A friend took this shot last night at our staff party.

Not a great shot of me, but I was trying out a new lighting set up. also I like the extremely basic composition of the shot.

Sometimes the things we thought that we were meant to do, in fact, weren't.

Over the last two years I have completely shifted the creative focus in my life from what brought me here initially(playing music), to photography. Although I love playing, it always felt like an uphill battle with my fingers not always doing what I wanted them to do - things never quite sounding as they did in my head.

When I picked up a camera, things just seemed to 'click' a lot easier. Almost immediately I was much happier with my creative output, and the response was much better as well. I went from struggling to get people to listen to my music to being double, sometimes triple booked to shoot bands on a given night

These days I'm still immersed in music, but from behind a lens rather than on a stage. It's funny how life works sometimes.

This guitar has served me well for almost ten years, but a guitar sitting silently is a crime against nature so I have passed it (as well as almost all of my other gear) on to others so that it shall not remain mute.

It's been a while since I've posted, and even longer since I've posted a pic, so here we are.
