I bought a tripod.

I went to the L.A. camera swap meet in Pasadena today and bought myself a tripod. If you don't know about it, it's a monthly event where people come to buy and sell camera goods, from vintage cameras to used dSLRs. I spent less than what I expected to for my tripod, so I would say that the trip was a success. I was tempted to buy a sweet camera bag but I managed to control myself. It's going to take some practice working with the tripod, but it will come together at some point. A more immediate effect of this purchase though, is that I'll probably do a bit more video blogging since it will be easier rigging up my camera. I might record a conversation with my mom or something. That would be hilarious.

I bought a new camera.

I bought a Holga the other day. Since I spend all my money on beer and cigarettes, I wasn’t able to afford the Canon flash that I wanted to buy, so I bought this instead. I got an alright deal and I even bought an external flash attachment for it just for kicks. I’ll be trying it out this weekend and see what comes out. Hopefully I can get my hands on a scanner at some point.

I guess you don't have to look to hard.  Here's the link: my photostream.

I’ve finally decided to cough up the $25 to pay for the damn pro account.  I know it’s lacking content right now, but I have a ton of photos that I’ll be putting up over the next week.

The Photojojo Daily Pic Pick

I haven't really touched my camera in a while.  I'm going to blame the weather on this, because I'm usually hesitant to bring my camera out when there's a chance of rain.  Anyway, you can check out the contest here.  For the entire month of July, there will be a different theme every day and there's a winner picked at the end of each day.  I'm not thinking I'm going to be winning anything, but it's practice at least.
