Name

Should I change the name of this blog that only I follow to: Fotos Taken While ...? I've been taking a lot more photos than eating at food trucks. Although, don't worry, I'm still eating a lot.

I have my sights set on a photographer that I would like to offer my serves to. I want to be an assistant, for free, when I have time. This photographer and I have mutual friends on facebook (real friends not unknown facebook friends). It would be mutually beneficial as the photog would get a slave and I would get to learn while working at a shoot. The photog does a lot of portrait and set shots. I am more into capturing a moment and not setting something up. But I know I would learn if my offer is accepted.

I was thinking the other day about photography. About how I am currently into shooting telephone poles, wires, palm trees and clouds. I love that stuff. For some reason I thought it was funny that if I had to describe my interests for a fake upcoming show, I could do it pretentiously and say: I love the juxtaposition of nature and industry, how they are forced to live together in the same space and time. When really, I just like palm trees and power lines.

Anyway, another blog for myself, that I have no interest in sharing.

I have no business doing a blog. I am a sloppy typist. I regularly have typos in everything I type. I rarely catch the typos, in fact, I rarely proof read.

I was going to start this blog as a food truck diary ... Food Truck World or Food Truck Weekly, I forgot now. but that's where the FTW comes from.

Now I'm thinking about posting photographs here, but I have a flickr page where people can view any photos and franky, I'm not that proud of my photos yet, so I'm not sure they are ready to be viewed.

Photo-wise, I've been more successful with my iphone than my Nikon. i love the images I've captured with my iPhone. Seriously.
