What time is it?

Mostly, people suck. The other night, a drunk man was at a deli while crying about wanting to see his son. He was also, of course, yelling at me with all the required projectile saliva. The deli cashier told the drunk man not to curse in front of young kids like us (Mark and I). Ah, the benefits of looking like a 14 year old. Before all of this, on the way to the deli, someone drove by saying, "Fucking asians." Conor jokes that maybe the man was saying "I love fucking asians" and I just didn't catch the first part.

Anyhow, Conor likes to wake up at 5 am to torture himself (he calls it working out). So, in an effort to un-rust myself, I photographed him.

Afterwards, I got a bagel at Bagel Corner, then a large iced coffee (no sugar) at Starbucks, where I got to meet Jonathan.

Apparently he skates, shoots photo and video, but wishes he'd get more into photography. Cool guy, not grouchy at 6:30 in the morning. See, not everyone's an asshole.

Conor Romero

IMG_6200

This is my friend Conor Lee Alexander Romero. He is an up and coming actor. Years from now, people will come to the nursing home and ask me, "you took photos of Conor Romero?!" and I'll say, "I can't believe my children put me in a nursing home."

The 40D

I got the 40D yesterday. Here are some photos. God created the CMOS sensor so that those of us with f3.5 lenses could take photos like these, some at an ISO of 3200
