Break

So lately I've taken a break from doing photoshoots to focus on other stuff, mainly to relax and just enjoy summer. One of the things I got back into was photomanipulations inspired by some tutorials I found online.

It's been awhile since I've gotten to play with photoshop and it felt good just to mess around with pictures again. Down below are the ones that turned out decent. And now it'll be nice to get back to shooting.

Stupid LA

Man I haven't updated this thing in awhile, guess I haven't made any poor decisions lately...until now. 5 parking tickets in the span of 3 weeks. I hate you LA

Moneys

Money is one of those things where you don't really care about until it becomes your responsibility, and then it starts to have a huge impact on your life. Luckily for me I was taught to be responsible with my money from a young age and that has helped a lot, but even then you always find yourself in a tad bit of a hole every once in awhile.

These holes usually come in the form of either extraneous expenditures or over spending on necessities such as food. I have come to ask myself if I really need 80 hot dogs from Costco as seeing they'll probably rot or I'll die of a heart attack before I finish them. Yes they are a steal when bought in bulk, but its worth saving the 5 bucks by sucking it up and going to Ralphs to get the 6 pack instead.

Looking into my fridge recently I found myself in this little hole. I have more than enough food yet when I'm out either at work or somewhere around town, I still find myself pulling out my wallet to buy food. So for the rest of this month I will no longer be spending anymore money on food. I will have to hunker down and eat all thats in my fridge breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Yes I've seen those blogs/articles where people go on living for a month on a dollar or don't drive for a year. They save a ton of money, but no way am I ready to put myself through that gauntlet just yet. Baby steps. Baby steps.

Uncommon Art

I must say I love art that has the ability to take something that is ingrained in pop culture and take a new twist on it. Case in point Star Wars in the style of Feudal Japan art.

Han Solo and Chewbacca

Genetic Engineering

Genetically modifying our food has gone too far when I open my hardboiled egg and the yolk looks like this.

Hindsight

Hindsight is a funny mistress. In a single stroke she'll show you the lessons you need to keep you moving forward in life all the while repeatedly punching you in the face for all the stupid decisions you've made before.

Starcraft!!

This made me laugh today haha
