These years just won't slow down, they just roll on by. My new year's resolution is to make the best out of 2009, make it a year at the end of which i can really say: "man i've lived the shit out of this year, can't thing of a thing i didn't do"
rant: shooting film
Since the jerk that was supposed to sell me a camera didn't manage to send it within 20 days i asked for a refund, and now i have to wait one more month for my 5d (money was refunded and i'm getting a new one since there are big rebates from Canon in the US) :(
Until then i'm condemned to film... which seems to get more and more expensive since the costs of making films are growing because of the small demand and smaller production. Yes, digital has taken over, but if i go shooting landscape in the autumn, i would rather shoot a fresh 5-pack of Fuji Velvia or Kodak E100VS rather than my 5D.
So, right now i'm waiting for 3 films to get scan
devious rant :))
Sold my 350D [for 450$ with grip and no lens](damn those entry level SLR's sure do depreciate fast). Buying a brand new camera is madness if you don't make big cash from photography...
A 1Ds mark II used to be 8000$ retail last year. They sell for under 4000$ used now. There still are some lunatics asking for 4500-5000, but nobody falls for those prices :P
Lenses tend not to depreciate so fast, so i've bought myself a 24-70/2.8 L. I don't have it yet, i'll have it in one month, hopefully alongside a 20D (you might think it's not a big upgrade from 350D, but for professional photography that is the minimum requirement - 350D is useful but n

contemplating metamorphosis
pondering about world leadership stupidity (f-inkg Nato summit lolz) - who the fuck lobotomized these guys??
no, i don't claim to be highly intelligent but i do consider most of the world leaders to be highly hypocritical, stupid, mentally challenged, ignorant, dumb as fuck, illiterate and idiotic above all... i just don't get war... i don't understand the concept of mass destruction. Does it really take war to get to peace? don't really think so, but the chain reaction can't be stopped that easily.
yes... there i go, another rant about some crap that ticks me off. soon i will name all my journal entries: Deviou

I hate photographers that edit fogs into their pictures :boo: if you are one of those people who edit the skies - insert clouds, or add fog then: :stupid:
That is cheap and downright f**cking pathetic...
only respect for this guy: `foureyes (https://www.deviantart.com/foureyes) , i think his photographs taken in china are amazing! they are just great, but why would anyone ruin a perfectly beautiful picture with some dodge, or transparent white brush to insert a mysterious (2D) fog.
As an art consumer i feel betrayed...
Although... it's understandable... these days everybody's a photographer... go buy a digital rebel, or a 30D, take a few snapshots, make them all nic
