Paradise Lost By Kokopedal Posted on: May 12th 2009, 07:43am5 comments
Well.... I have moved back to the mainland. San Diego, Ca the land of pretentious yuppies, a place with a Starbucks on every Conner. Where your level in society is determined by the length of time it takes to order your coffee (the more words the better). And the boobs are probably fake. The speed limit is 65 mph but if your not doing 80 be prepared to get the finger, the other hand is busy with the cell phone. I don't even want to talk about the cost of property, which by the way they say is going down, a million bucks will get you in a nice 3bdr 2 bath home with five feet between you and your neighbor. You want a roof on that house, well that's gonna cost you extra. At least I am near the ocean, it's not warm like it was in Hawaii I guess I'll have to buy a drysuit, and the local divers tole me that conditions have improved, today they had 12 foot of visibility. I didn't have to move back but it was my choice so here I am and I will have to make the best of it. I guess there [read more]

I had some of my Photoshop brushes (that are available here at BioRUST) included on the cover-disc of last December's issue of Photoshop Creative magazine. The funny thing about it was that I didn't even know until one of the members at BioRUST happened to mention it!
I remember the link about Posterbored now - thank you for reminding me. I don't think I'll be taking them up on the offer, though. Thing is, I'm a bit of a control-freak and I like to be in full control of all my stuff.
As to doing this sort of stuff professionally...well, I've always been guided by the words of George Eastman (the guy that founded Kodak) who said: "What we do during our working hours determines what we have; what we do in our leisure hours determines what we are."
I just feel that if I was doing photography for a living, there would be a point when I wouldn't want to do it any more, so I'd prefer to keep it as a hobby.
