New Camera - Olympus EP-L1 - 5/21

New Olympus EP-L1 is legit! New micro 4/3 technology. No view finder. Very user friendly. I was worried about there being no view finder, but it was really easy to get used to. I actually prefer this style versus the traditional D-SLR. The camera produces real crisp pictures, and comes with lots of fun pre-programmed art filters to keep things interesting (I love the pin hole filter.) You can also set set the aperture manually. It provides you the ease of a point 'n shoot, with the control of a D-SLR. Go get yours you will definitely not be disappointed.

Our new home! 4/08

Our first day at the apartment. Had to break out the Corona's on the balcony. (I know cliche right)
I am so fortunate to be living in such an amazing apartment. The fresh ocean breeze, sunsets, booze, buddies, my girl, and all the perks that come with living in such an amazing place. I got a balcony that over looks the ocean...damn! Life is good.

Melrose ave - photo/skate sesh 4/08

I saw an article on http://obeygiant.com/ of this mural on Baracuda LA. I decided to go check it out.
I was skating by when I saw this piece of the Seventh Letter. I took some pics, met Kellen and the rest is history in the making.
I couldn't believe it when I saw Shepard Fairey. He was posing for a photo right in front of the piece I came to see. So of course I stopped, and said what up.
Me and Shepard. He is definitely one of my inspirations. He even hooked it up with some stick's! Couldn't get any better.
