– 64 days - part 2
About a week before my departure from work, we had a new kid come in to replace me. He was 20 and your typical beer-and-pussy-loving frat bro with trademark phrase of “that’s gay”. I had the lucky responsibility of being the main one to train him, thus we got to...

Hello S95.
Been missing taking photos a lot and am rarely in the position (nor have the motivation) to lug around my SLR everywhere.
In the meantime I picked up a couple rolls of film for my rangefinder and am seriously hoping the battery still works and I won’t be getting a bunch of blank photos back.

I wish I did this when I lost my point and shoot last month. :(
A startling realization:
I cannot passively read about photography and practice it. Reading about various photoshop techniques, posting on forums and the like. I just can’t do it. It’s boring and I feel like I am making no real progress.
I need to be out in the field, surrounded by people that I can actively feed off of and learn from. Face to face. I think this is why I enjoyed college so much and actually...

Christmas time
Didn’t end up doing a lot of shooting over the break but I did manage to send two rolls of film through my rangefinder. In the meantime, prepare for an onslaught of pictures I took (read: six :P) at the dog park today before heading to the airport.

Photography is not art goddamnet! It’s just a Xerox of what just happened.

Hah.
Hey guys! Guess what, guess what!
After a minor mishap with the batteries I ordered (read: me being a dumbass and not ordering enough), my rangefinder finally works! Aaaah, I am so excited to take it on the town sometime soon.
Eeeeee!
Also apologies for not being so active as of late. School is kicking my butt, yadda yadda yadda, [insert usual gripe about being a student]. Fear not! I did take some time out of my weekend to...

Watching videos by Karen and Mike got me off my ass to throw together a series of clips from the train ride I took from Toronto to Edmonton late this spring. If my exam schedule works out in December, I will likely be taking the same trip from Sioux Lookout to Ottawa. 1) Breakfast. 2) Birds. 3) “Five minute smoke break” turned two hour wait for a broken-down train to clear. 4)...
New bloggity
I realized my other blog (firequall.tumblr.com) seems somewhat spam-like for readers viewing my main/pro site (garymusson.com), and that they probably have no idea what the hell is going on. Anyway, decided to create this little bloggity to post about recent photographic happenings, photos I really like and general inspiration.
Now let’s see how long I can keep up this whole two blog thing....
