Happy Father's Day

Since you're a faithful reader of the blog, you would know that I don't post on weekends. And because I will continue that trend, I'll post my Father's Day edition, today.

I called my dad Thursday evening just to say whassup and see how he was doing. Naturally he was in someone's 130 degree attic repairing the air conditioning for some poor soul in the Houston heat. My first job was working in these attics and I don't miss it at all. But I spent a lot of time in those cramped little spaces and learned a little about HVAC and a lot more about life. So thanks Dad and Happy Father's Day. Shout out to his Daddy and my Mama's Daddy. (I took the picture of him playing golf in the background).

Self Portrait

I like to photograph people but sometimes people aren't around to photograph. So I just shoot the person who is always around. Me, Myself and I. Self portraits are the most difficult thing to photograph, in my opinion, for a number of reasons. First and foremost, you can't see the moment it clicks. You don't know whats going on behind the camera when you're in front. Is it in focus, how's my composition, do I look like an idiot in this pose? Well I'm going to keep trying and it'll get better. You watch. Shout out to Cindy Sherman.
