When did we get like this?....

  I have noticed more and more as I talk to others or I should say try to talk to others. We become so unable to give our own thoughts and opinions on anything that is a direct question to us. I find people will offer everything possible to a general posting on social media but if you specifically direct it to a person to get their opinion, they refuse to answer. Or even worse you ask one specific person and others will answer you instead. The purpose of thinking that you should fear what you say on social media or to other people is just nuts. It is like almost all people now are acting like a politician never able to just answer something that is asked to them. Add to that what seems to be the inability to even openly communicate. It is like the more avenues that are made for us to easily communicate with each other via e-mail, chat, social media apps. The less we want to really communicate and talk. I do not think that our society understands just how bad this is damaging to us ...

Finding Purpose....

Image
So many people out there will say that for you to find your purpose in life is to seek out religion on some level, to this I say that is bullshit. Been trying to meet new people as well but it is not that easy. People now just seem to be so against any manner of in-person interactions. You could ask like 10 random people out to a lunch and maybe 1 of them will say yes. Having grown up in a time when everyone only ever met in person or you never met at all it is tough to live like this where nobody wants to be connected with you in person. Temps are climbing super high so being indoors will be helpful to remain cooler for sure. And even the attempts to engage with others is becoming more and more difficult as we are now beginning to even reject the idea of technology aiding us in communication, socialization. I will never ever support the notion that you can't mix business with pleasure. And to clarify this I am saying that if you make a connection or some friendship even a small on...

Camera Reviews....

Image
  So the more and more I view various videos on YouTube about what people think about various camera models out there. The less I see them using them as a photography camera. It is more and more about what it can do for video. It is in nature first a camera and will be no matter what is it used for. I wish that those who make these videos could understand this idea. That many of us who are seeking to purchase an upgrade to a camera are doing so to get it as a camera and not a filmmaker tool. I want to know more about how it does as a camera and not if it has 24FPS for video. I have a Canon t7 which is in reality an ancient camera. But when I look at videos for a Canon 90D which is not new but typically a camera that is 6x better than the t7. Everything posted about it is focused on how it does as a video camera. I guess I really wish those out there who do these videos understood most people only want to know how it performs as a camera for photography.

Drained...

Image
  For a while now things are just becoming more and more exhausting. Not just physically but more on the emotional, mental side of it all. I feel often that anything or anytime I need to make some manner of change in life. It is met with resistance from others. I have never been one to tell anyone no when they bring up something they feel they should or need to do. If it will make them happy or feel better about themselves. But when I do it and I need to do something to make myself feel like what I do has a reason or purpose it is usually met with, "let's wait until..." If you have anyone in your life who is ever not themselves, feeling like they are not happy. And they ever say anything about wanting to make a change, you let them do it. Do not give excuses why they should not. This person is usually feeling alone and secluded from life. And any attempt made to reverse that feeling needs to be encouraged and not stomped on until it suits someone else's needs. I have ...

Entitled..

  I have noticed more and more in general terms that people are becoming more and more entitled. Does not matter what it is they will go right to bashing a business, person if they do not get what they want right away. Anytime lately when I browse the reviews for a business or a car dealership. All the ones that are super negative are all over issues that are minor and over reacted to. Like if a person goes to a dealer to view a vehicle only to find out it has been sold and they did not have enough time to go online and remove it from the site. That person then will write a massive review saying they are the biggest con artists, etc. Then you have the person with horrible credit and no down payment will rip them for not letting them just drive off the lot with it. I feel like more and more as a society we are all just assuming everything is just owed to us for existing. Often times if I want something or go to find something and it is not able to be, then I am like well that sucks....

Subaru....

Image
  So a few years ago I got my first Subaru after what I felt to be an on and off desire to own one. Not due to the idea that they could last long or anything. For me it was more the name alone Subaru Forester as someone who moderately loved the outdoors I felt like that was my future outdoor adventure mobile. Once I got it, I found out well it was just like all other cars, just another one. Do not get me wrong it is something I do love to own and hope to keep for a long time with some small minor adjustments to it. If I could do it well with random extra funding I would give mine a roof rack to carry gear, off road style wheels and tires and if I went overboard maybe a small suspension lift like no more than 3 inches. I know there is some manner of image that Subaru has when it comes to who owns them, often times I hear that they think they are made for lesbian women, the manly type. I just see those who own them as people who admire and want to conserve the outdoors and nature. Su...

Photography....

Image
  I feel that my interest in photography began when I was much younger. One of my passions and hobbies is photography. I will often include images on here that I have taken on various vacations or outside adventures I have been on. I have somewhat in a small way always had something inside of me that enjoyed using a camera. I remember being a teenager or even younger than that during a field trip in school to a local Medieval Times event. I was the only one there among my classmates with a big camera hanging around my neck which sadly often were met with pointing and ridicule from classmates who thought it was dorky to have such a big camera. While I did not really care or know how to use it I still took pictures the best I could at the time. Many years later when I was able to buy my own camera and equipment I chose to do it and I got hooked again on it. I find my most passion with the images I take our those of nature scenes. Anything to do with the land, mountains, animals...
