Gomez Photography blog update.

Well , I'm not the best at updating my blog . It seems that there is always so much to do in the day and I just don't get around to it or have anything to write about. I also just have to make this a habit.

Today I worked on my computer all day. I have taken everything off and reinstalled all my applications. Its a time consuming project. The sad thing is, i still cannot get some of my Photoshop plugins to work on CS4.

I talked to a few other photographers about a Nashville co-op studio today. It seems like this project can be a reality. Im still looking for the perfect place. Im also waiting for the Holidays to pass so I can spend more time on it.

Some times we forget where we come from or how we got here. We forget about the ones who helped kick down doors for us. Where are they now? What would they tell you to do next? The one who gives more, has more. Share your talents, share your time, share who you are. We can discover our true self and purpose by the reflection we see in the many lives we encounter.

Talk Radio

My wife was just on the Phil Valentine Show talking to Phil about nutrition and diet.

you can see her web site at www.thewellnourishedmom.com . Proud of her! Go Trish! You can hear her interview at http://galleries.gomezphotography.com/phil_valentine_show.mp3

I did his book cover a few years back. He is a good guy , but I don't like to listen to all that political talk radio poop any more. Its just too negative for me. Stirs up hate and polarized info.

It's just like every group. They all want to be right. So they talk and gripe among themselves to feel that they are supported in their "right" ways and press 6 the "heathen" button to reject the others with a different opinion. You should not condemn unless you have a real solution. There is no real solution , because everyone is different and deservers to do what works for them excluding imposing themselves on others. ahhhhh, now thats the key. Well , I dont have the answers for you because Im still trying to figure the answers out for myself. That is a hard enough task.

Buddies

See top of blog. Deep thoughts time.

Have you ever walked into a totally dark room that you have never been in before and just knew that there was a light switch in there somewhere. The room is full of all sorts of crap that you have to step over and trip on to finally find the light switch. When you finally find it , you have stepped out of the room to get a break from the darkness and the unknown . You say OH ! YEH! Cauze you found out the switch was on outside of the door just before you went in. You just assumed it was on the inside of the room and to the right where most switches are found. Well that happened to me this past week but it was all in my head. I found the switch and the light is back on. I stepped into a dark place in my mind, and became angry at God. I was not really angry at "God", I was angry at the god that everyone else wants me to believe in. I don't know that god, the only God I know is the one that I have discovered for myself and come to believe in. Guess thats is why they call it a personal relationship. No matter how hard people try to explain what God means to them, one may never fully understand what the others really feel or what they are talking about. The only God you will ever know is the one you find inside yourself. So if you are angry at the god every one wants you to believe in and tells you about, you are just swinging in the dark and at something that is not there. You only know what you have come to experience about God and that will have to be good enough for everyone else. If you discover this truth , then you will discover that God then dwells in you. Yes, you are part of God and God you. Where does your brain end and your mind begin? Find the switch and discover for yourself the divine that you possess. Thank you Kyle Wyley for being a Buddy

Working in my undies today.

Well maybe that sounds a bit TMI but I have a ton of Photoshop Retouches to do and office work. Maybe at the end of the day Ill make it in to Nashville and organize Studio Daylight a bit. It's funny ya know. Photographer Norman Jean Roy named the studio when he worked out of Nashville. He gave it to me when he left and took off like a rocket to fame and fortune. The name stuck. Studio Daylight is for sure one of Nashville great photo studios. Great natural light. Some of the best Nashville photographers have worked out of Studio Daylight over the years. Many out of town photographers too. Back to the retouches. Here is a photo of me next to a portrait I did of the 2009 World Grand Champion Walking Horse El Nino.I had to make 7 giant prints to hang up all over Tennessee. There is one hanging at the State Capitol Builing in Downtown Nashville. Chromatics did a great
Job on the printing. This was the day we hung it up for display at TWHBEA. I hope I can take the portrait again this year.


photo taken by my bud Shawn Davie a very talented and up coming photographer and world travler.

Website blog

Way cool just learned how to link my sitewelder website to my blog page. They said it could not be done. I should have been a genius. But I'll just have to stay a goof ball instead.

Another first time blog from iPhone

I can't wait to get the new iPhone and post some cool pics from the new camera and video. Blog is such a funny word for this. I'll test an image from my iPhone right now. Second hand better not. Still naked in bed.
I have a lot of computer work to catch up on today. This is good since I'm sore from all the yard work this weekend. Dang it was a hot one! Maybe Al Gore is right. That was hard for me to say.

Check out my friends Nathan Lee and Kyle Wiley at 12th and Porter July 5th. Help get some water to thousands of thirsty Africans. And I thought I was thirsty this weekend.
