Words of Wisdom from "Crazy Danny"...
"Hey kids, check me out with my cool van. If you want to be as hip as me, you better come to the focuspoint show tonight in Bellingham. We're playing at Hot Shotz and the cover is $5. Bring your fake IDs because the show is 21+. Stay in school, and only do drugs that grow from the ground."
I'm really stoked on these photos I worked on tonight.
The first is of the Reichstag, where Germany was declared a unified country in 1990. The colors kick ass.
And this is of a ska band that Wesley and I caught in Prague. The colors do not kick ass, but the vibe does.
I have a drinking problem. I mean, I drink way too much coffee in all of its forms.
I usually start the day with a cup or two of drip Fiore coffee at home. (Thanks, Katrine!)
I arrive at work between 8:30 and 9 a.m. and get in another cup of coffee shortly after arriving, which is why I can type approximately 210 wpm early in the day.
I cruise through lunch but need a pick-me-up around 2 p.m., which is when I splurge for a latte or mocha.
The realization that all this specialty drink consumption is bad for my health leads me to make the following announcement:
I AM TRANSITIONING TO SOY.
Sure I drink my drip coffee black, but I'm usually drinking dairy with my lattes or mochas.
No more. By drinking soy with my third, fourth or fifth caffienated drink of the day, I am sure to live a healthier lifestyle from now on.
Goddammit. Rage Against the Machine and Radiohead are playing Lollapalooza this year. Now I have to go to Chicago.
I'm working on post-processing photos from my Europe trip and found a couple favorites...
This is on the elevator ride up the Reichstag in Berlin. The lines, angle and a lucky, blind shot worked for me here.
This is the view from the castle in Salzburg. The clouds created a spotlight effect on a neighboring guard station.
The far, tallest mountain is supposedly the mountain from which Julie Andrews ran to her monastery upon hearing church bells in "The Sound of Music." The scene of her running back from the mountains to the monastery, below the castle, took just seconds. I can assure that Julie Andrews could not have run that fast... Or could she?
