… more to come

I’m planning on making a roadtrip up to norcal this winter before winter session at pcc starts. Then, sometime I would like to make a drive up to Alaska and explore my heart out. The trip will be made by car and I will be making preparations months ahead of time.

props…

1: no, waste of 10 billion dollars - give it to me instead and i’ll fly all of you guys first class from LA to SF

2: no, this is just stupid and comes from the idiots at PETA

3: yes, improving children’s hospitals is a good spend of money

4: yes, abortions are for squares

5: no, keep crime offenders off the streets…

6: yes, anti-crime

7: yes, cleaner earth

8: YES, i don’t want to see gay guys making out on every corner, because:
a) it’s disgusting, parents should shield that from their children (99% of gays are not parents)
and
b) yes, they will be displaying affection everywhere in public, including, in front you in a line, next to you on a bus, and surrounding you at the urinals…

9: yes, keep criminals in prison

10: no, this is a business backed proposition by a texas oilman who’s company sells natural gas

11: no

12: yes, benefits our veterans… why not?

… and that’s how an intelligent person would vote on the california propositions

So a couple months ago, I went up to the Hollywood sign with Phil and Nate. We took some private little roads to get basically to the base of the sign. You can’t get any closer than we did. I took some pictures but they came out crappy. Well, the other day, I took Jazmin up there and tried my hand at pics again. I still fucked up, (could have used higher ISO setting), but here they are anyways. I’m going be purchasing a 580EX flash pretty soon.

Keep in mind that these pics were taken at like 3-4 AM when it was literally pitch black outside. Autofocus was out of the question. Manual focus was impossible to get it perfect (couldn’t see anything through the lens).

30 second exposure on this one…

80 years! And still with the soul of a teen. I love you.

Shot steve’s MR EM1, Eddie’s MR EM1, and Nelson’s black ES2 up on Angeles Crest the other day…

Here is a taste of the 87 pics from the shoot. Check my flickr for the full set.

As some of you know, I recently picked up a 2006 Mazda RX-8. It is in Phantom Blue Mica, and has 31k miles, is fully loaded with satellite navigation, mazda’s advanced keyless entry and ignition, heated leather seats, and the GT package. It has a 5 year, 48k mile bumper to bumper warranty and a 100k mile powertrain warranty. Aside from the horrible fuel consumption (15 mpg) and lack of torque, I really have no complaints.

I already had the fenders rolled, pulled, and flared to the max on all four corners.

The color really is beautiful and I have many plans for it, so stay tuned.

Met Eddie and shot his 1999 Milano Red Honda Civic SI, slammed on 15×8 +18 Enkei 92’s.

Here is just a taste of the 50 photos from the shoot.

I took Jazmin to Catalina Island on August 31st. That day was a lot of fun even though we missed our ferry twice. I think we got there at like 4-ish, walked around, played mini golf, and ate at a Chinese restaurant and Cold Stone’s.
