ahhh…the world is too connected! between facebook, twitter, and a general lack of enthusiasm, its hard to keep up with posts. im essentially posting about the same topics repeatedly through too many different medias, each less well-written than the last. the obviously preferred medium now is twitter, where laziness is actually encouraged. then again, everybody and their sister is now a twitterer…heh, i guess like a few years ago, when everybody and their sister had a livejournal. i stick with all of them however, since its fun being an early adopter (tho the main motivator for being an early adopter is really so i get to reserve my preferred usernames).
but whatever…this year, which i had pretty much written off as total shit early on, is shaping up to be a pretty good year. it could even be as rockin’ as last year…which by all accounts, was pretty damn rockin’. in the last few weeks or so, ive agreed to shoot my friends wedding, planned a prague trip in september with a friend, picked up a new canon 5d mark II (oh noes, im a traitor!), and am flying off to atlanta to visit g+r over the 4th of july weekend…whew.
BAI BAI NIKON
first and foremost, yep…i have bailed on the nikon camp and am now firmly on the canon team. this is in no part a fault of nikons…i still <3 nikon. but most of my friends use canon, and i wouldnt mind terribly borrowing their vast array of lens. it was also a good time to switch (if i needed to) since i only had digital lens, and with the purchase of my first full-frame…its a good a time as any to start fresh. so my first official canon lens is the spanky canon 17-40mm…woot. i dont have it yet however, tho i have the body. its a pretty nice and expensive paper-weight til the lens arrive.
HELLO PRAGUE
and then theres prague…word…prague…woot. id never been, and honestly hadnt thought about visiting til a friend recommended it. and then it was an instant “fuck yes” in my head. its still a ways away tho…september, sigh…
