The Long Absence
Sometime last fall, life got busy and I completely forgot about my love of photography, and as a result I forgot about Deviant Art as well. I don't know what exactly happened, but I lost my way a little. I would occasionally find myself thinking that something was missing from life. Don't think life wasn't treating me well though. I have an amazing family and love my job, but I really missed the creative process that accompanies photography.
Anyway, I finally went out last week on a hike and did some photography for the first time since about last September. It felt great to be behind the lens again and it has renewed the spark that had
Another Round of Features
I'm always amazed by some of the work I get in response to my "Journal Feature" forum posts. I always end up finding some wonderful new photos to enjoy and on occasion I also stumble across an artist who is exceptional, and I take time to browse their gallery and enjoy their vision.
I hope you take the time to look at the art I've found and enjoy it too. Who knows, you might just find something amazing...

Sure there are the usual few who post their same pictures every time (and I consequently ignore each time), but I always end up finding some wonderful new photos to enjoy.

The Joys of Fall
Fall is here, along with everything that goes with it. The leaves are changing, the air is crisp and cold, and flu season is in full swing... My wife and I both already got that lovely little present of nature, and it took us out for over a week. That was not a fun week, and I'm so glad I'm better. And now that I feel good again, it's time to take some trips out to photograph the fall foliage. I'm so anxious to get out and use my new camera! Oh yes, I finally got an upgrade to my Rebel XT: a 50D! Hurray!

Oy! So I'm working late-night custodial at the Wilk now, and we started setting up Christmas trees in late October, hoping to get a jumpstart (not to mention it's just what we were told to do). We got done with them sooner than we expected--shortly before Thanksgiving.
Apparently, somebody wrote a letter to the newspaper editor about how stupid it is that we start preparing for Christmas before Thanksgiving even happens and suggested that people speak out about it. So one night, we went to work to find handmade turkeys (you know, the kind where you trace your hand and color it brown and then make little oval feathers to paste on the fingers) and put them on the trees. The feathers said things like, "Celebrate Thanksgiving, you fools!"
Reeeeeaaaaal mature.
I think it's silly, too, but still. Meh.
And I never want to get involved in the craziness of Black Friday shopping. I did it once, and I do not ever want to do it again.
