Around the hood Part 2

Omg been so long. But I am back and armed with D70 ;p. Quite a lot has happened but ill go over that another time. I bought the camera 2 days ago and just went out on my first shooting mission. Unfortunately because of the lens I bought (50mm 1.8d) and cause I am a noob, I couldnt really take shots of building or big things :(. Ill prolly get a new lens sometime this month that has zoom or something. This is a sequel to Around the hood which was inspired by Michael Flux.

Anyway just remember that I am a noob and dont know how to use this camera :P I also probably need to redesign this blog. Shrinking photos make me sad :(

But anyway, without further ado.

Trucks

So due to the credit crunch a bunch of once viable lunch options that once existed are now gone (shut down), lowering the quality of food, or scamming you by giving you less food.

Sub Zero

A beautiful gift I recieved from a lady when I finshed my intern. The Japanese translates into something like this (slightly different) “Isn’t it amazing that in this large world, me and you met.” Pretty touching message. It makes me appreciate the good people that I have been lucky enough to meet in this cold world…
