A New Year

>> Wednesday, January 16, 2013

17 days into the new year, and I've decided to visit this abandoned hovel of mine, my little piece of land (rented of course) on this vast expanse of the world wide web.


My last post was over a year and a half ago... and a lot has happened. Nothing that new/drastic, but still, a lot non-the-less.

I did another contract with Princess Cruises, this time on the Star Princess, in Alaska again... As my luck would have it, the Star had not been back to Alaska in 4 years, and of course I was assigned to it on its return voyage. What I did not expect was that it would be replacing the Sapphire (my first ship), and thus doing the exact same itinerary it was doing last season. So I got to see all the same places on exactly the same days as my last contract... At least I knew where all the good places to eat were this time round...

On the plus side, I met someone amazing... she's amazingly strong willed, determined, beautiful, talented, loveable... perfect. She made the contract all the more bearable, and I won't mind doing a few more contracts with Princess if she doesn't mind tagging along with me...

Anyway, we're scheduled to go back to Sapphire (Alaska again...), so we're mentally preparing ourselves for that.

I don't know how much use it is now to keep this blog running, I'm seriously considering starting a new one fresh and proper this time, with perhaps a better focus on my creative pursuits - maybe just keep this one for personal crap.

Entered the World Nomads photographer competition - first time I've submitted photographs of mine that I've seriosuly had to think about when selecting, check out my entry here.

I'll just finish this post with a link to some awesome videos shot with macro lenses - seriously check it out and get inspired! -> http://www.premiumbeat.com/blog/macro-videography-photography/
