This Photographer’s Life
July 16th, 2008
Today I want to write about something a little different. The life of this photographer beyond the camera.
At the beginning of this year I vowed as a new year’s resolution to try to restore some balance to my life. My problem is I’m a very “all-or-nothing” kind of person and have a hard time doing anything not at 150000% effort. This has been a golden truth for me for some years now. In keeping with that attitude about three and a half months ago I decided to start exercising more and dieting. At this point I have now lost 65 lbs and am scheduled to compete in my first Triathlon on Aug 10th. It’s been a wild journey, and haven’t been easy, but I feel great and I feel it’s been absolutely worth while. Unfortunately I haven’t been doing so good at the whole “balance” thing. I have neglected my blog and haven’t been doing personal photo projects as much as I should. With this, I’m starting to realize that no matter what I do, I will always be an all or nothing kind of person, and it is one of my greatest strengths, although it has its drawbacks. I will be more active in keeping with the blog from now on. I have a lot of new work to share and discuss and it’s not fair to you to keep it to myself.
So, I’m back … and better than ever … and looking forward to take many more amazing pictures this year.
