Best Jobs in America infographic

I enjoy my work, and I’d like to think I have one of the best jobs in the world.  I was glad to see my job on this list.  This is an interesting infographic by FOCUS.  Take a look (by clicking on the graphic) and see where your job fits in, is it time for a job change?  This infographic was compiled by FOCUS using data from CNN.

I appreciate photography, videography, snowboarding, and living in the moment.
This is a video I discovered on Vimeo.com by Troy Costa, who embraces all of these elements.
The way he filmed it is absolutely beautiful using a Canon 7d and Opteka 6.5mm fisheye.
I aspire to shoot film this beautiful.

I’ve begun taking pictures of things I see that to me seem as though they may be off brand.  I’ll explain my reasoning and share with you the picture, and then I’ll let you be the judge.  I was in a discount retailer and saw this hat.  It’s a Mets hat, and I found myself wondering what does colorful spray dots have to do with the Mets?  Maybe I am missing something, but when I see these colorful spray dots I immediately start thinking Krylon Spray paint.

On a Krylon spray can, this would make sense, as in the real life example below.  However, for the Mets hat – I think I must be missing something?

I was washing dishes and then I turned away for a second,
and before I knew it my son (Haven) climbed into the dishwasher.
Like any good parent, instead of pulling him out immediately
I reached for the camera and snapped a photo.  I love
being a father and feel extremely lucky to have a son that
makes me smile everyday and a wife that helps me keep together
a currently stretched (work, school, baby) lifestyle.

Hanging with the bear at Stratton Vermont

This past weekend was pretty amazing, I finally had a chance to ride with my bros at Stern.  We got to dip into some pretty fun stuff at Stratton and I randomly ran into David, Derrick, & Deidre.  Not only was that cool, but I got to catch Colin for a minute, because he’s a snowboard instructor up at Stratton now.   All and all awesome weekend, just wish it didn’t have to be so short.  Here’s my favorite pic of the trip – yeah the riding is always great, but it’s the friendships on the journey that matter.
