Wow, I haven’t had an update here in a while. With the cold weather moving in, it’s hard to find the time and the motivation to do photography. Finishing up with school for the semester and work tend to get in the way as well. The ideas are there; it’s not a lack of creativity or want. Photography is always in the back of my mind, and hopefully soon I will be able to spend more time shooting, and less time just thinking about it.
Here is a link a friend of mine sent me: http://www.pictorymag.com/. It’s a nice showcase of images along with stories that’s very well designed. I love how the photos are displayed, filling the browser window, really giving you a sense of scope and size. You get a feeling of being there, in the scene where the photo was taken.
So, this is a personal website right? It doesn’t have to be all about photography. Another interest of mine is running. It’s not necessarily about being in shape, although that is admittedly a nice side effect. No, for me it’s about pushing myself further and further beyond my own boundaries. That may sound cliché, like some Lance Armstrong quote, or part of a Nike promotion, but it’s true. Getting in to the perfect stride, hearing the breath escape your mouth, and being entirely focused on getting through the next 1000 yards, and the next, and so on. It is both a form of escapism, as well as a way to feel like I’ve accomplished something for the day. This run was mine, it was my effort, and I saw my own path.
Farthest Run: 7.89 Miles
