Does this count as being “published”?

13 07 2007

I got as close as I’ve ever been to being published recently.  On Norden Autohaus’ website, they have a picture of mine to lead off a gallery of their showcar, the Norden1.  Head over to http://www.nordenautohaus.com and click the “norden tuner” link on the left.  Then click on the gallery, and mine is the first image.  The strange thins is that this shot was completely candid and unexpected.  I was driving home from a Volkswagen show in Sylvan Lake (FahrFromHome2006), and we drove side by side most of the way.  I just snapped this one out my driver’s side window at about 130km/h, and it turned out decent enough.

Not only did they publish me on their website, but we’re also doing a formal shoot soon with the Norden1, so stay tuned for some updates on that, I’m excited.  It’s such an amazing car, and it looks awesome too, very easy to photograph I’m sure.  I’ll be trying some new techniques, so I better get practicing on my car, so that they turn out well on the Norden1,

First milestone

13 07 2007

Hey everyone (aka the 4 people who check my blog just because I tell them to), just gonna put up a little celebration post, my blog has now received 500 hits (not even including my own!).  So congratulations to me, and thanks to everyone who checks here from time to time, I hope I can keep it interesting enough to keep you checking often.

And in other news, I got some new equipment that I am very excited for.  I bought a Nikon 70-200/2.8 VR lens on Thursday, so hopefully I’ll get it sometime next week.  I absolutely love the images this lens puts out, so once I get it you can expect an update almost every day for a while, I’m sure I won’t be able to put it down!
