One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.”
― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
That was exactly how I spent St. Patrick’s Day evening, immersed in art of varying forms. (more…)
A little while ago, I had the opportunity to take the Beast out for his first live music experience and yes, we crashed a Sunny South practice at Zombie Pop Studios. (more…)
Hey there readers. I’m bringing to you something along the lines of special for me. As you may or may not already know, I finally got my hands on the 5d Mark IV and let me tell you that I am absolutely in love.
This is one of my dream cameras. Actually, if I had to choose a camera to be THE favorite, Beast would be it. I’ve been wanting a 5d since I first began looking at DSLRs and it has been a goal of mine to own once since day 1. I still would like to make a formal introduction to you all however I could not wait to get shooting with him. What was even better was that I received him and his lovely lenses just before our local monthly drum circle. While I know what he’s capable of, I wanted to see how I would do.
There’s definitely a learning curve going from a crop sensor Rebel, to a brief run with a crop 7d and now a full frame monster. I can’t wait until I know everything there is to know about him. Enough chit chat though. I want to share with you my first night out with my new love. It was a beautiful and clear night with great vibes as always. As for the shots, I know that I could have done better and the next time I will. Nonetheless, it was an amazing first session and here are my favorite captures of the night.
You know the drill. These are my favorites of the night and there are a few more of what I would consider some “not-so-great” shots on my Facebook page. As always, you are welcome to browse through should you so wish. As for me, it’s time to get to the next adventure. While lately I find myself needing at least two clones though it is by no means a complaint. After all, effort equals rewards and I’m thankful to say that I’m certainly reaping them.
Ah, Churchill’s. The place has been around almost as long as I have and in Miami lately, that’s saying a lot as most of the places we grew up frequenting have been closing. (more…)
Well well, here I am with a slightly bittersweet post. You see, while I do have some items on my backlog yet to edit, this set is a special set. Why you ask?
When you love what you do, it isn’t work. The moment it becomes work, it’s time to call it quits. Luckily that is not the case for me as I grow ever more passionate about my craft with each passing experience and for that I am ever so thankful.
Drums, guitars, cymbals, saxes and yes, even vocal chords. All are instruments as they are instrumental.
I haven’t been editing my eyeballs off, not at all. What can I say, I’ve been shutter happy for quite some time now and I am certainly not complaining.
What do you know, I have a great local brewery near my neighborhood and they host live music. This queen is certainly pleased.
Well, well. It’s finally time for the last and final installment of my weekend with Soulicide. I will admit I put this set off though I had my reasons. (more…)
