Day 571 of 365 More. It’s the little things we take for granted. You know, little things like electricity. You’d be amazed at how much stff in the house doesn’t work when the power goes out. Sure, I mean, I figured the TV would be out. But you also lose the internet, and more importantly,…

Day 570 of 365 More. If you keep running around at 100 miles an hour, sooner or later you’re going to crash. Later came today. I wanted to come straight home from work and get right back into scripting Cosmic Hellcats, but by the last 30 min. or so of the work day I was…

Day 569 of 365 More. Witness the creative process. Maverick Studios isn’t just for photography. I alluded to my new project in yesterday’s pic. Today I spent the day working on it. I first decided I wanted to be an artist when I was seven years old. Only I didn’t so much want to be…

Day 567 of 365 More. Time for some R&R. I spent the entire week working overtime in order to get my project done to demo on friday. I woke up early Friday morning with a really bad stomach ache, but it didn’t really matter because I had to go present to the client one way…

Day 566 of 365 More. At work they wanted file headshots of everyone in my company (its a small company) so guess who got elected to that duty. I don’t mind really. But it reminds me how much I’d rather be taking pictures than working. Maybe I’ll play the Powerball this weekend. It should be…

Day 565 of 365 More. I live in Pittsburgh. And like all Pittsburghers, I hate television football announcers. Actually, I disliked them before I even moved here. But once I moved here, and found that its standard fare for Pittsburghers to turn down the TV volume and watch the game with the radio on, well……

Day 564 of 365 More. There just aren’t enough hours in the day. Not even close. I did get a lot done at work today, but when i came home I spent the entire evening editing photos and researching my next photo project (which I actually have a really great idea for, and hopefully one…

Day 563 of 365 More. I still hate strobes. I really do. I mean, I guess it works well enough, but I can really tell. This pic just looks a little colder and harder than what I like. Anyway, I got the remote triggers in for my flash today. It seems to misfire on occasion…

Day 562 of 365 More. I have a genius level IQ. I double majored at one of the most prestigious colleges in this country. I created a worldwide self portrait community that has touched the lives of thousands. I’ve designed websites and software for billion dollar corporations. I’m a published author. A professional wrestler. a…

Day 561 of 365 More. I’ve wanted to learn to brew my own beer for a long time. I don’t know why. I’m perfectly capable of picking up a case at the distributor. But something about the process just always seemed cool. My mother bought me a kit for Christmas, but I never got around…

Day 560 of 365 More. We hadn’t played Rockband in a while, so Steph and I decided to invite our neighbors over to play. We got a lot farther in the game than we had previously, including finally opening up Blue Oyster Cult’s Don’t Fear the Reaper. Any game is automatically made better with the…

Day 559 of 365 More. I hate flash photograohy. I think I’ve mentioned that before. I know I’ve said it on the podcast. 9,999,999 out of 10,000,000, I’d rather use my good old fashioned hot lights. The problem is , it’s really hard to take my entire studio with me wherever I go, so I…

Day 558 of 365 More. I wated to take some pictures of the eclipse, but it was damn cold outside. So my picture is me, as though I was being eclipse. I know that’s not too much different than a lot of what I do normally. But oh well. If it helps. This one is…

Day 557 of 365 More. You know what every kid is gonna want this Christmas? The new Maverick action figure. What cool be cooler than that? You wanna know what? It now comes with Kung-Fu grip. That’s right. Say you have the old Maverick action figure. You figure you don’t need the new one, right?…
