SNOWBALL FIGHT!, originally uploaded by CrazyBebopper.

Ok, technically "hail" according to the SJ Merc, but it was still fun! This is my snow set for when it snowed on friday, right outside my dorm. Freaky for San Jose to have snow, but it actually stuck for more than an hour which is bizare. It was fun while it lasted! :)

Update time! Pics yanked from random timeframes over the last 2 months that I liked found their way on to flickr. This particular one was taken in San Diego's Ocean Beach. I guess it's technically supposed to be a surfmobile, but the name is appropriate for something so... squished.

Sorry for the catatonic state I've been in the last couple months. My camera access has been nearly non-existant. Good news though: I've gotten a new (well, technically refurbished) Konica Minolta Z2. I love it. It cost me $124 on ebay, and it was worth every penny and more. I've already taken about 60 pictures, to the major detriment of my homework. I got it in the mail last night, and couldn't stop playing with it. Up till 4:30 this morning finishing an essay because of it. :) 10x zoom & 4.0 megapixels are rediculously cool. Check for more updates soon.

This guy just happened to walk in to frame at just the perfect moment for 1/640th of a second exposure. Full 10x zoom on my new camera works fine, as long as there's lots of light for you to jack up the shutter speed. :) Taken today (11/15/2005) about 20 minutes ago.

It's me!

There are too many stores like this in downtown SJ. The rent is too expensive for most small businesses to be successful. It makes an interesting picture though.

Taken on First Street in between San Carlos and Santa Clara.

My New Photoblog...

2005-09-19T22:33:00.000-07:00

I doubt many people will be terribly interested in this page, just in case anyone is, I decided that deviantart was too restrictive... I wanted to put up a creative commons license instead of their one-size-fits-all licensing and giving full access to deviantart... So I'm copying my good freind Daniel's idea and using blog-spot.com & flickr. Hopefully I'll get this set up soon and post some photos. Until then, adieu.
