New Toys

So I got two new toys (I mean tools) in the mail yesterday. I'm so excited to be using them for things coming up in the future! I got a 35mm f1.4, and a 85mm f1.8. After literally seeing the light from fellow photographer Mark Kuroda's insights on using prime lenses, I'm glad to be jumping on board.
Mark took this pic of me with the 85mm.

Cold and Rainy

It has not only been cold here lately, but it has been raining kind of a lot the last few days. I'm not going to lie, but there is something that I really enjoy about stormy weather and walking around with an umbrella.
These shots were taken right outside of my house.

I have a blog!

After reading my friends' blogs all the time, I realized that it is such a cool way for people to see what's going on. I made it my New Year's resolution to jump on board to the blog train. If nothing else, it will be a cool way for me to remember all of the good times and adventures that are constantly happening. So if you're reading this, thanks, and I'll try and keep it interesting...
