Quote (among many from this book) that I love...

"Through the gamut of life we struggled for control, for a means to fashion the world around us, an eternal, hopeless hunt for the privilege of being able to predict the shape of our lives." - Steven Erikson from "Malazan Book of the Fallen - 1: Gardens of the Moon"

What I'm working on...

Work, day job work, has picked up quiet a bit. I'm on 3 or 4 projects for different allocations. I'm enjoying the work and the new challenges. Helps that the teams I'm working with are good at what they do. Also managed to sell a piece of work for a new client. This will start in the next few weeks hopefully too. So, busy holiday season.

I wanted to up my phototgraphy game a bit and figured it is finally time to upgrade from my pretty inexpensive Canon DSLR. So, after a lot of procrastination, research and hours spent on YouTube, now I'm the proud owner of a new Canon R8 mirrorless camera. Picked up two different lenses for it too. I got the prime 50mm f/1.8 and a zoom 24-105mm f/4 USM lens. At the end of the day practice and technique matter the most, but decent gear helps and based on the past couple of weeks this camera and glass are going to work very well for me for the next few years.

As always, I have a few cool new posts over at my food site,check them out here.

Till next time!
