Being sick sucks

   Posted by: Marcellus   in Family, Friends, Macro, Photography

Been under the weather throughout the week, so I’ve been having quite a bit of rest here on Saturday.  Gotta get up and start cleaning up around the house though.  I wanted to just throw a quick update out here just to keep things alive and to show off some of the things that I’ve been doing throughout the past 7 days.  Hopefully, next week, I’ll be in much better shape to get things going more. 

Haven’t shot any soccer this weekend due to recovery, but I’m still waiting to see more participation from the parents as far as buying pictures.   Can’t work for free, you know!

My brother and his wife her in town over the weekend so I got to hang out with them.  Surprisingly, even though the camera was with me, I just hung out without taking any shots.  Of course, he ribs me about being a camera/photo geek so I wanted to avoid that too haha.

Over the weekend, Renee wanted me to come hang out and get some good pictures for a get-together that she was having.   Turned out to be a pretty good time.  Oh! And never have too much to drink when a photographer is around.

Also, on Monday, when I was about to mow the lawn, I saw my neighbor Ed out with his camera trying to take a picture of something.  Turns out that he had spotted a praying mantis in his garden.  I hadn’t had the chance to photograph any yet, so I was definitely more interested in doing that rather than mowing the lawn.  While there, I got some interesting shots of other insects around as well.

Well, it’s time to start cleaning up around the house!  Peace!

Awww man, I had to go onto Youtube and take the time machine back to the teenage days and find some of the videos and songs that I loved to listen to while I was a kid.  Well, without further ado, here we go

A photo on the Redmond-based company’s U.S. marketing Web site microsoft.com shows two men, one Asian and one black, and a white woman seated at a conference room table. But on the Web site of Microsoft’s Polish business unit, the black man’s head has been replaced with that of a white man. The color of his hand remains unchanged.
