Tahoe

Another rule break from the 12/2010 project. Oh well, kinda hard to resist when I'm in Tahoe :D.Too tired from snowboarding and hiking to write anything inspirational and poetic, so on to the photos. Seems like my dog loves attention...the only good photos of the day were of him.

In the Left corner, we have the world champion snow-eater Quizno. In the Right corner, his opponent, well...ran away...

The Itch to Practice


Do you go, day by day, waiting for the next opportunity to take part in an activity? Do you put other things on hold in order for just a few minutes of this activity? Do you think about it while doing other things during the day? If any of these hold true, you, my friend, have a case of the itch. Whether its martial arts, photography, polka dancing or anything else, people need hobbies to make the boring moments less mundane, and to pass the time. Everyone has them, no matter how obscure or unapparent they are. So do yourself a favor,go out there, and do your thing! Bonus points if you get odd stares from people around you. Its not nearly as fun unless you get a reaction!


I have to admit that today I broke with the rules of project 12/2010 and had to go shoot. Since there is no city anywhere nearby, I had to make do shooting animals and practicing techniques/composition. Friday, I will be back home, equipped to shoot cable-cars and other downtown city scenes so stay tuned!
