Dusk

I love pictures at dusk.


This isn't really that great of a photo, just one that I like personally. Every night that I worked at Pizza Hut I would end up driving by this Marathon gas facility in Champaign and on good nights I would see a beautiful sunset kind of like this one in the background. It's something I always wanted to get a picture of so I didn't forget what it looked like so I forced myself the last night I was in Champaign to go shoot it. I got lucky and had a nice clear night to shoot it on and even got part of a crescent moon in it.

It's sad I just now tooks the time to edit it, but I guess better late than never, huh? If I would have been able to get inside to shoot I could have done something really neat I think, but that's what I get for procrastinating so much. If I ever get back there I should find a way to get inside.

Green Thumb

In the move to Rochelle I apparently brought a green thumb with me.



It's been a while since I've gotten on here, but that has to do because of many factors. One being the insane amount of time I've spent moving stuff in, putting it away, and then moving it to a new place because it's not in the right place. The second has to do with not having internet until about a week ago. I'm trying to find the time now to blog between working my full-time job, working part-time around the apartment complex as an assistant maintenance, and having a life.

good news though. I have a new lens on the way. I've got a 70-200mm lens that I can shoot some sports with. I'm going to hopefully start something like what Clark has going on in Champaign here in Rochelle. I think it could work, but it's going to take a lot of work and hob nobbing. Maybe by then I'll be able to get a job with a paper. I'm starving to do something journalistic.

I'll fill in what my regular job and everything is tomorrow when I get the chance. It's about 10:15 pm and I'm wiped out. So much for the college hours.
