Ray & Kim Prenup Session

Sometimes the weather just isn't so helpful and the sky rains when want it not to. But, just as hard as the rain was, so were our heads.

Despite the rain, we went on with the shoot and got these photos in return. Nay, "awarded" with these cool looking snaps for our resilience and creativity.

Good thing also, we already had the colds before we got rained on.

Prometheus: A totally different beginning

At the film's onset, I was led to believe this movie was solely about humankind's creation. But lo and behold, it, too, was about the creation of the alien creatures of the Alien franchise. Which is super cool 'coz I am an Aliens fan.

Subtle work, Ridley. Subtle work.

PS. I was looking for reviews from the RottenTomatoes.com website and found this bit quote interesting:

It’s telling that Prometheus’s collection of characters includes only one real standout and that this most memorable of characters is a robot played by Michael Fassbender, an actor whose lightly expressed sardonic wit can be as subtle as one of his character’s raised eyebrows. Fassbender’s David is a humanoid variation of 2001’s HAL, a machine that develops its human style by watching Peter O’Toole in Lawrence of Arabia. Nice touch.

We just transferred to a new place. And at our new front yard, these are the plants and flowers we see daily (aside from the wonderful view of the ocean from our balcony).

What is a photo walk?

It’s a social photography event where photographers get together (usually in a downtown area or trendy section of town) to walk around, shoot photos, and generally have fun with other photographers.

Who is Scott Kelby?

Kelby is a photographer, designer, and the award-winning author of more than 50 books, including Photoshop Down & Dirty Tricks, The Photoshop CS3 Book for Digital Photographers, The Photoshop Channels Book, Photoshop Classic Effects, The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Book for Digital Photographers, The iPod Book, The Digital Photography Book, and The iPhone Book.

In 2008 he started the "Scott Kelby Worldwide Photowalk". In 2009 this consisted of communal photowalks in 900 cities.

My first post. Of a lot more. I suppose. For this blog, I mean.

I've been blogging on and off now. Each blog hinting of the activity(s) I was passionate about and enthused with at the time of creating, managing and writing the blog. Or, representing a current venture I am having during a particular weblog's (active) presence.

Anyhow, this new one here would be written to be suggestive of both my personal and professional photography work (an obvious topic for most of my blogs), and such of my other (current) services, interests and pre-occupations.

I will try to make my posts interesting, engaging or at least un-wasteful of your time. (I know you have your FB newsfeed to attend to.)
