Hey i really admire your blog!!! You sir have life figured out and your doing what you like!! I followed you amazing blog and i was wondering if you could either follow or promote me?? It would mean the WORLD to me, because i am an aspiring photographer myself...but im clearly not as good as you!! :)

Jonofarn,

Keep on tumbling, ty for the kind words.  I tend to only follow and “promote” (hate this word) when it is natural, organic, and also for the intrinsic pleasure.  If I want to track other tumblr’s like yours I have a separate bookmark folder in Chrome for people I like to go through once a week and like bomb. It is nothing personal, but I only follow 10% of my followers, but make a point of checking out tumblr’s who have liked my photos and are active.

To elaborate, I just think it should never be asked….would you ask someone in real life to be your friend? No you would let it happen as you hang out and chill together.  

Bottom line is to do things for you own happiness, not for the numbers or the followers or likes, and you will be the most popular person on tumblr (if that is what you want).  For me it is about interacting with people I can learn from on here, and also a cathartic experience where I can publish my photos.  Keep up the photography and get some more original content up, and maybe a set of series.  Good luck!

Sometime’s things fall into place, and almost always it is never the way you wanted nor expected it.  It could be the exam you thought you would fail, a race you could barely finish, but you kept turning your pedals or pushing that pencil.  Or was it a presentation at work you did not think you were ready for, but many coffee beans later you nailed it.  Sweat, blood, tears; both inside or out reveal the true intentions of your dreams.  I always used to say it is a new day, go get what you want.  With lack of sleep and overloaded work I can’t realize the day or time or see my dreams, so I will leave you with this before I venture to the back bowls…
Don’t just not give up, fight for it all. Negotiate with the shoe sales men, when at a garage sale dig to the bottom of the bin to find a treasured vintage camera, price out cars for the heck of it, check market prices for inventory in media (or others), ask stupid questions, and always give your self a break & a turkey sandwich.  Anyone reading this should know you deserve it all. Now go get it.

James approves of the new gear.

When Mama Singh visits, she insists on staying with us.  I was convinced it was because she loves me the most, but one morning I found out the real reason….James.
