here are some photos that im selling but the rest can be found at  my facebook album:

we had a chance to visit the grand canyon skywalk. ive never seen a bigger tourist trap.

and if youve talked to me before about photography, youll know that i love ultra wide landscapes w/ clouds. one day i hope for some time to just go out with my narrow 50mm and do some different type of photography.

i dont think i will ever get sick of flying and enjoying the view from up here

we took the behind the scenes tour too which is well worth it to see how they run the aquarium and the back end of the tanks. really fascinating stuff to see whats in the back and how they keep their animals and such.

this all timely happened sunday after a sermon on the wrath of god. (mp3 @ http://sfbible.org/). pastor henry mentioned about how we all have no excuse not to acknowledge god because he has revealed himself in “general revelation” that is, in creation and the things around us. i came out of this aquarium thinking, “how can people not see that there is a higher being in all of this?!” its so beautiful, so perfect, so amazing, and why my first love in photography has always been nature.

beauty is all around us. big pics for you guys.

tropical fish have so much color

almost like a sci-fi movie! jellyfish need circular tanks otherwise they be just sitting on the bottom of a square tank and die because they cant move around to feed themselves…they need the current. in this tank they go round and round hehe

dropping magic fairy dust!

jellyfish dancing. jellyfish are fun and easy to shoot.

yes, i am fascinated by space too

seriously beautiful. so serene.

i originally thought the LCD TVs playing in the background were distracting but i think it enhances the sci-fi-ness of this image.

magic sparklies all over!!

rays are like the birds of the sea! love the tunnels in this aquarium!

its like looking up into the sky but not!

i was going to photoshop in a tail for this guy but i didnt wanna patronize him. hes still beautiful though!

3s a company hehe

and they have bees in here too which i thought was random but oh well. its cool. theres also other animals like chinchillas too.

nature is beautiful as it is because thats how god created it to be.

but sometimes i like to give the same pic an oldie feel too….

ironically…soon ill be back reppin’ the bay. i think at this very moment, its a little more saddening than exciting.

when i left my college life behind 3 years ago it was ok because i was ready to check out and move on. it wasnt necessarily leave my college friends behind but more of leaving that lifestyle behind and pursue more grown up things i suppose…be more serious about life and still have fun. i feel quite sad everytime i think about the fact that i must leave davis soon because im not ready to leave my church and my current friends here yet. i feel like this chapter of my life hasnt been fully written yet. but alas god has his plans and perhaps he sees fit to move me on. and if thats the case, well then i should be satisfied. who knows, maybe for some strange reason ill be back here.

i hate davis as a town, but i love my friends. so whenever i speak of “davis” im really referring to my friends and not the place.

ill be attending the California College of the Arts. it has actually been one of my dreams to be able to go to grad school for graphic design and heres the chance. who knows where ill be after that…who knows if ill make it through ($60k for 2 years? holy cow!).

i get emo at times, thats no lie =P.
