Yup, did some research and found out that the F717 Sony camera is defective and there is a class action lawsuit against them for it. I shipped my camera back to them free of charge, they just got done fixing it and are now shipping it back to me. So (fingers crossed) I should have my camera back by Thursday the 13th, im so excited, im sure I will be posting like a madman, already have a trip planned to the zoo this weekend with my GF. Anyways im stoked and figured people would want to know about Sony.

The lawsuit ends on October 14th, so if you have a camera, get it to them quick!

here are the links...

I have no camera anymore, my Sony took a crap on me, and I have no camera to shoot with now. Im saving up to get a Canon 5D but its going to take me at least a year, sorry to anyone who visits my page on a regular basis, im sure you noticed I haven't been posting much at all, and this is the reason. The last photos I got were shooting at my friends wedding when it died. So until I get the cash together, the only thing you will see on my pages will be my graphic design. I will keep everyone posted on when I recieve a new camera. Thanks to everyone for all of your lovely comments on my photography!

So about a month ago I saw a posting on craigslist for a nightlife photographer here in Phoenix.  So I sent them an email stating that i was interested in the position, and sent a link along to my blog here on buzz.  After a couple weeks I hadn't heard back from them so I figured they didn't like my stuff.  But I got an email saying that they viewed my blog and liked my photography better then all the other applicants, and wanted to know if I was still interested. So I accepted and told them to call me.  Anyways after a conversation on the phone they gave me some background on what they do, I was totally stoked because it opens up other avenues of not only income for me, but also for my DJ'ing and my graphic design knowledge because they also own an advertising agency. 

Anyways, so tonight I go out on my "probational" shoot, I have to shoot 4 events before I can officially become a photographer for them.  After which, I will be the lead photographer covering all of Arizona and all of the major weekly and monthly events here in town. So I chose to go to club 6 tonight, for a couple reasons.  My buddy is running a weekly there right now, so the exposure will help him, also im familiar with the club and know where to get the good pics.  Anyways, im excited and thought all my buzz friends should know.  Hopefully this is a good venture for me, and not a sour grape.

If you wanna check out the site, its a global nightlife website located at www.hype1.com  if you want to sign up, send me a message and I will enter the both of us in a contest to win a free digital camera.  Wish me luck!

Trying hard to speak
And fighting with my weak hand
Driven to distraction
So part of the plan

When
something is broken
And you try to fix it
Trying to
repair it
Any way you can

I dive in at the deep
end
You become my best friend
I wanna love you but I
don't know if I can

I know something is
broken
and I'm trying to fix it
Trying to repair
it anyway I can

Oooohh, oooohh
Oooohh, oooohh

You and me are floating on a tidal wave... together
You and me are drifting into outer space... and singing

Oooohh, oooohh

You and me are floating on a
tidal wave... together
You and me are drifting into outer
space

You and me are floating on a tidal wave...
together
You and me are drifting into outer space... and
singing

Oooohh, oooohh
Oooohh, oooohh

On August 29th, it will have been one year since I have signed up.  Nearing 40,000 page views, I just wanted to send a small thank you to everyone who comments, and checks my page on a regular basis.  Without you, I would have never gone this far with this blog, but you people keep me inspired, so I want to THANK YOU, the average consumer of my digital photography. Here is to another 40,000 page views in the next coming  year!

3 cheers!

Baby, do you understand me now
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But, don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel.
When things go wrong I feel real bad.
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide.
And sometimes it seems that, all I have to do is worry
And then you're bound to see my other side.
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
If I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems
And I get my share
And that's one thing I never mean to do
'Cause I love you
Oh, Oh, oh, oh, baby - don't you know I'm human
I have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself, Lord, regretting
Some foolish thing - some little simple thing I've done
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.

So I decided to start scanning in all of my pictures that I have from before my time, through my childhood, and into my early adult years.  This will be one huge project, spanning 30 years of time roughly.  So im looking at hundreds of photos, most all need to be touched up, or color corrected. Im working on getting some people to sign up to buzznet so I can get a premium account and be able to upload more then 180 images. 

Anyways, for those of you that are asking yourself "is this guy nuts" well, yeah....sort of.  I have an obsession with digitizing stuff, from my music, to my designs, to my photography.  I like to have stuff on hardrives rather then keep them in physical form.  So yeah, embarassing pictures of my family, and me soon to come.  Stay tuned......
