Tragedy

So, Baja California was nice. The vacation factor was there and i enjoyed it to the best of my ability.I ate good and drank good and met some super nice "just married" couples and senior citizens who thought i got left at the alter since i was there by myself.I took the bus back and forth from cabo san jose to cabo san lucas a few days out of the week since they are about 20 minutes apart and got off a few decent shots.I don't think that the reason i went there actually helped at all ..knowing that the only way thats gonna happen is though time and not by taking some expensive trip to mexico.

here are some mixed digital/film from my olympus and holga 35mm

Tiempo cura

Cuando amas a alguien más que la luna y las estrellas
  Es imposible dejar pasar.
I lucha con mi corazón cada día más de cómo me siento y lo que sé.

Este amor que he no desaparecerá y, sin embargo, ya está pasado de mi vida.
Nunca antes me sentí de esta manera acerca de una sola persona y espero que un día alguien se siente de esta manera acerca de mí.

Mi corazón estaba en el lugar equivocado en el momento equivocado.

¿Por qué debo estar dejando a un hermoso lugar sin ella a mi lado.

Me perdí su

Hopefully this time away from things helps

till then

I against I

I find it true in life that when we are faced with these heartbreaking situations and these gut wrenching experiences , we as humans tend rise to the occasion and excel in our dreams and love.

It's hard going thru the tough times but, in the end man o man is it worth it!

here are a few taken recently while bouncing from bart to bart over the weekend.

I'm almost finished packin for my trip tommorrow.

It's gonna be epic!

even though i might miss the first couple of rains here in months (i love the rain)

peace

Tell them

To the many photographers i know out there from Mumbai India to DOM France , from Tokyo Japan to The Netherlands and those from right here in the U.S.A reppin grounds from Philly to Kentucky , Texas to Colorado right back to the boogie down Bronx , i wanted to give my thanks to all ya'll for not only supporting me and my passion but , inspiring me with your art as well.

All of our work is so unique in every way and that's what makes us all so unique as photographers and how we capture our world.

I hope that no matter what may happen in our lives the love of the capture never fades and we all continue to inspire and motivate each other for many days to come.

 

We are all so blessed

sleep well

much love,

Barefoot

"We are only as good as the people that we associate ourselves with"- jjc


that might have been said by someone else more prolific than john coyne and thats ok cause i have no record of it comming from some book or great speech or Nobel peace prize winner, either way i believe it to be true and am thankful that tonight i have decided to spend some time with the best company i could ask for....myself!

I have been working very hard this past week and studied even harder and even though i have eliminated alcohol from my diet very recently, Tonight i mos definitely deserve a bottle of my favorite peenot greegeo along side some terrific pasta and beats by Nicolay.

i'll leave you all tonight with a few snaps taken more than 2 years ago when everything in the bay was so new to me and love was something only in my dreams.

Don't ever let fear get in your way of your dreams...as long as you believe you can do anything!

till then

love,
