Photo Competition

Hey guys I need you to make a trip over to Maka's blog. We're having a photo competition and we need more votes. When you have some time, check out the talented photographers and their photos and choose the one you like. I'm not saying which one is mine cause all the photos are so awesome! I personally voted for someone else's cause it was so inspirational...and a little bit sexy to! Anyways, thanks to Maka and his wife Janae for putting together such a wonderful workshop. Congrats on the new addition to the family.

Louisiana

I didn't catch this guys name but he's from Louisiana. He told me that he came down to Utah with his wife looking for a better life. His dad was from Oakland and he was planning on becoming a sheaf. Thats pretty much all I remember. I call this picture Louisiana.

I'm still digesting all that was said from you and Omi. Thank you guys. Heres a lil sum sum for the time being.

My upgrade

I've upgraded my camera body from a Nikon d200 to a Nikon D300. I have to say that I'm impressed. I've herd a lot of talk about it before I bought it but we've decided to take our "foto" quality to the next level.

So I got my little model and came up with a few pics for you guys to take a look at. I didn't edit these pictures at all. Just slapped my logo on and threw them on flickr. I think it's a great camera. What do you say?
