for the visit everyone. Have a great day!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ " The right art," cried the master, " is purposeless, aimless! The more obstinately you try to learn how to shoot the arrow for the sake of hitting the goal, the less you will succeed... What stands in your way is that you have a much too willful will. You think that what you do not do yourself does not happen."..." What must I do, then?" I asked thoughtfully. " you must learn to wait properly." "And how does one learn that?" " By letting go of yourself, leaving yourself and everything yours behind you so decisively that nothing more is left of you but a purposeless tension."<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
  This is a really great qoute I think. I imagine if we could take this truly to heart there would be nothing in this world standing between us and greatness. If we cast all our worries aside and realized that all of life is a play. Its script is written effortlessly but it doesnt write itself entirely based around what we want. Then maybe we could all live alittle better with eachother. If harmony cant be established. The world will crumble to chaos until the time is right for new order. Everything in life crumbles. Even how we view our selves crumbles to something new. Tension is the moment when the cycle reaches its climax only to begin again. Turmoil is what mixes up the situation of life so that we can see the things before us again. Right now many of us are hidden behind our soul's blinders. We walk along in files. Many of us pick up our rifles. The majority of us live in a cycle of going down the street to our jobs to sit and accumulate so that we may live, but is this truly life? Is there more down the unknown road?The road that is so unfathomable that few have the courage to even imagine it ? The road that goes to the eternal and the infinite. The road that casts aside everything that you are. Where on the other side of the haze of the unknown a clarity awaits that is so vibrant it casts light on every shadow of uncertainty everywhere you look. The second you imagine a road like this and try and walk it you will find that your self will scream at you and say " you cant do that! thats crazy! " it yells for you to stop because it cant comprehend soul. The soul will not bend before the self if the self has a voice of a child demanding to be satisfied.<br /><br />Anyways. I went off on a tangent. I just like to sit and type away the time sometimes. Talk to you all later ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Another look at the female form. I also did some fetish photography but I'm not sure if it will be posted<br /><br />Well this time around I was prepared for another shoot. I'm still practicing however. I took about sixty pictures but I decided that these were my favorites. I also did some fetish pictures where she was wearing garters and stockings as well as a black corset but the black backdrop didnt work so well so I might scrap those and reshoot later. I think for the time being a simple study of the nude form is enough. When you add racy clothing into the photograph it changes the way you feel about it. I just want a simple perspective of beauty. Although I love fetish I dont think I have the right model for it. Anyways, enjoy the pictures and see you when I see you. Have a great day everyone and enjoy life.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Decided to post some older work from my temple visit and when i got my new camera two weeks ago ? I might even go so far as to dig up pictures from four years ago when I first started taking pictures. I just wanted to keep things moving along after crazy nights. I want to stay as dynamic as possible but at the same time keep grounded. I hope you enjoy the pictures. The week ahead is going to bring even more new intrigue I believe. I'm just along for the ride. Have a great day everyone.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I met up with my ex-girlfriend last night for some coffee. Basically I called her telling her I need her help making some plaster masks since she knows all about plaster casting. After our coffee we came back to my apartment to look at some of my new work from my temple visit. I mentioned I needed a nude model and she offered to pose for me. After laying on my bed fully clothed talking for awhile she decided to get naked and three hours later I was sitting on my first portfolio of nude work. It was well worth it. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Today I found myself wondering. What does it mean to be reflective? A reflection is a mirror image on the water, or a image of yourself in a mirror. The reflection is a reverse truth of yourself. It is only half true. When you sit and reflect you are looking from your observed self or the self you believe yourself to be. The reverse of you is telling you something. Thus reflection brings illumination because it isnt your observed self showing you the truth. It is your true self showing the reflective self something it could never understand by itself. That is why we sit in reflection. We seek to lose our vision of our self so that we may see more clearly the definition of our truth. I am so close yet so far to true illumination. I sit and listen for the still silent voice. It seeks to propel me toward a thunderous conclusion. It is a whisper of my conscience that doesnt sound like me. A strange voice yelling down a unknown hallway in my mind. I hear a vague echo now and then. I tilt my head and grow cold from the fear that absolute truth brings to a mortal mind. Then I cant hear anymore and I go on my way shivering slightly. I know one day I am going to die but my death will bring absolution from my mortal fears. Only then can I truly hear the echo reverberating down the hall. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Today I decided to leave the city and head for the mountains. I live in Lexington and about a hour out of  town there is a Buddhist temple tucked away in the mountains. I posted two pictures today with more to follow. I hope you enjoy. ]]></description>
